Prepare to completely rethink your relationship with technology as neuroscientist TJ Power reveals the shocking truth about what's happening to our brains in the digital age. Drawing from his groundbreaking research and personal struggle with addiction, TJ explains how our modern environment is creating an epidemic of dopamine dysfunction that's sabotaging our ability to focus, feel joy, and connect meaningfully with others. The conversation explores the fascinating evolutionary mismatch between our hunter-gatherer brains and our modern digital environment, with TJ offering a compelling reframe of ADHD as a potential superpower when properly channeled. Whether you're fighting distractions, battling mood swings, or simply feeling numb despite constant stimulation, this episode delivers practical, science-backed strategies to reclaim your focus, energy, and capacity for genuine happiness through what TJ calls "The Dose Effect" – a revolutionary approach to balancing your brain's essential neurochemicals.

In this episode you will learn:

  • Why constantly checking your phone (140-170 times daily for most people) is more damaging to your brain than alcohol or other addictions
  • The counterintuitive reason people with ADHD often become exceptional performers when they find their passion
  • How implementing strategic "phone fasts" and scheduled social media times can dramatically improve your mood and focus
  • Why "quick dopamine" activities like scrolling and porn create numbness while "slow dopamine" activities create fulfillment
  • The essential morning routine practice that ancient hunter-gatherers naturally did that modern humans desperately need
  • How pursuing oxytocin (connection) rather than dopamine (pleasure) leads to deeper life satisfaction and meaning
  • Why disciplined boundaries around technology actually create greater freedom rather than restriction
