This week on A Voice and Beyond, we introduce you to Dr. Romie Mushtaq, a distinguished neurologist and creator of the brainSHIFT Protocol. She is a leading authority in stress management and leadership wellness, and her recently released book, *The Busy Brain Cure: The Eight-Week Plan to Find Focus, Tame Anxiety, and Sleep Again*, is already making waves. Dr. Romie is also a highly sought-after speaker, and her work has been featured in outlets such as Forbes, NBC, and TEDx.

In this episode, Dr. Romie tackles the pressing issue of "Busy Brain" syndrome and the dangerous glorification of stress and burnout, which have far-reaching consequences for all of us. This crisis affects productivity, performance, and mental well-being, and it robs us of countless hours of vital sleep.

With the world still grappling with the aftermath of a pandemic, stress levels are at an all-time high. "Busy Brain" syndrome is a crisis with far-reaching effects, and Dr. Romie shares some solutions from her ground-breaking book, The Busy BrainCure. During the episode, I share that I completed the Busy Brain protocol, and not surprisingly, the results came back saying that I had brain strain. Thankfully, Dr. Romie talked me through some of the options available to help me.

I love that Dr. Romie’s expertise is not just academic; it's practical, actionable, and urgently needed in today's high-stress work environments. Whatever you do, be sure to go and listen to this insightful and very important conversation with Dr. Romie Mushtaq.
