Brandi Wigley and Magan Hendry dive deep into a topic that hits close to home for many moms: the dopamine mom cycle. Inspired by the book Dopamine Nation by Dr. Anna Lembke, they explore the intricate balance between pleasure and pain, and how it manifests in our daily lives, especially as moms. Discover how our brains seek equilibrium, the pitfalls of chasing quick dopamine hits, and the strategies you can employ to reset this balance for a more fulfilling and controlled life. From workouts and intermittent fasting to meal prepping and fostering restorative habits, Magan and Brandi share practical advice and relatable stories. Whether you're struggling with "mom brain," ADHD, or just looking for ways to better manage your day-to-day, this episode is packed with insights and encouragement.
