On this episode of the podcast we change things up a little bit… Tierra Pennser hosts her first episode of This is Your Brain on Podcasts and she sits down to have a conversation with all around good guy Tim Ocampo. The two of them have a great conversation that covers a wide variety of diverse subject matter including: prioritizing your mental health, the stresses involved with changing career paths, the never ending pursuit of knowledge, why you should be watching Star Trek and the impacts it has had on society, the difficulties that actually being able to communicate telepathically would present, the real life technology that has been birthed from science fiction, the rapid technological change that has taken place in the last couple generations, the benifits of flexing your imagination every once in a while,exploring aspects of your personality through a game like Dungeons & Dragons, the bonds of friendship formed through paintball battles, surrounding yourself with healthy people and setting personal boundaries, holding emotional space for yourself and others, and much more.
