Sober Powered: The Neuroscience of Being Sober

E316: The Hidden Pattern Behind Productivity, Procrastination, and People Pleasing


Listen Later

After getting sober many of us notice we go harder on scrolling, being productive, or people pleasing. In this episode, I want to walk you through how these behaviors are actually serving the same purpose, where they come from, what they’re doing in your brain, and why they can keep you feeling stuck even when it looks like you’re doing everything right.
