In this episode of Thrive and Aligned Healing, Dr. Carmen Jones and Time Hacker Coach Kim Jarman continue the neurotransmitter series with a deep dive into serotonin—often called the confidence molecule.

We explore how serotonin influences far more than mood, from rejection sensitivity and self-esteem to sleep patterns, digestion, hormone cycles, and even pain perception. Dr. Carmen explains why both too little and too much serotonin can cause challenges like anxiety, IBS, obsessive thoughts, or disrupted sleep—and why balance is key.

You’ll learn:

The connection between serotonin, confidence, and resilience

How serotonin impacts circadian rhythm, gut health, and hormones

Why pharmaceuticals like SSRIs are used for depression, pain, and more

Root causes of serotonin imbalance, from nutrient deficiencies and genetics to environmental toxins

Foods rich in tryptophan and serotonin to naturally support balance

This episode offers a root-cause perspective on serotonin, helping you understand how to nurture your body’s natural pathways, support resilience, and restore balance in both mind and body.
