Sometimes the best ideas come when you least expect them - like in pajamas on a mental health day with zero guilt attached.  That’s right Thrivesters, today I’m sharing why pressing pause matters AND how bestselling neuroscientist Lisa Genova’s work is reshaping the way we think about brain health.

Spoiler:  Think about sleep like your life depends on it - because it does.

From Still Alice to her newest novel Still More or Less Maddie, Lisa uses fiction to help us understand the science of memory, Alzheimer’s, and mental health.   Today, thrivesters we are running with it and  talking about how our everyday choices can literally changethe trajectory of our brains.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

• Seven surprisingly simple lifestyle habits that can cut your Alzheimer’s risk nearly in half.
• The real magic of deep sleep - and why it’s like a nightly brain power wash cycle.
• My personal wind-down routine (and the one change that was a total game-changer).
• Fun, quirky hacks - like bedside dry-erase boards - for capturing midnight inspiration without losing too much precious sleep.

This isn’t just theory Thrivesters, it’s real life stories backed by science to prove what we already know here in the Hive… how you live impacts EVERYTHING.

Now go out there and thrive like you mean it. (After a good night's sleep that is...)
