  • Neuroscience Weekly: 5 Facts You Didn't Know About Your Brain

    ✨ I’m excited to announce a new series on the podcast: Neuroscience Weekly! 🧠 Each week, I’ll be sharing fun, fascinating, and easy-to-understand facts about the brain and psychology.

    In this first episode, I’m breaking down some cool basics, like:

    • Why you’re born with around 100 billion neurons (and why they don’t just keep multiplying).

    • How the cerebrum helps you make decisions, think, and learn.

    • The three types of neurons you use every day without realizing it.

    • What the cerebral cortex really does and why it’s wrinkly.

    • Why your left brain controls your right side (and vice versa!).

    If you’ve ever been curious about how your brain actually works, this is the perfect place to start. Follow me on instagram @itsateensworldpodcast for more daily inspiration 💚
