Can we train our brains like we train our bodies? How does technology impact our cognitive abilities, and what can we do to future-proof our minds for lifelong learning and resilience? In this insightful episode of Mind Over Matter, host Anya sits down with Arnold Beekes—a visionary who has spent 20 years in tech, 20 years in psychology, and is now dedicating the next 20 years to brain fitness.
