Feeling like your brain’s in a blender? You’re not alone—and there is a way out. This week, JVN is joined by Dr. Caroline Leaf: cognitive neuroscientist, mental health expert, and bestselling author of Help in a Hurry, her game-changing guide to navigating stress and emotional chaos when life hits the fan. Together, they dive into what’s actually going on in your brain when you're overwhelmed, the science behind how thoughts can make or break your day, and how quick, simple tools—like mental check-ins, breathwork, and reframing—can help you regulate your nervous system fast. Dr. Leaf shares why stress isn’t your enemy, how therapy and neuroscience can work hand-in-hand, and why taking an “insurance policy” for your mind might be the most powerful thing you can do for yourself.
