The 4 Chemicals Secretly Controlling Your Motivation and Mood


Listen Later

Did you know four brain chemicals secretly control your motivation, mood, and mental energy every single day?

In this episode, Jim sits down with neuroscientist and bestselling author TJ Power to break down the DOSE Effect. It is a science backed framework for activating the four key neurochemicals that shape your daily experience: Dopamine, Oxytocin, Serotonin, and Endorphins.

TJ shares how our modern digital lifestyles are draining these natural feel good chemicals and how you can rebalance them through small, evidence based habits. You will learn the difference between natural and artificial dopamine, how to boost oxytocin through real human connection, the serotonin and sunlight link that stabilizes your mood, and the surprising power of endorphins to calm stress.

You will also hear why technology is hijacking your motivation system, how to design your environment to protect your brain, and a simple daily ritual to reset your chemistry in under five minutes.

By the end, you will have a clear roadmap to upgrade your focus, energy, and emotional balance without relying on caffeine, willpower, or scrolling.
