Introducing Neuroscientist: How To Hack Your Dopamine To Boost Your Mood, Energy, and Focus from The School of Greatness.

Follow the show: The School of Greatness

I'm going on tour! Come see The School of Greatness LIVE in person!

Get my new book Make Money Easy here!

Prepare to completely rethink your relationship with technology as neuroscientist TJ Power reveals the shocking truth about what's happening to our brains in the digital age. Drawing from his groundbreaking research and personal struggle with addiction, TJ explains how our modern environment is creating an epidemic of dopamine dysfunction that's sabotaging our ability to focus, feel joy, and connect meaningfully with others. The conversation explores the fascinating evolutionary mismatch between our hunter-gatherer brains and our modern digital environment, with TJ offering a compelling reframe of ADHD as a potential superpower when properly channeled. Whether you're fighting distractions, battling mood swings, or simply feeling numb despite constant stimulation, this episode delivers practical, science-backed strategies to reclaim your focus, energy, and capacity for genuine happiness through what TJ calls "The Dose Effect" – a revolutionary approach to balancing your brain's essential neurochemicals.

Buy TJ’s Book The Dose Effect

In this episode you will learn:

• Why constantly checking your phone (140-170 times daily for most people) is more damaging to your brain than alcohol or other addictions
• The counterintuitive reason people with ADHD often become exceptional performers when they find their passion
• How implementing strategic "phone fasts" and scheduled social media times can dramatically improve your mood and focus
• Why "quick dopamine" activities like scrolling and porn create numbness while "slow dopamine" activities create fulfillment
• The essential morning routine practice that ancient hunter-gatherers naturally did that modern humans desperately need
• How pursuing oxytocin (connection) rather than dopamine (pleasure) leads to deeper life satisfaction and meaning
• Why disciplined boundaries around technology actually create greater freedom rather than restriction

You're probably not seeing the world for what it really is. Your beliefs about truth, politics, and even chaos itself are all being challenged by the way information is being disseminated today.

Shane is someone who's pushed boundaries in media and has witnessed first-hand the complexity of a world that’s increasingly becoming post-truth. He's a man who’s not afraid to ask the tough questions about politics, media, and the intricate latticework of truths and lies. Buckle up, because today's episode is going to take you on a deep dive into the gritty reality that shapes the narratives we believe in.

Introducing The Mutant (PODCAST EXCLUSIVE EPISODE) from MrBallen Podcast: Strange, Dark & Mysterious Stories.

Follow the show: MrBallen Podcast: Strange, Dark & Mysterious Stories

On a day in 2001, a veteran homicide detective put on his gloves and stepped into a cluttered bedroom. He’d been working a murder case for months, but he still had no clear evidence pointing to any of his suspects. But a tip from an informant had led him to this bedroom, and he hoped he would find something useful. The detective searched the room, but nothing stood out to him amidst the mess – until he saw a piece of notebook paper sitting on a nightstand. On the paper was someone’s list of goals they wanted to accomplish in life. The detective scanned the list. Most of the goals on the list were pretty standard stuff, but one goal immediately jumped out at the detective. Because one of the things on the list the writer wanted to achieve was to “Kill somebody and get away with it.”
