In this captivating episode on the power of human connection and its impact on our brains. Dr. Mark Williams, an award-winning author and cognitive neuroscience professor, sheds light on the concerning effects of technology on mental health, well-being, and relationships.

 Dr. Williams discusses the addictive nature of devices, how they rob us of our brain's full potential, and even increase the risk of early-onset Alzheimer's and dementia. He emphasizes the importance of monitoring children's device usage and shares a unique family approach to managing screen time. The episode also explores the significance of face-to-face interaction, which activates more parts of the brain and fosters trust and openness through the release of oxytocin, the "love hormone."
