How Your Brain Sabotages You (And How to Take It Back) | Dr. Kyra Bobinet Pt. 2

Description:

In Part 2 of our electrifying two-part series with Harvard-trained physician and behavior change rebel Dr. Kyra Bobinet, we dive deeper into the hidden architecture of self-sabotage. This is where elite insight meets raw truth. .

If you've ever wondered why you can't stop doing the very thing you know is harming you—despite your intelligence, willpower, or success—this episode will blow your mind.

.

Dr. Bobinet reveals how a tiny but mighty structure in your brain—the habenula—acts as a kill switch for motivation and joy. We explore:

.

  • 🔥 The real neuroscience behind addiction, procrastination, and emotional pain

  •  
  • 🧠 Why dopamine isn't the full picture—and the "anti-reward system" that rules your stuckness

  •  
  • 💡 How shrinking your habenula makes you lose behavioral control—and how to reverse it

  • .
  • 🧩 Why loneliness is fueling mass addiction, anxiety, and emotional eating

  •  
  • 🧬 Iterative Mindset: The groundbreaking psychological tool more powerful than grit, growth mindset, or willpower

  •  
  • 🤝 Why community, not self-reliance, is the real solution—and how to reclaim it post-pandemic

  •  
  • ⚠️ How politics, polarization, and social media feed the very systems that destroy clarity and collective sanity

  •  
  • 💥 Why resisting your emotional pain is keeping you stuck—and how to finally break the cycle

  •  

This isn’t surface-level self-help. This is applied neuroscience that could rewire your future.

Dr. Bobinet’s new book Unstoppable Brain is more than just a neuroscience manual. It’s a spiritual, cultural, and psychological awakening.

🧭 Serious thinkers sharpen their edge here. Don’t just upgrade your habits—evolve your species-level operating system.
