#135 - The Iron Brain

In this episode, we break down why your brain isn’t broken—it’s just been trained the wrong way. You’ll learn how neuroplasticity lets you rewire negative thought loops and build a calmer, stronger mind over time. From the wild true story of Phineas Gage to the snow-path analogy to daily gratitude reps, this episode shows how repetition shapes who you become. The big takeaway? Your brain is moldable, and what you repeat is what you become.
