This week, renowned professor of psychology and neuroscience Charan Ranganath, Ph.D. joins Lindsey to unravel the intricacies of our memory. With shocking insights from his new book, “Why We Remember,” Charan shows us that our brains aren't designed to retain everything but rather to preserve what truly impacts our journey through life.

Charan + Lindsey uncover the societal and spiritual factors associated with the increasing incidence of Alzheimer's and other neurological diseases. Plus, find out how subtle lifestyle shifts like practicing mindfulness, embracing novelty, and leaning into curiosity can improve our memory. 

Get ready to challenge your beliefs about your mind, trauma, and depression, as Charan takes us through the science of why we think and feel the way we do. Spoiler – memory actually has the power to make us happy, if we learn to use it to our advantage. 

We also talk about:

• Why grade-focused education stunts our growth
• The benefits of aerobic exercise for brain health
• The influence of inflammation on the brain
• How memories change when they’re shared
• The effect of stress on memory
• Why sensory stimulation is so healthy
• How to naturally energize the brain
• Error-driven learning + memory retention

Ellie tells the miraculous story of her journey starting Gentle Barn, which began when she was just seven years old.

You might know Sara Kuburic as the Millennial Therapist on Instagram, where she shares insanely relatable advice about navigating the human experience with her 1.6 million followers. Sara’s new book, It’s On Me, encourages us to get to know ourselves fully and take responsibility for our lives. 

In this episode, Sara opens up to Krista about her struggles with panic attacks and a dissociation from her body – a deep state of suffering that eventually led her to a life of authenticity. When we ignore the signs our body sends us, we ignore the parts of ourselves that are longing to be seen, nurtured, and healed. 

Sara talks us through her journey of accepting her highly sensitive nature and beginning to connect the dots between what she was feeling in her body and the parts of her life that required change. She empowers us to tune out the noise of everyday life, tune into our own beings, and ask ourselves, ‘who am I really?’ to find true peace and freedom within. 

We also talk about:

• Why searching for purpose can be painful
• Healing abusive relationships with our bodies
• Acknowledging your suffering
• Authenticity vs. self loss
• The ups and downs of discovering yourself
• Why self awareness is the ultimate self care 
• Why we must engage with life fully
