Have you ever wondered what your brain chooses to pay attention to and why? In today’s episode, JJ interviews Double Board Certified Psychiatrist, Founder of Amen Clinics, and 12x New York Times best-selling author, Dr. Daniel Amen, about the inner psychological dragons we all have. And that unless you recognize and deal with these dragons, they can steal your happiness, spoil your relationships, and sabotage your health. In Dr. Amen’s new book, Your Brain Is Always Listening; he equips you with powerful weapons to battle the inner dragons that are breathing fire on your brain, driving unhealthy behaviors, and robbing you of joy and contentment.
