Hi, I'm Otto. Welcome to Erin Sarah's podcast.

Okay, today we are joined by Dr. Caroline Leif. You guys, she's a clinical neuroscientist

and communication pathologist who specializes in the mind, brain, and body connection. Okay, she

give us so much insight into how humans function. We talked about how social media impacts our brain

and mental health, how we can work to rewire our brains, how to deal with intrusive thoughts,

and really so much more. I didn't know what to expect going to this conversation, because

you know, it's a they're heavy topics, but this conversation was surprisingly light.

And I don't know, I think you're going to really walk away just having tools to implement change.

So enjoy this episode.

Hi. Hello. How are you doing? Good. How are you? What a beauty you are. I mean,

that's skin. Oh, that's very kind of you, but you both on bed yourself. Beautiful.

We we're not very put together right now. I've got wet hair. I just try to pull it back for you,

So nice to meet you too. So why don't you give us, um, and give our listeners a little bit

about your background and sort of how you got into studying the brain and like what you do?

Absolutely. Well, I've been in the field for nearly 40 years, so that maybe ages need to

be in the field of a long time. And it's been, I'm a clinical neuroscientist and

communication pathologist and audiologist. And I've specialised in the field of psycho neurobiology.

So what all of that means is that I've looked at the how what the difference between the mind,

brain and body and how they connected and how thoughts form and what is a thought and what are

memories and what are emotions and, you know, what is mental health. And then I worked a

largely in my practice for at work for after don't practice any more practice for 25 years.
