Description

In this episode of AGE BETTER, I sit down with Dr. Mike Studer—one of the world’s leading neuroplasticity experts and author of The Brain That Chooses Itself—to talk about something every woman in midlife needs to hear: your brain is far more adaptable than you’ve ever been told. We dig into what it really means to “choose” your health, why personal values amplify every wellness practice, and how the science of dopamine and reward pathways shapes the decisions we make every single day. Mike breaks down the overwhelming flood of health information we’re all navigating and shares how to cut through the noise by grounding your choices in what matters most to you. This is a conversation about clarity, empowerment, and understanding the brain science behind everyday decisions—so you can age better, starting now. Takeaways We are inundated with health and wellness information—and it’s not always helpful. Understanding choice is foundational to effective healthcare. Personal beliefs and values amplify the impact of health practices. Dopamine plays a powerful role in decision-making and motivation. The brain’s reward pathways guide our habits more than we realize. Clear values help cut through information overload. Scientific principles can strengthen your health decisions. Effective healthcare begins with aligning choices to your priorities. Health regulations and recommendations can be overwhelming—so knowing your values matters. Prioritizing choice and values leads to more meaningful, sustainable wellness.
