In this powerful re-release, Angela sits down with neuroscientist and author TJ Power to explore The Dose Effect—his revolutionary framework for recalibrating your brain’s chemistry using four key neurochemicals: dopamine, oxytocin, serotonin, and endorphins (aka DOSE). This conversation feels more relevant than ever, especially in light of new research showing that just two weeks offline can reverse a decade of age-related cognitive decline.
TJ opens up about his personal journey through grief, addiction, and distraction—and how rebalancing his brain chemistry transformed his life. You’ll walk away with tangible, science-backed tools to regulate your mind, reset your focus, build confidence, and deepen your connection to yourself and others… starting with how you spend the first 5 minutes of your day.
