l loved this conversation with Ben Rein - Ben Rein, PhD is an award-winning neuroscientist, Adjunct Lecturer at Stanford University, Clinical Assistant Professor at SUNNEY Buffalo, and Chief Science Officer of the Mind Science Foundation. Ben has published over 20 peer-reviewed papers studying the neuroscience of social behavior and is the author of new book Why Brains Need Friends: The Neuroscience of Social Connection.
In this episode, we explore why connection and friendship matter - and the neuroscience that proves it. Our bodies are actually rewarded when we're with others, while isolation triggers a stress response. Face-to-face connection isn't optional; it's essential. Ben's research shows that we can form new, positive neural pathways throughout our lives. Human connection doesn't just feel good - it reshapes our biology and helps us live longer.
If you're ready to heal, awaken, and deepen inwardly, this conversation is one to press play on.
