    Stanford Neuroscientist: THIS Is The Secret To Living Longer (It's Not Diet Or Exercise)

    2026/06/10 | 1h 34 mins.
    I’ve always wondered how specifically having good relationships can decrease our likelihood of cancer or having a heart attack, and improve our immune systems and brain health. Well, I asked a Stanford Neuroscientist and his answers are absolutely fascinating. 

    Dr. Ben Rein is an award-winning neuroscientist and lecturer at Stanford, and the author of the phenomenal new book, Why Brains Need Friends. We are talking about why hanging out with your friends floods your brain with a chemical cocktail that is basically a microdose of MDMA, why being married beats chemotherapy as the number one predictor of surviving cancer, why Botox and Tylenol and Advil are making it harder to make friends, yes, really, and why we should all probably get dogs and get our parents to get dogs if we want them to live a long time.

    You're going to come away with a ton of action steps to not only live longer and be healthier, but also just feel better every single day.

    🎧 What you’ll learn:

    • How to find your ideal "social dose"

    • Introvert or extrovert: You might be wrong about yourself 

    • How to audit your social life

    • The Botox friendship problem

    • The neuroscience behind social anxiety (why you dread going out)

    • What your pet is doing to your brain 

    • The hidden social side effects of Tylenol and Advil

    Find the introversion to extroversion assessment and the social journal mentioned in this episode here: https://www.benrein.com/book (tag @lizmoody and @dr.benrein with your results!).

    2026/06/01 | 25 mins.
    Even though I have friends, I still feel really lonely sometimes, and I know that's a big thing that you guys struggle with as well. You'll write to me, and you'll tell me how lonely you feel, but that you're not sure why or what to do about it. So I dove into the research around friendships and loneliness, and it turns out that there are five specific types of friends that we all need.

    And if you are missing even one of these friends, your brain is literally wired to feel lonely, no matter how many friends that you might have. So today, we are going to go through all of the 5 friend types, and we're going to get into exactly how to make the friends that you might be missing.

    🎧 What you’ll learn:

    • The 5 specific types of friends every brain needs

    • Exactly how to find each type of friend you're missing

    • Why you can have a full social life and still feel lonely

    • How your friendships shape your sense of identity

    • Why "life phase" matters more than closeness

    • How your friends literally change your stress levels

    • The 1 friendship that grounds your nervous system
