About Brains 'R' Us
Brains 'R' Us is a weekly conversation about the most fascinating organ in your body — your brain.
Each episode blends cutting-edge neuroscience, mindfulness, and personal growth lessons to help you understand why you think, feel, and behave the way you do — and how to use that knowledge to create a calmer, more joyful, more successful life.
Plus, once per month, we host an enriching conversation between Centerpointe Research CEO MaryEllen Tribby and icons from the personal development world. This is your opportunity to hear directly from neuroscientists, business leaders, self-help gurus and meditation masters about how they overcame their own struggles and achieved lasting success.
Brains 'R' Us makes the science of self-improvement simple, practical and inspiring.
