Cleaning Up Your Mental Mess with Dr. Caroline Leaf

This week, we have a very special episode to share with you!

Dr. Leaf dives deep into her book and explains how properly managing our mind and thinking habits can shape our brain, and even our DNA, in a positive way. She and John discuss the implications of her research on leadership and our own ability to manage our minds instead of allowing our minds to manage us.
