1 小时 3 分钟You know, who are we if we aren't a compilation of all the memories we have and all the experiences that we have.
And the only way we hold onto those experiences, our own personal experiences that are unique to us and only us, is through our memory.
This week's episode is sponsored by Camp GLP, that's short for Good Life project, and I'm really excited to share.
Also, we have been featured in USA Today, which is pretty awesome.
So what is it?
It is a pretty amazing three and a half day adult summer camp for entrepreneurs, makers, and world shakers.
A place where you can come let your hair down, drop the facade.
Just be you have an incredible time.
Meet people who see the world.
You see the world.
And simultaneously learn a ton about building cool things, about entrepreneurship, about making and leave absolutely lit up.

Thanks so much.
On to our show.
Imagine waking up one day and realizing that every professional dream that you had ever had, you'd achieved, but along the way, you'd essentially given up your entire life to get there.
Well, that's the reality that today's guest, Wendy Suzuki, faced when she woke up one day in the middle of her life realizing that she was an acclaimed, award winning neuroscientist, ran her own lab at NYU, but at the same time, everything else in her life had literally ceased to exist, she decided to make a profound change in the way that she leaned into life and the way that she explored everything outside of the laboratory.
In the process, not only did she change her life, but that informed a radical shift in the nature of the research she was doing in her laboratory.
The way that we've come to understand the brain and how it interacts with things like exercise and movement, that's the conversation we're exploring in today's episode.
I'm Jonathan Fields.
