Get our top ranked mobile app for iOS or Android!  In this episode of The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast, Ginny Yurich sits down with cognitive neuroscientist Dr. Caroline Leaf for a hopeful, practical conversation about why you’re not “broken” for feeling triggered, overwhelmed, or stuck and what to do next. Dr. Leaf breaks down her mind–brain–body framework in a way that finally makes sense, using a simple nature picture: your thoughts grow like trees, and what you practice strengthens over time. You’ll learn why multitasking quietly fuels hurry sickness, how small daily “micro-actions” can shift real patterns, and how to start responding instead of reacting. This one combines science, sanity, and relief in one conversation, with tangible tools you can try today.
