  • The Exhaustion Sleep Can't Fix — A Scientist Explains NAD Depletion
    2026/05/27
    NAD is the molecule in every cell that powers your energy — and there's a kind of exhaustion, the kind a good night's sleep and a weekend off can't fix, that comes from running low on it. If you're a woman in your 40s, 50s, or 60s caring for aging parents while raising kids and running a career — the sandwich generation — that depletion is real, and it's happening at the cellular level. In this episode, Dr. Caroline Leaf sits down with Mona Rosene, MS, RD, Global Director of Scientific Affairs at Niagen Bioscience, to explore NAD — the coenzyme that powers your mitochondria and fuels over 500 metabolic processes. NAD drops roughly 65% between the ages of 30 and 70, and chronic stress, menopause, poor sleep, and illness deplete it even faster. Mona explains what that means for your energy, brain fog, hormones, and inflammation — and what you can actually do about it. 🔬 What you'll learn: - Why caregiver exhaustion isn't fixed by sleep — and what's actually being depleted inside your cells - What NAD+ is, why it powers your mitochondria, and how it fuels over 500 metabolic processes in the body - How perimenopause, menopause, chronic stress, and aging compound to drain your cellular energy - Why an unmanaged mind "batters the brain and body" and burns through your NAD+ reserves - The lifestyle-first approach to rebuilding energy — and when supplementation actually makes sense - The connection between NAD+, inflammation, PCOS, brain fog, and hormonal health 📚 Resources: 🔗 Tru Niagen (use code DRLEAF20 for 20% off): https://www.truniagen.com 🔗 Guest: Mona Rosene, Niagen Bioscience 🔗 Dr. Leaf's Website: https://drleaf.com 🔗 1:1 Coaching with Dr. Leaf: https://drleaf.com/coaching-1-1 🔗 Neurocycle App: https://theswitch.app Sponsors helping make this show possible: • Shopify: Sign up for your one-dollar-per-month trial today at Shopify.com/leaf • OSEA: Get a spring-worthy glow with clean, clinically tested skincare from OSEA.

  • Pick My Brain: Why Adult Friendships Are Dying (And What to Do About It)
    2026/05/20
    Pick My Brain is Dr. Caroline Leaf's new Q&A series — you send the questions, she answers them with real neuroscience. No fluff, no generic advice. Just honest answers to the things you're actually dealing with. This week's theme: why adult friendships are dying — and what's happening in your brain when they do. You have 500 followers and no one to call at 2 AM. The number of Americans with no close friends has quadrupled since 1990. The U.S. Surgeon General has declared loneliness a public health crisis — one that increases your risk of premature death by more than 60%. And yet no one talks about it honestly. In this episode, Dr. Leaf takes real listener questions on the loneliness epidemic: why friend breakups hurt worse than divorce, why your husband's silence might literally be killing him, what happens in your brain when a friendship turns toxic, and whether it's actually possible to make real friends after 40. 🔬 What you'll learn: Why a "like" doesn't trigger the same oxytocin response as eye contact — and what your brain actually needs The neuroscience of friend grief: why losing a friendship activates the same pain centers as physical injury Why male loneliness is now a public health crisis — and what's happening neurologically when men stop maintaining friendships How toxic friendships create the same addiction loop as substances — and why leaving one feels like withdrawal The 9-week rule for rebuilding friendship circuitry in your brain and nervous system Why jealousy of a friend's success is data, not a character flaw The science-backed path to making friends after 40 — even when everyone already seems to "have their people" Resources mentioned: Dr. Leaf's Website: https://drleaf.com 1:1 Coaching: https://drleaf.com/coaching-1-1 21 Day Brain Detox Course: https://drleaf.com/courses Neurocycle App: https://theswitch.app Sponsors helping make this show possible: • Shopify: Sign up for your one-dollar-per-month trial today at Shopify.com/leaf • OSEA: Get a spring-worthy glow with clean, clinically tested skincare from OSEA.

  • The 15-Minute Solitude Practice That Rewires Your Brain
    2026/05/13
    Most people would rather shock themselves than sit alone with their own thoughts. In a University of Virginia study, 67% of participants chose physical pain over 15 minutes of silence. That's not a personality flaw — it's a skill most of us were never taught. In this episode, Dr. Caroline Leaf explains why solitude isn't a luxury or a wellness trend — it's a neurological requirement your brain depends on to function. Drawing on neuroscience, she breaks down what happens when you fill every quiet moment with podcasts, notifications, and noise, and what you're actually losing when you do. You'll learn the difference between chosen solitude and forced isolation, how the brain's default mode network drives creativity, memory, and emotional regulation — and why shutting it down constantly has real cognitive consequences. You'll also get a simple 15-minute practice to start rebuilding the capacity right now. If you struggle to be alone with yourself — or you've never thought about it — this episode will change how you think about silence.
