About this episode

"I woke up one morning and I thought, I never chose to be a doctor. My parents told me to be a doctor. I was told at school, I was smart. I was so smart that I didn't just do an MD, I did a PhD as well. And I said to myself that morning, if I'm so effing smart, what do I actually want to do?" - Dr. Tara Swart Bieber

In this powerful episode, neuroscientist Dr. Tara Swart Bieber shares her personal journey of self-discovery and transformation. She reveals how she broke free from limiting beliefs about her creativity and career path, challenging listeners to question their own ingrained narratives about their abilities and potential. Dr. Swart Bieber's story of redefining herself from a doctor to a bestselling author and creative entrepreneur serves as an inspiring example of the brain's capacity for change at any age.

Throughout the conversation, Dr. Swart Bieber weaves her expertise in neuroscience with practical advice for personal growth. She explains the physical process of learning and habit formation in the brain, using vivid metaphors to make complex concepts accessible. Her insights on neuroplasticity offer hope and practical strategies for those struggling with self-doubt or looking to acquire new skills. By sharing both her scientific knowledge and personal experiences, Dr. Swart Bieber provides a roadmap for listeners to unlock their potential, embrace lifelong learning, and challenge their own limiting beliefs.
