Welcome back to another episode. Today, I’m sharing something a little different – a book review! And oh my goodness, this one is so worth your time.
The book is called The Dose Effect by Dr. TJ Power – and it’s one of the most relevant, practical, and powerful books I’ve read in a long time.
It was actually recommended by Anna from our GROW Book Club (thank you, Anna!), and it honestly feels like one of those rare books that lands in your hands just when you need it.
In this episode, I walk you through the key idea of the book – how our feelings, motivation, energy and even our sense of joy are directly influenced by four brain chemicals: Dopamine, Oxytocin, Serotonin and Endorphins.
Together they spell D.O.S.E. — and understanding them might just be the missing piece if you’ve been feeling flat, anxious, or off balance lately.
Here’s what you’ll take away from listening:
✨ What “The Dose Effect” is and why it’s such a game-changer
✨ How modern habits are hijacking our brain chemistry without us realising
✨ Simple, science-backed ways to restore your natural balance
It’s not about being perfect – it’s about small shifts that help us feel more like ourselves again. I’ll also share how you can read along with me and the Dream Life community inside our GROW Book Club this May!
So if you’re ready for a reset, or just want to understand your beautiful brain a bit better — tune in. This could be a turning point 💛
As always, I’d LOVE to hear what resonates with you from this episode and what you plan to implement after listening in. So please share and let’s keep the conversation going in the Dream Life Podcast Facebook Group here.
Have a wonderful weekend …and remember, it all starts with a dream 💛
