🎙️ Why You Self-Sabotage: The Hidden Brain Circuit That’s Quietly Controlling Your Life | Dr. Kyra Bobinet (Pt. 1) . We all know what to do… so why don’t we do it? . In this mind-bending episode, Dr. Kyra Bobinet takes us deep into the neurological fault line between desire and action—the "Know-do gap"—and the mysterious ancient brain structure responsible: the habenula. . This isn’t dopamine. This isn’t willpower. This is the revolutionary science of behavioral sabotage most people have never heard of. . Dr. Bobinet—Harvard-trained physician, neuroscientist, and author of Unstoppable Brain—joins Dov Baron for a vulnerable, unscripted exploration of how trauma, addiction, procrastination, and self-doubt all link back to one small but powerful structure in the midbrain that silently shuts down our motivation. . 🔥 On This Episode: <ul data-start="1179" data-end="1843"> <li class="" data-start="1179" data-end="1286"> The ancient anti-reward system: What the habenula does to kill your motivation—and how to reboot it </li> <li class="" data-start="1179" data-end="1286"> </li> <li class="" style="font-weight: bold;" data-start="1287" data-end= "1379"> Why “I know what to do, but I don’t do it” is a neurological truth, not a character flaw </li> <li class="" style="font-weight: bold;" data-start="1287" data-end= "1379"> </li> <li class="" style="font-weight: bold;" data-start="1380" data-end= "1437"> The real reason self-help and habit hacks don’t stick </li> <li class="" style="font-weight: bold;" data-start="1380" data-end= "1437"> </li> <li class="" style="font-weight: bold;" data-start="1438" data-end= "1533"> The neuroscience Behind Trauma-Driven Behavior—and Why Emotional Logic Beats Rational Logic </li> <li class="" style="font-weight: bold;" data-start="1438" data-end= "1533"> </li> <li class="" style="font-weight: bold;" data-start="1534" data-end= "1602"> How your childhood shaped a lifelong unconscious fear of success </li> <li class="" style="font-weight: bold;" data-start="1534" data-end= "1602"> </li> <li class="" style="font-weight: bold;" data-start="1603" data-end= "1690"> Failing For Saftey:  The root of addictive behavior and the brain’s hidden decision. </li> <li class="" style="font-weight: bold;" data-start="1603" data-end= "1690"> </li> <li class="" style="font-weight: bold;" data-start="1691" data-end= "1752"> Why curiosity is the most powerful antidote to self-blame </li> <li class="" style="font-weight: bold;" data-start="1691" data-end= "1752"> </li> <li class="" style="font-weight: bold;" data-start="1753" data-end= "1843"> What most neuroscience gets wrong—and how this overlooked discovery changes everything </li> <li class="" style="font-weight: bold;" data-start="1753" data-end= "1843"> </li> </ul> Dr. Kyra Bobinet has worked with everyone from incarcerated youth to Fortune 100 companies and built a free, science-backed habit-change platform called Fresh Tri—no ads, no data harvesting, just real transformation. .
