Our brains are wired to seek pleasure – but they aren’t always great at anticipating the pain that pleasure can lead to. Dr. Anna Lembke is a medical director of Stanford Addiction Medicine, and she joins host Krys Boyd to discuss the neuroscience of pleasure, why our bodies crave it, and the consequences of overconsumption. Her book is “Dopamine Nation: Finding Balance in the Age of Indulgence.”
