Mind Pilot Episode 93

In this episode, Dr. Jana Price-Sharps is joined by her husband and co-author, Dr. Matthew Sharps, to discuss their newly published book, Beyond Survival: Pilot Your Own Brain. They dive deep into the science of the "fight or flight" response, explaining how chronic stress can deprive the prefrontal cortex of resources, leading to "cognitive tunneling" and reactive decision-making. Dr. Matthew Sharps details how to move from "Gestalt" (automatic) habits to "feature-intensive" analysis, offering a roadmap for breaking destructive cycles and handling high-stress transitions from the field to home. Tune in to learn practical psychological tools that will empower you to adapt, overcome, and take charge of your own brain.
