In the debut episode of The Purist Podcast, Purist founder Cristina Cuomo is joined by Dr. Wendy Suzuki (neuroscientist, Seryl Kushner Dean of NYU’s College of Arts & Science, and author, “Good Anxiety” and “Healthy Brain, Happy Life” for a wide-ranging conversation on how the brain works and how we can take care of it. They discuss the fundamentals of neuroanatomy, the roles of the prefrontal cortex, hippocampus, and amygdala, and how movement, sleep, and breathwork directly impact brain health and emotional regulation.
Dr. Suzuki explains the science behind stress, trauma, and fear — and how tools like mindfulness, compassion, and even humor can help reshape our neural responses. From the neuroscience of love and oxytocin to diet, cortisol, and neuroplasticity, this premiere episode explores what it takes to build a stronger, healthier brain at any age.
