My guest on the Huberman lab podcast this week is Ross Edgley — a British ultra-endurance athlete and author known for completing extraordinary athletic feats by tapping into diverse sources of motivation and resilience.
We discuss the psychological and biological forces that allow people to persevere through extreme challenges.
Then we cover how to dynamically update your sense of purpose, emotions, philosophy, and personal narratives to expand your ability to overcome adversity of all kinds. We also discuss the brain circuits and science of fatigue and stress adaptation.
Ultimately, a new framework emerges that you can use to access persistent motivation.
This episode discusses neural circuits and biology related to motivation not previously covered on the Huberman Lab podcast.
And if you have topics or guest, you’d like me to consider for future episodes of the podcast, please put that in the comments below.
And as always, thank you for your interest in science!
