Thanks for stopping by! I used to be an unhealthy corporate lawyer. At 40 I decided to change my life. I switched to a 100% plant-based diet, lost 50 pounds and started exploring human potential across a spectrum mind/body/spirit disciplines: ultra-endurance, wellness, nutrition, mindfulness, psychology, relationships, parenting, leadership, and spirituality. Now 57, I share what I have learned in talks, books, and on my podcast. I'm also a dad to 4 kids & live in Malibu, California.

Video Description
How reliable are the stories we tell ourselves about our identity? This week on the podcast, I’m joined by Dr. Charan Ranganath, a pioneering neuroscientist transforming our understanding of memory. His research shows that our memories resemble not photographs of the past but paintings—constantly altered by the present moment. We explore memory’s counterintuitive purpose (hint: it’s not about documenting the past), why forgetting is crucial for survival, and how sharing stories can reshape our memories. We discuss the surprising ways that stress, sleep, and our digital environment impact memory. His insights reveal how memories shape our identity and choices, providing practical strategies to engage with—rather than resist—our remembering minds. Now available on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and everywhere you enjoy the RRP. Episode 876. ✌🏼🌱 - Rich
