  • Episode #269: Dopamine, Decision-Making & Meaning with Mike Long and Dr. Leigh Richardson

    Episode #269: Dopamine, Decision-Making & Meaning with Mike Long and Dr. Leigh Richardson
    Apr 25 2025
    On the latest episode of In Your Head Radio, I sat down with Mike Long, co-author of the international bestseller The Molecule of More and sole author of the powerful sequel Taming the Molecule of More. We dove into the science and psychology of dopamine—that feel-good neurotransmitter tied to the brain’s reward circuit and pleasure center. But as Mike explains, dopamine isn’t just about experiencing pleasure—it’s also about chasing it. There are two ways we encounter dopamine: The pleasure of the moment and the anticipation of what might happen. When it comes to decision-making, this dual nature can cloud our judgment. Are we making choices based on present satisfaction—or are we hooked on future possibilities that may never come? Mike also raised a powerful point: when we’re always chasing dopamine, we risk overlooking meaning and purpose in our lives. This conversation is a must-listen for anyone curious about how brain chemistry shapes motivation, behavior, and fulfillment.
