03: Dopamine Regulation as Resistance - How Algorithms Hijack Your Brain

Breaking the dopamine loop & reclaiming focus in the age of the attention economy.

Your attention is your true wealth. In a world engineered to extract it, choosing where it goes is an act of resistance.

This episode is a deep dive into dopamine, phone addiction, and the attention economy. We break down what dopamine is, what it does in the brain, and how your brain’s motivation-reward system is being exploited.

You will also get five practical tools for breaking the dopamine addiction cycle, reducing compulsive phone use, and retraining your brain toward effort, presence, and real satisfaction.

Your doom scrolling feeds the corporate overlords—your awareness feeds you :)
