This episode is about "Dopamine fasting". At the same time, this concept may not be widely accepted in the scientific community; we think about how useful it is to abstain from our "drugs of choice". We trust this motivates you to control your life and think about prioritising your goals. "Drug of choice" refers to anything that we can potentially be addicted to e.g. social media, gaming etc.
