Why do we make the choices we make? What if the answer lies deep in how our brains are wired for human needs?
In this Thoughtful Thursday episode of Neuro Collective, Dr. Michael and May Bagnell unpack how your six human needs—certainty, variety, significance, love & connection, growth, and contribution—shape not just your mindset, but your health, relationships, and healing potential.
From battling internal tug-of-wars between certainty and adventure, to understanding why we sabotage ourselves or stay "stuck," this conversation explores how unmet needs often drive stress, decision-making, and even recovery from chronic health challenges.
👉 Learn:
✔ How needs like certainty & variety can clash and create self-sabotage
✔ How childhood experiences wire your needs (and how to break free)
✔ Why being a "control freak" might just be a need for certainty in disguise
✔ How understanding your needs can unlock faster healing and emotional freedom
✔ Practical stories of clients who transformed their lives after realizing their needs
💡 Key Insight:
Transformation is always just a decision away—but first, you have to recognize what’s truly driving you.
