Technology is rewiring our brains and relationships. Dr. Alok Kanojia explains how modern conveniences make us less resilient and what we can do about it!

What We Discuss with Dr. Alok Kanojia:

  • Technology and apps have become like an invasive species — our brains haven't evolved to handle them properly, leading to increased anxiety, depression, and difficulty forming relationships.
  • Cultural conditioning that only validates male anger while dismissing other emotions results in psychological difficulties and destructive behaviors.
  • The proliferation of convenience apps and services is diminishing our natural resilience and problem-solving abilities.
  • Many young people struggle with purpose because external pressures and technology have drowned out their internal signals and emotional awareness.
  • The good news is these issues can be addressed through intentional work on social skills, emotional awareness, and reducing technology dependence. Studies show even small interventions like watching educational content can improve mental health outcomes by ~10%, and more structured programs can show significant improvement in just three or four months.
  • And much more...
