About this listen
In this vulnerable and eye-opening episode, business psychologist Stacey Pitts Caldwell shares what it was like to receive her brain scan results from Amen Clinics. The summary revealed patterns of both overactivity and under-activity across key regions: heightened thalamus and basal ganglia activity linked to anxiety and irritability; under-activity in the prefrontal cortex, cerebellum, and temporal lobes tied to focus, organization, and mood regulation challenges; plus signs of past injury and early cortical atrophy.
Would she recommend a brain scan to others? Stacey shares a thoughtful answer—acknowledging the cost and access barriers, while highlighting the powerful self-awareness such an assessment can bring. This episode blends science, personal reflection, and professional insight, offering an honest look at what it means to truly see your brain and what to do with the knowledge it gives you.
