Brains Are Sexy Podcast
Welcome to Brains Are Sexy, where we believe a healthy brain is a sexy brain. Join hosts Jorgie Sandoval, Dr. Brian Bello, and Olivia Massey for monthly mental health conversations exploring the challenges of adulthood and the healthy coping tools that help us navigate them.
Designed for listeners tackling the ongoing rollercoaster of adulthood, each episode dives into a different topic you're likely navigating right now: setting healthy boundaries, dealing with imposter syndrome at work, handling unexpected changes, or simply trying to take better care of yourself. Think of Brains Are Sexy as a candid, supportive conversation with friends who actually know what they're talking about.
Our hosts bring a blend of lived experience and professional insights: Jorgie Sandoval is a queer, undocumented professional with a background in mentorship and development; Dr. Brian Bello is a psychiatrist, living with ADHD, with a private practice in Long Beach; and Olivia Massey is a child and adolescent therapist.
Our mission is to normalize mental health conversations and empower you to build the tools you need for a healthier, happier mind.
Follow the show to join our community and never miss an episode. Because taking care of your mental health isn't just important - it's sexy =)
