EP221 Boxing, Booze & Bad Decisions. What Can Break Our Brains? | Dr Kim Gorgens

<p>Brains matter. According to Dr Kim Gorgens who joins me today to unpack all matters of brain health, damage, recovery &amp; function.</p> <p>As a competitive boxer, occasional insomniac and teenage binge drinker along with a handful of other black marks against healthy brain development along the way I dare say Dr Kim Gorgens left me rethinking (with watch functional cells I have left) some of the experiences I have had in life.</p> <p>As a clinical psychologist and neuropsychologist Doc Gorgens has spent years researching, speaking and teaching around the area’s of youth sport concussion, neurorehabilitation, brain injuries and the criminal justice system, to name a few. In this podcast we talk lot about what we should be aware of when it comes to contact sport, childhood trauma, exercise and brain health – I LOVED this conversation, wouldn’t have minded having it a good 3 decades ago though.</p> <p>Enjoy!</p> <p><strong>EPISODE SPONSOR | SAFIE</strong></p> <p>Website: https://safie.com.au</p> <p><strong>DR KIM GORGENS</strong></p> <p>Website: https://kimgorgens.wordpress.com</p> <p><strong>TIFFANEE COOK</strong></p> <p>Linktree: https://linktr.ee/rollwiththepunches</p> <p>Website: &nbsp;www.rollwiththepunches.com.au</p> <p>LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/tiffaneecook/</p> <p>Facebook: www.facebook.com/rollwiththepunchespodcast</p> <p>Instagram: www.instagram.com/rollwiththepunches_podcast</p> <p>Instagram: www.instagram.com/tiffaneeandco</p> <p><br></p> --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/roll-withthepunches/message
