Hey again, it's me, Santina Duarte, reporting for duty. This week has honestly been filled with the nightmarish experience of crushing on someone now and it has made me s p i r a l like the most unhinged conversations with my friends over the most disgusting feelings. So, anyway, I wanted to talk about some of the neuroscience behind crushes and why love is such an important aspect of human health, because I have been driving myself insane. Also, spoiler alert - my crazy cat lady dendincies also don't help with this and are probably exacerbating my insanity, which is really fun. So, fall down a rabbit hole with me and watch as I justify my recent late-night walks in the rain while listening to The Tortured Poets Department on repeat.

As per usual, I release a new episode every Monday at 7:00 am EST. You can find me on all podcast platforms and on Instagram at @theplasticitypodcast. Thank you so much for another week of listening, and remember: b*tches aint sh*t, and they aint saying nothing —100 MF's can't tell me nothing.
