Show Notes
Am I Doing It Wrong? — the hit conversation show that explores the all-too-human anxieties we have about trying to get our lives right — is coming back for its third season. Each week hosts Raj Punjabi-Johnson and Noah Michelson will once again enlist experts and guests with big opinions to debate and strategize the best ways to wrangle everything that’s constantly thrown at us, but they've got a slew of hot new topics to tackle. From tips on making friends as an adult to decoding the hype around protein to learning how to hack our emotions, by the end of each episode, you'll be wiser, less worried, and more equipped to do every day a little better.
New episodes drop every Thursday starting January 1st.

Luckily, Raj and Noah are joined by just the guy to help us unpack this complicated world: chef, dietician, and behavioral scientist, Dr. Wesley McWhorter. Oh, and he’s a cookbook author and Food as Medicine Expert.
Why do we dream? What even is a dream? And can we control our dreams? Those are just a couple of the questions surrounding the mystery that is dreaming. Today, Raj and Noah dive into the murky dreamworld with postdoctoral fellow in the Cambridge Consciousness and Cognition Laboratory, Karen Konkoly, where she explores consciousness in the dreaming brain and specializes in lucid dreaming, to find out what dreams are really made of.
Taking a trip by oneself can be a fulfilling way to see the world, but it can also be daunting if you’re used to traveling with friends or family. Luckily, Raj and Noah have THE travel expert to help us get into going places solo. Blogger, author, and a traveler who has visited every country in the world, Jessica Nabongo shares some of her tips and tricks that she's picked up over the years, in hopes that we can find joy in exploring the world solo as well.
Going to the doctor can be some scary business, whether you have medical anxiety or not. Today, Raj and Noah are joined by Dr. Milna Rufin, internist and Clinic Director of the Residents program at NYU Langone, who helps us learn how to make the most of our (hopefully) annual doctors’ visits, and what we could be doing better to get better care.
There always comes a point in the day where we crave a little treat, a snack if you will. Whether it's a handful of nuts or some Flaming Hots, the call of the snack comes for us all. How can we approach snacking in a way that keeps us sated, but also isn’t a bad habit? Well, today Raj and Noah are joined by Dr. Maya Vadiveloo to chat through exactly that. Here’s to better snacking!
