Beyond the Triune Brain: The Neuroscience of Prediction, Emotion and Change

What if your brain isn't divided into separate systems for survival, emotion, and rational

thought? And what if understanding how the brain actually works could change the way

you think about your patterns, your identity, and your capacity for change?

For decades, the triune brain model shaped how we understood human behavior,

suggesting that our reptilian, emotional, and thinking brains operate as distinct layers.

While this model helped make neuroscience accessible, modern research offers a more

integrated picture: the brain operates through dynamic, interconnected networks that

continuously influence how we perceive, predict, feel, and respond to the world.

In this episode of Trauma Rewired, Jennifer Wallace and Elisabeth Kristof welcome

back applied neurology educator and Next Level Neuro founder Matt Bush to explore

network neuroscience, predictive processing, and the emerging science of how our

experiences are constructed.
