How does brain development influence our communication across different genders and ages? The human brain is a complex organ. It enables you to foster better communication, which allows you to thrive in everything from your relationships to your performance. Every day we learn more and more about how it operates. Recent breakthroughs in neuroscience have started unraveling the mysteries of how hormones play a crucial role in shaping brain development and neuroplasticity. I’m excited to do a deep dive on this topic with our guest today. Dr. Sarah McKay is a neuroscientist, speaker, and founder of Think Brain and the Neuroscience Academy’s suite of training programs. She’s also the author of The Women’s Brain Book: The Neuroscience of Health, Hormones and Happiness. Your brain changes throughout your entire lifespan, and some of these changes can be fairly significant. But these changes are important in structuring not just how your brain functions, but your ability to form social connections during adolescence and beyond. Listen in as Dr. McKay talks about how your brain develops, what you can do to optimize your brain performance and enhance your ability to communicate effectively with people across generations.

How do you find a state of calm on a stressful, chaotic day? Peace and quiet are rare commodities in a busy world filled with stress, conflict, and distraction.

How do you create change that lasts? The average person has around 60,000 thoughts every day. The problem is up to 95% of those thoughts are the same ones you’ve already had. If you want different results, you need a new behavior. And to get a new behavior, you have start by developing new capacities, capabilities, and beliefs. This topic is one I get questioned about a lot in our Kwik Brain Universe, and I’m excited to break down the core components that go into generating change that lasts a lifetime. Change is hard. And it can be difficult to get out of your own way. But you can take the first step by shifting your perspective, your surroundings, and the things you’re exposed to. If you want to stop relying on hoping you can change and cultivate the confidence that you will change, this episode is for you. Link to Show Notes Link to Kwik Brain C.O.D.E.

How does real life connection influence your brain health and longevity? The rise of algorithms has had a significant impact on our overall brain health and mental well-being. They work to direct your attention online and can disrupt how you interact with people, eventually interfering with how you learn, communicate, and engage with others. This makes it difficult to maintain a healthy balance between being online and fostering in-person connections. To go further on this topic, I’m excited to have Colleen and Jason Wachob on our show today. They are the founders and co-CEO’s of Mind Body Green, an independent media brand dedicated to your well-being. They’re also the authors of the brand-new book, The Joy of Well-Being: A Practical Guide to a Happy, Healthy, and Long Life. Technology can make your life easier in many ways. But it can also have a downside. The more it advances, the more tempting it can be to rely on algorithms to think for you.

How do you organize your day to get the most out of it? Our community is made up of people all over the world. And while not everyone has the same education, income, or networking connections, the one thing we all have equally is time. Everyone has the same twenty-four hours in the day, but it’s up to you how to utilize them to your advantage. On today’s episode, I want to share my very simple framework on how I chunk down my day for maximum results. This isn’t meant to be followed rigorously. Instead, my goal is to help you learn the principles so you can get the most out of every twenty-four hour period—and still get enough sleep.

This helps you improve your productivity and performance, which ultimately leads to increased profitability and peace of mind.

What if you could read one book a week without speed reading? The average American reads four books a year.

There’s no denying that leaders are readers. I love the topic of today’s episode. Reading is important to me because I grew up with learning challenges from a brain injury. It took me a few extra years to learn how to read and it was one of my biggest challenges. That’s why I’m so passionate about helping you unlock your reading superpower.

How can you transform passive learning into active learning? Learning is not a spectator sport. I’ve been saying that for over twenty years because the human brain simply isn’t designed to effectively learn through information consumption alone. You learn better—and faster—when you create and co-create material in a method known as active learning. In today’s episode, I’m going to share six tactical steps that can help you transform your learning from passive to active. With these six keys, you’ll learn more in less time, allowing you to achieve results you never thought possible. Knowledge by itself isn’t power. It only becomes power when you apply and implement it—when you take action. You develop deeper understanding, helping you to connect new information with what you already know. If you’ve been struggling to take your learning to a whole new level, this episode is for you. ***If you’re inspired, I want to invite you to join me in my brand NEW 10-day course, specifically designed to boost your productivity.

What’s the connection between love and the brain? You might ask, what does love have to do with the brain? After all, love is often associated with the heart. But when it comes to brain health, life fulfilment, and overall performance, it isn’t only your neurological networks that matter, it’s also your social network. And the most important social network you have are the people you love. I’m so excited to have Jay Shetty back on the show today to talk more about this topic. Jay is a New York Times bestselling author, host of the award-winning On Purpose podcast, and Chief Purpose Officer of Calm.

How do you bounce back from a mistake? We all make mistakes, but they can be difficult to accept them in the moment. No matter how impeccable you are or how perfect you want to be, the question is not whether you will eventually mess up, it’s will you own it and learn from life’s inevitable ups and downs?

What are four choices you can make daily to change your brain, your body, and even your bank account? My book, Limitless, opens with a quote from a famous French philosopher that says, “Life is the C between B & D”. B is birth, D is death, and C—life—is choice. Every morning you have a chance and a choice to grow, make things better, and move in the direction to achieve everything you desire. On today’s episode, I’m going to go over four areas that you can focus on every single day to change the things you might not believe you have agency or control over. As I go through these areas, I want you commit to making a real choice by the end. There are a lot of areas in life that might feel like you don’t have influence over. But you do.

How can you boost and unlock your multiple intelligences? There’s a common misunderstanding that there is one type of intelligence. Maybe you took a standardized test when you were in school, and that score was how you defined your IQ. But research shows that not only are there multiple types of intelligence, but it isn’t a fixed number either. I’m going to dive into this research on today’s show. Specifically, I’m going to go over Howard Gardner’s eight types of intelligences, plus a few extra, and some examples of how they might have developed or shaped your experiences of the world. I talk a lot about the importance of having a growth mindset and this is why. You can improve your intelligence, but you first have to believe it’s possible.

How can you enhance your child’s education to meet the unknown demands of their future? In our rapidly changing world, it can be difficult to find education that will serve your children’s needs as they grow towards adulthood.

She’s Founder of Wellness Mama, mom of six, and a best-selling author. Her background in research, journalism, and nutrition has made her a powerful ally in education empowerment.

What are the keys to long-life learning? There’s a difference between being a life-long learner and long-life learner. How you learn at thirty years old is different from how you learn at sixty years old. As you age, your brain changes, which then transforms how you look at certain topics, what you want to learn about, and why you want to learn about them. To go deeper into this topic, I’m thrilled to have Chip Conley as our special guest today. Chip is the founder and CEO of Modern Elder Academy, which focuses on the value of intergenerational collaboration in companies. His latest book, Wisdom@Work: The Making of a Modern Elder, encourages people to rethink the value of having five generations contributing to the workspace.

How do you make the placebo effect work for you? We talk a lot about the power of mindset. Before you can achieve any goal, you have to believe it’s possible and change your inner self-talk to support that belief.

He’s also the author of the book, Suggestible You: The Curious Science of Your Brain’s Ability to Deceive, Transform, and Heal.

Can physical exercise boost your brain power and focus? You’ve heard me say, as your body moves, the brain grooves. That’s because the primary reason you have a brain is to control the movement in your body. And as you move, your brain creates brain-derived neurotropic factors, which is like fertilizer for the brain. Today, I want to welcome you to do this Kwik challenge with me. I believe that when you challenge yourself in one area, you learn how to challenge yourself in other areas of your life. That’s how you build strength and mental resilience. You can make real change in your life simply by challenging yourself to do brand new things. It adds novelty to your life, which creates new brain connections and stimulates neural growth.

What role does your microbiome take in shaping your moods, memory, and even your dreams? You already know that what you eat matters, especially for your brain matter.

How do you unlimit your fear? Fear is hardwired into your brain, and it isn’t always a bad thing. It’s meant to keep you safe, but in our modern world, stress is often misidentified in the brain as fear. This can trigger your fight, flight, or freeze response, and that can hurt your productivity, hinder your performance, and take away your peace of mind. In today’s episode, I want to talk about fear through the lens of the Limitless model. Using Mindset, Motivation, and Methods as a framework can not only help you achieve your goals, but it can help you identify what’s holding you back.

What is your ‘wouldn’t go back moment’, and how do you reach it? Change is not optional. It happens whether you want it to or not. But the good news is your brain is meant to change, which means your life is meant to change. Without realizing it, you’ve likely had a moment after difficulty where you realized that what you experienced gave you a new skill, perspective, or mentality that you wouldn’t give up. To have this transformative conversation with you, I’m thrilled to have Jason Feifer on our show today. He’s the editor in chief of Entrepreneur Magazine and author of the brand-new book, Build for Tomorrow: An Action Plan for Embracing Change, Adapting Fast, and Future-Proofing Your Career. Change can be difficult. Even though some people might seem to adapt more easily than others, the four phases of change are the same for everyone. And they always end with a ‘wouldn’t go back moment.’ Listen in, as Jason talks about why belief in this moment drives success and can help you identify opportunities for your future. ***If you’re inspired, I want to invite you to join me in my brand NEW 10-day course, specifically designed to boost your productivity.

How do you use light to enhance your memory? As the world becomes increasingly digital, you’re likely spending more time indoors with artificial light. Blue light from screens can interrupt your sleep, focus, and concentration. But can some types of light actually make you stronger or smarter? To go in-depth on this topic, I’m thrilled to welcome Dr. Shelley James on our show today. She’s an international expert on light and well-being, as well as a trained glass artist and electrician. Her TEDx talk, How Can Space Station Lighting Help Us Here on Earth?, was one of the top three most-watched talks the month it was released. In the same way that sunlight directly affects your biochemistry, artificial light can influence how your body and your brain perform. By understanding how to use light effectively, you can harness some incredibly powerful health benefits. Listen in, as Dr. James talks about how she used light to heal from a traumatic brain injury and how you can use it for greater wellness and mental acuity. *** Do you want to stay up to date with every new episode and get my brand new Kwik Brain Accelerator Program?

What is the key to lasting motivation? Motivation is a topic that comes up a lot in our community. You want to eat right, read more, exercise daily, and meditate regularly. But talking about making a change is often easier than achieving long-term follow-through. I’m excited to have Dr. Michelle Segar on our show today to talk more about this topic. She’s an award-winning motivation scientist and researcher at the University of Michigan. She’s the author of No Sweat: How the Simple Science of Motivation Can Bring You a Lifetime of Fitness and she’s here to talk about her new book, Joy Choice: How to Finally Achieve Lasting Changes in Eating and Exercise. There’s a difference between reaching a goal and sustaining that behavior over time, and many of the paradigms and beliefs you might hold around habits are likely outdated or oversimplified. Listen in, as Dr. Segar dispels the many myths around habits and talks about her model for creating lasting change and sustained motivation. *** Do you want to stay up to date with every new episode and get my brand new Kwik Brain Accelerator Program?

How do you memorize jokes? Tell me if this sounds familiar. You hear a fantastic joke, but when the time comes to repeat it, your mind goes blank. This doesn’t seem to happen with song lyrics or movie quotes, so why do jokes feel like they disappear moments after you hear them? I work with stand-up comedians to help them memorize their sets by teaching them the methods we teach in our online memory course, and today, I’m going to give you four Kwik Tips to help you remember jokes. When it comes to telling a good joke, it’s frustrating to miss the punchline or forget a detail that makes the whole thing falls flat.
