Finding Opportunities in Hard Situations with Jason Feifer
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.

Using Light To Enhance Your Memory with Dr. Shelley James
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?

The Key To Sustainable Change And Lasting Motivation with Michelle Segar
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?
