Most of us go through life tuned into the station we were told to listen to—the one filled with survival, proving, and noise. But all along, another signal has been broadcasting, waiting for us to notice. I call it the Omen Frequency. It's the hidden channel of life that speaks through synchronicities—those so-called coincidences, repeating numbers, chance encounters, or inner nudges. But here's the key: synchronicities are just the signs. Omens are what happens when you interpret those signs as meaningful, when you realize they're guiding you. For me, that realization came in the Amazon jungle with plant medicine, when I suddenly saw that what looked like chaos was actually choreography. Life was always speaking—I had just been tuned to the wrong channel. The work now is integration. Learning to stay tuned to that frequency in daily life, with tools like meditation, breathwork, and the Interface Response System. So here's my invitation: this week, notice the synchronicities. Ask yourself, what if this isn't random? What omen might it be pointing me toward? If you want to dive deeper, I've written the full piece on my free Substack. Come check it out, and let's tune in together.   ►Follow Dr. JC Doornick and the Makes Sense Academy: Instagram: / drjcdoornick   Facebook:  / makessensepodcast   YouTube:  / drjcdoornick   MAKES SENSE PODCAST Welcome to the Makes Sense with Dr. JC Doornick Podcast: This podcast covers topics that expand human consciousness and performance.

Sometimes, life writes love stories so unexpected, you couldn't make them up if you tried. Today's guests, Jennie and Bryan Drollinger, know precisely what it means to become lost and then, against all odds, be found.  Years ago, Bryan and Jennie were young, in love, and full of possibility. But like so many couples, life had other plans. At a time where dating was limited to in person communication and catching someone at the right time on a land line, a few simple misses turned into misunderstandings. Bryan followed his path as a devout Mormon, got married, raised a family of seven, and built a successful career. Jenny married and settled into a marriage that blessed her with two beautiful children, yet there was an absence of that loving feeling she once dreamed of. Life brought challenges for both of them, including failed expectations, and the deep struggle of holding it all together, especially when marriage is intertwined with faith, community, and awareness that their lives were being spent more on the worst side, for better or worse.. Then came the unthinkable. Bryan's marriage ended, leaving him in one of the most challenging spaces of his life, financially, emotionally, and spiritually. Simultaneously, as fate would have it, Jenny's marriage was ending as well, facing her own heartbreaks and growing pains. And then, the universe intervened. A random reconnection occurred when Bryan, needing an attorney, found himself seeking a consultation with the firm's paralegal. Her name? Jenny.. Sparks fared, and a realization that both of their winding, messy, painful roads had prepared them for this: a second chance at the love they once shared. Now, through their new podcast A Second Chance on Love, and upcoming book made for a movie, Bryan and Jennie are opening up about their journey, their lessons, and their hope for anyone who's wondering if it's too late to rewrite their love story.

What if you unplugged from every screen in your life for seven straight weeks? No phone. No TV. No laptop. Just silence, stillness, and the raw, unfiltered experience of being human. That's exactly what Carlos Whittaker did—living with monks and Amish farmers to see what happens when you trade constant digital noise for presence, wonder and connection. In this episode, Carlos shares the physical and mental withdrawals of going screen-free, the surprising brain scan results that stunned his doctors, and the “lost arts of being human” he rediscovered. You'll learn simple, practical steps to reclaim your attention, rebuild genuine community and design your own “screen-free sabbatical,” even if you only start with two hours a week. By the end, you may never look at your phone—or your life—the same way again/ / / Are you ready to take the next step on your brain optimization journey? / / /Choose your own adventure.

It's almost comical to recognize that in the Makes Sense Ecosystem, our cornerstone system that helps people reclaim control of their reality and learn to think for themselves in a world that is thinking for us, we inappropriately call the IRS: Interface Response System.  But when it comes to taxes, the relationship most people have with the other IRS is… complicated. We dread it. We avoid it. We joke about it. But rarely do we understand it. Today, we're pulling back the curtain to explore how the tax system works, and more importantly, how to work with it instead of against it. Joining me is a new friend I originally met at the fast-growing and trendy Cre8tiveCon event. He is someone who has mastered the art of navigating this strange financial landscape: Shawn Finnegan is cofounder of new highly relevant company called Tax Hive. Shawn's not only an accomplished entrepreneur and investor, he's the guy who managed to pitch and sell to Kevin O'Leary, ‘Mr. Wonderful from Shark Tank, on becoming his business partner. Wait til you hear that story. From being jobless during the 2008 recession to building a multimillion-dollar company, Shawn knows the highs, lows, and strategic moves it takes to succeed. Today, he's an investor and partner in multiple ventures, including Tax Hive and The X Room, helping entrepreneurs protect their assets, minimize tax liabilities, and grow their wealth. So, whether you're someone who fears the IRS, ignores it, or wants to learn some great ways to keep more of what you earn, this conversation might just change the way you look at taxes forever." On a personal note, what i love most about Shawn is that underneath his big thirst and drive to gow impactdriven companies, his most valuable asset is the time he spends with his three daughters.

The Best Kept Secret In History An exploration of Eleusis, and the God Like superpower that awaits you on the other side of ego death and rebirth. There's an old story buried in the soil of Eleusis. It's not the kind of story that fades over time, but the type that lingers, and seems to remind you as you remember it, an echo of hmmm, of ancient residue that's still inside your bones. It speaks of mortals transforming into Gods and of a mysterious ceremony so powerful it was kept secret for nearly two thousand years. At its heart, it exposes a different relationship with the concept of death. Not in the physical sense. The symbolic kind. The kind you don't walk away from as the same person. ►Follow Dr. JC Doornick and the Makes Sense Academy: Instagram: / drjcdoornick   Facebook:  / makessensepodcast   YouTube:  / drjcdoornick     MAKES SENSE PODCAST Welcome to the Makes Sense with Dr. JC Doornick Podcast: This podcast covers topics that expand human consciousness and performance.

Welcome, friends. Today, I want to share a piece that I will be posting on my Makes Sense Substack, called the Alchemy of Forgiveness. This time, it's all about you. It originated from a mastermind topic I did for a plant medicine integration group I host monthly with the friends of Arkana. Feel free to reach out for more information on that. But I thought it would make for a great short form Podcast Episode to accompany it. As we approach this sensitive subject, please be aware of the following. I do not know what it is like to walk in your shoes, nor do I know your pain and circumstances. This process of forgiveness is a unique and individualized situation that will carry an acquired taste for some. What i do know is that your life experience can become extraordinary the moment you decide to stop carrying its weight on your shoulders and it will happen the moment you change the way you look at forgiveness, and this is the intention of this episode. In full transparency, I have come to termswith the fact that I will be working to release myself from its burden for the rest of my life. However, it is in my decision and intention to release it, that I have found my Freedom.   ►Follow Dr. JC Doornick and the Makes Sense Academy: Instagram: / drjcdoornick   Facebook:  / makessensepodcast   YouTube:  / drjcdoornick     MAKES SENSE PODCAST Welcome to the Makes Sense with Dr. JC Doornick Podcast: This podcast covers topics that expand human consciousness and performance.

Welcome back to the Makes Sense with Dr. JC Doornick podcast, where we challenge conventional wisdom and explore bold ideas and perspectives that could transform your health and life. Today's episode is not for the faint of heart, or the salad lovers among us. We're diving headfirst into one of the most controversial topics in modern nutrition: Is everything we've been told about healthy eating wrong? Joining us is Dr. Anthony Chaffee, MD, a neurosurgical resident, former professional rugby player, and outspoken advocate for the Carnivore Diet. Dr. Chaffee doesn't just suggest that meat is good for you, he claims it's the *only* food humans are designed to thrive on. Even more provocatively, he argues that plants aren't just unnecessary, they're actively trying to poison you. If you've ever wondered whether that green smoothie is doing more harm than good, or if chronic disease could result from a species-inappropriate diet, this conversation will make you rethink everything. ►Follow Dr. Anthony Chafee: Instagram: / @anthonychaffeemd Youtube: / https://www.youtube.com/@anthonychaffeemd  Plant Free MD Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-plant-free-md-with-dr-anthony-chaffee/id1614546790 Website: https://dranthonychaffee.com    Welcome to the Makes Sense with Dr. JC Doornick Podcast: This podcast covers topics that expand human consciousness and performance.

In recognition of Men's Mental Health Month, I offer this not as a diagnosis but as a mirror—a reflection—of one man's honest reckoning with what it really means to “be a man” in a world that rewards our silence and buries our truth. Every June, we remember the tragic loss of great men—Robin Williams, Philip Seymour Hoffman, and Anthony Bourdain. Men who made us laugh, think, feel… and then left us too soon. These weren't weak men. They were men crushed by the quiet torment of expectations they could no longer uphold. And the silence that made it impossible to ask for help. So let me say something that might cost me the stamp of being a “real man” in the eyes of some: Hi. My name is JC Doornick, and I get scared about many things. I know some will read that and think I've betrayed the code. That I've "outed the brotherhood." But I'm tired of pretending. I'm tired of losing men I love to silence. To pride. To pressure. To shame. And if sharing my truth helps even one man remove the mask, it's worth it. Because here's the truth: Being a man today is a zero-sum game.   Episode 97 Resources: Under Saturns Shadow by James Hollis  - https://amzn.to/3F4NvAP ►Follow Dr. JC Doornick and the Makes Sense Academy: Instagram: / drjcdoornick   Facebook:  / makessensepodcast   YouTube:  / drjcdoornick     MAKES SENSE PODCAST Welcome to the Makes Sense with Dr. JC Doornick Podcast: This podcast covers topics that expand human consciousness and performance.

Your brain might be sabotaging you without you even knowing it. Millions of us are walking around with invisible brain injuries from childhood falls, sports hits, or even emotional trauma that happened decades ago. These hidden wounds could be why names slip through your memory like water or why you snap at loved ones over nothing.I've spent years diving deep into brain recovery science, and what I've learned will shock you. That concussion you got playing soccer in high school? It's still affecting your focus today. The car accident you barely remember? It might explain your brain fog. Even if you think you've never had a brain injury, the statistics say otherwise - and the symptoms are everywhere.In this conversation with Dr. Scott Sherr, we expose the truth about brain injuries that doctors miss and reveal cutting-edge recovery methods he uses at Hyperbaric Medical Solutions that can regenerate your brain tissue years after the damage occurred. We're talking about therapies that increase oxygen delivery to your brain, technologies that create new blood vessels where dead tissue used to be and simple compounds that can reboot your cellular energy production.The most powerful revelation? Your brain desperately wants to heal itself - it just needs the right conditions and in this episode we break down exactly how to create those conditions./ / / Are you ready to take the next step on your brain optimization journey? / / /Choose your own adventure.

Your brain deletes and distorts information constantly—which means most of what you think you've forgotten was never properly encoded in the first place. I've spent decades studying how memory actually works, and here's what I've discovered: the difference between people who seem to have "photographic" memories and those who struggle isn't genetics or luck. It's technique.Most memory advice focuses on tricks and shortcuts, but I'm going to show you something more fundamental. Your memory operates on three core principles that, once you understand them, will transform how you absorb and retain information. The first principle challenges everything you think you know about why you forget things. The second reveals why exaggeration and emotion aren't just helpful—they're essential for long-term retention. The third explains why trying harder to remember often makes your recall worse.I'll walk you through the exact three-minute daily routine I use to keep my memory sharp, plus the neuroassociative technique that memory champions rely on to store vast amounts of information. You'll also discover why asking the right questions while reading can triple your retention rate, and how the explanation effect can make any new information stick permanently.Your memory isn't fixed. It's trainable. And by the end of this episode, you'll know exactly how to train it./ / / Are you ready to take the next step on your brain optimization journey? / / /Choose your own adventure.

Welcome to today's episode of Making Sense of Domestic Abuse. In the United States alone, over 10 million people experience domestic violence each year. These are not just statistics—they are real stories of pain, resilience, and, ultimately, hope.

Lindsay Abernathy is a mother of four, an accomplished actress, and the host of the podcast Bitch Is A Bad Word: A Domestic Abuse Survivors Guide. Through candid conversations and expert insights, Lindsay empowers survivors to recognize abuse, reclaim their voices, and rebuild their lives.  Lindsay Abernathy's journey is one of transformation. Known for her roles in productions like Fast Five, The Walking Dead, and Avengers Assemble! Lindsay's on-screen presence was a mask for her battle off-screen. As a survivor of domestic violence and abuse, she turned her mess into her message. As an advocate she has created a platform where survivors can find solidarity and strength. Her podcast, Bitch Is A Bad Word, is a testament to her commitment to breaking the silence and stigma surrounding domestic violence.    ►Follow Lindsay Abernathy and Bitch is a Bad Word: Instagram: / nitchisabadwordpod   Youtube: / @BitchIsABadWord Podcast:  / https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/bitch-is-a-bad-word-a-domestic-violence-podcast/id1780948251  Resources: 331-248-2437 (BITCHES) Domestic Abuse Hotline: 24 hour/day - 1-800-799-7233 (SAFE)   Welcome to the Makes Sense with Dr. JC Doornick Podcast: This podcast covers topics that expand human consciousness and performance.

This is One From The Vault of the previous Rise Up With Dragon show where Dragon was building his 15 Days to Discipline and made the powerful distinction that life as we know it is a fantasy created by ourselves.

Ever wonder how someone managing half a trillion dollars daily avoids complete burnout? The secret isn't what most people think – it's not about eliminating stress, but optimizing it.The most successful leaders embrace a shocking truth: they lose almost half the time.I discovered something counterintuitive through this interview: your peak performance doesn't happen at zero stress. Different tasks require different stress levels to unlock your best work. A powerlifter needs high activation for maximum output, while a chess player performs optimally at lower stress levels. Understanding your personal stress curve changes everything about how you approach challenges.Sebastian's journey from nearly dying due to goal-induced blindness to mastering stress allocation reveals why so many high achievers burn out. They're not necessarily doing too much – they're doing too little of what actually matters. When you separate the signal from the noise, stress becomes a tool rather than a burden.This conversation dives deep into the neuroscience of decision-making under pressure, team-level flow states, and why your brain burns 6,000 calories during intense mental work. Sebastian also shares his exact protocols for managing decision fatigue, from his wardrobe automation to breathing techniques before high-stakes TV appearances./ / / Are you ready to take the next step on your brain optimization journey? / / /Choose your own adventure.

What if the way you speak is costing more than just missed connections – perhaps even measurably diminishing your team's effectiveness?I've discovered that transforming how your message lands isn't about some innate talent, but about mastering specific, often counterintuitive techniques. Our guest today is, Bill McGowan, founder and CEO of Clarity Media Group, a two-time Emmy Award–winning correspondent, communication expert and author of Speak, Memorably: The Art of Captivating an Audience. We'll explore how embedding facts within a compelling narrative can make your information a staggering 22 times more memorable and you'll learn how to break free from the common verbal ruts that place you in a comfort zone. Why even something as standard as an agenda slide can sabotage your opening impact and how strategic silence, not filler words, can make your points resonate with far greater precision.This is about ensuring your words don't just get heard, but truly stick./ / / Are you ready to take the next step on your brain optimization journey? / / /Choose your own adventure.

Welcome to another episode of the Makes Sense with Dr. JC Podcast, where confusion dies and progress thrives. Today, we're diving into the dark tunnel many find themselves in around midlife.  But before you turn away, let me tell you—this tunnel might just be the birthplace of your most powerful self. Explore how our breakdowns often lead to our most significant breakthroughs. We're talking about what author and Jungian analyst James Hollis calls The Middle Passage. It's that confusing, destabilizing, often painful stretch of life where the identity you've built begins to crack under its weight. And here's the thing: that's not failure. That's your invitation. That's your soul, banging on the walls of your ego, begging to be heard.   Episode 93 Resources: The Middle Passage by James Hollis  - https://amzn.to/3F4NvAP Andrew Huberman Interview - https://amzn.to/4kcMdmd   ►Follow Dr. JC Doornick and the Makes Sense Academy: Instagram: / drjcdoornick   Facebook:  / makessensepodcast   YouTube:  / drjcdoornick     MAKES SENSE PODCAST Welcome to the Makes Sense with Dr. JC Doornick Podcast: This podcast covers topics that expand human consciousness and performance.

How can you work through the pain, anger, and resentment from childhood caused by the adults in your life?As many of you know, I had a teacher call me the boy with the broken brain. What was a comment intended to keep other kids from picking on me instead became a hurtful label that took years to overcome. Every time I couldn't do a task or assignment; it reinforced the idea that I was broken.This is a topic that is very personal for me. I've had to work through these harmful labels on a personal level before I was able to help others do the same.Adults needs to be very careful with their external words because they often become a child's internal words. Every time that child faces an obstacle, those words will become reinforced. If you have negative labels you're working to overcome so that you can move into a place of healing and transformation, this episode is for you./ / / Are you ready to take the next step on your brain optimization journey? / / /Choose your own adventure.

What if the key to navigating uncertainty and making truly aligned decisions lies not just in logic, but in an ancient wisdom tradition?I was fascinated to learn from Hrund Gunnsteinsdottir about 'Innsæi: Heal, Revive and Reset with the Icelandic Art of Intuition', which she beautifully describes as 'the sea within.' This isn't about vague hunches; it's an effective way to harness unconscious information for better choices and actions, especially when facing the unknown. We delve into how you can cultivate this 'inner compass'—learning to 'see within' to distinguish intuition from biases, and 'see from the inside out' to navigate life's turbulence. Discover why your attention is the gateway to this power and how simple practices, like keeping an attention journal, can help you regain ownership of it. You'll also understand the 'two rhythms' of knowing when to switch between analysis and intuition, transforming how you approach problems and become more prepared for the unexpected. It's about developing this innate skill, like a muscle, for long-term success and a deeper connection to your own inner genius./ / / Are you ready to take the next step on your brain optimization journey? / / /Choose your own adventure.

In today's episode, I sit down with brain coach and best-selling author Jim Kwik to talk about imagination, identity, and the power of rewiring your beliefs. Jim shares how a childhood brain injury and the label “broken brain” shaped his self-image, and how reshaping that identity became the foundation for his work helping others unlock their cognitive potential. We talk about practical ways to protect your mental energy, why learning how to learn is the ultimate skill, and how understanding your unique “brain type” can transform the way you think, work, and connect. This one's all about turning limits into starting points.

Is it possible to recover from a traumatic brain injury?Many of you know I suffered from several traumatic brain injuries when I was younger. Over the years, I've discovered strategies and tactics that have helped me recover. Healing a TBI requires a science-based approach to ensure you're supporting your brain's natural healing process.This is a topic that is very near to my heart. Before we go on, I want to emphasize that I am not a doctor and this is not intended to diagnose or treat any kind of medical condition—aways talk to your healthcare provider.While individual recovery varies depending on so many different things, there are some general practices that will help you heal and recover.

We often focus intensely on mindset, but what if the real key to unlocking your next level lies deeper, within your heart? I explore this with Dean Graziosi, who shares a powerful, previously untold story about hitting rock bottom and how shifting his perspective—not his circumstances—fuelled an incredible comeback. Discover how connecting with purpose generates the courage to act even when you're terrified, turning fear from a roadblock into fuel. Learn why the life you desire might hinge less on the perfect mental strategy and more on the bold, heart-driven decisions you make today, especially when facing uncertainty.

What if the key to unlocking your potential lies not in certainty, but in deliberately seeking the unknown?I sat down with Alex Hutchinson, author of 'The Explorer's Gene: Why We Seek Big Challenges, New Flavors, and the Blank Spots on the Map,' to really dig into the science behind our innate drive to explore.We explore why our brains actually crave novelty (even when it feels uncomfortable) and how navigating that constant "explore-exploit" tension impacts decisions big and small.You'll discover why developing a tolerance for uncertainty and discomfort isn't just for extreme adventurers – it's a trainable skill crucial for growth.Learn how predictive processing helps explain our complex relationship with the unknown and why finding that sweet spot of challenge feels so good.We also discuss how embracing uncertainty often leads to a more meaningful life and Alex shares a simple, powerful habit he uses to keep that exploratory muscle strong, reminding us that small steps into the unfamiliar can yield significant rewards for brain health and personal growth./ / / Are you ready to take the next step on your brain optimization journey? / / /Choose your own adventure.

How do you build a team that genuinely cares for each other?You already know how important building your positive peer group is for your brain. The same principles apply to your team within the workplace. It's common to look at your coworkers or employees as a group of individuals. But what if there was a way to turn your team into a cohesive, collaborative unit?Our guest today challenges the traditional notions of leadership focusing instead on the power of teamship. Keith Ferrazzi is an executive team coach, keynote speaker, and New York Times bestselling author of the iconic book, Never Eat Alone. He's here to talk about his latest book, Never Lead Alone: 10 Shifts from Leadership to Teamship.It isn't important that everyone on your team has the exact same struggle.

Listen in as Keith talks about how to move beyond leadership to develop truly collaborative, supportive, and high-performing teamships./ / / Are you ready to take the next step on your brain optimization journey? / / /Choose your own adventure.
