Over 8 episodes, the podcast covers, Bryson's birth and diagnosis, gene editing technology like CRISPR, creating a mouse model of Bryson's disease, and a 'pilgrimage' to Boston - the global epicentre of biotechnology and rare disease research. In this live podcast, listeners had the chance to ask Keith their own questions about rare disease life, research, and the future of patient-powered research.
Dr. Brian Goldman talks to Keith McArthur, the creator and host of the CBC podcast "Unlocking Bryson's Brain.” McArthur's son Bryson has a severe genetic disorder that's so rare it took nearly a decade to get a diagnosis. Now 13, Bryson is a happy kid, but his illness means he can't walk, talk or feed himself, and he's thought to have a mental age of a one-year-old. The “‘medical mystery” series chronicles McArthur's search to find more information about Bryson's condition, known as a GRIN disorder — and his quest to find a cure.
Keith McArthur is the co-lead for the CureGRIN Foundation and has developed the amazing podcast, Unlocking Bryson’s Brain. The series tells the story of Bryson, his rare disease and his family’s search for a cure.
When Keith McArthur’s son Bryson was born, he was a happy and loving baby. Soon, though, Bryson began missing developmental milestones and doctors determined he had a neurological disorder. After nearly a decade, Bryson was diagnosed with a variant in his GRIN1 gene. Keith McArthur, who today is CEO and head of science for the CureGRIN Foundation, tells Bryson’s story in an eight-part podcast series produced with the CBC called Unlocking Bryson’s Brain (Hyperurl.co/Bryson). We spoke to McArthur about Bryson, the efforts of the CureGRIN Foundation to find a cure for the condition, and what he hope to accomplish with the podcast series.

This week on the podcast, I am re-broadcasting my conversation with Keith McArthur because NEW YEAR NEW YOU, right? Keith is the author of the book, “Winning Resolutions: Achieve Your Biggest Goals and Wildest Dreams Once and For All.” He’s also the creator of My Instruction Manual, a website, podcast and book series providing high-quality personal development and content. I’ve been on Keith’s podcast twice and know him to be an amazing interviewer. So, about a year ago, I released an episode called, “New Year New You” (ep 262), in which I said, loud and clear, that you do not need a morning routine or for that matter, any routine that doesn’t fit your lifestyle. But yet, I also realize that the new year can be overwhelming for many. That’s why I invited Keith to the show to talk about ways to calm the New Year overwhelm, help shift our mindset around goal setting, and share what he knows about our environment and how it can affect goal achieving. Plus, he shares what values, shame and commitment have to do with it all. In this episode you’ll hear: Why we put so much pressure on ourselves at the start of a new year and how shame comes into play (11:49) Keith’s take on the “New Year, New You” mentality (13:27) The biggest mistake people make when creating a goal or resolution. Plus, some science-based strategies for achieving your biggest, baddest goals (16:19) How an accountability partner can help you with goals and the science behind finding the right accountability partner (25:03) Some ways to get back on track if you lose sight or abandon a goal, hint: think ahead! (27:43) Taking control of your environment and some ways to structure your environment for goal success (40:34) Lastly, my new creative project with Amy Smith, Not Another Self-Help Podcast drops THIS FRIDAY, January 3rd!

On a sunny, spring day in 2016 doctors told Keith McArthur his kidneys were about to fail. Over the next 12 months they continued to break down, no longer able to filter toxins. Poisons built up in his body and brain. He began to feel sick and tired and confused. After a life-saving transplant from one of his sisters, and despite being a lifelong skeptic, Keith began "ingesting every self-help resource [he] could get [his] hands on." No longer convinced they were all "written by charlatans and mansplainers," he began a journey to discover how to truly live. As he writes in his new book, 18 Steps to Own Your Life: Simple Powers for a Healthier, Happier You, “It’s not like I was unhappy before…but something was missing. Like most of us, I never really learned how to be human. No really. So, I made a decision to learn the skills I needed to finally own my life.” In this conversation, we cover Keith's powerful story and insights about life before and after almost dying from kidney failure, lessons from raising a child with severe mental and physical disabilities, how he listens to his body's signals more after the operation, and what it means to "permit the pivot."
Stephanie McArthur shares her experience of donating a kidney with podcast host Keith McArthur, who also happens to be her brother and recipient of the very same kidney. And nutrition contributor Michelle Jaelin talks about how to stay healthy when eating at restaurants.
