I walked away from a seven-figure deal—and it changed everything.In this episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast, I'm resharing my interview on The InPowered Life Podcast with my friend Rudi Riekstins and it's one of those conversations that cuts straight to the truth about success, fulfillment, and alignment.We dive into the pivotal moment when I chose to walk away from a seven-figure tech opportunity after realizing that external achievement without internal alignment leads to burnout and emptiness. On paper, everything looked like a win—but internally, something felt off. That decision became a major turning point in my life and ultimately led me down the path that shaped the Happy Hustle philosophy.In this conversation, I share how living abroad in Thailand, stepping away from the grind, and reconnecting with purpose, service, and community helped me redefine what success actually means. We also unpack my S.O.U.L.M.A.P.P.I.N framework—a practical tool designed to assess alignment across the most important areas of life, including health, relationships, service, and meaningful work. This framework has helped thousands of people identify blind spots, create intentional habits, and build lives that feel successful from the inside out.Rudi and I also explore why gratitude is a powerful antidote to the endless pursuit of “more,” how selfless service creates deeper fulfillment, and why community and masterminds are essential for sustainable personal growth. This episode is especially for anyone who feels burned out, boxed in by traditional definitions of success, or quietly wondering, Is this really it?If you've been questioning the old definition of success or feel called to build a life that actually feels good—not just looks good—this episode is a must-listen.Listen to the full episode here: caryjack.com/podcastin

Why do we get stuck on the path of healing—even when we know what to do? In this profound and spiritually charged episode, Lisa A. Romano explores what it truly means to break through the veil—the illusion of the false self that trauma and programming have built around our consciousness. Lisa reveals how trauma rewires the brain to associate authenticity with danger, causing us to abandon our true selves and live from the ego's illusion of safety. Through the lens of neuroscience, psychology, and spirituality, she helps listeners understand why healing requires more than insight—it requires reprogramming the mind and meeting the shadow self head-on. In this episode, you'll learn: ✨ How trauma wires the brain for survival over truth and authenticity

We've all heard the phrase "Manifest Your Destiny" when it comes to wanting a new promotion, figuring out a new career path or just trying to achieve that long-term goal. It turns out that the act of manifestation is not merely pseudoscience—it actually has a body of research in neuroscience to back it up.James Doty was a clinical professor of neurosurgery at Stanford University, and founder and director of the Center for Compassion and Altruism Research and Education. He wrote several books, including Mind Magic: The Neuroscience of Manifestation and How It Changes Everything. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

David Cobb has written an article for Compass Check magazine for teens entitled "Practical Tools For Navigating Anxiety."   It is not just for teens.  Mike Snyder is a crisis communication professional who has worked with mental health care. We discuss three tools you can use to reduce worry. Books recommended in the podcast: Redefining Anxiety: What It Is, What It Isn't, and How to Get Your Life Back is a concise guide by Dr. John Delony, published in November 2020. Drawing from his personal experiences and over two decades in counseling and research, Dr. Delony addresses common misconceptions about anxiety and offers practical steps for managing it. Rewire Your Anxious Brain: How to Use the Neuroscience of Fear to End Anxiety, Panic, and Worry is a comprehensive guide co-authored by psychologist Catherine M. Pittman, PhD, and Elizabeth M. Karle, MLIS. Published in January 2015, the book delves into the neurological underpinnings of anxiety, focusing on the roles of the amygdala and cortex in the brain. It offers evidence-based strategies to manage and alleviate anxiety by addressing both the primal fear responses and the cognitive aspects of worry

Why do so many intelligent, capable people walk into rooms and suddenly feel small? In this episode of the Uncover Your Eyes podcast, Dr. Meenal Agarwal explores the real reason we shrink and why it has far less to do with confidence or imposter syndrome than we've been led to believe. Drawing from neuroscience, visual perception, spatial awareness, and nervous system regulation, Dr. Agarwal explains how "shrinking" is often a biological and spatial response, not a personal flaw. When the nervous system perceives threat — social, cultural, or hierarchical — the body automatically contracts, vision narrows, posture collapses, and confidence drops.

What if the reason you're not moving faster has nothing to do with discipline, motivation, or intelligence and everything to do with time?In this episode, I'm breaking down the Compression Protocol, a core module from Founders Inner Circle, and revealing how high-level founders bend time by manufacturing urgency, collapsing timelines, and forcing their nervous system into execution mode.You'll learn why:Speed is not a skill — it's a constraintPerfectionism is just procrastination in a tuxedoYour brain only enters peak performance when the deadline feels impossibleWe'll unpack how Parkinson's Law quietly destroys momentum, how artificial urgency triggers flow states at a biological level, and how elite operators condense months of work into days using ruthless time compression.This episode introduces practical frameworks like:The 50% Rule for instantly doubling execution speedThe 60-Minute Power Block for zero-friction outputThe concept of weekly sprints instead of monthly goalsListen if you're ready to stop managing time and start bending it.Want to Build and Scale Your Business?

Chris Carter is a researcher and author who approaches the Near-Death Experience (NDE) through a rigorous scientific and philosophical lens. Rather than dismissing NDEs as hallucinations or brain anomalies, Chris examines peer-reviewed studies, verified clinical cases, and cross-cultural accounts to explore what these experiences may reveal about consciousness, the mind-brain relationship, and the possibility that awareness can exist independent of the physical body. His work challenges strict materialist assumptions and invites thoughtful discussion on survival of consciousness, empirical evidence, and the limits of conventional science when confronting extraordinary human experiences.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-x-zone-radio-tv-show--1078348/support.Please note that all XZBN radio and/or television shows are Copyright © REL-MAR McConnell Meda Company, Niagara, Ontario, Canada – www.rel-mar.com.

The dialogue emphasizes the role of theology in understanding existence and the nature of reality, ultimately suggesting that mind may have created matter rather than the other way around.TakeawaysThe question of what came first, mind or matter, has been debated for centuries.The spiritual realm is often posited to have come before the material realm.Modern science tends to assume that matter produced mind, but this is debated.Philosophers like Plato have explored the existence of abstract concepts independent of human minds.The Big Bang Theory suggests that the universe had a beginning, implying a cause.Neuroscience studies indicate that the mind is not confined to the brain.There is no known location in the brain that corresponds to intellect or will.The evidence suggests that mind may have created matter, not the reverse.Theological perspectives provide insights into the nature of existence.Science relies on abstract concepts that cannot be proven by material means.Mentioned in this episode:Victory in 7 Book on Amazon - Get your copy today

Are you ready to stop whining and start winning?In this episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast, we're diving deep into why whining is holding you back, and how optimism is the key to creating your dream reality. If you want to learn how to reframe your mindset, boost your chances of success, and hear my personal mantra for overcoming adversity, this episode is for you!As an entrepreneur, you know the odds are stacked against you. So how do you keep pushing forward when it feels like the deck is always against you?It starts with a mindset. Winners don't dwell on problems—they focus on solutions. When you focus on problems, you manifest more of them. But when you focus on solutions, you open the door to possibilities. Instead of whining about what went wrong, winners ask, “What's next?” Learn from the experience, sure, but move forward with optimism.Focus on the solution, not the problem. Whether in business, relationships, or personal growth, focusing on how you can improve creates more opportunities for success.Let's be real: whining is just another form of excuse-making. “It's too hard,” “I don't have time,” “The market's not right”—sound familiar? Winners know these are just fear-based thoughts holding you back. Instead of whining, winners take ownership and responsibility, like Jocko Willink's philosophy of extreme ownership.If you want to win, stop giving in to excuses and start owning your results. Winners don't let anything stand in their way—least of all themselves.So, how do you shift from a whiner to a winner? It's all about daily habits. Here are three practical tips to get started:Start your day with gratitude: Each morning, write down 5–10 things you're grateful for. This simple practice sets the tone for optimism.Hydrate and energize: Get your body moving with something that gets your blood flowing, like a quick rebounder workout, and rehydrate with green juice or mineral water.Reframe challenges into opportunities: When a problem arises, ask yourself, “How can I turn this into a positive?” instead of focusing on what went wrong.By adopting these habits, you'll naturally start to see challenges as opportunities for growth. And remember, winners visualize their success before it happens.Remember, optimism is a tool for resilience and long-term success. With the right mindset, you'll not only bounce back from adversity faster, but you'll stay in the game longer—and ultimately, you'll win.Connect with Cary!https://www.instagram.com/caryjack/https://www.facebook.com/SirCaryJackhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/cary-jack-kendzior/https://twitter.com/thehappyhustlehttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFDNsD59tLxv2JfEuSsNMOQ/featured Get a free copy of his new book, The Happy Hustle, 10 Alignments to Avoid Burnout & Achieve Blissful Balance https://www.thehappyhustle.com/bookSign up for The Journey: 10 Days To Become a Happy Hustler Online Coursehttps://thehappyhustle.com/thejourney/Apply to the Montana Mastermind Epic Camping Adventurehttps://thehappyhustle.com/mastermind/“It's time to Happy Hustle, a blissfully balanced life you love, full of passion, purpose, and positive impact!”Episode Sponsors:If you're feeling stressed, not sleeping great, or your energy's been kinda meh lately—let me put you on to something that's been a total game-changer for me: Magnesium Breakthrough by BiOptimizers.

Stress isn't just something you think about.It's something your body carries.Every interruption.Every transition.Every responsibility and unspoken emotional load.Your nervous system responds to all of it — and if stress never gets discharged, it doesn't disappear.It settles. It accumulates. In this episode, we're talking about why releasing stress from the body is non-negotiable — and how to do it in ways that are fast, practical, and deeply regulating.You'll learn:✔️ Why unresolved stress — not stress itself — is what exhausts your nervous system✔️ How stored tension lives in your muscles, breath, jaw, and fascia✔️ Three simple somatic techniques that help your body complete the stress cycle✔️ How daily stress discharge lowers reactivity, improves clarity, and restores capacityThis isn't about “calming down” or positive thinking.It's about giving your nervous system what it was biologically designed to do:move stress through instead of storing it inside.If you've been holding it together, powering through, and wondering why your body still feels tight, wired, or heavy — this episode will help you release what you were never meant to carry alone.Related Episodes:Previous EpisodeUnlocking Calm Powerful Somatic Practices to Shift out of Fight, Flight or FreezeBurnout Recovery Blueprint (Part 2): Get Out of Your Head and Into Your Body3 Somatic Practices for Anxiety: Why They Work & How to Do Them5 Somatic Techniques to Regulate When You're Feeling Overwhelmed-- Burnout Recovery Blueprint starts again in January - check it out!

This expansive and deeply reflective episode features Anne-Sophie Flury — neuroscientist, psychology graduate, former PhD researcher, and wellness educator — whose work bridges hard science with lived human experience. Known online as “Coochie by Gucci,” Anne-Sophie brings rare honesty and intellectual clarity to conversations about the brain, trauma, intuition, and emotional agency.Rhona and Payman explore Anne-Sophie's unconventional academic journey, from leaving a business degree for psychology to working in experimental neuroscience and neuropsychopharmacology alongside leading researchers. Together, they unpack why understanding the brain isn't enough — and how learning that the brain can change became the turning point in Anne-Sophie's own mental health and sense of agency.The conversation moves fluidly through modern overwhelm: social media burnout, dopamine addiction, emotional over-identification, and the spiritualisation of feelings. Anne-Sophie offers a grounded, science-based perspective on meditation, psychedelics, mindfulness, and nervous system regulation — cutting through both clinical detachment and performative spirituality.What emerges is a powerful discussion about responsibility without shame, emotional awareness without indulgence, and why separating yourself from your thoughts may be the most liberating skill of all.In This Episode00:00:25 – Returning to Mind Movers & meeting Anne-Sophie00:01:45 – From business to psychology: finding intellectual purpose00:04:15 – Neuroscience, VR research & leaving the PhD00:07:20 – Failure, resilience & unconventional career pivots00:08:30 – “Coochie by Gucci”: identity, grief & online personas00:10:20 – Social media, activism & burnout00:12:30 – Doomscrolling, empathy fatigue & loss of motivation00:14:40 – Perfection culture, comparison & digital disconnection00:18:45 – Psychology vs neuroscience: understanding the brain00:20:05 – Psychedelics, policy & political suppression00:23:00 – What psychedelics actually do to the brain00:27:20 – Mental health, loneliness & early emotional struggles00:30:40 – The moment everything changed: “I can change my brain”00:31:50 – Meditation, neuroplasticity & emotional regulation00:34:00 – Agency, awareness & visualising a different life00:36:00 – Relationships, values & evolving identities00:38:10 – Can core values really change?00:40:10 – Trauma, intuition & emotional misinterpretation00:42:25 – Are we over-validating emotions?00:44:30 – Spiritual bypassing vs real growth00:45:00 – Float tanks, meditation & separating from thought00:48:20 – Anxiety vs intuition: learning the differenceAbout Anne-Sophie FluryAnne-Sophie Flury is a neuroscience and psychology specialist whose work focuses on emotional regulation, nervous system awareness, and personal agency. After completing a psychology degree, a master's in experimental neuroscience, and publishing research during her PhD, she stepped away from academia to make science accessible in the real world.Blending research, lived experience, and practical tools, Anne-Sophie helps people understand not just why they feel the way they do — but how to change it. Her work challenges emotional fatalism, encourages responsibility without self-blame, and reframes mental health as something dynamic rather than fixed.

Psychologists have typically believed that we become less curious as we age, but recent research has shown curiosity actually becomes more targeted and specific in our later years. In this episode from September, Madeleine Finlay hears from Dr Mary Whatley, an assistant professor of psychology at Western Carolina University, and Dr Matthias Gruber of Cardiff University's Brain Research Imaging Centre to find out why we change in this way, and how maintaining broad curiosity into older age can help keep our brains young.

In this special holiday revisited episode of Think Thursday, Molly explores why mental rest is essential for brain health, especially coming out of a season of overstimulation. She explains how modern life is designed to hijack our attention, keeping us in constant reaction mode and depriving the brain of the downtime it needs to function well.Molly breaks down what happens neurologically when the brain is exposed to nonstop input, including cognitive fatigue, reduced creativity, increased stress, and weaker memory consolidation. She revisits the role of the default mode network and explains why creativity and quiet, not constant consumption, are key to restoring mental clarity and emotional regulation.The episode closes with practical, science backed strategies for reclaiming mental rest and intentionally creating space for the brain to recover and thrive.What You'll LearnThe difference between mental rest and sleep or meditationWhy the brain is not designed for constant stimulationHow nonstop input leads to cognitive fatigue and decision fatigueThe role of the default mode network in creativity and problem solvingWhy overstimulation increases stress, anxiety, and emotional reactivityHow modern technology has removed natural stopping points for the brainWhy attention is the product in today's digital economyKey Concepts ExplainedCognitive fatigue from continuous information processingDefault mode network and its role in reflection and creativitySympathetic nervous system activation from constant stimulationMemory consolidation requiring downtime and restAttention as a limited resource that must be protected intentionallyPractical Strategies Shared in the EpisodeSchedule at least 30 minutes of tech free time each dayEmbrace boredom and allow moments of silence without distractionCreate a no phone zone in one part of your day, such as meals or bedtimeReplace scrolling with hands on, real world creativityPrioritize presence over constant consumptionReal World Creativity Ideas MentionedPlaying music or learning an instrumentDrawing, painting, or doodlingWriting by hand through journaling or copying quotesGardening, crafting, sculpting, or woodworkingCreative movement such as dancing, stretching, or mindful walkingWhy Mental Rest MattersMental rest is not wasted time. It allows the brain to process information, regulate emotions, consolidate memory, and restore cognitive energy. Without intentional breaks, the brain stays in reaction mode, making it harder to focus, create, and feel calm.Listener InvitationFor the next 24 hours, find one way to engage in real world creativity with no screens involved.

Debate continues on the nature of the mind. Are our minds purely material and comprised only of our physical brains? Does idealism ring true with its views of physical experiences arising solely from a non-physical mind? Or is a dualist position with aspects of both an accurate view?

Welcome to the weekly communal Schauer, today we're discussing the history of new year's resolutions as well as the neuroscience of making them stick. You might be wondering “why is she taking so long on the phrasing of these goals?” That's a wonderful question *hypothetical* listener and the answer to that is because how you speak to yourself does matter. Decisions are changes, they are pivots - pivots are a rapid change in direction that, if not taken carefully or under control, can cause significant strain and even injury. “But that's muscle strain” - yes, however cognitive strain is also real and can cause you to fear pivots and change in the future. We're taking this slow, step by step, because I'm talking about how to make things stick (grip) so the pivot feels solid and stable! Thank you all for making this year absolutely fabulous, I would not be where I am without all y'all's (2nd person possessive plural pronoun btw) support and feedback. I'm wishing everyone a happy holidays, happy new year, and just a general sense of happiness as it's very much needed. Go easy on yourselves, you got this.

When the future feels unclear, the brain doesn't default to wisdom or creativity - it defaults to prediction and threat reduction. This is why overthinking, overplanning, and constant problem-solving can actually increase stuckness instead of resolving it.We unpack key scientific concepts including:Intolerance of uncertainty and how it drives anxiety, hesitation, and avoidanceThreat perception (amygdala activation) and why change can feel dangerous even when it's logicalRumination loops and why repetitive thinking narrows perception and optionsReward prediction and why the brain can underestimate the benefits of changeWhy familiar stress can feel safer than unfamiliar peaceThis episode explains why you can't outthink a conditioned system - and why clarity doesn't come from analysing more, but from restoring safety and regulation.As the system settles, perception widens. When perception widens, new options become visible. And when the body feels safe enough, action stops feeling forced - and starts feeling obvious.This is not a motivational reset or a “new year, new you” conversation. It's a grounded, science-backed explanation of why you were never broken - and how embodiment, not effort, is what brings you back online.If you've been trying to force clarity, restart your life, or plan your way into change - this episode offers a different path: one that meets the mind with logic, and the body with safety.

Some memories don't fade, they echo. A word, a glance, a moment that keeps the body on alert long after it's passed. Your brain remembers the pain, and your chemistry follows.In this episode of Migraine Heroes Podcast, host Diane Ducarme explores how holding on to anger, guilt, or resentment, keeps your nervous system locked in defense mode. Neuroscience shows that unforgiveness isn't just emotional; it's chemical. And Eastern philosophy has been teaching this for thousands of years: peace is not a mood, it's a biological state.You'll discover:

Today we are discussion advancements in treatment of vascular disease of the brain. Name some of these conditions and how they present themselves: Aneurysms: can be incidentally found or present with headache or subarachnoid hemorrhage; AVM's and AVF's usually present with seizures, hemorrhages, or focal deficits.

Brain-computer interfaces are moving out of the lab and into real medical use. In this episode of The Michael Shermer Show, Michael Shermer talks with Dr. Matt Angle, founder and CEO of Paradromics, a neurotechnology company developing one of the most advanced high-data-rate brain implants in the world, similar to Neuralink. These devices record activity from individual neurons, making it possible to restore speech in people with paralysis, reconnect the brain to external devices, and potentially treat chronic pain and neurological disorders with far greater precision than existing approaches. Angle explains why progress in neuroscience has been limited not by biology, but by data—how much information we can actually read from the brain, and how fast. He describes how patients who can no longer speak may soon communicate fluently using only brain signals, why invasive implants can sometimes be safer than long-term drug treatments, and what it takes to bring a brain implant through FDA approval and into the clinic. The conversation also touches on the larger questions raised by this technology, including autonomy, consciousness, and what happens when the boundary between brain and machine begins to blur. Matt Angle is the Founder and CEO of Paradromics, a neurotechnology leader developing the world's most advanced and clinically viable brain-computer interface (BCI) platform—bridging human thought and digital capability. Paradromics' BCI platform records brain activity with unmatched precision, capturing data at the level of individual neurons. This advanced technology enables the decoding of vast amounts of brain data, opening the door to next-generation treatments for paralysis, chronic pain, addiction, mental health conditions, and more. With the power of AI, this platform has the potential to radically shift how healthcare providers approach some of the most challenging medical conditions. Angle earned his PhD in Neuroscience from the University of Heidelberg, followed by postdoctoral research at Stanford University. Paradromics engineered its first clinical product, the Connexus® BCI, received two FDA Breakthrough Device Designations, and performed the first-in-human neural recording in May 2025. The company is now preparing to launch a clinical trial in early 2026, pending regulatory approval.

Most people don't fail because they lack discipline or desire.They fail because they misdiagnose what's happening inside their own brain.In this episode, Dr. Dee Poskas reveals why “being stuck” is not a personality flaw, why doubt is meant to slow impulsivity — not stop progress — and how disappointment quietly shapes risk, leadership, and decision-making. If you've ever felt busy but stagnant, driven but blocked, or successful but unsatisfied, this conversation will change how you see yourself — and how you move next.Key TakeawaysWhat “being stuck” actually means psychologicallyWhy doubt is a yield sign, not a stop signFalse flagging theory and impulsivityBurnout vs decision paralysis vs overcommitmentWhy most people misdiagnose their stuck cycleThe neuroscience behind disappointmentDisappointment stacking and risk avoidanceHead, heart, and gut brain alignmentWhy high achievers overwork and still stallHow better diagnosis leads to faster growth

Dr. Isabelle Amigues unpacks why patients often recover better, faster, and more deeply in a supportive group. From mirror neurons and oxytocin to vagus nerve activation and the power of clinician belief, she explains how community and medicine accelerates remission—then previews UnabridgedMD's upcoming physician-led healing cohorts.What You'll Learn:From competition to collaboration: How traditional, competitive medical training contrasts with the superior outcomes of team-based care—and why adding patients to the care team elevates results.The brain science of group healingMirror neurons: observing others practice skills (e.g., injections, PT) improves your own learning and adherence.Oxytocin up, cortisol down: group practices (breath, chant, yoga) boost bonding hormones and reduce stress chemistry—fertile ground for recovery.Vagus nerve / parasympathetic activation: group rituals nudge the nervous system into “rest-and-repair,” lowering inflammation.Placebo power, reframed: Why clinician belief and a supportive cohort measurably enhance outcomes (a reason trials are double-blind)—and how to harness that effect ethically.Mindset shapes pain: Attention directs perception; scanning for what's working reduces pain. Group programs for chronic pain (e.g., back pain) consistently show greater relief and fewer relapses than going solo.Medication and milieu: Biologics and DMARDs are powerful tools, but outcomes improve further when paired with community practices that activate anti-inflammatory pathways.Safety, accountability, momentum: Groups create a psychologically safe space to try new habits, show up consistently, and stay on track—especially valuable in rheumatologic conditions.What's next at UnabridgedMD: A webinar and physician-led community cohorts designed to help patients reach and sustain remission through evidence-based medical care plus group-based nervous-system and lifestyle practices.If a trusted group could help you heal 25–40% faster, what habit or symptom would you choose to transform first?

Episode Description Can unprocessed emotions sabotage your manifestation? Neuroscience reveals why positive thinking alone never works. Most manifestation advice keeps you stuck. Affirmations, vision boards, and "good vibes only" ignore the critical factor: your nervous system runs programs you can't see—and those hidden emotional loops block everything you're trying to create. Christy Whitman, New York Times bestselling author of The Flow Factor with 25+ years of subconscious reprogramming experience, exposes the truth: You cannot attract abundance while trapped in survival mode. This is the science of why your prefrontal cortex—your creative, manifesting brain—shuts down when unprocessed trauma activates your stress response. Your brain doesn't distinguish between what you consciously want and what your subconscious emotional imprints keep recreating. That's why you attract the same toxic relationships, financial patterns, and dead-end situations—no matter how hard you visualize. Christy reveals the biological mechanism behind "stuckness" and introduces The 90-Second Shift—a somatic technique that rewires your nervous system, clearing emotional blocks that sabotage manifestation. Discover: • Why self-compassion (not self-criticism) is the gateway to real manifestation • The neuroscience of "bushwhacking"—how single traumatic moments create energetic vortexes attracting painful experiences • Why focusing on your soul's essence (not surface desires) unlocks true abundance • The Three Buckets of Vibration: Lack, Neutrality, and Freedom—and how to shift between them • How unprocessed emotions fill your "container" so gratitude and joy have nowhere to land • The Law of Polarity: why contrast and discomfort are your greatest manifestation teachers • Breaking generational trauma patterns keeping families stuck in scarcity cycles • The myth of "spiritual bypassing"—why you must feel emotion to release it • The somatic touch protocol activating your vagus nerve within seconds Here's the truth: You can't pour abundance into a nervous system flooded with unprocessed fear. Until you clear the emotional debris creating low-frequency patterns, you'll keep manifesting from lack, no matter what your affirmations say. If you've been doing "all the manifestation work"—journaling, visualizing, affirming—but still hitting walls, this episode reveals the missing piece your spiritual teachers never measured.

In this powerful episode of Mindset Mastery Moments, Dr. Alisa Whyte sits down with Kyle Anthony Trautmann, a neuroscience-based transformation expert whose life is living proof that real change is possible—no matter how deep the fall.After surviving 44 overdoses and a near-fatal brain injury, Kyle rebuilt his mind, identity, and purpose. Today, he has helped over 4,000 people break free from burnout, limiting beliefs, and identity loops using a science-backed approach rooted in Energy Literacy and Cognitive Recalibration—without spiritual bypassing or surface-level motivation.As the founder of High Vibe Holonomics and the upcoming Holonomic Institute (launching July 2025), Kyle blends cutting-edge neuroscience with ancient healing principles to create sustainable, measurable transformation. His work has produced a 94% close rate and generated $46,000 from a single podcast appearance, proving that authenticity and alignment outperform hustle and hype.In this episode, Kyle and Dr. Alisa unpack:Why burnout isn't a failure—it's a neurological signalHow belief systems are formed (and how to recalibrate them)The danger of spiritual bypassing in personal developmentWhat real, lasting transformation actually requiresHow trauma can become purpose when healing is done correctlyThis conversation is raw, grounded, and deeply practical—especially for high-achievers, entrepreneurs, and purpose-driven professionals who are ready to stop surviving and start transforming.

Amid the rise of billion-parameter models, I argue that toy models, with just a few neurons, remain essential—and may be all neuroscience needs.

If going home for the holidays leaves you anxious, exhausted, or feeling like you're twelve years old again, this is not emotional weakness. This is your nervous system.When you're around your family of origin, the oldest wiring in your brain comes back online. These patterns were built before you had adult self-regulation. Your limbic system reacts fast, old roles resurface, and your regulated adult self can get pushed offline without you realizing it.What you're experiencing is neurological conditioning, not failure. And this season is an opportunity to do something different. You can interrupt the hijack, respond instead of react, and stay grounded even when everyone around you is not.Family of Origin Dysfunction: Why Going Home Dysregulates Your Brain
