Are you loving it? Send Ash a text! Hi sister friend. Back at it again... and today, we're slowing all the way down. Because somewhere between instant coffee, instant Amazon deliveries, and instant validation, we forgot that most things worth building take time.This one's your permission slip to take the long way, to build something that lasts, to stop chasing the dopamine hit of “fast results,” and to start measuring success by how alive and at peace you feel, not by how fast it happens.Real success, I mean the sustainable, fulfilling, nervous-system-safe kind... is slow. It's mornings where you show up with zero proof it's working. It's boring consistency. It's quiet trust. Let's talk about that.TOPICS & TANGENTS:• How social media rewired our brains for instant gratification• Why we mistake impatience for failure• The hidden cost of “I need it now” energy• Why most people quit before the results land (it's not lack of strategy, it's lack of stamina)• The difference between capacity and compulsion• What it means to practice active faith instead of frantic action • Building a pace you can hold for years... not just a season • Success measured in peace, presence, and patiencePOINT OF THE STORY:Patience isn't passive. It's power. It's self-trust in motion, the willingness to stay with what's working long enough for it to work for you.MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:• My chat with Sophia Parra on Marketing Unfiltered — all about high-functioning burnout, what happened when I tried to be “more professional,” and how I rebuilt my business with nervous-system-led marketing. • The Anxious Generation by Jonathan Haidt — a must-read on how tech reshaped our brains and attention spans. • If Only I Had a Bigger Kitchen — reflections on simplicity, home, and redefining “enough.” • The Regulated Woman — my signature mentorship for women ready to grow slow, steady, and sustainably.POINT TO REMEMBER:The kind of success that lasts? It's unsexy consistency. The mornings you show up without proof. The long road that makes you come alive.Take the long way. You'll actually enjoy the view.MORE ABOUT ASHI am the definition of duality — I swear like a sailor and break rules like it's my job, but I also hold incredible space for my clients and work my ass off to help them achieve the success they're after. But I'm also here for the non-preneur woman, too. My background in counseling gives me a unique perspective on what it means to show up, serve, & create connection for those who feel like they've never belonged before.

In this episode, Earl and Mariam dive deep into The Neuroscience of Gratitude—breaking down what actually happens in your brain when you pause and say “thank you.” From activating the medial prefrontal cortex and the nucleus accumbens to boosting dopamine and serotonin, gratitude turns into a natural mood-reset button that lowers stress and strengthens your emotional resilience.Together, Earl and Mariam explore how Hebb's Law (“neurons that fire together, wire together”) explains why gratitude literally rewires your brain for positivity. They also share fun and creative ways to practice gratitude—like memory jars, journal art, vision boards, and gratitude letters—that help you turn science into everyday rituals.Whether you're crafting, journaling, or looking to shift your mindset, this episode shows how just 15 minutes of gratitude can help transform your mood, strengthen relationships, and build long-lasting emotional balance.Educational purposes only—always consult a healthcare professional for emotional or physical concerns.
Think setting boundaries is just about manners? It's actually a vital tool for brain repair. In this insightful episode, Coach Jason explains the neuroscience of 'No' and why setting limits is critical to long-term alcohol-free success. Discover how consistent boundaries strengthen your prefrontal cortex (your brain's CEO), weaken old cravings through extinction learning , and create a neurological buffer against the stress that activates your amygdala.

As we come to the end of this week's exploration, this final meditation invites us to pause and look back on the path we've walked — the insights uncovered, the moments of stillness, and the courage it took to sit with what is often most difficult: fear and uncertainty. Throughout the week, we've learned to meet these emotions not as enemies, but as messengers — guiding us toward greater awareness, resilience, and trust in life's unfolding. Each practice has helped us build a foundation: grounding in the body, calming the mind, opening the heart, and reconnecting with our inner strength. Today's meditation is a space of integration — a gentle review of how these practices have touched us, shifted us, or simply reminded us of what's already within. It's an opportunity to honor your own effort, to acknowledge the growth that may be quiet but steady, and to recognize that the tools you've developed are always available, even when uncertainty returns. As we begin, allow yourself to settle with a sense of gratitude — for the journey, for the lessons, and for your willingness to face fear with awareness and compassion.

Today, we focus on the most direct tool for interrupting the panic response: your breath. Using a specific, rhythmic pattern, we'll actively send a signal of safety directly to your brain's fear center, allowing you to release the grip of uncertainty and find an immediate, non-negotiable moment of calm.

Is artificial intelligence making life easier—or making our minds weaker? In this episode of The Healthier Tech Podcast, we dive into how over-reliance on artificial intelligence may be reshaping the way we think, learn, and create. Our host unpacks the fascinating concept of cognitive offloading, where we hand off mental work to machines that do it faster, smarter, and with fewer mistakes. But what happens when we stop using those cognitive muscles ourselves? Are we trading convenience for long-term clarity? You'll hear about: How constant use of artificial intelligence might dull memory, creativity, and decision-making. The neuroscience behind why our brains "shut off" when tech takes over thinking. Why relying on artificial intelligence to write, plan, and decide could be changing how we trust ourselves. Practical ways to keep your brain active while still benefiting from smart tools. How to make artificial intelligence your thinking partner, not your mental replacement. This episode blends psychology, philosophy, and digital wellness in a way that's deeply relatable. From writing emails to finding directions, you'll recognize just how much thinking you've quietly outsourced—and how to reclaim it. If you're passionate about living consciously with technology, this is the wake-up call you'll want to hear.

Have you ever remembered something so vividly that it feels etched into your bones — only to have someone look at you blankly and say, “That never happened”? Have you ever started to wonder if maybe you're the one who's losing your mind? If so, you know the disorienting pain of questioning your own reality. In this episode, Tony Overbay, LMFT, unpacks what happens when your memory becomes the battleground in a relationship with an emotionally immature or narcissistic partner. When every disagreement seems to rewrite history, your sense of truth can start to unravel — not because you're broken, but because your brain and body have been conditioned to survive confusion. Tony explores how: Cognitive dissonance makes you doubt what you know is true Gaslighting and confabulation distort shared reality The false self uses denial to avoid shame Chronic emotional stress rewires your nervous system and memory Tools like gray rocking and self-regulation help you reclaim peace Through clinical examples, evidence-based research, and hope, this episode reveals how to rebuild trust in your own perception — and why remembering that you were there is the first step toward healing.

In today's episode, I sit down with world-renowned brain coach and bestselling author Jim Kwik, whose book Limitless has inspired millions to expand what they believe is possible. After a childhood brain injury left him struggling to learn, Jim turned that experience into a mission to teach others how to reprogram their minds for growth. We talk about why 40% of daily behavior runs on autopilot, how environment shapes lasting habits, and how mindset, motivation, and method define personal success. From improving memory and focus to building mental resilience, Jim shares practical strategies from Limitless for training your brain to perform at its best.

Your brain's default setting is survival—not strategy.And that could be the hidden reason you keep hitting the same growth ceilings in your business.In this episode, host Doug C. Brown sits down with Mitch Weisburgh to explore how outdated belief systems, stress responses, and emotional reactivity quietly sabotage decision-making—even in high performers.If you're scaling a company, managing a team, or leading under pressure, this episode is your roadmap for thinking more clearly—and leading more intentionally.
Neuroscience suggests that the brain cannot clearly distinguish between a vividly imagined event and a real-life experience. This means visualization isn't just daydreaming; it's powerful, practical mental rehearsal. Today, we leverage this research to consciously program a fearless mindset. We will create a detailed, sensory-rich 'Future Self'—a version of you who acts with unwavering courage—and step into that identity, creating new neural pathways that reinforce boldness. This is the foundation of becoming fearless. WELCOME TO THIS WEEK'S SERIES: Becoming Fearless: Breaking the Habit of Hesitation Welcome to this week's new series! It's time to stop just managing fear and start actively building unstoppable confidence that lasts. This week, we're providing you with a complete, actionable toolkit—from ancient breathwork and hand mudras to modern neuroscience techniques—to fundamentally rewire your mind for courage. Join us for this transformative journey, and discover the powerful, decisive person you are meant to be. This is day 1 of a 7-day meditation series, "Becoming Fearless: Breaking the Habit of Hesitation," episodes 3388-3394. YOUR WEEKLY CHALLENGE Go on a 1% Courage Quest: Identify and execute one small act of courage every single day. This isn't about skydiving; it's about pushing the edge of your comfort zone by just 1%. This could be: asking a difficult question, turning off your phone for an hour, starting a difficult conversation, or submitting an idea you've been holding back. YOUR MEDITATION JOURNEY DURING THIS WEEK'S SERIES Day 1: Visualizing yourself as fearless Day 2: Affirmation: "I am safe to be bold."

Clinical psychologist Faust Ruggiero discusses his article "How to rewire your brain with positive language." Faust explains how the words we use internally shape our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, and why negative self-talk can reinforce cycles of anger and dissatisfaction. He introduces a simple but powerful two-step process: consciously shutting down angry thoughts as they arise and replacing them with positive statements. Faust emphasizes that this is a neurological retraining program, requiring repetition and patience, but over time it can shift self-perception, improve relationships, and foster lasting emotional resilience. Listeners will gain practical strategies for breaking negative thought cycles and cultivating a more positive, productive mindset. Our presenting sponsor is Microsoft Dragon Copilot.

Breaking Free from Hidden Patterns and Rewiring Your Brain for Success Rewire Your Brain: Adele Spraggon on Breaking Free from Hidden Patterns Like many of you, I've seen firsthand how money stories and old habits can run our lives without us even realizing it. I work with business owners every day who want more profit, more freedom, but they're trapped in repeating cycles—just like I've been in my own journey. Our guest today, Adele Spraggon, is an award-winning author, international speaker, and behavioral change expert. In her book Shift: 4 Steps to Personal Empowerment, Adele reveals how the brain runs on hidden patterns that keep us stuck—and more importantly, how to rewire them for freedom and success. This isn't about willpower or positive thinking. It's about giving your brain the tools to let go of what no longer serves you, and allowing new patterns to emerge that fit the life you actually want. 5 Key Insights from Adele Spraggon: We Live by Patterns, Not Choices. Most of what we call “decisions” are actually neural pathways our brain built in the past. We're on autopilot more than we realize. Reflection: Which area of your life feels stuck on repeat Change Happens by Subtraction, Not Addition. Instead of piling on more strategies, affirmations, or tools, Adele teaches that true freedom comes by removing unhelpful patterns. Reflection: What would shift if you stopped adding solutions and simply let go of the root problem? The Body Holds the Truth. While the mind replays the past and projects the future, the body is always in the present. By tuning into sensations and emotions, we discover the real issues beneath the surface. Reflection: What is your body telling you about the problems you keep circling? Surrender is Not Weakness. Letting go isn't giving up—it's becoming a witness to what's actually happening inside. From that space, old patterns naturally dissolve. Reflection: Where in your life are you resisting instead of surrendering? Identity is Fluid, Not Fixed. We're not one static self. We're shape-shifters, capable of adopting new identities as we rewire our brains. Change is easier than we think—once we know how. Reflection: Who could you become if you stopped clinging to outdated labels? Money Learnings: Adele grew up in a home where money was either abundant or scarce, with nothing in between. That volatility shaped her early patterns around spending and saving—habits that drained her account as quickly as money came in. Her story is a reminder: your financial results often mirror the unconscious money patterns you inherited. Until you rewire them, the cycle continues. Key Takeaway: True empowerment doesn't come from forcing yourself to be different. It comes from recognizing the brain patterns that no longer serve you and giving yourself permission to let them go. About Adele Spraggon: Adele Spraggon is an award-winning author, international speaker, and trainer recognized for her expertise in behavioral change. She has been awarded the 2020 Woman of Inspiration Award and is the author of Shift: 4 Steps to Personal Empowerment. With a master's degree in humanities, a lifetime of teaching, and a deep study of neuroscience and psychology, Adele helps people across the globe break free from hidden mental patterns and step into lives of freedom, peace, and purpose. Through her work, Adele has empowered thousands to rewrite their inner programming, overcome self-sabotage, and unlock the adaptability that makes change not only possible, but natural.

I gave up sugar a while ago and wish I had done it even sooner. Before, I dealt with low energy, brain fog, and restless nights. Now I sleep deeply, feel energized, and enjoy clear mental clarity after quitting sugar. Sugar also depletes vitamin B1, critical for optimal brain health, nerve function, and autonomous nervous system regulation. No wonder a high-sugar diet causes fatigue, anxiety, poor focus, and long-term damage to brain health.Just three weeks without sugar gives your brain a reset, helping reduce cravings and breaking the cycle of sugar addiction. Quitting sugar doesn't just benefit the brain! It also supports your organs, brightens skin, protects vision, strengthens the heart, promotes metabolic balance, and makes it easier to maintain a healthy weight.

What if your brain held the keys to living longer and healthier? In this solo episode, I dive into the fascinating intersection of neuroscience and longevity, unpacking how the nervous system shapes resilience, recovery, and the aging process. Drawing on both science and personal experience, I'll explore how practices like meditation, nervous system training, and targeted stimulation can help us unlock more years and better years.

In this episode we continue our conversation with Tera Fazzino all about how to rewire your brain and taste buds to break free from the grip of hyper-palatable foods. We get into the science of how these foods can literally change your brain's reward circuitry—much like addictive substances—and why they can make you want them more even as you enjoy them less. Tera shares practical tips for spotting these foods at the store, simple swaps that make a difference, and how to retrain your palate to genuinely crave whole, natural foods.To hear the rest of this bonus episode, come join the Foodie Fam!If you want more, check out our book!Chat with us on IG!https://www.instagram.com/foodweneedtotalk/?hl=enBe friends with Juna on IG and Tiktok!https://www.instagram.com/theofficialjuna/https://www.tiktok.com/@junagjata Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices

The good news? With intentional use and neurofeedback, we can restore brain function and reclaim our attention. In this episode, neuroscientist Dr. Trish Leigh reveals how "supernormal stimuli" are hijacking our dopamine systems. Pornography produces up to 400% dopamine increase (nearly cocaine-level at 450%), while screens resonate at 60 Hz, pushing brain activity into overdrive. Healthy calm focus operates at 10 Hz, but prolonged screen exposure creates the "wired-and-tired" brain simultaneous fast and slow brainwave activity leading to anxiety, poor focus, and depression. Dr. Leigh reveals how excessive screen time creates measurable brain dysfunction. Her solution: intentional balance and neurofeedback to restore optimal brainwave patterns. Recovery is possible at any age by replacing digital stimulation with real-world experiences. Don't let technology control you, learn to control it.

In this episode of the PCOS Repair Podcast, you'll discover how the neuroscience behind a growth mindset and intrinsic motivation directly impacts your ability to follow through on healthy habits. This topic goes beyond our usual conversations about nutrition or supplements, this is about what actually drives you to take action when managing PCOS starts to feel overwhelming. While the research article explored in this episode isn't specific to PCOS, its findings shed light on how your brain processes effort, setbacks, and progress, making it incredibly relevant to your journey with hormone balance and lifestyle changes.A Growth Mindset and Why It Matters for PCOSYou'll learn how a growth mindset, the belief that your skills and abilities can develop over time, can rewire how your brain responds to challenges. When things get hard, your brain can either shut down or shift into learning mode. In this episode, you'll hear how neuroscience studies show real, observable changes in the brain among those with a strong growth mindset, and how this sets the stage for building lasting habits that support hormone health and PCOS symptom improvement.Understanding Intrinsic Motivation and How to Spark ItThis episode also breaks down the role of intrinsic motivation, which is the internal drive to do something because it aligns with your goals, not because someone else told you to do it. You'll explore how intrinsic motivation is tied to your brain's reward system and why it's so essential for consistency in your health habits. When you choose a challenge that feels meaningful and achievable, your brain gives you a natural boost of dopamine, creating positive reinforcement that keeps you going. This is the kind of motivation that sustains long-term lifestyle changes, even when external results like weight loss or symptom relief take time.Creating Habits That Support Hormone Balance from the Inside OutAs you apply these neuroscience insights to your PCOS journey, you'll begin to see how small wins, like remembering to pack your gym bag or prepping meals ahead, become daily rewards that train your brain for long-term motivation. In this episode, you'll be encouraged to focus on process over perfection, celebrate the steps you're taking, and use your mindset as a tool to stay in tune with your body rather than getting discouraged by slow or fluctuating results.Rewiring Your Brain for Sustainable Health ChangesYou'll also learn how neuroplasticity, the brain's ability to change and grow—makes it possible to train yourself to stay motivated and resilient over time. Instead of viewing setbacks as failure, you'll start asking better questions and problem-solving with more confidence. This shift in how you think allows you to stay engaged in the process of healing and creates an upward spiral of progress that's sustainable and empoweringThis episode offers a new lens through which to view PCOS healing, not just as a checklist of things to do, but as an opportunity to grow into a healthier, more empowered version of yourself.You can take the quiz to discover your root cause hereThe Neuroscience of Growth Mindset and Intrinsic MotivationLet's continue the conversation on Instagram!

Triggers and Activators Are More Than Buzzwords: We clarify that “triggers” (or “activators”) are events that alter our nervous system, often deeply rooted in past traumas, not just everyday disappointments.In this conversation, Jeff shares a personal story about how traumatic events from our past, big or small, can leave lasting marks on our nervous system and influence our emotions well into the future. Our discussion takes a thoughtful look at how emotional intelligence (EQ) can help us navigate and manage these triggers, not by erasing them, but by developing new ways of thinking and responding.We emphasize the importance of curiosity instead of judgment when reflecting on emotional responses and describe how, just like updating outdated computer software, we can “upgrade” our mindsets and beliefs to function better in today's world.This episode offers practical strategies, a few laughs, and a poignant reminder that while working through our triggers takes effort and sometimes outside help, the journey is well worth it, and none of us has to go it alone. Whether you're looking to understand your own emotional responses or support someone else, there's something here for everyone looking to grow on their EQ journey.Here are 3 key takeaways for you:Triggers = Old Neural Pathways: Our emotional triggers are often rooted in past events that created neural pathways in our brains—think of it as “old software” that keeps running unless we update it through intentional effort and curiosity.EQ is a Learnable Tool: Emotional intelligence isn't a magic fix, but it's a powerful, learnable skill to help us recognize, understand, and slowly reprogram our responses to triggers. This process requires work, but that's where real growth happens.Curiosity Over Judgment: The first step to transforming our experience is curiosity, not blame. By exploring past emotions without judgment, we can identify which beliefs still serve us, and which need updating.Key Moments00:00 Trauma's Impact on the Brain03:59 Navigating Triggers with Emotional Intelligence07:12 Building New Neuroconnections11:53 Curiosity in Emotional Reflection13:28 "Rewire Thoughts, Question Core Beliefs"18:12 "Creating Space for Energy Renewal"21:38 "Simple Complexity of Auto Repair"23:41 "The Insidious Influence of Wealth"26:40 "What Happens When the Wizard's Power Fades?"30:28 Thinking, Fast vs. SlowIn each episode, Jeff and Eric will talk about what emotional intelligence, or understanding your emotions, can do for you in your daily and work life.

"Most people are going to go to the grave with the music inside of them, unplayed."- Oliver Wendell Holmes. In today's episode, I sit down with author and speaker Mary Marantz for a conversation that will light a fire under you in the best way. Mary shares how she approaches life with urgency, not fear, because she knows the clock is ticking and the dreams in her heart deserve action.

We talk about what it means to stop waiting for the perfect moment, and how your brain can be trained to do hard things on purpose. She discusses Predictive Brain Theory, perfectionism, the desire to fast-forward through the hard parts of chasing your dreams, self-sabotage, and why most people give up before consistency ever kicks in. If you've felt stuck in fear, paralyzed by procrastination, or are just tired of sitting on the sidelines of your own life, this episode will challenge you to stop waiting and go do the thing.
