Ever feel like you're just not cut out for that whole "meal prep for weeks in advance" thing? Well, guess what? It's not you. It's the system. And joining me to shed some light on this is the one and only Mihn Thong, a Costco connoisseur and long-time employee as well as an undercover exercise physiologist with a knack for turning meal prep into an art form. Now, let me tell you, I stumbled upon Mihn while he was helping me sort out my son's glasses order, and boy, did I hit the jackpot. See, like many of us, I've struggled with meal prep, finding it overwhelming and frankly, a bit of a chore. But when Mihn dropped the knowledge bomb that "it takes the same time to prepare 10 meals as it does 1 meal," I knew I had to dig deeper. (He indulged me with an impromptu interview). Mihn's secret? Efficiency, my friends. Armed with a vacuum pack saver and a deep freezer, he transforms ordinary cooking into a money-saving masterpiece. He breaks it down into four essential categories: main staples, vegetables, proteins, and carbohydrates, ensuring each meal is not only budget-friendly but also packs a punch in the health department. And let me tell you, this isn't just about saving a few bucks. It's about reclaiming your time and sanity. Mihn's approach isn't just about meal prep—it's about brain efficiency. And with his youthful looks defying his age (seriously, he's in his 40s but looks like he's barely out of his 20s), he's been fine-tuning this system since his athletic teen years. So if you're tired of the meal prep struggle bus, do yourself a favor and give Mihn a follow, like, and share. And hey, if you're feeling extra generous, buy us a coffee so we can gear up for part 2 of this conversation and beyond. Until next time, stay curious, stay hungry, and keep those neurons firing. This is Shonte Jovan Taylor, the neuroscientist, SIGNING OFF. Link to buy us caffeine-->(https://www.buymeacoffee.com/neuroscientist)

(www.shontejtaylor.com) Shonte gives us detailed insight into how the brain functions and how you can begin to tap into the power of your Brain to unleash unlimited possibilities. She shares 7 strategies that you can begin to apply in your life which will start the process of building a more resilient brain.

What does it take to be a thought leader? Not just to guide your team, but to help them think differently -- to encourage them to reframe how the systems we live in work? In this episode of Coffee with a Neuroscientist, host Shonte Jovan Taylor partners with Dr. Ryeal Simms, Neuropsychologist and Relationship Expert, to talk about thought leadership; and, no surprise here, it all starts with your actual thoughts. Shonte and Dr. Ryeal take a neuroscience-based approach to thought leadership as they explore the five activities you need to engage in to become a true thought leader: 1) learning about the brain, 2) diversity and inclusion, 3) socialization, 4) collaboration, and 5) attending events. With tons of wild neuroscience wisdom (80% of our communication is non-verbal?!), Shonte and Dr. Ryeal dive deep into the magical brain to help you take your industry to the next level. Quotes “In order to be an advanced leader in the 21st century, you have to learn about your brain.” (17:53-17:58) “Leadership is a whole brain experience.” (28:20-28:23) Links www.OptiMindInstitute.com
Do you really know your own brain? In this episode of Coffee with a Neuroscientist, host Shonte Jovan Taylor talks with OptiMind Institute graduate, consultant, coach, and successful speaker Alycia Huston about how her time in the OptiMind Institute changed her career, her ability to support her coaching clients, and even her family life. For Alycia, OptiMind was about taking a step back, and looking at the world at a higher level. During the recession, Alycia was the CEO of a pharmaceutical company that lost 40% of its revenue virtually overnight. In that moment, she was frazzled, panicked, and living in fear. Now, during another recession and the COVID-19 pandemic, Alycia feels hopeful - and she credits that shift in mindset with her NeuroLeadership training from OptiMind. By discovering what it feels and looks like to live in fear, Alycia can now step back and make proactive moves, not reactive ones. She can look at her clients and say, “Your amygdala is activated and you are scared right now.” Not only that -- she can respond more patiently and empathetically with her kids when they are triggered. Tune in to this episode to hear Alycia’s inspiring journey from scared to self-confident, her “Get Over Yourself Plan” for stepping into the spotlight, and the incredible career moves she’s made since graduating from OptiMind (can you say NASA?!). Quotes: “I was starting to see things that I’d been doing in my life, and it was all starting to make sense.” (15:17-15:23) “Everyone deserves to know about how their beautiful brain works.” (20:22-20:27) Links: To learn more about Alycia-->https://leadhershipadventures.ac-page.com/truth-map To Learn more about The OptiMind Program--> www.OptiMindInstitute.com
What if you didn’t have to suppress any part of yourself to succeed? In this episode of Coffee with a Neuroscientist, host Shonte Jovan Taylor talks with her inspiration and mentor Marie Forleo, founder of B-School and New York Times bestselling author, about just that. Marie shares her story of starting her own business as a life coach in the early 2000s, before anyone even knew what a life coach was. She shares her process of learning how to listen to her intuition, leave high-paying jobs on Wall Street and at Conde Nast, and find the path that would allow her to achieve her true purpose. Almost everyone can relate to the experience of coming to a fork in the road, where you realize that your future hinges on one decision. In B-School, Marie teaches students that those forks in the road are moments when you can embrace your full potential, no matter who you are, or what you came from. In the words of Marie Forleo: “Everything is figure-outable.” All you need are the right tools, and the confidence in yourself and your intuitive power, to follow the road that speaks to you. From cleaning toilets to becoming a bestselling author, Marie’s inspiring story is proof that we can bring our whole selves to our work every day. We don’t have to settle. Tune in this week to find out what it takes to get there. Quotes: "When women are financially empowered, everyone wins." (28:01-28:04) "It is my belief that we need the full spectrum of diversity of talents, gifts, and human perspectives coming together to solve the world's challenges."

Your relationship with your brain rules every aspect of life. Yet, in today’s world, rife with emotional and pollutional toxicity, it’s way too easy to be ruled by your brain, rather than you being in charge. “Brain hygiene” plays a prominent role in everyday world-life interactions and perceptions. This includes work, relationships and even cultural perceptions such as politics and inter-racial justice. In this show you will learn: What part of your brain responds with fear. How to better control your “reactive” fearful brain. Who are the brain heroes. How toxins play a role in brain health. How hormones play a role in brain health. How the brain and inter-racial perceptions interact. And more. Shonte’ has a BA and Masters in Neuroscience, is in the middle of her PhD program, and took a break to start her OptiMind Neuroscience Coaching & Training Institute. Shonte’ holds yearly neuroscience symposiums and had asked Dr. Berkson to co-lecture at one, a few years past. They have been interactive and mutually respective colleagues ever since. In Shonte’s OptiMind Neuroscience Institute she instructs that if you learn how to “rule your brain” you can “rule your world”. To be a successful yet peaceful person, to contribute to world peace and evolution, it is critical to learn how to master your brain so it doesn’t enslave yourself and your actions, even unconsciously. Especially unconsciously. This show is about awakening and opening and utilizing your highest potential. You can reach out to find out more about Shonte’ here: OptiMindInstitute.com ShonteJTaylor.com
