In this episode of the Creator Method Podcast, Gary sits down with Jessica Weiss, renowned happiness expert, executive coach, TEDx speaker, and author of Happiness Works. With over 15 years of experience coaching leaders at organizations such as American Express, Johnson & Johnson, and Coca-Cola, Jessica brings neuroscience, positive psychology, and real-world performance insights into the creator economy. Together, they break down why creators feel burned out, overwhelmed, and inconsistent even when things appear to be working. Jessica explains the brain science behind negativity bias, perfectionism, imposter syndrome, and the fear of being seen, revealing why our brains are wired for survival, not happiness, and how that wiring quietly sabotages creativity and confidence. They also explore the emotional cost of constant output, why creators slip into autopilot mode, and how ignoring replenishment shows up in performance, engagement, and data. Jessica shares practical tools for managing pressure, building sustainable creative rhythms, and separating self-worth from metrics so creators can grow without burning out. This conversation is a masterclass in sustainable creativity, mindset, and long-term success. If you are a creator, entrepreneur, or high performer who feels stuck, exhausted, or trapped in a cycle of pressure and self-doubt, this episode will change how you think about your brain, your habits, and your creative potential.

Predicting the weather is really hard, not least because of all those butterflies in the Amazon flapping their wings about. So an even-vaguely-right forecast is a scientific marvel and a masterclass in risk communication. And how people do and don't take it in is a similarly fascinating dive into human brains and how they deal (or don't) with uncertainty.  But these days you can't talk about our changing weather without talking about our changing climate - even if (too) many people still don't see the link. And what happens when innocent weather forecasters wade by mistake into the culture war? In this episode of Your Brain on Climate, I'm joined by the brilliant socio-meteorologist (it's a thing), Helen Roberts, from the UK Met Office - the Weather People. Helen explains all about how the modern miracle of meteorology is done - and everything she's learned about how to bring climate reality into the weather forecast, even if some don't want to hear it.  Let me know your thoughts on the show - hello@yourbrainonclimate.com. Please rate, review and subscribe, and share the show on socials. Please consider chucking this humble indie podcaster a few quid at www.patreon.com/yourbrainonclimate. Owl noises = references: 17:35: Lewis Fry Richardson, the 'father of weather forecaster'. 20:41: that video of the wandering dog explaining climate vs weather. 36:06: Helen thought it was 65% of people see the link between weather and climate - the link I found said 76%. Right ballpark. 41:13: Availability Bias: I'm sure we've talked about it before but I don't (ha ha) have to hand. So here's Decision Lab on it. 43.18: Climate Outreach's Climate Visuals resource.  45.08: I'm talking about my episode all about heat and violence - one of my faves. The show is hosted and produced by me, Dave Powell. You can follow the show on instagram @yourbrainonclimate, and I occasionally put up a Substack. YBOC theme music and iterations thereof, by me.  Show logo by Arthur Stovell at https://mondial-studio.com/.

In this episode, I sit down with Scott Benbow, a Football Fun Factory franchise owner in West Cumbria who's on a mission to transform grassroots coaching through learning science. After an 11-year break from coaching and a deep dive into neuroscience and learning development, Scott returned to football with a radically different approach—one that prioritises how children learn over traditional coaching methods. We explore his journey from burnout to breakthrough, discussing how Lauren Waldman's 'Joining Forces with Your Brain' course completely changed his understanding of what coaches should actually be doing. Scott challenges the isolated drill model, shares practical techniques like his 30-second focus activation method, and makes a compelling case that children don't need us to learn—they need us to enhance learning that's already happening naturally.3 Key Takeaways:Focus is the gateway to learning - Scott explains how he uses simple techniques (like writing children's names with a luminous football) to activate focused attention for 30-60 seconds before any instruction, dramatically improving engagement and learning outcomes.Children don't need coaches to learn, but coaches can enhance or hinder the process - By understanding neural network development and how the brain naturally learns through environmental interaction, coaches can step back from prescriptive teaching and design richer learning environments instead.The grassroots coaching crisis is a systems problem, not a coach problem - Volunteer coaches are giving their time but receiving minimal support and outdated training. Better understanding of learning science could revolutionise how we support both coaches and the children they serve.This is a good faith discussion between practitioners with complementary philosophies about the sport experience for children but some different perspectives on the underpinning learning mechanisms that drive practice design. Join the conversation and connect with like-minded practitioners by becoming part of The Guild of Ecological Explorers.

The REAL Cause of Low Desire & ED (It's Not Just "Low T") | Prime Podcast Ep. 348 This is the "hard conversation" about men's sexual health that most people are afraid to have. In this powerful episode of the Prime Podcast, Dr. Skip and Dr. Julie Wies argue that the mainstream focus on "Low T" and "Erectile Dysfunction (ED)" medication is just a band-aid for a much deeper, more alarming epidemic: a crisis of low arousal and desire. This problem is no longer just for older men; it's affecting men in their 20s and 30s, directly linked to plummeting men's infertility rates and ruining relationships. Dr. Skip pinpoints overstimulation and desensitization from pornography as the primary cause, creating a "disease in the mind" that real-world intimacy can't compete with. Learn the steps to break this cycle, re-sensitize your brain, and reclaim genuine intimacy. Key Takeaways / In This Episode: * (04:06) Why "Low T" pills and ED medication don't fix the core problem of low arousal. * (04:46) The #1 cause of psychological desensitization in men. * (07:18) How overstimulation (starting with video games and social media) creates unrealistic expectations and destroys intimacy. * (09:57) The downward spiral of desensitization and its devastating impact on marriage. * (12:38) The simple, direct solution: How to "quit" artificial stimulation and re-sensitize your brain to your partner. * (22:05) The surprising link between long-term stimulant (ADHD) medication and men's infertility. * (24:00) It's okay to talk about this: How to have the "hard conversation" and get help.

The Apostle Paul tells us in 2 Corinthians 9:7 that "God loves a cheerful giver." And we've seen that throughout this series—giving changes lives, both for those who receive and for those who give. But here's something interesting: science agrees. Research shows that helping others doesn't just strengthen communities—it also transforms our health. Acts of kindness can boost our resilience, lower stress, and even help us live longer. Today, I'm joined by health and science journalist Nicole Karlis, author of "Your Brain on Altruism." In her book, she explores how generosity lights up our brains, improves our well-being, and nurtures a culture of caring. We'll talk about why crises often bring out extraordinary generosity, what the latest science says about altruism, and how we can sustain caring for one another even after the crisis passes.

The devil often tempts us to believe God doesn't care about our suffering. Is God loving? Is He trustworthy?In this episode, we're looking at the significance of the incarnation of Jesus Christ. How does Jesus' life, death, resurrection, and ascension relate to spiritual warfare and the authority believers have in Christ? Through Jesus' incarnation, we see God give a profound answer to the question of suffering, illustrating how Jesus fully entered into human pain, rejection, and death. We see Him confusing and defeating demons, speaking truth, calling us to repentance, and ultimately ushering in a new era of resurrected hope and life. As we consider His victory in action, we encourage you to reflect on how the incarnation deepens our understanding of God's love.Thank you for joining us - father-daughter duo Marcus Warner and Stephanie Warner - on the trail to a deeper walk with God!

In this episode, we're continuing our biblical foundations of spiritual warfare series with a look at the kingdom of darkness from both the Old and New Testament perspectives. What are the origins of this dark kingdom? We specifically cover the "John Milton" understanding and the "Michael Heiser" understanding of these origins.What does Christ's authority look like over it all? We also discuss the significance of idolatry, the nature of evil, and the role of evangelism as a form of spiritual warfare. The good news is that Jesus Christ is victorious over the darkness, and believers do not need to be afraid to engage in spiritual warfare with confidence. Thank you for joining us - father-daughter duo Marcus Warner and Stephanie Warner - on the trail to a deeper walk with God!

In this episode of The Mentors Radio, Host Tom Loarie talks with Daniel Levintin, PhD, a neuroscientist, cognitive psychologist, musician and best-selling author whose newest book, I Heard There Was a Secret Chord: Music as Medicine, explores how music changes the brain, strengthens memory and restores joy. Dr. Levitin's research explains why that happens. He's a Founding Dean of Arts and Humanities at Minerva University in San Francisco, James McGill Professor Emeritus of Psychology and Neuroscience at McGill University in Montreal, and the author of ten acclaimed books, including This Is Your Brain on Music and The Organized Mind. Before turning to science, he spent years as a studio musician and producer, working with artists like Sting, Joni Mitchell, and Steely Dan—so he understands music from the inside out. Today, we'll explore why music is remembered when everything else fades, how it reduces pain and loneliness, and how we can use it as a form of service — to comfort others, strengthen connection, and even rediscover ourselves.

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 10-23-2025: Dr. Dawn opens with a passionate plea about E-bike safety after observing riders ignoring stop signs and wearing inadequate helmets in Santa Cruz. She explains the physics of collisions, noting that force equals mass times acceleration, and a car hitting an E-bike rider at 20 mph delivers impact equivalent to falling from a two-story building. She emphasizes that 97% of bike fatalities in New York involved helmetless riders, and brain injuries result from the brain striking the skull twice during impact - once on the impact side and again on the opposite side during deceleration. She urges drivers to honk at helmetless riders and calls for stricter helmet law enforcement. An emailer asks about hydroxyapatite in toothpaste. Dr. Dawn traces its origins to NASA research in the 1960s by Dr. Bernard Rubin studying crystal growth for preventing bone and tooth mineral loss in astronauts. Japanese company Sangi acquired the patent and created the first hydroxyapatite toothpaste by 1980, receiving official anti-cavity recognition in 1993. Studies show it matches fluoride's cavity prevention effectiveness by filling microscopic cracks where bacteria take root. It also relieves temperature sensitivity by sealing micro-fractures in enamel that expose the dentin layer, making it especially helpful for people who clench their jaws. Researchers from UC Berkeley and the Allen Institute used electrodes and lasers to study how mouse brains process optical illusions like the Kanizsa triangle. They discovered specialized IC encoder neurons in the visual cortex that fill in missing information, creating complete shapes from partial cues. When these pattern-completing circuits activate inappropriately, they may trigger hallucinations in conditions like schizophrenia. Dr. Dawn explains that illusions occur when the brain perceives something different from actual visual input, while hallucinations create perceptions with no external stimulus. She discusses frontotemporal dementia where visual hallucinations result from protein deposits in the occipital cortex, and notes that a 2021 British Journal of Psychiatry study found hallucination rates varying from 7% in young people to 3% in those over 70. An emailer describes unbearable chronic lumbar pain with degenerative disc disease shown on MRI. Dr. Dawn emphasizes that MRI findings don't necessarily correlate with pain levels, citing shopping mall studies showing equal degenerative changes in people with and without back pain. She stresses checking for sciatica symptoms including leg pain below the knee, sensory differences between sides, calf size asymmetry, and ability to walk on tiptoes and heels. Without these red flags, the degenerative disease likely isn't causing the pain. She warns against unnecessary surgery citing frequent "failed back" syndrome when surgery for a disk image doesn't "fix" the pain. She recommends water jogging with a ski vest, McKenzie exercises, abdominal strengthening, ergonomics, removing wallets from back pockets, and alternating heat and ice therapy. She discusses mindfulness meditation and cognitive behavioral therapy for pain management. A caller references Daniel Levitin's book "Your Brain on Music," discussing research using functional MRIs showing distinct brain activation patterns in musicians versus non-musicians due to integrated auditory, visual, and kinesthetic training. Dr. Dawn describes how infant brains develop from three to six layers with increasingly complex synaptic connections resembling circuit boards. She highlights a blindfold study where college students' visual cortices began responding to sound within two weeks as the auditory cortex expanded. She shares her husband's remarkable recovery demonstrating adult brain plasticity through intensive rehabilitation. Learning new musical instruments helps dementia patients by activating multiple brain regions simultaneously and improving standard cognitive test performance. A caller describes an eight-day chest cold with thick white phlegm. Dr. Dawn recommends guaifenesin as a mucus-thinning expectorant to prevent bacterial growth in respiratory secretions that serve as "bacteria chow." She emphasizes the importance of current flu, COVID, and RSV vaccinations. Secondary bacterial infections develop when bacteria colonize viral-induced mucus in the lungs and invade tissues. She advises aggressive hydration and chicken soup, which research shows helps clear mucus. Another caller provides additional information about Daniel Levitin as a musicologist, neurologist, and musician who runs the Music Perception, Cognition and Expertise laboratory at McGill University.

Can art transform our brains for the better? Local arts and health champion, Path with Art, in partnership with Seattle University and Town Hall Seattle, leads a conversation with Susan Magsamen, New York Times bestselling co-author of Your Brain on Art, and director of Johns Hopkins International Arts + Mind Lab, as well as the co-director of the Aspen Institute's Neuroarts Blueprint. Susan shares the latest research demonstrating how individual and public health can be transformed through the arts. When introduced in healing settings, arts engagement is associated with a reduction in the need for pain medication, reduced cortisol levels, decreased length of hospital stays, decreased incidence of depression, increased memory and cognitive function, and improved communication and behavioral skills. This event explores how the emerging science of neuroarts is expanding the horizons of mental wellness and public health, with some of the most exciting developments taking place here in Seattle and across the world. Presented by Town Hall Seattle, Path with Art, and Seattle University.

So many of us quietly believe that permanent healing isn't possible — that we'll always feel “a little bit broken,” or that we'll have to keep managing the same patterns forever.But that's not true.Healing isn't meant to be a series of Band-Aids — a few therapy sessions here, a meditation retreat there, a burst of self-care when things get hard. Those things can help… but only for a while.Real, lasting healing begins when you stop patching symptoms and start addressing what's underneath — the parts of you that are protecting the wound, the nervous system patterns that keep looping, and the way those inner imbalances show up in your relationships.In this week's episode of Your Brain on Trauma, I'm sharing my No More Band-Aids model — a framework I use with my clients to help them access deep, permanent healing.You'll learn:Why temporary fixes can actually keep you stuckThe three ingredients that create real, lasting change: mind, body, and loveHow Internal Family Systems, polyvagal theory, and somatic work come together to rewire old trauma loopsWhy healing your inner world is the key to safe, authentic relationshipsTimestamps:02:16 “No More Band-Aids”: why quick fixes don't work06:29 The three ingredients of permanent healing (Mind–Body–Love)07:55 IFS explained: protectors, exiles & Self13:27 Nervous system work: polyvagal & somatic basics16:23 Relationships as a mirror; authentic communication20:46 Putting it together: the path to lasting changeIf you've been trying to “fix” yourself and wondering why it never lasts, this episode will show you what's been missing.Oh—and if you have something you're navigating and would love my take on it...

Todd Sattersten brings over 20 years of experience in nonfiction book publishing, and is the author of "The 100 Best Books for Work and Life." He's also the publisher at Bard Press and has dedicated his career to helping leaders navigate the overwhelming world of business literature. In this episode, Todd reveals how he curated 100 essential books into 25 problem-focused chapters, moving beyond traditional business categories to address both professional and personal challenges leaders face. He explains why growth comes from believing change is possible and how daily effort accumulates into meaningful progress.  Todd discusses the shift from data-heavy business books toward more introspective, permission-giving literature that acknowledges the chaotic nature of modern leadership. Todd discusses the difficulty of finding quality fiction with positive leadership examples and his preference for books that help readers ask different questions rather than provide step-by-step formulas. Todd concludes by stressing the importance of reading with intention, distinguishing between reading for entertainment versus insight, and building sustainable reading habits that focus on addressing real challenges rather than collecting impressive quotes. Listen to discover how to navigate information overload, identify truly transformative books, and develop the reading habits that separate effective leaders from those who simply accumulate knowledge. You can find episode 482 on YouTube, or wherever you get your podcasts! Watch this Episode on YouTube |   Key Takeaways [03:42] Todd explains his selection process started with 60-70 known books, then Todd describes how the 25 topics emerged naturally from the books themselves - goal setting, habits, leadership, relationships, motivation. [06:48] Todd identifies two key patterns to accumulate people's consistent actions: "growth comes from the belief that change is possible" and "daily effort matters." [13:28] Todd explains that great books redefine problems to create different solutions, citing examples like focusing on better customers rather than better products. [16:02] Todd reveals he's nervous about trendy books, especially about companies or leaders that don't hold up over time. [20:51] Todd believes people recognize tremendous value in listening to work others have already done, whether from Stoics, Buddhists, or other traditions. [23:50] Todd emphasizes reading requires choosing between entertainment versus insight, asking "how will I act differently after reading this." [27:03] Todd explains the data-heavy book trend came from 30 years of neuroscience research but now sees a shift toward permission-giving books. [31:50] Todd identifies "Your Brain at Work" by David Rock as his top pick for explaining brain function limitations. [35:40] Todd describes "Reboot" by Jerry Colonna as transformative for connecting personal stories to leadership effectiveness. [39:17] Todd concludes by encouraging leaders to "build a habit of reading" since most successful leaders are readers. [40:09] And remember…”The things I want to know are in books. My best friend is the man who will get me a book I ain't read.” - Abraham Lincoln.   Quotable Quotes “Growth comes from the belief that change is possible.” “Daily effort matters.” “A different way to define the problem creates a different way to solve the problem.” “If you don't understand the stories that you have about yourself, then you can't possibly be the best possible leader.” “Fiction can provide a really great perspective.” “The work is internal most of the time. It's not, hey, I need to go fix some business thing.” “Leadership is a journey of growth.” “A book still does something that almost every other art form doesn't do.” “The people who understand the value of books understand there's a tremendous value in listening to the work others have already done.” “Identifying a set of effective solutions… that's what leaders need.” “Please build a habit of reading. I can't think of a better habit for a leader.”   These are the books mentioned in this episode   Resources Mentioned The Leadership Podcast | Sponsored by | Rafti Advisors.

The number one reason women come to me for guidance during the perimenopause transition is brain-related.  So in this episode, we dive into why perimenopause directly impacts your mental and emotional health. Many women in midlife experience emotionally connected symptoms like rage, irritability, low stress tolerance, mood swings, depression, and anxiety.  That's because perimenopause isn't just a reproductive transition — it's a neuroendocrine one, meaning your brain and hormones are deeply intertwined.  As hormones fluctuate wildly, it's no wonder you may feel like you don't even recognize yourself anymore.  But you're not alone — millions of women are feeling the same!  Tune in here and learn what's really going on in your brain during this transition. IN THIS EPISODE How hormone changes in midlife affect our brain  The variability around perimenopause and how it impacts people at different ages, with a multitude of symptoms  How to level up during perimenopause and menopause  About my Perimenopause Solution Event  Raising awareness for ALL women about midlife health  QUOTES “Eight of the 10 most common symptoms during this [perimenopause] transition are going to be neurological.” “It can feel so scary to experience these symptoms without understanding why they're happening, and that's why we need to address why women aren't feeling like themselves in perimenopause. I've said it before, and I will say it again– perimenopause deserves our undivided attention. And this is why I wrote the Perimenopause Revolution.” “Depending on how we take care of our bodies during perimenopause, it can really determine how our bodies thrive. In menopause and beyond.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Claim your FREE pass to The Perimenopause Solution event HERE!  https://hayh.site/pr_bl_ap-snyder_a_snyder Order my new book: The Perimenopause Revolution https://peri-revolution.com/ RELATED EPISODES  686: Your Second Puberty Explained: What's Really Happening to Your Body in Perimenopause  668: Your Brain on Perimenopause: The Hidden Neurological Transition No One Warns You About 683: Aging in Reverse: How Women Over 40 Can Boost Energy, Lose Weight & Rewrite Their Story with Natalie Jill 678: How to Turn Perimenopause Into Your Metabolic Window of Opportunity + My Simple Daily Protocol To Feel Amazing

Has anyone ever asked you about your drinking? Have you ever tried to cut back on alcohol?  Drinking is a culturally accepted way to relax, unwind, celebrate or manage stress. And no one intentionally decides to have a drinking problem. It's usually a slow drift—one drink here, a few more there—and before you know it, alcohol might be playing a bigger role in your life than you intended. But how can you know if it's a problem? In this enlightening episode of our ongoing series, Dealing with Your Addictions, John and Austin talk about the very common issue of drinking alcohol and how to figure out if it's a problem in your life. You'll hear about: How drinking affects your brain and body A biblical view of alcohol Questions you can ask yourself about drinking Paying attention without feeling shame The goal of this episode isn't to heap guilt on anyone or to say you can't ever enjoy a glass of wine or a beer. Instead, it's about understanding what alcohol really does to your brain and body so you can be honest with yourself about your relationship with alcohol. This powerful conversation could be a game changer for you or someone you love!

In this groundbreaking episode of hol+, Dr. Taz MD sits down with award-winning researcher and author Dr. Sarah Hill (This Is Your Brain on Birth Control) to reveal the shocking, little-known science of how hormonal contraception shapes not just your reproductive system, but your entire mind and body.From altered stress responses to shifts in attraction, depression risk in teens, and the controversial “bikini science” problem in medical research, Dr. Hill pulls back the curtain on decades of overlooked studies that every woman and parent should know about. She shares her own journey from evolutionary psychologist to outspoken women's health advocate, explaining why synthetic progestins are not the same as progesterone, how birth control affects your immune system, and why teenagers may be especially vulnerable to its mental health effects.If you're a woman in your teens, 20s, 30s, or 40s—or a parent guiding your daughter—this episode could change the way you think about hormone health, fertility, and your body's natural rhythms.Dr. Hill and Dr. Taz discuss:How birth control changes the brain's structure and functionThe difference between progesterone and synthetic progestins (and why it matters)Why “bikini science” has failed women in medical researchThe surprising link between birth control and partner attractionThe immune system's hidden connection to hormonal cyclingTeen mental health risks: depression, anxiety, and brain developmentSafer contraceptive choices and how to support your body if you use the pillHow nutrition and micronized progesterone might help offset side effectsThis conversation is more than just information — it's a wake-up call for how we study, prescribe, and support women's health.Topics Covered:Hormonal birth control's impact on the brainSynthetic hormones vs. bioidentical hormonesPartner choice and relationship satisfaction researchAutoimmunity and immune system differences in womenMental health risks for adolescent usersNon-hormonal birth control optionsNutritional and hormonal support strategiesConnect further to Hol+ at https://holplus.co/- Don't forget to like, subscribe, and hit the notification bell to stay updated on future episodes of hol+.About Dr. Sarah E.

Historically, medical research has done a disservice to women. In fact, for many years, scientists only studied men, assuming that all effects would generalize to women. But we now know that’s not true. In today’s show, we’re talking about how we can improve the state of science on women's health, and how that begins with having a fuller understanding of the hormone shifts that occur during the menstrual cycle and how they affect women’s brains and bodies. I am joined once again by Dr. Sarah Hill, the author of This is Your Brain on Birth Control. She has spent most of her 20+ year career studying women, relationships, and health. Her latest book is titled The Period Brain: The New Science of Why We PMS and How To Fix It. Some of the specific topics we explore include: What’s the problem with one-size-fits-all medical advice? How does the concept of PMS pathologize natural things that happen to women's bodies? What’s the problem with using the male body as the “standard” in scientific research? What’s wrong with the way scientists typically treat the menstrual cycle in studies of women? How can we do research that actually serves women?

It is well-known that PMS symptoms can deeply affect how women are feeling, including their mood, pain, and energy levels. But why exactly does this happen? Today, we’re going to dive into the science of sex hormones and the menstrual cycle, including how hormone levels affect women’s sexual motivation and tips for navigating sex at different phases of the cycle. I am joined by Dr. Sarah Hill, the author of This is Your Brain on Birth Control. She has spent most of her 20+ year career studying women, relationships, and health. Her latest book is titled The Period Brain: The New Science of Why We PMS and How To Fix It. Some of the specific topics we explore include: What’s the deal with PMS? Why did women evolve to feel like crap for half of the menstrual cycle? How do the rise and fall of different hormones during the cycle affect women’s brains? Progesterone is a hormone that’s supposed to make us feel good. So why doesn’t it have that effect during the second half of the menstrual cycle? How do estrogen and progesterone affect sexual motivation and desire? You can check our Sarah’s website to learn more about her work. Got a sex question?
