In today's episode, Jeremy is speaking specifically to all of the parents out there. More and more kids are struggling with ADHD, Diabetes, and overall hyperactivity and imbalance.A majority of these issues are a product of poor lifestyle decisions. And most of these decisions are being made by parents. So rather than always telling your kids what to do, why not try EMBODYING what you want them to do?Want them to be more polite?Then always make sure to use good manners YOURSELF.Want them to be more grateful?Start practicing gratitude YOURSELF.Want them to eat healthier?Stop buying and eating toxic food YOURSELF.I know that being a parent is a full-time job, but my hope is that today's show offered you a fresh perspective on your role as a parent.As always, if you got value from today's conversation, please let us know by subscribing and sharing the show.

He is aPsychologist and author of the book Sex at Dawn. Plus, he has a Ted Talk about thehistory of promiscuity in our society.- Our closest cousins are chimps and bonobos – they are nowhere close to being sexuallyexclusive.- History shows that humans were not sexually exclusive.- As long as there is honesty in a relationship, we can have more than one soul bond.- Listen to the TED Talk:https://www.ted.com/talks/christopher_ryan_are_we_designed_to_be_sexual_omnivores[35:50] How Plant Medicines Help Raise Your Self-Awareness And Consciousness- Plants have helped anchor in Brandon’s perspective - that's one of the foundationalthings that most people experience at some level.- When using plant medicines, it’s essential to embrace your feelings.

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Cynthia Thurlow. Cynthia is a globally recognized expert in nutrition and intermittent fasting, highly sought-after speaker, and the CEO and founder of Everyday Wellness Project. She's been a nurse practitioner for 20+ years, and is a two-time TEDx speaker. Her viral TEDx Talk: Intermittent Fasting: Transformative Technique has been viewed nearly 5.5 million times in less than 9 months. She has been featured on ABC, FOX5, KTLA, CW and in Medium and Entrepreneur. She's also the host of Everyday Wellness podcast, which was listed as "20 Podcasts That Will Help You Grow in 2020"  by Entrepreneur magazine.In this episode, Cynthia dives deep into her viral TEDx Talk. She speaks about what it was like to prep for her speeches and how her hospital experience fueled her drive even more. Then, we talk about why Cynthia ended up leaving clinical medicine; she had been feeling very disillusioned with the practice for a long time. Fortunately, Cynthia landed on her feet, and she loves being an entrepreneur and teaching people about nutrition and intermittent fasting. Tune in as we chat about sex, healthy foods, and the life lessons we should teach our children.[04:00] What It's Like To Actually Give An Unforgettable TEDx TalkFor Cynthia’s first TEDx Talk, her most significant concern was if she could pull off memorizing 15 to 20 minutes of a speech. During the event, her goal was to be the best speaker.After the first experience, Cynthia felt completely confident that she could pull off another TEDx Talk. A month before the second TEDx Talk, Cynthia was sent off for an emergency CAT scan which revealed that her appendix had ruptured. Unfortunately, the entire length of her colon was inflamed, which explained why she was in so much pain.Next, the surgeon came in, and the first thing she said was, “if I take you to surgery tonight, you'll lose your colon.” Cynthia was in a panic – she didn’t want to lose her colon. However, Cynthia wasn’t getting any better. She had lost fifteen pounds in five days.When they did the second CAT scan, they realized that she developed abscesses in her abdomen.27 days after Cynthia left the hospital, she did the talk on intermittent fasting. Ten days later, Cynthia had her appendix out. [12:25] Writing A Speech And Committing It To Memory For TEDxCynthia knew that she needed a solid two weeks to write a speech and commit to memory. She only had twelve minutes – it was a challenge because when you get up in front of a live audience, your cadence generally slows down. Once you find your stride, you relax, and you might draw things out a little longer.So, midway through her talk, Cynthia realized that she didn't have enough time to get through the whole speech. Right after the TEDx Talk, Cynthia told her coach it was the worst one that she has ever done. [15:15] Becoming A Popular TEDx Talk After Almost DyingCynthia knows that mindset is everything. So, Cynthia wanted to get up there and give her talk no matter what. After, she knew she was going to be so proud of herself.Retrospectively, she has no idea how it all came together. When she watches it now, she thinks about how painful it was.Luckily, Cynthia is now in a completely different place on every level.[24:05] Ditching Doctor Days For The Untamed World Of EntrepreneurshipOn April 1, 2016, Cynthia left clinical medicine. She had been feeling very disillusioned with clinical medicine for a long time.Eventually, Cynthia realized what truly lit her up. What Cynthia enjoys doing is food and nutrition work. Plus, she loves to talk about the influence of food and nutrition on our well-being and our health.Cynthia spent the rest of 2016 navigating the journey from being a clinician to being an entrepreneur. She built a group program and was profitable fairly quickly.Plus, Cynthia started podcasting – it is an amazing opportunity to connect with people![32:10] Potential Pitfalls When Treating Symptoms Rather Than The Root CauseChronic disease management is terribly unfulfilling.Doctors forget to talk to patients about the quality of the foods they eat. Plus, many doctors tell patients that saturated fat is bad and they should be drinking these plant-based garbage seed oils.Sadly, there isn’t enough time for doctors to talk with patients about nutrition.Cynthia’s patients opened her up to the possibility that maybe there were other alternatives or other ways of thinking about things rather than these medications. Many medications have sexual side effects – what 35-year-old would want erectile dysfunction? Unfortunately, our society is increasingly metabolically unstable and obese. Men can actually aromatize testosterone to estrogen.[43:50 Taking The Power Of Your Sex Life As You Get OlderYou have to schedule a time for intimacy. Also, intimacy can represent many different things.Intimacy doesn't have to mean penetrating sex, it could be like someone's giving you a massage, or you're just cuddling with one another.You have to schedule time together.Cynthia recommends looking into Susan Bratton, a trusted sex advisor: https://susanbratton.com/.Plus, you should continue to date your spouse.Lastly, don’t be afraid to explore using new devices.[56:15] Overwhelmed In 2021? Find Balance!You have to have a partner who is supportive of your needs.For Cynthia, there's a lot of role modeling that goes on. Her kids see that she is committed to being physically active.When you're trying to find balance, then you need to acknowledge the things you don't do well and pay someone else to do them. [61:50] Foods That Promote A Healthy Heart  PeppersTomatoesEggplantsSalmonMackerelTunaSardinesButterAvocadosOlive oil[65:50] Top Foods For A Developing Child  SalmonTunaAvocado WalnutsMacadamia nuts Olive oilOlivesCoconut butterCoconut milk[76:20] What Cynthia Hopes Her Children Learn In SchoolCynthia hopes her children learn to think outside the box and to not be afraid to do or live differently than the way their peers do.She hopes that her boys feel confident enough in themselves that they will follow their own path without necessarily doing everything that their peers are doing.Overall, we're the only ones that are responsible for our happiness.AND MUCH MORE!Resources from this episode: As always, if you got value from today's conversation, please let us know by subscribing and sharing the show.

Today, I am blessed to have Dr. Amen join the show. Dr. Amen has helped millions of people change their brains and lives through his health clinics, best-selling books, products, and public television programs.Dr. Amen is one of America’s leading psychiatrists and brain health experts. He has authored or coauthored 70 professional articles and more than 30 books, including New York Times mega-bestseller Change Your Brain, Change Your Life. He has appeared on numerous television shows, including Dr. Phil, Larry King, Dr. Oz, The Doctors, and The View.In this episode, Dr. Amen opens the show speaking about his work with SPECT brain imaging. He explains what sorts of things can affect our brain negatively, especially when it comes to smoking marijuana. On Dr. Amen’s journey, he’s gotten a lot of negativity directed at him from his peers. Luckily, he has learned to push through the negativity using his 18/40/60 principle. Tune in as we talk about how being a celebrity can affect the brain, and we discover what dragons are making you sad, mad, nervous, or out of control. Don’t forget to get Dr. Amen’s latest book, Your Brain Is Always Listening. [06:40] About Dr. Amen’s Work With SPECT Imaging  In the 1990s, Dr. Amen started using a study called  SPECT (Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography). SPECT is a nuclear medicine study that looks at blood flow and activity to identify underlying brain issues that can contribute to symptoms accurately.It basically shows us three things:Good activityToo little activityToo much activitySPECT completely revolutionized how Dr. Amen treated his patients and how he treated himself. Dr. Amen came to realize that mental health was actually brain health – this realization changed everything! After working on people with substance abuse issues, Dr. Amen noticed that their scans just look terrible. So, Dr. Amen wanted to know what different drugs did to the brain. He took a healthy group and compared them to a marijuana group. In the marijuana group - every area of their brains was lower, particularly the hippocampus, which is the brain's major memory structure. What are the factors that accelerate aging in the brain? First, schizophrenia. Second, marijuana! If you smoke pot as a teenager, you have a higher incidence of anxiety, depression, and suicide in your 20s.[16:55] Pushing Through Negativity On Your Journey Dr. Amen has been able to push forward through all of the negativity in life. Sadly, so many people in his space talk down on him.It was quite the wild ride until he stopped paying attention to it.Early on, Dr. Amen realized there's not one kind of depression; there are seven kinds of depression. Based on imaging, there are seven types of ADD. Plus, there are six different types of addicts. These ideas are pushing against the status quo. Plus, some of the medications Dr. Amen was taught to prescribe were toxic for brain function! Sadly, people think Dr. Amen is crazy because he says you should not make diagnoses based on symptom clusters with no biological data. Dr. Amen says he doesn’t care if you like him or not anymore. Basically, if you’re a doctor and don't look at your patients' brains, then shame on you!“When I stopped paying attention to what people said about me, I just got so much happier.” -Dr. Amen[24:00] About The 18/40/60 Principle  When you're 18, you worry about what everybody is thinking of you; when you're 40, you don't give a darn what anybody thinks of you; when you're 60, you realize nobody’s  been thinking about you at all.People spend their days worrying and thinking about themselves, not you.If someone criticizes you, they're only thinking about it for a short period of time.Also, if someone is criticizing you, then they actually don't know you at all. [26:00] Brain Challenges For Celebrities  Celebrities suffer from high stress, especially when becoming famous at a young age like, Justin Bieber or Miley Cyrus. Their pleasure centers get worn out. Your pleasure centers deepen the brain to an area in the basal ganglia called the nucleus accumbens; it responds to dopamine.When you're a worldwide star, you are getting a lot of dopamine production from people recognizing you and you signing big contracts. With child stars, this is before their brains are actually finished developing.The more dopamine that hits those pleasure centers, the more it deadens them.[29:00] The Importance of Delayed Gratification  Walter Mitchell is a professor at Stanford. He did this experiment with four-year-olds. Basically, the kids could agree to get a marshmallow now. However, if they can wait a little bit, then they would get two marshmallows. The kids that opted to wait to get more marshmallows were significantly more successful in virtually every area of their lives because they had impulse control. [33:40] The Detriments On The Frontal LobePorn is wearing out your pleasure centers – it will deaden those centers. You have to be very thoughtful when it comes to the brain. The real weapons of mass destruction are highly processed pesticide spray, high-glycemic, low-fiber food substances. Sadly, 72% of us overweight, and 42% of us obese. It's the biggest brain drain in the history of the United States.[36:15] About Dr. Amen’s Daily Routines   As soon as Dr. Amen’s feet hit the floor in the morning, he says to himself, “today is going to be a great day.” He starts the day by lifting weights. Then, he puts amazing foods into his body. Dr. Amen only loves foods that love him back. [42:00] Relationship AdviceYou only want to be in a relationship where the person loves you back.If a relationship isn’t working, you have to be honest.Are you unhappy? Then, it’s time to be honest with your partner and with yourself. In a relationship, you need to know what you want. Then, ask yourself: does your behavior get you what you want? Basically, make sure that your actions align with your aspirations.[47:40] About Dr. Amen’s Relationship With His Father  Dr. Amen had a complex relationship with his dad. His dad’s favorite word was no. His second favorite word was bullshit. As a child, Dr. Amen was angry at his dad. Eventually, Dr. Amen healed the relationship with his father. It was a complicated relationship, and when he died, Dr. Amen was really sad.[54:15] Know Your Dragons Everyone has a dragon. The most common one is the anxious dragon. The second most common one, which was a surprise, is the responsible dragon. That's where you feel like you have to take care of other people. You can actually breed codependency if you're not careful with that dragon. Also, the wounded dragon is really common.AND MUCH MORE!Resources from this episode: As always, if you got value from today's conversation, please let us know by subscribing and sharing the show.
