Are you stuck in a mental loop that keeps holding you back?

In this Mashup episode, I brought together some of the most brilliant minds in neuroscience and psychology to give you the practical tools and strategies to finally take back control of your thoughts—and your life. You’ll hear from Dr. Caroline Leaf, Dr. Amishi Jha, Dr. Daniel Amen, and Dr. Andrew Huberman as we unpack the science of rewiring your brain, building awareness, and developing the mental strength to break free from anxiety, stress, and distraction.

I walk through the exact five-step process of Dr. Leaf’s Neurocycle—a mental workout that rewires your thinking in just 63 days. I’ve been using parts of this myself and it’s a game-changer. And this isn’t just for trauma healing. Whether you’re battling depression or trying to reach a new level in your life, these five steps—gathering awareness, reflecting, writing, rechecking, and taking action—can help you create lasting change. We even break down how to use this cycle to achieve your goals by creating the right emotional triggers and visual cues.

Dr. Huberman and Dr. Amen dive into how your brain actually works—when it develops, how dopamine drives performance, and why your habits and physical activity shape your mental clarity. We talk about why movement isn’t just good for your body—it’s crucial for mental health. Dr. Jha then takes us into the power of attention training, helping us understand why mindfulness isn’t about controlling your thoughts, but becoming aware of where your attention really is. That’s where your power lives.

We also take on parenting, screen time, trauma, and even sleep—and how all of it ties back to mind management. And I get personal, sharing the visualization technique I teach my athletes—starting with real, emotional memories to make future goals feel real in your brain.

Key Takeaways:

- The 5-step Neurocycle to break negative thought patterns

- How to train your brain for attention and focus in just 12 minutes a day

- The connection between movement and mental clarity

- The science of dopamine and why the pursuit matters more than the achievement

- A practical prayer-based approach to help your children sleep and open up emotionally

- Why your brain doesn’t finish developing until 25—and what that means for parents

- How social media impacts emotional regulation and what to do about it

There’s no perfect mind, but there is a better way to manage it. This episode is packed with tools you can use right now to shift how you think, feel, and show up. Whether you're healing from pain or hungry to create something new, you’ll walk away equipped to change your brain and your life.
