The Made to Thrive Show

A few weeks ago, I was on Nicci’s podcast talking about health, life, nutrition and biohacking. It was a broad but beneficial conversation for anybody who is taking their first steps towards taking responsibility for their health.Nicci Robertson is a clinical nutritionist and the owner at Re-Invent Health and Integrative Health Sciences. She believes everyone is unique and has different gene expression, health issues, stress levels, activity levels, life circumstances, and goals. That’s why people find dietary advice to be confusing and contradictory. And while there’s no such thing as one optimal human diet, Nicci believes in  basic rules and systems to follow in order to thrive. Join us as we explore:What it means to thrive and not just survive?Why I believe I am seeing so much chronic fatigue, apathy and a lack of inspiration, and why my mission is to change TGIF to TGIM.The collaborative practice model, the critical role of health coaches and why the collaborative model is the future.Why if your doctor does not ask about your sleep, stress, nutrition and exercise, please, find another doctor.How to see through the myths perpetuated by Big Pharma, Big Food, Big Agriculture and any Big Business.The dangers of toxic living.

Wow! This episode is truly mind-blowing. Dr Porter’s genius and knowledge about the brain and brain health is unparalleled. Patrick K. Porter, PhD is the creator of BrainTap®, a global leading company in brain fitness. Prior to founding BrainTap, Patrick dedicated his life to studying neuropsychology, and eventually arrived to the conclusion that once established “facts” like there is a set number of brain cells, that intelligence quotient is fixed and that our brains do not change are in fact not true. Patrick’s clinical experience and research rather revealed that the human brain is, in fact, plastic, making it capable of change, improvement, and expansion. He and BrainTap has since worked with heads of state to athletic superstars, educators, executives, founders, and everyday people wanting to be at their best.Join us as we explore:Stories of BrainTap success from stopping babies crying, to MMA fighters envisioning success and Olympic athletes reaching new heights.
