What if you could rewire your brain without medication? In this eye-opening conversation with Dr. Candice Holmes, we explore the transformative power of neurofeedback therapy—a non-invasive approach to optimizing brain function that's been changing lives for over 60 years yet remains surprisingly unknown.

Dr. Holmes shares her compelling journey from chiropractor to brain transformation specialist, motivated by her daughter's ADHD diagnosis. When conventional approaches fell short, she discovered neurofeedback therapy, which not only dramatically improved her daughter's focus and academic performance but led to a complete shift in their family dynamic. The results were so profound that Dr. Holmes dedicated her career to making this therapy accessible to others.

We dive deep into how neurofeedback works—essentially training your brain to function optimally through positive reinforcement while you simply watch content on a screen. Dr. Holmes explains how this approach has helped patients with conditions ranging from autism and PTSD to early-stage dementia, sharing powerful stories of transformation. One particularly moving example involves a nonverbal autistic patient who reduced emotional dysregulation behaviors from 20 times daily to just once or twice monthly.

The conversation takes a fascinating turn when we discuss how neurofeedback can benefit everyone—from children with developmental challenges to high-performing executives wanting to maintain cognitive sharpness as they age. Dr. Holmes emphasizes the importance of early intervention, especially for those concerned about Alzheimer's or dementia risk, explaining how the therapy can help create new neural pathways even as we age.

What would it mean to enter your golden years with financial confidence instead of anxiety? In this eye-opening conversation, Alexandra "The Care Girl" sits down with Jack Browne of Successful Retirement to tackle the harsh realities of aging without proper financial planning.

Drawing from his extensive background at Deloitte and fifteen years running accounting departments for public companies, Browne breaks down retirement planning into digestible concepts anyone can understand. He frames money management around three core characteristics – safety from decline, accessibility, and growth potential – explaining why you can only have two simultaneously and the tradeoffs each combination requires.

Browne introduces a compelling framework for understanding retirement phases: the active "Go-Go years," the slowing "Slow-Go years," and the limited-mobility "Won't-Go years." This progression highlights why flexible financial planning matters as spending patterns and needs evolve. The discussion takes a particularly powerful turn when examining annuities, income strategies, and the critical timing of insurance purchases. As Brown puts it, trying to secure long-term care insurance past age 70 is like "paying for the care itself" through premiums – a stark reminder that timing matters tremendously.

Perhaps most valuable is the guidance for families navigating intergenerational financial planning. Browne emphasizes the necessity of transparent conversations about parents' finances before cognitive decline sets in. The Care Girl shares her frontline experience with families facing devastating care costs ($6,000+ monthly) without resources, creating what she calls "the middle of a family feud" when unprepared families face difficult choices.

Whether you're planning your own retirement, helping aging parents, or concerned about future caregiving responsibilities, this conversation provides the framework and vocabulary to take meaningful action today. Your future self will thank you for listening.

Ever feel like you're constantly choosing between your career goals and your wellbeing? In this refreshing conversation with Dr. Parmida (known to everyone as Dr. P), we break down those false dichotomies and explore what true balance looks like.

Dr. P embodies an increasingly rare combination in today's world—she's both a successful chiropractor and professional model who prioritizes fitness while maintaining a thriving career. What struck me immediately upon meeting her wasn't just her accomplishments, but her genuine warmth. In an industry often plagued by competition, Dr. P stands out as someone who freely uplifts other women.

We dive deep into the excuses we tell ourselves about self-care ("I don't have time" being the most common) and how those 20-30 minutes many of us spend scrolling social media could transform our health if redirected to movement. Dr. P shares her personal journey of being discovered by Jessica McClintock in 2007, pausing modeling to pursue her education, and then successfully integrating both careers. For mothers listening, you'll appreciate our candid discussion about how children observe our habits—when they see us prioritizing our wellbeing, they learn to value their own.

My favorite moment? When Dr. P reveals her three life philosophies: "Movement is medicine," "Don't listen to what others think of you," and "Lead with purpose." These simple yet profound principles have guided her through building multiple careers while maintaining balance. Whether you're struggling with burnout, trying to restart your fitness journey, or simply seeking inspiration from women who've created success on their own terms, this conversation offers practical wisdom you can immediately apply.

Follow Dr. Parmita on Instagram @doctorparmida__t and let us know which of her philosophies resonated with you most! Have you found creative ways to prioritize movement in your busy schedule? We'd love to hear about them in the reviews.
