    495. Exploring Ego and Enlightenment with Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor

    The concepts of death and rebirth aren’t ones that most people may be intimately familiar with, but this week’s guest on The Unbeatable Mind, Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor certainly is. A Harvard trained neuroscientist, Dr. Jill discusses her traumatic brain hemorrhage that silenced her left brain's functioning, catapulting her into a state of right-brain consciousness.  

     

    Exploring the intricate dance between the right and left brain hemispheres, ego, individuality and the collective human experience, Jill dives into the principles of what she calls “whole brain living”, sharing her unique perspective on balancing four distinct characters within us—-each rooted in different brain capacities. 

     

    Shedding light on the transformative potential of embracing one’s duality, managing ego, and achieving a state of contextual awareness, Dr. Jill highlights important topics that not only hold to power to heal individuals, but revolutionize society. 

     

    Key Takeaways:

    • Jill Bolte Taylor’s Stroke: Listen to Jill recount her experience with having a major hemorrhagic stroke at the age of 37 and her eight year recovery process. 

    • Right Vs. Left Brain Hemispheres: Learn about the difference between the present moment focus of the right brain versus the individual perception of the left. 

    • Whole Brain Living: Learn about how Jill categorizes the brain into “four character” groups—and how she negotiates time between characters for a balanced life. 

    • Ego and Consciousness: Discover the role of ego in establishing individuality, language, and time perception.

     

    Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor is a Harvard-trained and published neuroscientist. In 1996 she experienced a severe hemorrhage (AVM) in the left hemisphere of her brain causing her to lose the ability to walk, talk, read, write, or recall any of her life. Her memoir, My Stroke of Insight, documenting her experience with stroke and eight-year recovery, spent 63 weeks on the New York Times nonfiction bestseller list and is still routinely the #1 book in the category Stroke in the Amazon marketplace.

     

    Dr. Jill is a dynamic teacher and public speaker who loves educating all age groups, academic levels, as well as corporations and not-for-profit organizations about the beauty of our human brain. She focuses on how we can activate the power of our neuroplasticity to not only recover from neurological trauma, but how we can purposely choose to live a more flexible, resilient, and satisfying life.

    494. Emotional Clarity and Kundalini with Kurtis Lee: Insights on The Power of Breathwork

    Breathwork. Its transformative power can’t be understated, nor can its potential to be combined with countless facets of life. From creativity, sexuality, and even the corporate world, the benefits of breathwork are seemingly endless—-and perhaps no one knows this better than today’s guest, Kurtis Lee. 

     

    This week on The Unbeatable Mind, Kurtis Lee shares his incredible journey of healing and self-discovery through breathwork—a tool that not only alleviated his long-standing stomach pain, but allowed for profound spiritual and emotional growth. Exploring the shortcomings of traditional treatments like ayahuasca or fasting, Kurtis details how one intense breathwork session in Los Angeles marked a new beginning in his healing journey. 

     

    Through the intricate balance of physical health with these advanced meditative practices, the interconnection between body, brain, and mind, and the importance of foundational health, Kurtis paints a highly detailed picture of what it takes to become a seasoned breathwork practitioner. 

     

    Key Takeaways:

    • Kundalini Healing & Energetics: Hear about Kurtis’s prolonged, challenging Kundalini awakening, and learn about the dangers associated with one. 

    • Foundational Health Practices: Discover how laying the foundation for one's health is a must before diving into any advanced practices. 

    • Creativity, Sexuality, and Chakras: Listen to how sexual energy can be transmuted for increased creativity—-and learn of the Chakras and their associated blockages. 

    • Customized Practices and Integration: Learn how breathwork can be applied to a myriad of other areas in life—or even with popular and legally rising substances like psychedelics. 

     

    Kurtis Lee Thomas is the #1 international best-selling author of the book, THE WORLD IS YOURS, THE AWAKENING-The Secrets behind “The Secret”. He's a world-class keynote speaker and corporate mindfulness trainer who has spoken at the largest consciousness expos in the world, some of the top colleges, and fortune 500 companies.

     

    Kurtis is a mindfulness mentor who focuses on awakening the best in people. He’s dedicated his career to the powerful communion mind and body by improving mental health, eradicating stress, and lifting spirits in the workplace to improve creativity and productivity. He's been seen in photos with everyone from Oprah, Tony Robbins, Beyonce, Kayne West, Jessica Alba, Deepak Chopra, Sir Richard Branson, Snoop Dogg, and Steve Forbes, founder of Forbes Magazine.

    493. From External Validation to Internal Peace: Embracing Holistic Healing With Nicole LePera

    Traditional psychology is not without its limits, and on this week’s episode of The Unbeatable Mind, holistic psychologist Dr. Nicole LePera is here to discuss those limits and the importance of integrating mind, body, and spirit for true healing. 

     

    Nicole opens up about her own struggles with achievements and the emptiness that followed—-even at the peak of her professional success. She delves into the evolution of therapy, and how moving beyond traditional models can bring about more transformative and resilient ways of living. Tackling issues of codependency, often shaped by one's childhood environment(s), Nicole dissects how these patterns impact one’s adult life and relationships. Her perceptive way of dissecting past trauma can be transformative for anyone who finds themselves on the path towards healing. 

     

    Dr. Nicole found herself frustrated with her work as a therapist. She knew that she wanted better for herself and her clients. At the same time, she began to face some hard truths about her own family dynamics, core beliefs, and dysfunctional patterns that led to an emotional breakdown. This led to her own healing journey, and after 2 years of deep transformation she began teaching this work on social media, creating a community of #selfhealers. Dr. Nicole created the SelfHealers Circle to allow people to go on their own journey and create who they want to become. Dr. Nicole lives in Los Angeles, California and loves anywhere that involves the stillness (and quiet) of nature.

     

    Key Takeaways:

    • Holistic Approaches to Healing: Learn about the necessity of multidimensional approaches to healing and how essential it is to integrate emotional, physical and spiritual aspects. 

    • External Validation vs. Internal Fulfillment: Discover how even those who appear to be performing at their peak are often the ones seeking external validation—no achievement can take the place of genuine personal connection. 

    • The Limitations of Traditional Psychology: Recognize the limitations in modern day methods of therapy—they lack the integration of body and mind. 

    • Origins of Codependency: Learn how childhood environments and dysfunctional family dynamics play a role in forming codependent tendencies and what safety mechanisms, if applied early, can help prevent them.

    • Historical Context: Gain insight into how  breathwork practices have evolved from ancient traditions like yoga and qigong, and how modern science is catching up to this age-old wisdom.

    The Psychedelic Frontier: Insights on Meditation, Psilocybin, and Healing with Gabriel Charalambides

    Today on The Unbeatable Mind, dive into the fascinating intersection of psychedelics, meditation, and mental health with aerospace engineer and founder of guided psilocybin retreat company Odyssey, Gabriel Charlambides. Gabriel shares his own profound experiences with meditation and psychedelics, drawing incredibly perceptive parallels between the two and highlighting their profound effects on the brain's default mode network. 

    Explore Gabriel’s transition from aerospace engineer to founding a professional retreat business in Oregon that emphasizes safe, science-backed psychedelic experiences. Examine with us the complexities and concerns surrounding psychedelic use, and how their use can lead to increased kindness, compassion, and altruism. Gabriel discusses the legislative landscape for psychedelics, touching on groundbreaking measures in Oregon and beyond. 

    Tune in now for a truly compelling conversation about the transformative potential of psychedelics, and the immense promise they hold for the future of mental health treatments. 

    Key Topics Include:

    • Meditation vs. Psychedelics: Gabe shares fascinating research showing that expert meditators and individuals on psilocybin experience similar brain activity, shedding light on the profound connection between these two practices.

    • Mental Health Benefits: From increased kindness and compassion in Zen meditators on psilocybin to significant emotional breakthroughs, both Gabe and Mark highlight the transformative potential of psychedelics for mental well-being.

    • Early Awe and Meditation: Gabriel reveals an early experience where his awe of a plant invoked a deep meditative state, mirroring experiences of profound presence and the loss of self-reflection.

     

    Gabriel Charalambides, the founder of Odyssey and formerly an aerospace engineer, has a profound dedication to mental health. His enthusiasm for psychological well being ignited over a decade ago when he discovered Buddhism and began exploring the world of psychedelics.

    In 2019, Gabriel made a pivotal decision to depart from his aerospace career, diving deeper into his growing passion for mental health. This shift involved volunteering at Synthesis, participating in extensive silent meditation retreats, and working with organizations like MAPS and HealthRhythms. Gabe holds a Master's degree in Aeronautics & Astronautics and an MBA from Stanford University.

    The Soul’s Choice, Karmic Growth, and Human Nature: Sam Wilkins Talks Purpose

    Unlock the mystery of existence with Sam Wilkins in this episode of The Unbeatable Mind, where he explores the powerful intersection of free will, evolution, and personal growth. He dives into the profound belief in pre-birth choice and how our past experiences shape our decisions, blending insights on human nature’s duality of good and evil. Wilkins challenges the presumption that life is meaningless within the lens of science, emphasizing recurring evolutionary patterns hinting at a deeper purpose. 

     

    Discover how purpose isn’t just an abstract concept but something you can cultivate through thoughtful effort and relationships. Addressing our modern dependency on technology, Wilkins examines the mental health impacts of excessive phone use and societal polarization, offering wisdom grounded in personal anecdotes and empirical studies. Join the conversation on confronting challenges and finding meaning through altruism, as Sam reasons that our struggles are stepping stones tailored for individual growth.

     

    Tune in to uncover how strategic challenges, much like Navy SEAL training, can build resilience, and why focusing on meaningful connections over material gains leads to lasting happiness. Sam Wilkins' critical analysis of social media addiction compared to alcohol dependency emphasizes the importance of deliberate action and mindful living as keys to mental and emotional well-being.

     

    Samuel T. Wilkinson, M.D., is Associate Professor of Psychiatry at the Yale School of Medicine, where he also serves as Associate Director of the Yale Depression Research Program. Dr. Wilkinson received his B.S. in mechanical engineering, summa cum laude, from Brigham Young University and later his medical degree from Johns Hopkins School of Medicine. He completed his residency at Yale, where he joined the faculty following his post-graduate medical training.

    His primary research has focused on depression and suicide prevention and has been funded by the National Institute of Mental Health, the National Institute of Drug Abuse, the Brain and Behavior Research Foundation, and the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention.

    His research and articles have been featured in the New York Times, the Washington Post, and the Wall Street Journal. He has been the recipient of many awards, including Top Advancements & Breakthroughs from the Brain and Behavior Research Foundation (2017 and 2020), Top Ten Psychiatry Papers by the New England Journal of Medicine Journal Watch, the Early Career Scholar Award from the American Psychiatric Association, the Samuel Novey Writing Prize in Psychological Medicine (Johns Hopkins), the Seymour Lustman Award (Yale University), and the rank of Eagle Scout.

     

    Key Takeaways:

    • The Soul’s Pre-Birth Choice: Wilkins suggests that the notion of pre-birth choice is deeply entwined with various religious and spiritual doctrines. Many cultures and belief systems propagate the idea that souls select their lives to undergo particular experiences, learn certain lessons, or fulfill a specific destiny. Religions like Hinduism and Buddhism, for instance, often include concepts of reincarnation and karmic cycles, where the actions and choices of past lives influence the circumstances of the current one.

    • Personalized Challenges as Karmic Growth: Sam posits that the challenges we face in life are not random but are tailored specifically for individual growth. This is a karmic perspective, which suggests that our actions and experiences are interwoven with spiritual lessons that we need to learn and overcome to develop as individuals. 

    • Success vs Sustained Happiness: Wilkins underscores that genuine, meaningful relationships are crucial for sustained happiness. While material success might bring temporary satisfaction, it often fails to provide long-term fulfillment. Instead, strong interpersonal connections — whether they be friendships, family bonds, or romantic partnerships — act as consistent pillars of joy, support, and love.

    • Screen Time and Mental Well-Being: The average time people spend on their phones is equivalent to one and a half full-time jobs. This excessive screen time impacts other enriching activities, such as learning new skills like playing an instrument. By spending so many hours on digital devices, individuals are unknowingly sacrificing opportunities for personal growth and hobbies that contribute to overall well-being.

    This is Why 99% of People Don’t Achieve Their Goals

    You can have superior physical capabilities and technical skills and still fall short in the face of adversity. The key differentiator between success and failure lies in ability and emotional connection to the goal. Without this deep emotional investment and clear sense of purpose, even the most qualified individuals can falter when facing extreme challenges.

    • Mental Mastery Through Meditation: Meditation fundamentally alters your thought patterns and reactions. Through Zen practice, Mark learned to create space between thoughts and responses, leading to better decision-making and emotional control. This was about transforming how his mind processed experiences, ultimately reshaping his brain's structure and subjective reality.

    • Overcoming Negative Self-Talk: Purposeful management of internal dialogue can transform self-image and performance. By consistently replacing negative thoughts with positive affirmations (like "I like myself") Mark reconstructed his self-perception. This "starving fear and feeding courage" approach shows how deliberate thought management over time can overcome deeply ingrained negative programming from childhood trauma.

    • The Role of Deep Purpose: You can possess superior physical metrics and ability, and ultimately quit on day one. The difference between people who succeed and those who quit lies in their emotional connection to the goal; Having a purpose that resonates at an identity level. Surface-level competence, without deep emotional investment and clear purpose, falters in the face of extreme challenges.

    Generational Substance Abuse: The Truth About Recovery and Relapse with Samantha Harte

    Samantha’s rough childhood influenced her to find ways to escape through substance abuse. Coping mechanisms turned into a severe addiction to cocaine, alcohol, and prescription pills. She began to seek help in her 20s and through holistic 12-step programs began to make lasting change and recovery. Now Samantha is a speaker, coach, and author who helps others overcome addiction and dysfunctional family dynamics. According to Samantha, the key to recovery goes beyond sobriety; it’s about transforming your life by making amends with yourself. This sets the foundation for healing other relationships and fostering personal integrity. 

     

    Samantha Blake Harte is a yoga-certified doctor of physical therapy, performing artist, and podcast host. With over twenty years in the fitness industry and fifteen years sober, Dr. Harte integrates her personal recovery journey with her professional expertise in functional biomechanics and movement pattern retraining. She hosts "The Truth about Addiction" podcast on Spotify and Apple, discussing addiction and recovery openly. Dr. Harte values vulnerability as her strength and strives to live and love wholeheartedly. She lives in Thousand Oaks, California, with her husband, Rob, and their two children, Jack and Charly.

     

    In This Episode:

    • Early Environment And Effects on Addiction: The environment you grow up in significantly predisposes you to addictive behaviors. Growing up in a chaotic home like Samantha pushed her towards finding ways to escape, often through substances. Her experiences illustrate how children can inherit or learn dysfunctional coping strategies from their surroundings.

    • Recovery and Reconstructing Relationships: Samantha’s approach to recovery is holistic and comprehensive. It’s not just about overcoming substance abuse; it involves a deep reevaluation and reshaping of one's life. She advises adapting recovery steps to personally relevant issues, like relationships or self-image, to enhance the impact of recovery.

    • Healing Relationships for Inner Peace: A significant part of recovery involves healing damaged relationships, beginning with oneself. Make amends with yourself as the foundational step towards healing other relationships. This includes recognizing past mistakes, forgiving oneself, and committing to personal integrity moving forward.

    • Recovery Opens New Doors: Recovery is not merely about achieving sobriety; it's about holistic transformation and reclaiming one’s life from the grips of addiction. Samantha used her recovery journey to improve her personal and professional life, demonstrating that a fresh start can lead to remarkable new opportunities.

Marshall Goldsmith, a man who's coached the coaches, now wants to coach an entire generation through the power of artificial intelligence.

     

     

    Dr. Marshall Goldsmith has been recognized as one of the Top Ten Business Thinkers in the World and the top-rated executive coach at the Thinkers50 ceremony in London since 2011. Published in 2015, his book Triggers is a Wall Street Journal and New York Times #1 Bestseller! He’s also the author of the New York Times bestseller and #1 Wall Street Journal Business Book What Got You Here Won’t Get You There, winner of the Harold Longman Award as Best Business Book of the Year.

     

    • Achievement Doesn't Guarantee Happiness: Happiness and achievement are independent variables. Marshall states, "Achieve to achieve. But don't ever think achievement is going to make you happy." Michael Phelps and Albert Barlow (CEO of Pfizer) illustrate that even extraordinary achievements don't necessarily lead to lasting happiness or satisfaction.

    • Avoiding self-stereotyping: Many of our perceived limitations are self-imposed and can be overcome. Leaders should be cautious about how they stereotype themselves, it can significantly limit their potential.

    • Leadership is always changing: Modern leadership is evolving from a top-down approach to a more facilitative role. Peter Drucker states that, "The leader of the past knew how to tell, the leader of future knows how to ask." Today leaders need to be more collaborative, ask questions, and involve team members in decision-making.

    • Stakeholder-centered coaching: Marshall’s coaching methodology, which he calls "stakeholder-centered coaching," focuses on helping leaders learn from everyone around them. He emphasizes the importance of getting feedback from stakeholders, listening to it, and making measurable changes based on that input. This differs from more introspective coaching methods and focuses on practical, observable behavioral changes.

    "The fastest way to rebuild trust and intimacy is through personal storytelling.” – Bo Eason

     

    • The Power of Visualization and Persistence: Bo's journey to the NFL and later to Broadway demonstrates the power of setting a clear goal, visualizing success, and persisting despite obstacles. Success often looks impossible every day until it suddenly becomes a reality.

    • The Importance of Authentic, Vulnerable Storytelling: Effective communication, especially in leadership, requires sharing personal stories starting from one's lowest moments. This vulnerability creates trust and connection with the audience.

    • Physical Presence is Crucial in Communication: Bo highlights the significance of "physicality" in communication. He argues that body language and physical presence are often more impactful than words alone, and that people need to reconnect with their natural, "predatory" confidence.

    • Adaptability is Key to Success: From Bo's experience in the NFL to his transition into acting and speaking, a recurring theme is the importance of quickly adapting to new situations. He emphasizes that the ability to adapt rapidly is crucial in both professional sports and life in general.
