Summary

This week I get to chat to Daniel Amen, an American celebrity doctor who practices as a psychiatrist and brain disorder specialist as director of the Amen Clinics. We have a fascinating conversation about mental health, and an opinion of what it means to study the brain and how to take care of it from a different perspective than reflected in the mainstream. This is not a recommendation to stop taking any medication you may have been prescribed to treat mental health disorders. SAMHSA’s National Helpline is a free, confidential, 24/7, 365-day-a-year treatment referral and information service (in English and Spanish) for individuals and families facing mental and/or substance use disorders. -- Have you heard about the HOTLINE yet? Call (737) 400-HOCO, and press 1 to leave a question for Rach. Press 2 to share your story about the Hollis Company - it can be about your Start Today Journal, attending a RISE conference, coaching, or anything you want! We can't wait to hear from you ;) RISE Women’s Conference is about taking full ownership of your life and the woman you want to become. This is not an experience for you to transform into someone else, this is three full days of immersion to remind yourself how special you already are! At RISE we don’t believe there’s one right way to be a woman, we believe in women being as diverse and original as possible. Each and every one of us has incredible talent and skills — our own unique potential to offer the world — but as little girls, we’re taught to conform, be small, fit into someone else’s ideal of what a “good girl” is. RISE is about redefining the best version of yourself and creating a roadmap to help you become her. Get your tickets here! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Dr. Avin, I feel like starting with the fact that I finally got my chance to go to one

of your clinics and do the brain scan and experience all of that is what I'm really excited
