data-driven coaching, and education-focused content. Before we get into this podcast, I just want to say

thank you for taking the time to listen and learn with me so that you can apply what you are

about to learn, take my strategies, use these tools, and finally have

This podcast was built on the foundation of applied education, and I'm excited for you to be here

so you can have that experience with me. Now, without any further ado, let's get on to the show.

Today's guest is Dr. Stephen Guine, the author of The Hungry Brain.

we're going to dive
