Summary

In Episode #78, I sat down with Drs Dean and Ayesha Sherzai for a second episode on brain health (both were previously guests on Episode #65). I cannot even begin to describe how brilliant these guys are. In this information-packed, 2-hour episode, we talk about creating an environment to help kids flourish, the importance of sleep for brain health, tips for optimising sleep, why it’s important to be able to hyperfocus, how to improve focus, removing inhibitions and the practice of ‘fearless’ living, what we should be eating, and much more.
