As we grow older, many people consider anxiety, low energy, difficulty losing weight, and brain fog to be the body and mind’s normal reaction to aging. The harsh truth is that burnout and stress paralyze us, but our brain is smarter and more resilient than we think. In fact, our brain is neuroplastic, regardless of age, and has the power to change and adapt due to different experiences. Most people aren’t aware of the power that lies within our brain.

Dr. Patrick Porter,  Founder and CEO at BrainTap, has spent over 20 years educating people about the brain’s potential. He strives to improve lives by enhancing the brain’s function and true capabilities. He’s an award-winning author, educator, consultant, entrepreneur, and speaker who’s on a mission to “better a billion brains.”

Dr. Porter talks to Jen about how BrainTap relies on neuropsychology to unlock optimal living, deregulate stress, and find balance in a chaotic world.
