In Episode 156, you will hear from Dr. Caroline Leaf, neuroscientist, author of numerous books, and global speaker, talking with Phil about:

• How the mind controls the brain and why that is important
• The plasticity of the brain and how it gives us great hope in our work with orphaned and vulnerable children
• The importance of reconceptualizing your past, and rewiring and changing any toxicity in your brain
• Examining and challenging some of the research connected to attachment theory and other orphan care principles
• The importance of knowing your true identity, the science of identity, and how science points us to God and is working to catch up to the Bible.
• The concept that we can't control our circumstances but we can control how we react to our circumstances
• The place of medication in the context of caring for children suffering from mental and physical disorders and/or trauma in their lives
• And so much more!
