Holistic Circle Podcast Spiritual Conversation today with

host: Philipp Kobald

guest: George Haymaker

Is “Fake It Till You Make It” Backed by Brain Science?

George Haymaker, a 64-year-old entrepreneur from Napa, California, turned his life around after addiction and now works as a neuroscience educator and coach, helping people rewire their mental patterns.He explains how our brain forms—and can re-form—who we are, emphasizing the science behind change without straying into spiritual speculation.Through practical coaching rooted in neuro-constructionist theory, George helps clients overcome addiction, anxiety, and stuck identities by building new mental habits over time.Rather than fixating on the past, his method focuses on constructing the future self—through repetition, motivation, and a bit of faking it until the neurons make it.For anyone curious about transforming their mindset with brain-based methods, this conversation offers a deep dive worth exploring further.
