In this episode of Planet Em, Emily breaks down the neuroscience of reality and how your brain constructs every experience you’ve ever had. She explains why what you see isn’t actually “out there,” how color is created in the brain, why your beliefs shape what you perceive, and why your mindset, memories, conditioning, and self-talk all affect the version of reality you experience.

Emily shares examples from her time in visual system research, explains why optical illusions prove that the brain is guessing and filling in the gaps, and walks through how sound, color, and even self-image are constructed internally. She also talks about the subconscious mind, shadow work, the role of programming and beliefs, and why you are always manifesting based on the way your brain is wired.

She ends with her top three tips for creating your reality: reprogramming beliefs, changing your self-talk, and regulating your nervous system so your brain can build the version of life you actually want to experience.

In this first episode of Planet Em, Emily walks through the full story of how she went from being sick, overwhelmed, and labeled with every diagnosis in the book… to finding neuroscience, changing her brain, and building a life she never thought was possible.

She shares what her childhood and teen years were like, her mental and physical health struggles, how she accidentally fell into neuroscience, the moment she realized she could change her brain, why she started posting online, and the major turning point that pushed her to leave her PhD and step fully into her purpose.

This episode sets the foundation for everything this podcast is about: understanding your brain, regulating your nervous system, leveling up your mindset, and becoming the version of you that you know is waiting. If you’re ready to rewire your brain and step into your next level, this one is for you
