Saving Your Life Through Logic and Mind Mastery w/Travis Corcoran D.C.


Listen Later

What if burnout isn’t just physical — but the erosion of our ability to think clearly?

Guest: Dr. Travis Corcoran – author of Restoring Reason, founder of Top Chiro, builder of 30+ chiropractic clinics in recipient of the Sherman College Service Award, and a proud Delta Sigma Chi brother.


In this deep dive, Dr. Travis Corcoran brings the Trivium — grammar, logic, and rhetoric — into the healing space for exhausted providers. He offers a powerful framework for rebuilding the mind as the foundation for restoring health and freedom. This is a masterclass in emotional digestion, intellectual self-defense, and reclaiming your inner terrain.


  • Grammar: The structure of knowledge. Just because something is edible doesn’t mean it’s nutritious — and just because data exists doesn’t make it true. Grammar is the input we must learn to digest properly.

  • Logic: Understanding is internal. Logic is the power source of the mind, the digestion of data into meaning. “True understanding is not your perspective or emotion — it is what can stand up to objection.”
    Rhetoric: Wisdom is the ethical expression of correct knowledge and understanding. How we communicate truth reflects our intellectual integrity.
    Emotions are indicators, not decisions.

  • You can evade critical thinking, but not the consequences of not thinking.

  • The nervous system stores unprocessed inputs — trauma, ideas, shame — and it changes how we relate to truth.

  • Most people are reacting from emotional habit, not conscious logic.
    The Trivium gives you intellectual weapons. You cannot protect your health if you cannot defend your mind.

  • Chronic cognitive dissonance erodes your nervous system’s adaptability and your life’s trajectory.
    “The ultimate self-defense is the defense of the mind.”

    People chase titles to feel safe, but lose themselves in roles.
    Ask: Do I identify with the values of an image, or the title itself?
    Rationality = conformity to reality.
    You cannot destroy the ego, but you must wield it with integrity and awareness.

  • What would life look like if I was no longer a slave to my emotions?
    Am I applying what I know consciously — or unconsciously?


  • Where in my life am I mentally lazy — and how is that hurting those I love?
