Malcolm-Jamal Warner and Candace Kelley sit down with world-renowned neuropsychologist and New York Times bestselling author Dr. Joseph McClendon III. Together, they unpack the psychology of fear, family trauma, and self-sabotage while exploring Joseph’s groundbreaking method of neuroencoding—a science-based approach to rewiring the brain for success.

The trio explores how communication is either a cry for help or an expression of love, why people often attract the very things they don’t want, and how to snap out of fear and stress almost instantly. Dr. McClendon introduces the “Toxic 10”, ten hidden fears like procrastination, hesitation, self-doubt, and imposter syndrome—that quietly steal dreams. Through storytelling, personal breakthroughs, and raw reflection, this episode teaches how to reframe negativity, build options, and transform setbacks into growth.

Listeners gain real-world strategies for breaking destructive thought patterns, recognizing toxic influences, building discernment, and living healthier, happier, and more financially abundant lives. With Malcolm’s honesty, Candace’s sharp insights, and Joseph’s transformative wisdom, this is more than a podcast, it’s a masterclass in mindset, healing, and lasting change. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
