| How to Prevent Cognitive Decline: Neurologists Share 6 Key Brain-Boosting Habits | Be Well Moments | 05 Apr 2025 | 00:15:18 | |
This conversation hit me hard as my own grandmother suffered from Alzheimer's for 14 years before passing. If you're worried about cognitive decline for yourself or someone you love, this clip delivers game-changing insights. The neurologists break down why women are more susceptible to Alzheimer's, and reveal the NEURO plan - a simple framework anyone can follow to protect their brain health. They debunk the oversimplified "Type 3 Diabetes" theory and explain how up to 80% of dementia cases might be preventable through lifestyle changes. This isn't just about adding years to your life, but life to your years by protecting your most precious asset - your mind. *** Thank you to my wonderful sponsors!

| Simon Sinek: The ADHD Superpower - Why It’s My Greatest Advantage | 02 Apr 2025 | 01:23:21 | |
This week, I’m sitting down once again with someone who’s not only inspired millions around the world but has become a close friend - Simon Sinek. It’s such a joy to have this deeply open and personal conversation in his own home, where we journey far beyond leadership theory into the very heart of identity, self-acceptance, and the messy beauty of being human. Simon is the renowned author of Start With Why, Leaders Eat Last, and The Infinite Game. Known globally for his work on leadership and purpose, Simon has transformed how organisations and individuals think about fulfilment, motivation, and long-term success. But in this episode, we strip all that back. What was Simon like before his big ideas took shape? How did his ADHD diagnosis in adulthood impact him? And why does he believe our unique neurodivergence can be our greatest superpower? We speak candidly about mental health, self-doubt, the friction of neurodivergence, and why vulnerability with friends has been key to Simon’s own journey of growth. This isn’t the Simon you’ve heard in keynote speeches - this is the Simon who’s still evolving, still curious, and still navigating change. I think you’ll find real comfort and wisdom in what he shares. About Simon Sinek: Simon is a bestselling author, inspirational speaker, and unshakable optimist. His work focuses on leadership, purpose, and building a better world by helping people live and lead more fulfilled lives. His TED Talk on “Start With Why” is one of the most watched of all time, and his ideas have influenced everyone from Fortune 500 CEOs to early-stage entrepreneurs. Follow Simon Sinek:

| The MOST Surprising Food That Fights Disease & Helps With Losing Weight | Doug Evans | 26 Feb 2025 | 01:12:36 | |
For years, we've been sold the idea that eating healthy is complicated, expensive, or out of reach. But what if I told you the most powerful superfood on the planet is something you can grow in your kitchen without soil, sunlight, or even much effort? This week on Live Well, Be Well, I sit down with Doug Evans, the ultimate advocate for sprouting, to uncover how these tiny plants can revolutionise our health, longevity, and even the global food system. Doug isn’t just a passionate Sprout evangelist—his journey from a fast-food diet to becoming the Sprout Guy is nothing short of transformational. He shares the science behind why sprouts are nutritional powerhouses, packed with protein, antioxidants, and micronutrients that can help combat chronic disease, enhance gut health, and support sustainable eating. We also dive into his personal story—from overcoming a tough upbringing to discovering the raw, plant-based lifestyle that changed everything. And yes, we tackle the myths: Are sprouts safe? Do they contain enough protein? Can you really thrive eating just sprouts? Doug has the answers, and they might just challenge everything you thought you knew about nutrition. In This Episode, We Explore: ✔️ Why sprouts might be the most nutrient-dense food on the planet ✔️ The simple, affordable way to grow your own food at home ✔️ How sprouting can increase protein, vitamins, and antioxidants by over 300% ✔️ The science behind sulforaphane and its powerful benefits for brain and metabolic health ✔️ Doug’s personal transformation and how he became the face of the sprouting revolution ✔️ The truth about food justice, sustainability, and why sprouting could change the way we eat This episode is packed with game-changing insights, practical takeaways, and a new way to look at food. Whether you're a hardcore health enthusiast or just curious about levelling up your nutrition, this conversation will leave you inspired to rethink what’s possible in your kitchen.

| What Is Trauma? Escape Toxic Relationships & Develop Self Compassion | Dr Mariel Buqué | 17 Jan 2024 | 01:06:55 | |
Trauma sounds big and scary. The truth is less overwhelming, and far more ordinary that we might think. Getting to grips with our own trauma - however big or small - is at the heart of understanding ourselves and our relationships. It passes down from generation to generation, often invisibly, like a passing genetic disease. How to interrupt this flow? Identify it, embrace it and don’t brush it away. This way the cycle of intergenerational trauma can be broken. Dr. Mariel Buqué is a Columbia University-trained psychologist, intergenerational trauma expert and author of the new book ‘Break The Cycle’. Dr Buqué will soothe your soul in this conversation, explaining how we can identify our trauma, how to practice self compassion and ultimately grow.

| How to Prevent Alzheimer’s and Boost Your Brain Health with these PROVEN Foods | The Brain Docs | 19 Feb 2025 | 01:24:30 | |
I’ve always been fascinated by brain health—how we think, feel, and function is deeply tied to how we live our lives. And yet, for so long, cognitive decline has been framed as an inevitable part of ageing. But what if that’s not the full story? In this Live Well, Be Well episode, I sit down with two of the world’s leading neurologists, Drs. Dean and Ayesha Sherzai to explore the cutting-edge science of brain health, neuroplasticity, and longevity. Their work is revolutionising our understanding of how we can actively shape our cognitive future—and the truth is, we have far more control than we think. We get into: ✔️ The myth of brain ageing—why decline isn’t inevitable and how we can strengthen our cognition at any age. ✔️ The power of neuroplasticity—how small daily habits can rewire the brain for better focus, memory, and resilience. ✔️The sleep-brain connection. Why deep sleep is the ultimate detox and the number one factor for long-term cognitive health. ✔️Food as medicine for the brain—how the MIND Diet has been shown to reduce Alzheimer’s risk by over 50%. ✔️The real impact of stress on cognition—and how we can train our brains to handle pressure more effectively. ✔️The attention crisis—how social media and technology are rewiring our minds and what we can do to regain control. Drs. Dean and Ayesha Sherzai are co-directors of the Alzheimer’s Prevention Program at Loma Linda University and the authors of The Alzheimer’s Solution.

| Which Exercise Makes You Smarter, According To Science | Dr Brendon Stubbs | 25 Oct 2023 | 00:56:12 | |
What’s going on inside your brain when you exercise, after you exercise, and what happens when you don’t? These are the questions Dr Brendon Stubbs is trying to resolve with his research. He’s one of the most cited scientists in the world, focusing on the link between physical activity and mental health, the mind-body interface and healthy ageing. Exercise is one of the best ways to beat anxiety and depression and reduce stress, so how much do you need, when and how often? In this conversation, Brendon explains the phenomenon of the brain ‘lighting up’ after exercise - sometimes called ‘runner’s high’. It can even cause the size of the hippocampus to change - the part of the brain responsible for memory. Brendon shares exciting new research showing exercise can make us smarter, and explains how movement can help defeat brain fog.

| 3 NEW Science-Backed Blue Zone Strategies Increase Your Lifespan & Happiness: Dan Buettner | 12 Feb 2025 | 01:13:49 | |
What if the secret to living a longer, healthier life wasn’t in a pill, supplement, or biohacking trend—but in your environment, relationships, and daily habits? In this episode, I sit down with Dan Buettner, National Geographic explorer, bestselling author, and longevity researcher, to break down the science of the Blue Zones—regions of the world where people live the longest and thrive well into their 90s and 100s. We dive deep into the data-driven habits that contribute to longevity, why your social circle can determine your health, and the biggest myths about aging and diet. Dan also shares his response to recent criticisms about the Blue Zones and reveals new emerging longevity hotspots based on his latest research. In this episode, we cover: ✔️ The 5 regions in the world where people consistently live the longest ✔️ Why community and social connection are more powerful than willpower ✔️ The ideal longevity diet based on decades of research ✔️ How your environment is the #1 factor in shaping health outcomes ✔️ The biggest longevity myths - and what actually works ✔️ How modern society is eroding these Blue Zone principles - and what we can do about it Who is Dan Buettner? Dan Buettner is a National Geographic fellow, New York Times bestselling author, and founder of Blue Zones, a research initiative dedicated to understanding and applying the world’s best practices for longevity. His work has led to policy changes in over 70 cities to improve public health, and his Netflix documentary, Live to 100: Secrets of the Blue Zones, explores these regions in depth. 👉 Connect with Dan Buettner:
