How to Prevent Cognitive Decline: Neurologists Share 6 Key Brain-Boosting Habits | Be Well Moments
Saison 16 · Épisode 2
samedi 5 avril 2025 • Durée 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.

Simon Sinek: The ADHD Superpower - Why It’s My Greatest Advantage
mercredi 2 avril 2025 • Durée 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.
The MOST Surprising Food That Fights Disease & Helps With Losing Weight | Doug Evans
mercredi 26 février 2025 • Durée 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
mercredi 17 janvier 2024 • Durée 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.
