Patrick K. Porter, PhD. dedicated his life to studying neuropsychology. For years it was believed that we have a set number of brain cells, that our intelligence quotient is fixed, and that our brains do not change. Dr. Porter’s clinical experience and research told a different story, revealing that the human brain is, in fact, plastic, making it capable of change, improvement, and expansion.

Dr. Porter’s exploration sparked incredible transformation for thousands of people. In 2014, with the emerging Apple and Android mobile devices, he saw the opportunity to impact millions by leveraging these new mobile app platforms by founding the brain fitness company – BrainTap®.

Today I am honored to have a conversation with Dr. Porter to discuss what BrainTap is and how its brain fitness benefits extend far beyond sleep and stress reduction to help our brains function at peak performance and our bodies to reset to its natural rhythm.

I've been using BrainTap personally and with my clients for over 5 years and have seen the benefits first hand. My sleep improved, my memory, focus and concentration have all been enhanced using BrainTap daily

In this podcast episode, we explore the experience of receiving an ADHD diagnosis as an adult and the challenges and opportunities that come with it. Our guest, Erica Hague, was diagnosed with ADHD in her 50s, she shares their journey of self-discovery and acceptance, from recognizing the symptoms and seeking professional help to finding a supportive community and developing coping strategies. We also discuss the stigma and misconceptions surrounding ADHD, the impact of late diagnosis on mental health and relationships, and the benefits of reframing ADHD as a neurodivergent trait rather than a disorder. Finally, we offer tips and resources for anyone who suspects they may have ADHD or knows someone who does, and emphasize the importance of seeking professional guidance and understanding oneself holistically.

How many times have you had a moment where you could sincerely pause and rest but you quickly find ways to fill the time? Rest isn't just for your body, it's for your mind, soul and spirit as well. In this episode we'll reflect on the importance of rest and divine moments when we're able to settle in the presence of the Lord. It's in these intentional moments that we're able to hear what needs to be heard, ingest what nourishes us and reflect on what grows us. Rest is the prelude to all the wonderful things the future has to hold. Join me today for a moment of rest.
