Ep 017: 5 ways to hack your brain and overcome or accomplish anything

Over the course of my life, I’ve overcome trauma, depression, crippling anxiety, and some deeply rooted behavioural patterns. I've studied the brain, our psychology and come to understand the intense power of the mind.  

 In today’s episode, I will teach you about 5 key concepts that I've used to ‘hack my brain’ and overcome all of the challenges and adversity I've faced in my life. This has been transformational for me, and I hope it serves you in a powerful way!
