204. Optimizing Your Brain For A Better Life w/ Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor

Welcome to EP 204 of The Decoding Success Podcast! Do you want to optimize your life? It's safe to say the answer is yes... But, to do so, we have to be willing to get an understanding of our BRAIN and to ensure we're living life with a WHOLE BRAIN approach. Today's guest, Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor is helping us do just that.  WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor is a Harvard-trained and published neuroscientist. In 1996 she experienced a severe hemorrhage in the left hemisphere of her brain causing her to lose the ability to walk, talk, read, write, or recall any of her life. Her memoir, My Stroke of Insight, documenting her experience with stroke and eight-year recovery, spent 63 weeks on the New York Times nonfiction bestseller list and is still routinely the #1 book about stroke on Amazon.  Dr. Jill is a dynamic teacher and public speaker who loves educating all age groups, academic levels, as well as corporations about the beauty of our human brain and its ability to recover from trauma. In 2008 she gave the first TED talk that ever went viral on the Internet, which now has well over 26 million views. Also in 2008, Dr. Jill was chosen as one of Time magazine’s “100 Most Influential People in the World” and was the premiere guest on Oprah Winfrey’s “Soul Series” webcast.
