Episode • Nov 30, 2023 • 1h 10m

I am excited to chat with a longtime friend who is a fellow expert in how to make your brain work better. Jim Kwik is an absolute wizard when it comes to maximizing your brain's potential. We go way back, over a decade, and I can vouch for his incredible expertise in the realm of cognitive enhancement. He also has just released an expanded addition to his best-selling book, Limitless, where he delves deep into topics that both he and I hold near and dear—nootropics and brain enhancement.

Jim Kwik is a widely recognized world expert in memory improvement, brain function, and accelerated learning. After a childhood brain injury left him learning-challenged, Kwik created strategies to dramatically enhance his mental performance. He has since dedicated his life to helping others unleash their true genius. In addition to being an author, he serves as ultra-informed host of the top education training podcast: Kwik Brain. His mission: No brain left behind.

From overcoming childhood adversity and turning it into a superpower, to the secrets behind better memory and accelerated learning, this episode is full of tools for enhancing cognitive function. Plus, we explore the groundbreaking concepts Jim covers in Limitless: Expanded, including the use of nootropics to elevate brain function, his favorite daily biohacking techniques and brain exercises, and how identifying your brain animal can enhance your self awareness and therefore potential.
