This week’s episode is with Shawna Hughes, a Registered Holistic Nutritionist for parents of kids with ADHD.

Anxiety is something Shawna has struggled with over the years and through these experiences, she has seen firsthand how improving our diet can positively impact ADHD and anxiety. Having figured out the diet and lifestyle strategies that work best for her and her family, she's now dedicated to helping other parents in similar situations to find what works for their families through Nutrition and Lifestyle Coaching.

Kate and Shawna spoke about:

• Nutrition, supplements and vitamins that are highly beneficial for the ADHD brain
• Diet and food choices alongside ADHD medication
• Digestion and gut issues that often go hand-in-hand with ADHD
• How our diet can affect wider aspects of wellness with ADHD
• Vitamin deficiencies in ADHD and the most effective supplementation
• Wellbeing tips and advice to help ADHD
• Supplements for good sleep

Connect with Shawna via Instagram, and on her website, www.shawnahughesnutrition.com.

Happiness does not happen by chance, we can chemically and structurally change our brains to be happy. In this episode, I will tell you how!

You've probably experienced a few aha moments in your life. Moments where an idea for a new business or piece of art, or a solution to a sticky technical, relational, or philosophical problem, suddenly popped into your mind.

What causes these proverbial light bulbs to go off over our heads? What's going on in your brain when you experience an insight? And can you do anything to encourage more "aha" moments?

My guest has spent his career researching the answers to these questions. His name is John Kounios, and he's a professor of psychology and the author of the book The Eureka Factor: Aha Moments, Creative Insight, and the Brain. We begin our conversation discussing how researchers define what an insight is, and examples of how scientists and musicians have experienced them. John then walks us through the stages that lead up to getting an insight and explains what is going on in our brains right before and at the moment we experience one. We end our conversation discussing ways you can increase your chances of receiving insights, including the kind of environment and even color that encourages them most.
