We are beyond excited for this episode today for many reasons. First, we’re excited to have Dr. Mark Guadagnoli on today because of his expertise and vast knowledge within neuroscience and human performance and second, is because he is the professor we studied under while in college and he’s the one who ultimately inspired James’s passion for neuroscience and personal development. He’s been a mentor of James’s for many years and we am honored to have him on the show!
