Your brain isn’t broken—it’s underpowered.
Energy crashes, poor sleep, brain fog, and emotional reactivity don’t just happen. You’re running on low voltage, and your mind pays the price.
In this episode, Dave sits down with Dr. Patrick Porter, founder of BrainTap, to reveal how to reprogram your brain using light, sound, and guided visualization—no substances, no side effects, no BS.
Dr. Porter breaks down how to activate gamma brainwaves, repair trauma loops, access psychedelic-like states, and boost cognitive performance by 19% in just six weeks.
You’ll learn why most brains burn out decades too soon—and how to charge yours back up.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
• How to flood your brain with energy and wake it up
• The light and sound protocol that mimics psychedelics—safely
• What gamma brainwaves unlock—and how to generate them on demand
• Why your default mode network traps you in stress and distraction
• The BrainTap protocol that improved cognition by 19% in 6 weeks
• A real-life transformation story that rewrote one woman’s fate
• The link between sleep, trauma, brain states, and performance
• How to build a brain that performs like it’s decades younger
This episode gives you a playbook to reclaim your focus, deepen your rest, and experience the full range of human consciousness—without touching a drug.
Turn your brain on. Then turn it up.
