Simple Ways to Sharpen Your Memory, Lear...

Jim Kwik, Your Brain Coach, Founder www.KwikLearning.com
About this episode

What if your brain’s sharpness wasn’t just luck—but something you could train?

In today’s episode, I’m joined by Dr. Therese Huston, cognitive scientist and author of Sharp: 14 Simple Ways to Improve Your Life with Brain Science. We dive into practical, science-backed techniques to boost your focus, decision-making, and memory—without burning out.

You’ll learn why multitasking is secretly sabotaging your performance, how a 40Hz binaural beat can dial in your concentration, and why picturing the process (not just the outcome) can crush procrastination. Dr. Houston also shares the neuroscience behind emotional regulation, what exercise snacks can do for cognitive fatigue, and even why dark chocolate may be your brain’s new best friend.

Whether you’re a student, leader, parent, or lifelong learner, this episode will help you create a sharper brain day—one small shift at a time. You’re not stuck with the brain you have. You can build it. And today, we’ll show you how.
