  • Natalie Baker: Can neurofeedback help treat ADHD?

    Natalie Baker: Can neurofeedback help treat ADHD?
    Feb 3 2025

    Episode 195 with Natalie Baker.


    “Neurofeedback is really about identifying maladaptive brain waves, then training the brain to correct them.”


    Natalie is a licensed psychotherapist, a certified brain health coach, and a dedicated Buddhist practitioner and teacher based in New York City. Given her Western training in psychology and psychotherapy and her Eastern training in meditation, Natalie brings a broader, holistic perspective to mental health and well-being.


    Natalie began integrating neurofeedback technology into her therapy practice after witnessing its profound impact on trauma clients and those with ADHD and anxiety. She later founded the Neurofeedback Training Company to offer in-office and home neurofeedback programs nationally.


    Natalie discusses the benefits of this science-backed, non-invasive therapy, and how neurofeedback can help train our brains to function more effectively, including improved focus, reduced anxiety, more regulated emotions, and better sleep.


    If you’ve never heard of neurofeedback — or if you’ve heard about it and would like to know more about how it might apply to ADHD, then you don’t want to miss this episode because we go over all the details, including who it’s for, how it works, and how much it costs.

  • Unami Magwenzi: Lost passports & cross-cultural divides

    Unami Magwenzi: Lost passports & cross-cultural divides
    Jan 6 2025

    Episode 194 with Unami Magwenzi.


    “I always felt like something didn’t quite click for me. I was capable and doing all these things professionally, but I never felt on top of anything.”


    Unami is a clinical psychologist, a pastor, a wife, and the mother of 4 children — 3 teenagers and a 5 year old. She is originally from Botswana in Southern Africa and now lives with her family in Perth, Western Australia.


    Unami shares how her children’s diagnoses prompted her own self-reflection, especially when it came to her struggles with focus, organization, and sensory sensitivities. She was diagnosed recently at the age of 44.


    We talk about some of the nuanced cultural perspectives surrounding ADHD, particularly in southern Africa versus Australia, and how those views have shaped Unami’s journey to self-acceptance.

Hello Me

I love these interviews, especially how long the guest speaker can just talk about their experiences. These podcasts are so interesting and helpful.
As someone who is about to be assessed for ADHD I've found listening to these interviews like a torch light shining on many of my traits and how I operate.
I'm also amazed at the masking aspect, I've had a few aha moments thinking about this and how I can see myself doing this and it's so ingrained within my response options.
Thanks so much for providing this podcast, I really appreciate it.
Anita
