In this episode, Dr. Laura sits down with two special guests—Dr. Michael Longyear and Dr. Meg Longyear, renowned for their innovative approach to brain and emotional health. Together, they explore the groundbreaking concept of neuroplasticity, debunking the myth that brain change only happens in childhood and sharing real-life stories of transformation at any age.
You’ll hear Dr. Michael’s incredible personal journey from paralysis to recovery after a football injury and learn how chiropractic care and neuroplasticity played a pivotal role in his healing. Dr. Meg opens up about her lifelong battle with depression, self-esteem struggles, and addiction—and the transformative power of neuro emotional technique (NET) in reclaiming her true self. They’ll unpack complex topics like limbic loops, chronic pain, and why the stories we tell ourselves matter for our brains, and our lives.
Whether you’re a parent concerned about your child’s development or someone searching for new tools to rewrite your own narrative, this episode is packed with scientific insights, heartfelt stories, and practical ways to support emotional and neurological wellbeing. Tune in as Dr. Laura, Dr. Michael, and Dr. Meg show you just how connected and capable your brain really is.
