What if the chemistry of your day—your calm, your focus, your energy—could be shifted by sound? We sit down with Maury Zelkovich, the creator behind a long-running brainwave entrainment method, to unpack how rhythmic audio can guide neural firing, change brain chemistry, and reshape how you think and feel through midlife and beyond.

Some stories are spoken. Others are lived so powerfully they outshine words. Karen Wilson joins us to share how a 17-year caregiving journey with her mother—through cancer, stroke, COPD, and chronic pain—became a living curriculum for resilience, presence, and protective love.
