Podcast 1258: From Survival Mode to Executive Brain: Unlocking Human Potential with Dr. Eugene Choi
Update: 2025-09-16
Description
In this episode of Inside Personal Growth, Greg Voisen sits down with Eugene Choi, a transformational mindset coach, pharmacist turned entrepreneur, and founder of Destiny Hacks. Eugene shares his incredible journey from a six-figure pharmacy career to filmmaking, and ultimately to helping leaders and entrepreneurs rewire their brains for higher performance.
Listeners will hear how neuroscience and neuroplasticity reveal that 90–95% of our daily behavior runs on autopilot—often in survival mode—and how to shift into the executive state to make better decisions, access creativity, and improve well-being. Through powerful stories, including life-threatening experiences in Rio de Janeiro and lessons learned from his own family, Eugene illustrates how to overcome fight-flight-freeze responses, reduce stress, and live a more conscious, empowered life.
🎧 What Listeners Can Learn
-The science of how your brain switches between survival mode and executive mode
-Why emotional discomfort can trigger the same stress response as physical danger
-How autopilot habits form and how to reprogram them for success
-Practical tools like “Name it to tame it” to regulate emotions and reduce stress instantly
-The long-term health risks of chronic stress—and how to prevent burnout
-How self-talk and awareness can transform relationships, leadership, and performance
