Brain Shaman
Brain Shaman is a philosophical and scientific journey towards better brain health. Michael Waite discusses how you can change your brain state and overall nervous system via behavior, nutrition, nature, and technology. Mental illness, addiction, and low brain function are destroying so many people and societies. By becoming increasingly disconnected from our natural mind-body-world and plugged into the artificial ones, we are getting sicker, weaker, and less free. We must become more conscious of how the information that we consume (in the form of action, food, drugs, sensory input, media, etc.) affects our brain. This podcast teaches you how to reconnect with your primordial nature, reprogram your brain, regain your freedom, and redirect your life.

Eric Zwigart: The ADHD Brain in Business and Faith | Episode 134
In this episode, I talk with Eric Zwigart, CEO of Rock Solid Capital Investments, about how ADHD has shaped his career, faith, and life. Eric shares how ADHD shows up for him — both the challenges, like distraction, difficulty listening, and time blindness, and the advantages, including intense focus, pattern recognition, and creative problem-solving.
He reflects on running a $150 million-a-year oil company that collapsed during COVID, costing him $35 million personally, and how that experience changed his perspective.
We discuss entrepreneurship, real estate, and what it takes to thrive in a field full of risk and opportunity. Eric shares lessons from both successes and setbacks: leveraging strengths, recognizing weaknesses, working with others, having faith, balancing risk, and more. He explains how these experiences have helped him prioritize family, community, and faith, guiding him in building a life, career, and investments aligned with what matters most.
