About this episode
Jim Kwik’s brain health challenges began at age five, after a childhood injury left him struggling to read, learn, and remember. Once labeled “the boy with the broken brain,” he spent years discovering how memory, focus, and learning can be trained. Now, AI, smartphones, and constant distraction are making these abilities easier to neglect, especially as entrepreneurs increasingly rely on technology to work faster and more efficiently.
