The Voyage Cast: Real Talk on Relationships and Mental Wellness

What if you could train your brain the same way an athlete trains their body? In this powerful episode of The Voyage Cast, we sit down with Santiago Brand—expert in clinical and sports psychology—to explore how neurofeedback and biofeedback are transforming mental health, cognitive performance, and emotional resilience.

Santiago shares his personal journey into the world of brain optimization and walks us through the science behind brain mapping, EEGs, and training the brain to self-regulate—using tools as simple as video games and movies. From managing anxiety, sleep disorders, and anger to enhancing focus and emotional stability, these cutting-edge tools are helping clients take control of their mental well-being like never before.

You’ll hear an inspiring story of recovery from severe brain damage, and how neurofeedback played a pivotal role in healing. Santiago also explains how EEG feedback is helping today’s tech-addicted generation understand the impact of screen exposure, overstimulation, and sleep disruption on their brains.

Plus, we dive into the growing use of biofeedback—from supporting cancer recovery to strengthening emotional regulation in couples therapy. This episode is packed with real-world applications, powerful insights, and a hopeful look at how we can all unlock our brain’s full potential.

If you’re curious about mental performance, emotional resilience, or cutting-edge therapy tools, this conversation is a must.
