Entrepreneur and Author Billy Carson How to Have a Better Brain

Entrepreneur and author @billycarsonofficial didn’t grow up having it all. In fact, his upbringing was filled with stress and trauma—which can negatively impact your brain and contribute to depression, resentment, and anxiety. He experienced the type of trauma that can cause changes in the brain that make you more likely to turn to alcohol, drugs, sex, or video games for relief from painful memories. But not Carson. He used the childhood trauma he faced to fuel his ambitions and turn his pain into purpose. But even though he’s reached a high level of success, he wanted to know if he could be performing at an even higher level if he can improve his brain health. That’s why he visited Amen Clinics to get a brain SPECT scan.

When you grow up with childhood trauma or in a stressful environment, it can play a major role in shaping your mental health as an adult. In many cases, adverse childhood experiences have a negative impact on brain function and mental health.

For Carson, the odds seemed to be stacked against him. His dad was an alcoholic and drug addict. In an effort to get away from that negative influence, his mom moved the family to a town in Florida that, unfortunately, turned out to be so crime-ridden the police wouldn’t even go there. “They called it the Bermuda Triangle,” Carson says.

By age 6, Carson was seeing people getting stabbed or being killed in the neighborhood. “It was a normal everyday event,” he says. At night, he would grab a butcher knife, push over the dinette table, put his siblings behind it, then stand guard all night to protect them. The town was so tough the school crossing guards would try to rob the kids on the way to school. The junior high school he attended got closed down because kids were murdering each other.

With that start in life, it wouldn’t be a surprise if Carson had fallen into the same negative behaviors as the other neighbor kids. But something about Carson was different. He told his mother, “I don’t belong here.” And he started looking for a way out.

Billy’s is my favorite Scan My Brain episode. He’s gone through hell and back, and he chooses to help others and the world. What an inspiration! Such resilience. Cheers to his continued success.

The fact that Billy is still finding ways to evolve and better himself says a lot to humanity. We can always improve and do more.

[Sahjama]

He said "Turn your pain into purpose". Indeed!

Mr. Carson seems to be an Angel on earth. Typically angels here go through a form of numbing which is necessary for their awareness of their mission to be heightened. There is typically close to death experiences as well, although the Angel on earth can not leave this realm until their mission is completed.
Another common trait is that angels on earth have troubles with blood family and usually leave the home early.
The reality is they are not here to be a part of that one family, rather they come to earth to enhance the lives of several families of the world. Angels on earth have a high spiritual IQ and physically should consume a high mineral diet.
I see lots of similarities just looking at Mr. Carson’s face and hearing some of his story.
It’s beautiful to see the angels at work. 🥰

It's a lot of people with similar stories and don't end up as well off as Billy but much respect for his ability to stay focused and positive 👏

[nathangold]

I get to say over & over again to myself every day that no one is coming to save me. It’s so darn true. Idc what stupid religion says. I’m experiencing this reality right here right now & any other time 24/7 coach.

Environment is everything! Billy’s story is phenomenal. In reality, most people will not be able to escape these circumstances due to lack of sustainable resources, neighborhood violence, parental neglect, poor education system, family obligations, cultural ideologies, and external forces pressuring you not to evolve. Unfortunately, everyone doesn’t have boots to pull themselves up by or toys to sell to create more resources. Most people wouldn’t last a week with those situations. Thank you Brother Billy for being doing your best to provide opportunities to disenfranchised youth who are often ignored in our society. 😍💯💯

Thank you, Dr. Amen!! Billy is a huge inspiration for so many of us to become greater versions of ourselves. It's astounding what Billy has gone through, yet has accomplished so much from his beginnings in life. I appreciate the work you do Dr. Amen.

[Wisdom-keeper]

This is the reason why I incarcerated on this earth to share love between souls ❤️🙏🏾💯

[adominique]

Wow so real a man like Billy Carson just went so raw and open about something so personal.... Respect to Billy and that amazing Doctor 🙏🏾

[Ts-hrvb]

It took me way too long to figure out what Billy found out at 7 that no one cared. Also people that you love who throw their lives away on small thinking as you try out of love to rescue them while my own life was ticking away with age. I’ve decided to do my dreams and forget about them before it’s too late for me.

[dorothyreynolds]

I like the way he talks about what happened to him he is very brave and doctor Amen is so kind and respectful to him. Amen was so positive I wish I had the people in my life wise.

[carolinelaronda]

I feel like whatever brain injury Billy had enhanced another part of his brain that makes him super intelligent. He just seems so well rounded and perfect . It’s hard to say he needs anything based off of his stellar attitude and exceptional accomplishments

[brothersagalah]

I can identify with Billy Carson. Met him at a lecture in Los Angeles. A great guy

[NashPotatoesOutdoorShow]

Thanks for another great episode Dr. Amen! I actually got my brain scanned today...

[ritaromano]

That was amazing. We literally got to see another side of you. 😊. So great to know you can heal your brain even after all those years of trauma. Inspiring ♥️🙏🏾♥️. Thanks so much for sharing

[lisaspiteri]

Wow I've been waiting to see this ever since Billy came in thank you for posting. He is truly a miracle story about the power of our brain to overcome. But I hope for Billy that he can get that full healing of his brain from the treatment. Thank you for sharing!!!

Billy I am a big fan especially when you talk about, we can bring the kingdom of Heaven to earth when we all come together & love each other start praying together to raise our frequency & vibration. You know how many times we had saltines and when times were good had butter with saltines. I know & feel your past. I went to work at 13 at wendys to help my mom feed us & pay bills. I was always a nerd at 8-9 id ask for a microscope for christmas when my brothers and sister wanted toys. I one day turned 17 and joined the military before they required the GED. Billy you are one of the smartest people I have watched & listened to. How can you problem solve for all of us on this planet to stop with the petty BS and love one another & pray together to raise the frequency & vibration of our people black, white, brown, red, yellow & planet to bring the kingdom of Heaven to earth? God Bless You Billy.

[Chuckmuch]

People that complain need to watch this and then study Billy’s work and be inspired by his life achievements. Personal Responsibility 💪🏼❤

[DarylMiddleton]

I've never heard of this until now. I feel this modality of care from what I gleamed should be widespread and mainstream.
