HOST: Welcome to our podcast, today I'm thrilled to be joined by Dr. Jane Smith, an expert in brain health and the instructor of the new course "Advanced Certificate in Brain Health for Caregivers." Welcome, Jane! GUEST: Thank you for having me! I'm excited to be here. HOST: To start, could you share a bit about your personal experiences that led you to create this course? GUEST: Of course.

Now, what current trends in brain health are most relevant to this course? GUEST: We're seeing a growing emphasis on personalized care and holistic approaches to mental wellness. This course reflects those trends, teaching caregivers to tailor strategies to individual needs and consider overall emotional well-being. HOST: Absolutely, individualized care is crucial. Now, what challenges have you encountered in developing and teaching this subject matter? GUEST: The biggest challenge is making complex neuroscience concepts accessible and applicable for non-professionals. We've worked hard to present the information in a user-friendly, engaging way.
