Listen "You Invest in What You Value: Save the Manatees"
Episode Synopsis
In this unforgettable episode of The 3 Parallels Podcast, Dr. Jason Branch doesn’t just talk transformation, he embodies it. Through a bold and creative moment of self-reflection, Dr. Branch steps fully into the framework of the Three Parallels by becoming all three versions of himself: past, present, and future. What unfolds is a robust, unscripted conversation across time—his future self speaking life, clarity, and truth to his younger self, while his present self connects the dots in real time. This episode is layered, alive, and deeply human. Dr. Branch weaves his recent ADHD diagnosis into the mix, unpacking what it means to unlearn survival, embrace neurodivergence, and practice radical authenticity. He explores the beliefs we inherit, the stories we carry, and the moment we decide to choose ourselves. Dr. Branch flips the script entirely, stepping into a parallel universe where society mourns a manatee more than a man. Through sharp insight and creative storytelling, he dissects how wealth, privilege, and distorted beliefs shape what (and who) we value. It’s not just thought-provoking, it’s a wake-up call. He paints the picture, challenges the norms, and lets the uncomfortable questions do what they do best: spark reflection and conversation. This isn’t about shock value. It’s about real value, human value.If you’ve ever felt torn between who you’ve been, who you are, and who you’re becoming, this is the blueprint and the permission slip. From vulnerable storytelling to soulful strategy, this episode is part performance, part therapy, and fully transformative. You won’t just listen. You’ll feel it. So bring your journal, bring your questions, and bring your whole self. Let’s get free—past, present, and future. Grab a friend and bring them in. 🎯 3 Challenges Here are 3 life work challenges for the audience based on this episode:Identify One Limiting BeliefWrite down one belief about yourself that you’ve carried for years—something that feels like truth but might actually be a story you inherited.
