“Your intention is your superpower. It’s the energy that turns thought into performance, belief into action.” — Dr. Toper Taylor

In this groundbreaking episode of the Turmeric & Tequila® podcast, host Kristen Olson sits down with Dr. Toper Taylor—Emmy-winning producer, entrepreneur, intention researcher, and former Hollywood executive—to explore the intersection of human performance, quantum physics, and personal transformation.

Dr. Toper shares insights from his pioneering dissertation, “The Human Performance Intention Experiment,” which scientifically demonstrated how positive intention can enhance athletic performance. From producing over 15,000 TV episodes to exploring subtle energy sciences and now serving in politics, Toper’s journey is a powerful reminder that authenticity, intention, and interconnectedness are key to both personal and collective success.

Tune in to hear:

  • How thoughts can influence real-world outcomes (yes, even swim times!)
  • The measurable power of intention and belief
  • What Hollywood taught him about human connection and authenticity
  • Why we need more empathy, energy awareness, and collaboration
  • How to apply intention in your everyday life

Whether you're an athlete, creative, leader, or lifelong learner, this episode will expand your mind and inspire your heart.

Dr. Toper Taylor is a successful entrepreneur, strategist, curiositist, Emmy award winning producer, Doctor of Policy, Planning and Development, expert of intention and subtle energetic sciences, and a recently elected city councilman.

In his landmark dissertation, the Human Performance Intention Experiment, Dr. Taylor showed that sending positive intentions using a quantum field framework improved athletic performance for an NCAA Division I swim team. There may be other exciting applications of intention, such as business innovation and health improvement.

Dr. Taylor is an expert in media, entertainment, and consumer products. He is a pioneer of family and kids educational entertainment, having produced over 15,000 episodes of television and won awards for his work with authors Marc Brown, Maurice Sendak, Tim Burton, and William Joyce. The three companies Taylor ran, Nelvana Ltd., Cookie Jar Entertainment, and Network of One (renamed Spotter), have all exceeded $1 billion in valuation at one point in their life cycle. He is an expert in strategy, operational execution, innovation, scaling businesses, and raising capital.

Dr. Taylor has three degrees from the University of Southern California: BA in Communications, Master of Healthcare Administration, and Doctor of Policy, Planning, and Development. He serves on the board of councilors for the USC Roski School of Fine Arts & Design, the USC Cinematic Arts alumni association, and is the recipient of the USC President’s Volunteer Award.

This November 5, Taylor became an elected member of the city council of Indian Wells, California.
