Gretchen Gagel / Vanessa Bennett Season 1 Episode 137

Everyone needs to listen to this Greatness podcast with Vanessa Bennett, neuroscience expert, coach, and speaker. Why? We have learned more about the brain in the last five years than in the history of humankind and that knowledge is invaluable to us all. Vanessa shares concrete tips about how to "optimize your cognitive energy" in a way that allows you to improve your mental health and your performance, and avoid burnout. Our brains hate ambiguity, and even anticipating a difficult conversation creates stress. It's not enough to learn about our brains. The key is to build new habits that reduce stress and help us lead happier, healthier lives.
