Summary
When Australian-born entrepreneur Louisa Nicola founded her company Neuro Athletics, she dreamed of doing the work she's doing today. Working with top athletes in the MLB, NFL, and NBA as well as finance professionals, her goal is to help those in high-stress roles perform at their best, implementing years of schooling studying the brain. For episode 207, she tells me how she got to this point: From the trip to Los Angeles that turned into a stint in New York, and the kindness from new friends that helped her get established in a new city. She sheds some light on her client process: Which includes everything from brain scans to neurological drills, plus offers up insight on how to stay calm in high-pressure situations, talks about her Neuro Experience podcast, and what she's most excited about in the next few years.
