Stay Calm When Triggered! - Be The CONFIDENT WOMAN Everyone Respects & Admires | Louisa Nicola

Check out my FREE 4-Part Confidence Workshop! - bit.ly/3fZcbO5
Today, we're embracing the power of brain health to make you confident, clear and focused with our phenomenal guest today, Dr. Louisa Nicola, the neurophysiologist and human performance/billionaire brain coach. She is a powerhouse in revealing ways to better care for your brain and boost your performance at every level. This neuroscience expert has an all-access pass into the minds of top-tier athletes in the NBA and NFL.
We’re making brain health sexy and diving into its crucial role in our journey to becoming our own heroes, and the importance it holds in maintaining our 'badassery'.
“Train your brain to have a high-performing life.” -Louisa Nicola
Dr. Nicola reveals why avoiding stress management is destroying your brain health, how to keep your brain safe after 30, the #1 thing you can do to start optimizing your brain today.
Because I want to see you win in all areas of your life, homie, we even went deep on how critical sleep really is, and if you think a glass of wine is helping you sleep better, think again!
Ladies, we have to start having more conversations about brain health. Women are more likely to develop diseases of the brain such as dementia and Alzheimer’s. Though there may be no cure, there are things we can do starting now to start lowering those risks and start caring for our older, more badass selves.
As an extra bonus to keep the conversation going about the importance of women's brain health and useful hacks to help prevent Alzheimer’s, I’ve included a powerful conversation with Dr. Lisa Mosconi. We explore her groundbreaking work, 'The XX Brain,' and learn how to optimize your cognitive function at any age. Make sure you stick around for this empowering discussion!
NICOLA BRAIN QUOTES:
“The quality of your brain will dictate the quality of your life, [...] we need to have a high-performing brain to be able to fight off negative thoughts.”
“People are talking about Alzheimer’s disease as if it is a loss of memory, yes, but it is also a disease that robs you of who you are because you can’t stay present.”
“Lift hard, lift heavy, and do it about 3 to 4 times a week.”
“Exercise for the brain, that’s what’s going to keep it alive and thriving.”
“Put your brain in a safe environment and it will thrive.”
“I treat sleep as if it’s an Olympic game. Treat it as if you need to train for sleep, you need to warm up for sleep and you need to prepare for sleep the moment you wake up.”
“You can make more money with a higher-performing brain.”

WARNING: I will never ask for your contact info in the comments section, that is someone impersonating me!

[@TammyReneeCoaching]

When I found out I was being scammed for $90k by a man who claimed to be Kobe & Vanessa Bryant’s Estate Attorney, I went off! I called the cops, they said it was CIVIL, so I kicked them and him out of my house. He’s been living in Vegas the whole time & would claim to be flying in from Dubai. I wish I would’ve handled it differently. I should’ve kept calm to build a bigger case for the Las Vegas Metro PD. I’m vegan so my eating was good, but anyone who was being scammed thinking they’re investing in Aramco stock but it’s going straight into his pockets, would’ve lost their d@mn mind.

I believe the food we eat plays a huge role in our brain development and the way we feel mentally and physically, we need to stay on top of our thoughts 🤔 seriously I understand y she thinks the Brain is dumb we allow thought to flow unmanageable Great educational video ❤❤

[@citygirl713]

There was a study I found.. I wish I remembered it because I even told my mom about it.. food is so important because it even starts at conception and what the mother eats even effects the DNA of the fetus… down to the grandparents.. this isn’t the report, but a quote from another one, “You are what you eat, the saying goes. And, according to two new genetic studies, you are what your mother, father, grandparents and great-grandparents ate, too.” I FOUND IT.. it’s a website called renewingallthings and it’s a study on epigenetics and, “The food you eat changes your genes and affects the next 3 generations after you!”

[@TheHackedLabRat]

​@@citygirl713fascinating. I actually been doing carnivore/keto diet and my mental health issues I couldn't get control of with so many tactics....finally went away changing my food. Now I'm getting off medication and happier than ever. I was a 90s kid who grew up on the worse food you can imagine. I've had nothing but mental health and autoimmune issues like arthritis and fibromyalgia at the age of 12. Now 30 I've never been healthier. Finally have energy to get through the day with no pain.

[@lunaportia989]

@@citygirl713 A healthy diet can influence gene expression, but it does not change the actual DNA sequence within our genes. This field of study is known as epigenetics, which examines how environmental factors, including diet, lifestyle, and stress, can impact the activity of our genes.

[@citygirl713]

@@lunaportia989 that’s what I wrote in my comment.. epigenetics .. if you reread I said epigenetics.. what I wrote in the beginning may be wrong because I didn’t know how to word it but towards the bottom I wrote it’s epigenetics and I quoted two articles.

I wish the discussion included how the effects of childhood trauma fit into brain health as adults

[@poison_plays]

Me too. Especially since the “doctor” claims that people who miss relationship red flags have done so because we have “lazy” brains. Really. I’d be awfully curious to see the citation for that claim, since it’s the polar opposite of what’s said by every reputable and knowledgeable doctor or therapist I’ve listened to in the past year and a half I’ve even trying to understand why I stayed with my abusive ex for a decade and how my childhood trauma puts me at great risk for abuse. Child abuse survivors don’t have “lazy” brains. We have untreated trauma. I too wish this had been addressed.

[@robinlindberg6339]

​@@poison_plays Trauma councilling is a deep rabbit whole. Most therapists (they r rapists.) will "council" their victims by steering them in a particular direction (mind control). This is also done with the aide of SORCERY (PHARMAKEIA, a word from the Bible meaning SORCERY, AND WITCHCRAFT. PHARMAKEIA is exactly what it sounds like = PHARMACY.) This is the workings through spells and SORCERY (PHARMAKEIA) witchcraft. The one true God, Jesus Christ, gave us ALL sound minds and body. Its only when we have allowed ourselves to be subjected to evil spirits (drugs, alcohol, perversions, around others with ill intent, etc) that WE TOO become attached to these spirits, or find ourselves in the castings of spells. God warns us of all of this, and more in the writings of his word, the Holy Bible (KJV). And it is through our own self will (that God gave us), and our gift of discernment that we will come to recognize the wolves in sheep's clothing. This is why it is also, so very important to always be thanking God for his protection, continue to ask for his forgiveness, and to ask him to show us the wisdom in ALL SITUATIONS. ASK, AND YOU WILL RECEIVE. God, our Savior, and his Holy Bible (the word) is THE ONLY GUIDANCE WE WILL EVER NEED! Look to HIM for ALL YOUR ANSWERS and HE WILL ALWAYS PROVIDE. Much Love to you.

Omg! The ball thing! I have NF1 and in December 2022 I was pretty much half paralyzed waist down and my hands were very weak. So while I was recovering at home I would throw a ball against the wall for my dog. And then started teaching myself to juggle with one hand. It has certainly helped! As well as doing PT twice a week. This is a great podcast! 🙏🏼♥️🙏🏼

Got brain damage from quitting psych meds cold turkey. Hope it can be reversed. Am healing from it for over 3 years now and there is progress but maybe 20 to 25% improvement. The quality of your brain is indeed everything. Quality of life, of relationships, it all starts from being and staying well regulated and know exactly what to do (and what not to do...) when dysregulated/triggered. ✌️

I would love to hear more about how cannabis effects sleep as someone who has used it for insomnia on and off for the last 22 years. Myo inositol is the only thing that's come close to helping me sleep like cannabis does. Ashwagandha seems to help at times but not others. Womdering if it has to do with where I'm at in my cycle/hormones.

[@lounyx2902]

Hey, who is the second guest ?

[@utbol2354]

Wait, can you ask her again about creatine? Does it cause kidney problems?

[@serenitygoodwyn]

What she doesn't clarify is whether that is absolute or relative risk. These sort of studies are usually relative risk. That means if 10 out of 50 people would get dementia with a 30% relative risk reduction, 7 out of 50 people would get dementia, that is a 6% absolute risk reduction. Still good but this confusion between relative and absolute risk is a problem in medicine and health because it's the way drug companies can sell us so much medication, as even most doctors (about 75% in studies) don't understand the difference. In medical journals they are allowed to provide the benefits in relative risk and the risk of side effects in absolute risk, which to someone who doesn't fully understand the difference, look like it's really beneficial compared to the risk when it isn't. The 30% reduction in heart attacks from statins is actually less than 1% absolute risk reduction. The 25% of people experiencing side effects is actually a 400% absolute risk increase in absolute terms. so to compare like for like, a 1% reduced risk of heart attack over 10 yrs but a 400% risk of significant side effects, still think it's worth it? Maybe you do, but unless your given the information in a transparent way, how can you make an informed decision. you can't and that's a problem.

Hello such a great podcast ! Thank you so much !

[@meganwildhood3893]

My body translates cold to pain pretty much instantly. I have tried cold plunges so many times because of how amazing everyone says they are for your health and they HURT. The whole time. I don't desensitize/get used to it at all, so I can't continue this. Also, an increase in hypervigilance, which is what I thought I understood cold does, is kind of a disaster for people with anxiety. So cold plunges aren't for everyone.
