A neuroscientist's guide to Relaiming your Brain

Your brain is wired to repeat the familiar. Change this wiring, and it will change your life.

Nicole Vignola, a neuroscientist and organizational psychologist, explains how deeply rooted beliefs can limit our potential and keep us trapped in patterns of thought. These perceptions, often shaped by our upbringing and environment, aren't necessarily our own,but they can be changed.


Nicole shares how the brain's natural biases, such as negativity bias and confirmation bias, reinforce these limiting beliefs. However, with the right approach, it's possible to reshape our mental patterns.
