Every episode Dr Irena posts is interesting relevant and well designed. She is an exceptional host and demonstrates tremendous knowledge mixed with vulnerability that makes this podcast so approachable and engaging.
Irena is a great podcast host and asked thoughtful, deep questions and added her insightful neuroscience perspective, I really enjoyed being a guest on her show
Irena knows her stuff, which makes got in depth discussions that get to the heart of why people aren’t happy or productive, and then into practical changes they can make.
I found the combination of empathetic encouragement and tough questions brings out the best in her guests and results in science-based tool and suggestions.
Listening to Irena here, then taking her program, changed me and my coaching impact. Working with the brain natural processes, and not against it, is being transformational to my clients and my business.
Dr Irena O’Brien has such amazing insight and a wealth of knowledge in Neuroscience and makes such a complex area so easy to understand. I highly recommend listening to her podcast !!

Experts and practitioners across coaching, neuroscience, leadership, and wellbeing join for practical, neuroscience-backed coaching insights. Episodes typically explore how brain and nervous-system processes shape behaviors, leadership, and performance, then translate concepts into hands-on tools such as breathwork, somatic practices, and cognitive reframes. A standout pattern is pairing rigorous science with real-world coaching applications, with recurring topics including nervous-system regulation, trauma-informed approaches, leadership development, and innovative coaching modalities like equine coaching or visualization. Listeners are likely drawn to evidence-based strategies that can be directly implemented in client work, team developm... more
