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 !!
