Get ready as we take a deeper dive into brain health in the 2nd part of this episode. We’re making brain health sexy as we talk about its crucial role in our journey to becoming our own heroes, and the importance it holds in maintaining our 'badassery'. Buckle up for this ride while we talk about:

Ladies, don’t forget 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.

NICOLA BRAIN QUOTES:

“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.”
