Introducing The Brain Aware Podcast: exploring the science of success

Ready to discover what your brain has been trying to tell you about success? Welcome to the Brain Aware podcast, where we decode the neuroscience behind what makes people thrive at work and in leadership. As hosts, we bring unique perspectives – Dr. Britt Andreatta has dedicated her career to unraveling brain science related to change and learning, while Justin Reinert brings over two decades of leadership development expertise. Together, we're bridging the gap between cutting-edge neuroscience and practical workplace application.

Our conversations explore the fascinating territory where brain function meets professional excellence. Each week, we'll examine evidence-based strategies that drive real results for leaders, teams, and individuals looking to maximize their potential. Whether you're navigating organizational change, building more effective teams, or seeking personal growth, you'll find actionable insights grounded in scientific research. We're not afraid to challenge conventional wisdom or outdated models that contradict what science tells us about human behavior.

The inaugural season focuses on the neuroscience of change – exploring why humans are neurologically wired to resist it and how to work with (not against) your brain during transitions. We'll dive into motivation mechanisms, habit formation, fear responses, change fatigue, and the brain's reaction to failure. You'll gain a deeper understanding of why certain approaches work while others fail, and how small adjustments based on brain science can dramatically improve outcomes. Subscribe now for our June 1st premiere and join a community of forward-thinking professionals who understand that when you know how the brain works, you can transform how you lead, learn, and live.
