The Depleted Brain: Building Brain Capital® for Leadership and Life with Dr. Leigh Richardson (Episode #167)
In this powerful episode of Vision Beyond Sight, Dr. Lynn Hellerstein talks with Dr. Leigh Richardson, brain performance strategist, Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor, and founder of Brain Performance Center, to talk about her upcoming new book, The Depleted Brain, and how leaders and individuals can invest in brain health and build Brain Capital®. Your brain is your greatest competitive advantage — and your most overlooked asset. High performance isn't about doing more. It's about having more brain to bring to what matters. Recognizing the power of brain health, Leigh emphasizes how a lack of Brain Capital® leads to a Depleted Brain, and a depleted leader depletes the team. Leigh shares four pillars of brain performance: clarity, adaptability, execution, and resilience. She also highlights how simple habits, including better sleep, a neuroprotective diet, and learning new things, can create neuroplasticity, strengthen brain health and build Brain Capital®.
