What Your Brain is Telling You: Listening, Learning, and Leading Your Cognitive Well-Being with Lisa Feiner In this episode of Body Peace Podcast, hosts Jennie Kramer and Nina Manolson sit down with Lisa Feiner, co-founder of Sharp Again, to explore the evolving relationship we have with our brain health across the life spectrum. Rather than focusing on surface-level wellness checklists, this conversation invites us to gently explore the deeper work of understanding the root causes behind cognitive shifts, memory changes, and how we can care for our minds with curiosity and agency. Key Topics Discussed:Moving beyond fear: Understanding the role of genetics, toxins, and lifestyle factors without falling into pressure or perfectionismThe importance of agency: How having information about our bodies and minds can guide intentional choicesThe interplay between sleep, stress, and cognitive well-beingThe role of social connection and community in supporting brain healthAddressing common misconceptions: Why memory loss is not always an inevitable part of agingPractical steps for listeners: Tuning into personal needs, accessing support, and finding balance in making sustainable choicesThis is not about adding more tasks to your day—it’s about offering knowledge to help us better understand our unique genetic, environmental, and emotional stories. Together, they reflect on the ways lifestyle, environment, and connection influence cognition and discuss the sense of empowerment that grows from knowing ourselves more fully. ⁠Connect with Nina and Jennie⁠Learn more about your ad choices.
