Cognitive Health for Entrepreneurs with Natalie Mackenzie

In this episode, I’m joined by cognitive strategist Natalie Mackenzie to talk about something we often overlook in business: cognitive health and how your brain influences the way you work every single day.

Natalie explains what cognitive health actually means in simple, practical terms, and how things like memory, attention and focus affect your productivity, energy and decision making. We also talk about how modern life impacts your ability to concentrate, why some tasks feel harder than others, and how becoming more aware of your own thinking patterns can completely change the way you run your business.

If you have ever felt foggy, overwhelmed, distracted or mentally tired, this conversation will really help you understand what might be going on and how you can support your brain long term. Natalie also shares simple strategies to protect cognitive health for entrepreneurs so that you can work in a way that feels more sustainable and enjoyable.
