But how do you actually rewire your brain? Dr Tara Swart is a neuroscientist, coach and writer who specialises in neuroplasticity and is the Chief Science Officer at braincare company Heights. In the conversation, we start off by talking about Tara’s journey through medicine to becoming a coach working at the intersection between neuroscience and business, before diving into how neuroplasticity works and the practical things we can learn from worlds of neuroscience, nutrition and braincare, to actively change our behaviour and improve our brain’s performance.
