    Introducing A Neuroscientist Told Me Why I Can't Grow My Business (It Made So Much Sense) (Part 1/2) from Millionaire University. Follow the show: Millionaire University #846 What if the voice in your head telling you not to sell, not to post that video, or not to take that leap isn't weakness — it's just your brain doing exactly what it was designed to do? In Part 1 of this two-part conversation, host Tara Williams sits down with neuroscience and brain health expert Dr. Irena O'Brien to explore how the brain impacts entrepreneurial growth and decision-making. They dive into why the brain resists change and new challenges, the neuroscience behind the fear of selling and putting yourself out there, and why taking small, consistent steps is the key to rewiring your predictive brain. Tara and Dr. Irena also discuss the role of nervous system regulation in building willpower and resilience, and practical strategies — from breathwork and music to diet, exercise, and sleep — that entrepreneurs can use to boost energy, reduce mental resistance, and get into a state of flow! What we discuss with Dr. Irena: + Why the brain resists change + The science behind fear of selling + How childhood experiences shape your brain + Small steps vs. big leaps + The brain as a prediction machine + Nervous system regulation and willpower + Decision fatigue and time of day + Diet, exercise, and sleep for brain health + Breathwork and heart rate variability + How to get into a flow state Thank you, Dr. Irena!
