What goes on In Your Head when you hear about a Health Coach? Maybe someone who will dictate on your health decisions?

Cognitive decline is NOT inevitable. Isn't that thought freeing? We've seen mentally active people in their 80s or 90s and said, "I want to be like them at that age!" Well, there are things to do and perhaps a lifestyle to change. But instead of succumbing to what you feel is a tremendous effort, maybe all you really need is proper information and a jumping-off point. This week's In Your Head Radio guest is Sarah Lenz Lock, Senior Vice President for Policy & Brain Health at AARP, to talk about staying sharp through the pillars of brain health - social interaction, sleep, proper food, stress management, exercise and mental fitness. She discussed how AARP has free online resources on staying sharp and caregiving to empower everyone to support brain health and help people who have brain injuries and diseases, in order to start your brain health journey now.

Emotions affect our decisions. Sometimes for the better, but there are times when we hold ourselves back from facing the reality of our situation and making the tough choices precisely because of our attachments, biases and fears. This week's guest on In Your Head is Captain L. David Marquet, former submarine commander and bestselling author of Turn The Ship Around!, to talk about about how to make better decisions as a leader by stepping out of yourself and learning to "be someone else, be somewhere else and be sometime else." He also discussed the importance of complementing an objective, outsider's perspective with our internal intuition without the influences of confirmation, recency and optimism biases.
