Your beautiful brain: Optimising Brain Health for Success with Portia Asli
Our brains are the most exquisite organs, full of thoughts, imagination, feelings, driving how we live our lives, grow our businesses, contribute to the world. In the right environment they are plump and full, firing on all cylinders and sparking clever new cells with every new habit formed or good night’s sleep had or healthy nutritious diet maintained.
Even a certain amount of stress works it like a muscle (metaphorically). But there is a tipping point passed which we push it over into burn out and breakdown. Too much pressure, too many late nights, working too hard, too many toxins, too few nutrients and our brains start to fry.
But there is a way to optimize your brain, stretching it to maximise its potential whilst looking after its needs. My guest on Brave New Girl podcast this week is Portia Asli, founder of Optimyzed Brain that helps you to do just that.

NURTURE YOUR BRAIN
Work smarter not harder, living well in a way that feels important, in an environment that nurtures the nature of our brains.
Portia Asli, is a licensed engineer and founder of Optimyzed Brain. She helps entrepreneurs optimize their brains for high-performance using a science-based method that supports people to prioritize their brain health and empower them with actionable ways to increase their mental performance for success in business.
Founding Optimyzed Brain Portia went from a small offline consulting practice to building and launching a global-based business during the pandemic, helping company leaders optimize their brain health for peak mental performance, engineering a step-by-step science-based system that improves sleep, energy levels, concentration, focus, and mental clarity, less work hours and more more quality time.
Portia emigrated at the age of 10 with her family from Iran to Canada. Hard-working immigrant parents role modelled strong work ethics in her but also being a woman immigrant in North America provided the freedom that didn't exist in Iran and this was the motivation to seize the opportunity to travel, explore and discover how she could create a positive global impact
She went to a top University and worked hard but burn out and depression during her rigorous engineering studies began a 15-year journey of studying how our lifestyle and behaviour impacts our brain performance.
Now she helps driven senior leaders to achieve great heights by helping them optimize their brains for peak mental performance through science-based micro behavioural and lifestyle improvements.
When striving for success, brain health & mental performance can take the back seat. This can show up as stress, anxiety, overwhelm, brain fog, exhaustion, imposter syndrome, insomnia, procrastination, and low self-confidence. She is helping senior leaders improve their sleep, and nutrition, reduce stress and anxiety, enhance mental clarity and focus in less than five weeks.
Thanks Portia for sharing how you have developed ways to help people to optimise their own natural abilities so that they can be their most effective, productive and happy. And also for showing us that we can find ways to optimise our brain so we aren’t running on empty but instead, living and working in a balanced and fruitful way.
