Our most downloaded episode of 2026 in case you missed it! Mind-shifting expert Mitch Weisburgh discusses how scripts and stories shape our mindset, and how metacognition can lead to meaningful change. Includes practical tools for coaches to help clients shift limiting narratives into new habits.
In each episode of Neuroscience of Coaching, host Dr. Irena O’Brien explains the science-based insights behind a particular concept and interviews a coach to discuss how these apply in the real world. Just as she does in her professional programs, Irena “un-complicates” neuroscience and teaches practical, evidence-based tools and strategies that listeners can use in their coaching practices.
Guest Bio:
Mitch Weisburgh is an educator, author, and speaker who has spent decades helping people unlock their potential. After witnessing how individuals often get stuck in limiting mindsets—whether in education, leadership, or personal life—he developed a practice called MindShifting.
Drawing from cognitive science, lived experience, and real-world application, Mitch’s MindShifting framework teaches people to reframe their thinking, confront unproductive narratives, and replace them with clarity and action. Today, through books, speaking engagements, and online learning, Mitch helps others shift their thinking—and their lives.
