Brain Positive Leader · Top performance without risking health, relations or wellbeing.
Thank you!

You know the Sunday evening feeling.

Tomorrow the week starts again. The meetings, the decisions, the pressure you carry for the team and for yourself. Most weeks you push harder and hope it holds.

There is a better way, and it starts with understanding what your brain actually needs to perform.

Every Sunday I send you one short letter that gives you exactly that.

Write your awesome label here.

Join thousands of people and get the science to perform under pressure. 

THIS IS FOR YOU IF...

You recognise at least one of these

You read the same email three times and still can't remember what it said.

You lead a team under pressure and you can feel the edge slipping.

You know what you should do differently. You just never get to it.

You end the week running on empty and call it normal.

Thank you!

Be the one who cares about the brain

WHAT LANDS IN YOUR INBOX

  • Three insights. Two questions. One task. Every Sunday.

  • One short letter built on brain science. Each part gives you a name for what is happening,
    why it happens, and one thing to do about it.


3 INSIGHTS

Three counterintuitive ideas from neuroscience, written for your real week. Not theory. The kind of thing you notice in your next meeting.


2 QUESTIONS

Two questions that make you stop and look at how you actually lead, and what your brain is actually doing.



1 TASK

One small action you can take this week. Concrete, doable, and built to change something real.


THE RESULT

Five minutes of reading. One small shift you can actually make. That is the whole point. Knowing what to do was never the hard part. Doing it is. This letter closes that gap, one Sunday at a time.

Thank you!

I will be with you...

I am Maria Engström Eriksson. For over 20 years I have helped ambitious leaders reach their goals - and their team's goals - without risking health, relationships or wellbeing.

I have seen how many leaders, just like you, struggle under pressure and keep themselves and their teams efficient.

My passion is making complex brain research practical and usable in everyday leadership. Not models that sound good but ones that actually work.

Every Sunday I give you what the brain actually needs, in plain language you can use the next morning.

FROM PEOPLE WHO READ IT

It makes a difference for real

I jumped on your course in the spring and have followed your weekly tips by email ever since. It has made a real difference, both privately and in how I perform at work.
MAGNUS BJÖRCK, SVOA
I thought rest was a luxury I couldn't afford. Maria showed me it was the opposite. It is what lets me perform
BIRGITTA RINGSJÖ, ZEDERO
I finally understand what happens in my brain under stress, and what it needs so I can actually focus on what matters."
