January 10, 2022 Small Steps To Big Changes
At age 20, Svetlana Basukinskaya was diagnosed with a brainstem cavernoma. These benign vascular lesions often cause no symptoms, but Sveta's was devastating.

After surviving a six-hour brain surgery, Sveta's real work began. In this episode, we'll learn how Sveta's focus on brain-based drills and neuroscience not only helped her recover, but thrive, as she now helps young athletes with neuro training.

December 16, 2021 Finding Motivation
You might know Tara Lyn Emerson as a popular fitness professional with a huge Instagram following and as a trainer for TRX Training Club, Popsugar Fitness, and more.
What you might not know is that her lifetime focus on fitness and wellness stems both from her athletic childhood and her early diagnosis of a progressive neuromuscular disease.
Far from allowing the disease to dictate her future and what she couldn't do, she chose to use the diagnosis of CMT to create a life focused on what she could do -- building on it every day and helping others discover how strong they can be.
In this episode of At the Core, we dig into tapping the power of motivation, the vital role of nutrition, how mindset affects everything, and more.

October 19, 2021 Eyes: The Window To Your Opportunities
Once a professional Rugby player for Argentina and Italy, Franco Pablo Lococo now teaches the power of training your brain to better process visual information.
Good vision isn't about having 20/20 eyesight, although that's the standard most of us know. What's more important is processing what we see in the most effective, efficient way. For athletes, who make split-second decisions, this could be the difference between winning and losing. For the general population this could mean fall prevention, improved daily living, improved reaction timing, and decreased pain.
As the creator and developer of Elite Vision Sticks™, Franco trains the principles and techniques to exploit all the benefits that the visual system and executive brain function can bring to sports and daily life.
