In this episode of to Founders, Future, with host Zach Young, Hannah Conkey — founder and CEO of MindPilot — shares her journey from banking and organizational design into building a neuroscience-led advisory and coaching company. Hannah explains why understanding how the brain and body work matters for leaders, and how her background in people strategy and wellness shaped MindPilot’s mission: to help executives think, feel, and be better by designing brain-smart, biology-aligned ways of working.

Listen for concrete examples of MindPilot’s work — from neuroscience-informed people strategies and neuro-inclusive workplace design to partnering with architects and neurotech providers — and learn how small changes in light, layout, rhythms, and culture can boost focus, creativity, sleep, and overall performance. Hannah also outlines the company’s next steps: scaling neurotech-informed solutions, integrating human-centered strategy with AI and measurement, and helping organizations make wellbeing a measurable part of business impact.
