Louisa Nicola is a neurophysiologist, performance specialist, and founder of Neuro Athletics, a company focused on brain optimization and neurophysiology for elite performers. A former professional triathlete, Nicola’s early career in endurance sport shaped her belief that peak performance is driven as much by the brain as by the body. Her transition from elite competition to neuroscience was fueled by a desire to understand the neurological foundations of reaction time, resilience, recovery, and long-term cognitive health.

Through Neuro Athletics, she works with professional athletes, sports organizations, executives, and high performers to implement measurable brain-based training protocols. Her work includes cognitive performance testing, visual processing and reaction training, nervous system regulation, and concussion recovery strategies. Nicola emphasizes objective brain metrics over subjective feedback, bringing scientific rigor to performance optimization.

She is also the host of The Neuro Experience podcast, where she interviews leading neuroscientists, physicians, and longevity experts. A significant focus of her public work centers on Alzheimer’s prevention and cognitive decline. Nicola advocates for early baseline testing, cardiovascular and metabolic health, strength and aerobic training to increase BDNF, sleep optimization, inflammation reduction, and lifelong cognitive engagement. She frequently highlights the disproportionate risk women face in Alzheimer’s disease and calls for greater awareness around hormonal and midlife cognitive vulnerability.

Nicola frames brain health as a lifelong discipline, connecting elite performance principles with long-term cognitive resilience and positioning brain optimization not as a reactive measure, but as a proactive strategy beginning in early adulthood.

Violent rhetoric from celebrities and Democrats helped create the climate reflected in President Donald Trump’s third would-be assassin’s manifesto, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”

Hanson assesses Barack Obama’s response to the most recent assassination attempts, recounts attending the White House Correspondents’ Dinner in 2003, and condemns Jimmy Kimmel’s comments about Melania Trump while defending free-speech rights and consumer boycotts of Disney.

Hanson and co-host Jack Fowler cover James Comey’s second indictment, this time over the “86 47” beach post, and Dr. David Morens’, described as a top Fauci adviser, run-in with the law over alleged concealment and destruction of COVID-origin records.

The conversation also touches on Virginia redistricting, U.S.–UK relations during the King’s visit and Trump’s remarks on shared Anglo-American heritage, and ends with comments from viewers and Hanson’s personal health update.

Why do neocons consistently act against the interests of the United States? It’s more than neglect. It’s hate. Marjorie Taylor Greene saw it firsthand.

Former Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene is a Christian Mother of three Gen Z children, who spent two decades owning and operating a family construction business where she took her successful business experience to congress. Marjorie Taylor Greene proudly served in congress for five years representing Georgia’s 14th district with an America First agenda and a 100% conservative voting record.
