On the latest episode of In Your Head with Dr. Leigh Richardson, I had the privilege of speaking with Dr. Theo Tsaousides, a renowned rehabilitation neuropsychologist and clinical assistant professor at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. Dr. Tsaousides is the author of Brainblocks: Overcoming the 7 Hidden Barriers to Success, a powerful guide to identifying and tackling the obstacles that hinder our decision-making process.

Our conversation explored how emotional regulation and problem-solving intersect with decision-making. Dr. Tsaousides highlighted the seven "brainblocks" that can hold us back:

• Self-Doubt: Undermining trust in our own judgment.
• Procrastination: Overthinking and delaying action.
• Multi-Tasking: Disrupting focus and clarity.
• Rigidity: Imposing unnecessary rules and limiting flexibility.
• Perfectionism: Searching for an unattainable ideal.
• Negativity: Letting pessimism cloud reasoning.
• Impatience: Rushing into decisions without proper consideration.

Dr. Tsaousides shared actionable, brain-based strategies to overcome these barriers, improve focus, and make decisions with greater confidence.
