Dr. Irena O’Brien and creative wellness coach Lexi Reed explore the power of drawing as a coaching tool. They discuss how drawing engages multiple brain regions, promotes neuroplasticity, functions as active meditation, and helps clients access insights that may be hidden in verbal communication.

In each episode of Neuroscience of Coaching, host Dr. Irena O’Brien explains the science-based insights behind a particular concept and interviews a coach to discuss how these apply in the real world. Just as she does in her professional programs, Irena “un-complicates” neuroscience and teaches practical, evidence-based tools and strategies that listeners can use in their coaching practices.

“Drawing is a way to access flow state and the subconscious.” — Lexi Reid

Guest Bio:

Alexandra (Lexi) Reid is a creative wellness coach and medical device quality and regulatory specialist who helps high-achieving women in STEM use simple, science-informed creative practices to reduce stress and prevent burnout. Drawing on her background in neuroscience-adjacent medical technology, mindfulness, and art therapy-inspired methods, she translates research on stress, attention, and emotional regulation into practical tools her clients can use in real time.

Through her brand, Mind Art Wellness, Lexi leads a 12-week Creative Reset group coaching program, offers 1:1 coaching, and hosts The Creative Shift newsletter, where she shares low-pressure drawing and colour-based exercises that support the nervous system. After nearly seven years working in medical devices, she is especially interested in how creative micro-practices can help analytical, data-driven women reconnect with their bodies, values, and sense of possibility.
