Are you struggling with focus and productivity? There may be an alternative to traditional ADHD medications. In this Wellness Revolution podcast episode, I am joined by Dan Freed, the founder of Thesis, to discuss his journey from high school dropout to successful entrepreneur, driven by his quest to find effective solutions for ADHD.

We dive into the science behind nootropics and how they differ from traditional stimulants. We also discuss Thesis' rigorous testing process to ensure product quality and safety and how to find the right nootropic formula for your unique brain chemistry.

Dan Freed founded Thesis, a company dedicated to creating personalized nootropic formulas to help others optimize their cognitive performance. He was expelled from preschool and later dropped out of high school due to struggles with ADHD, to become a successful entrepreneur and cognitive health advocate. After years of working as a chef, including at a Michelin three-star restaurant in France, Dan discovered nootropics while preparing for the GMAT. This discovery led to a dramatic turnaround in his life, enabling him to score in the 99th percentile on the GMAT and subsequently earn Master's degrees from Yale and INSEAD.

Are you struggling to move forward after divorce? In this solo episode of the Wellness Revolution podcast, I dive into this crucial topic for women navigating life after divorce: letting go of the past and embracing new possibilities.

I discuss taking small actions to create momentum for healing and common reasons why women may feel stuck, including the fear of the unknown, attachment to their old identity, guilt, and regret over the past, and fear of judgment and loneliness. I also discuss the importance of self-compassion, self-discovery, and surrounding oneself with a supportive community.
