I know I need 8+ hours of sleep. But last night, I was with friends until midnight and had to wake up at 6 am. Luckily, I had learned that high doses of creatine - when sleep-deprived - enters the brain quickly and acutely increases mental energy. So, I got through the day as

Morning: Get sunlight, wait ~90 mins before drinking coffee, and meditate. Daytime: Get sunlight, take strategic breaks. Evening: No phones, screens, news, or movies in the last 60 mins before bed. This is mental energy management 101.

Unknown source of chemical exposure: sportswear. When we sweat and get warm during exercise, our skin becomes more permeable, making it easier for certain chemicals in clothing to be absorbed. Some synthetic fabrics and treatments can contain: *PFAS (“forever chemicals”) –

One place that shocked me was personal care products. I was using body wash in 3-in-1 "super something" shower gel and wore a deodorant with a jacked guy doing the commercials. But that stuff is filled with chemicals that disrupt my endocrine function - amongst other things,

So, I looked more into the reference values and found a surprising trend. Much evidence points to the fact that men's testosterone levels are decreasing. Like for example here, where scientists measured 991 men over 20 years: *Men aged 51-60 in 1982: ~600 ng/dL *Men aged

3/10 founder has not learned how to manage their mental energy - this is what Im here to change
3/10 Founder burnout is no longer anecdotal. Recent surveys show: 1⃣ 50%+ report burnout 2⃣ ~75% report anxiety 3⃣ Nearly half rate their mental health as “bad” or “very bad” 4⃣ Many have considered stepping away This is systemic.

My last surfing trip became a turning point for me. Six weeks in Sri Lanka marked the end of an extremely stressful time in my life. Two and a half years working at an ambitious longevity company while building my own audience (the most anti-longevity period ever). The travel
