In one of our most interesting episodes yet, we get the chance to talk to Dr. Charles Raison, a human ecology and psychiatry professor at the University Wisconsin Madison and Emory University. From working with Buddhist monks (including the Dalai Lama) to research on gut bacteria's effects on mental health and the healing properties of psychedelics, Dr. Raison has some incredibly interesting insight to share. 

Entrepreneurs share many of the same personality traits - great ones like determination & grit; and some not-so-great ones like ADD and depression or anxiety. So knowing that, is there something we can focus on to help with those less desirable traits, and improve both our physical and mental health? As it turns out, the answer might be a resounding YES! This week, we're joined by Jennifer Strother, a certified functional nutrition specialist, who talks all about mental and physical wellness, and how they're so intertwined. 

When we take on the role of entrepreneur, CEO, founder, we're often taking on the identity of the company and conflating it with our own self-worth. This episode is all about giving yourself some grace, being compassionate with yourself, and taking what YOU need to be happy and whole. Because after all, if you're not whole, your business can't be either! Special thanks to our guest, Jake Rothschild, founder of some of the most delicious ice cream in all the land - Jake's Ice Cream!
