| 0:00.0 | Welcome back or welcome to the Finding Mastery Podcast. I'm Michael Jervay. And the idea behind these conversations |
| 0:15.1 | is to learn from people who are on the path of mastery. And one of the things that we take a |
| 0:19.2 | look at is their psychological framework, their unique journey that has led them to understand. their is so that we can almost use this conversation as an acid test about our own |
| 0:35.0 | psychological framework and maybe if we hear some things that we've always |
| 0:39.3 | wanted to adopt or always wanted to try to work towards and maybe they can illuminate a |

| 1:27.0 | And that's why I'm excited to be partnered with natural stacks. |
| 1:30.0 | They've got a product, they're dopamine brain food supplement that's designed to |
| 1:34.8 | support the body's natural production of dopamine. If you've ever had days where you felt |
| 1:40.1 | tired or stressed or unmotivated, those may be signs of suboptimal or low levels of |
| 1:46.0 | dopamine, among many other potential factors, of course. |
| 1:50.3 | When dopamine is optimized, it's been linked to enhanced mood and motivation, focus, attention, |
| 1:55.8 | mental clarity, learning. Without getting too into the weeds here, natural stacks dopamine |
