Yeah. Great. Great question. So I was a driven person and I was just I kept climbing the corporate ladder. And then at one point I end up I was a fifth employee of a company in Austin, Texas, by the name of Sonio Solutions. We were a creative services agency.

We bootstrapped the company, and we said, we're not going out for any funding, and we're going to work with the biggest clients in the world. And at that time, it was IBM, 3M, Dell, Hewlett-Packard. I joined the team, fifth employee of the company, and our goal, being one of Inc. 's 5,000 fastest companies, we did it. And we did it in three years.

And it all sounds great and I had a great life and I had a great car and a boat and a house and threw parties all the time, but inside I was breaking down. And when I went to the doctor, the doctor said, your adrenal glands are shot, your cortisol, stress hormone, cortisol levels are through the roof. And here's the traditional way of dealing with it, which a lot of us know is taking medications.

I didn't want to take medications. I already had a pretty good diet. And I started to just figure out my way. I became a yoga instructor. I became a living food chef. I was a living food raw foodist for five years thinking that was going to fix it. But when I went to IBM's headquarters, I couldn't strike a downward dog or eat an apple and expect my stress to go away.

I had to find something different. That's when I discovered biohacking. And when I discovered biohacking, I went for HRV biohacking because the heart is the master switch inside the body. 90% of the information is sent to the heart, from the heart to the brain, and 10% is sent down through the vagus nerve.

So if your heart is beating like this because you're under pressure all the time, it's sending a signal to the brain that tells the brain, danger, danger, I'm in fight or flight. So you're living in that. And then the prefrontal cortex, which is where we make our decisions, we call this the CEO of the brain, it shuts down. So we can't think as clearly.

Because when you're in stress, it's not a time to solve problems or get creative. Right. And so when I started to learn how to biohack and I could go give big presentations at IBM's headquarters or Dell's headquarters to big vice presidents of the company, if I felt nervous, I could start biohacking, connect on a deeper level.
