11 Mar 2022
In this episode, we deconstruct Mike Clare’s peak performance playbook—from his favorite book to the tiny habit that's had the biggest impact on his life. Mike Clare is the Founder and CEO of Mood Health. We cover the pain points of traditional mental health care and how Mood aims to alleviate them. “In some ways, one of the things that's really frustrating is that mental health has kind of become this luxury, where if you have the money, you can get great psychiatric care. If you can't afford that, then the system kind of breaks down and it becomes much more challenging.” – Mike Clare EPISODE GUIDE (LINKS, QUOTES, NOTES, AND BOOKS MENTIONED) https://www.danielscrivner.com/notes/mood-health-mike-clare-20mp-show-notes FULL TEXT TRANSCRIPT https://www.danielscrivner.com/notes/mood-health-mike-clare-20mp-transcript CHAPTERS In this episode, we deconstruct Mike Clare’s peak performance playbook—from his favorite book to the tiny habit that's had the biggest impact on his life.
