What happens when you give an overthinking entrepreneur a microphone, a curiosity obsession, and access to the sharpest minds on the planet?
You get MindHack - the podcast for founders, builders, and high-performers who want to upgrade their brain like they upgrade their software.

🎯 Think: startup grit meets cognitive science.
🎙️ Guests include bestselling authors, startup OGs, and unreasonably curious humans.
