She wasn't my coach yet during this interview (first time we met). I took this personal challenge on because I knew that if I didn’t do something differently (like work with a No-BS coach who tells it to you straight) then I’d be stuck where I was at…which was overwhelmed and underwhelmed at the same time, stressed and detached, insecure, misunderstood, and lonely. Lauren Handel Zander is the author of Maybe It's You: Cut the Crap, Face Your Fears, Love Your Life. She specializes in waking people up to dream big and start living true to themselves. Lauren co-founded Handel Group, a multi-million executive life coaching business with 60 employees, and her Handel method is taught at MIT, Stanford Graduate School of Business, and NYU. She personally works to transform the lives of CEOs, celebrities, and clients across the country.

We discuss my own ADHD diagnosis, how our brains differ from neurotypical brains, and how fasting helps me with mental energy.

You’ll want to listen to this one no matter who you are because it really is incredible all the benefits we gain from fasting, and the way it improves mental energy is undeniable.
