Every week I will share conversations with humans who’s lives have been transformed by the power of movement on their own mental health, breakdown the latest neuroscience with leading experts, and hopefully inspire you to wake up your inner warrior to fight for the best versions of you every day.

Today’s conversation is an incredible one that is packed with actionable ways to impact your anxiety, mood, and overall mental health. I’m chatting with Dr. Tim Jackson who is going to share his personal story of being diagnosed with Lyme Disease in his 20’s and how that changed his perspective on exercise & movement for health beyond just the aesthetics of the body. He’s also going to share his perspective as a functional medicine practitioner and biohacker in his own life, as well as for the lives of his patients. A functional medicine practitioner is a medical professional who looks to discover & treat the root cause of someone’s symptoms, rather than just treat the symptoms themselves.
Dr. Tim Jackson, DPT, CNS(c) is a functional medicine practitioner and biohacker. He works with individuals who want to perform better in any aspect of their lives by optimizing their physiology and lifestyle habits. He has been featured on The Bulletproof Executive Podcast, Ben Greenfield's Fitness Podcast, in The Huffington Post and on over 7 health summits.
