Dr. Daniel L. Stickler is the Co-Founder and Chief Medical Officer of The Apeiron Center for Human Potential and Chief Science Officer for Apeiron Academy. He is the visionary pioneer behind systems-based precision lifestyle medicine, a new paradigm that re-defines medicine from the old symptoms based disease model to one of limitless peak performance in all aspects of life. A physician to high-performing executives and entrepreneurs who want to upgrade their current state, he’s also an author, speaker, blogger and podcaster. He is the Medical Director for the Neurohacker Collective, a Google consultant for wearable technology, epigenetics, and AI in healthcare and a guest lecturer at Stanford University on Epigenetics in Clinical Practice.

He discovered that lifestyle was the key to creating an optimized life and his journey to find the ideal approach to optimizing human potential took him on a path through functional medicine, alternative care, holistic, naturopathic, and age-management medicine. Each modality fell short of the outcome of creating a truly optimized human mainly because they focused on the disease model of treating symptoms as opposed to a model that focuses on human systems, homeostatic balance and optimization. In 2008, a new world opened through the lens of genetics and epigenetics and his near obsession like fascination of the potentials for personalized human systems design led to the realization that we truly have the ability within us to take charge of our destiny and become the architects of our evolution.

I don’t know about you, but I have entered this year with a clear-cut intention to keep my mind, and my brain, in optimum condition. I figured an uptick in collective brain functionality is something we’re all in dire need of right now, which is why I invited Dr. Dan Stickler to join the show. As medical director for the Nuerohacker collective and co-founder of The Apeiron Center for Human Potential, he’s easily one of my brainiest neighbors here in Austin, TX. 

Join us as we go full-throttle on the cutting-edge ammunition you need to supercharge your brain and feel fully sovereign in your meat suit. We talk about how ketamine is transforming the realm of neurofeedback, the nootropic wonders of Qualia, all things peptides, and the legitimacy of microdosing. You’ll learn about every physical modality that can boost your bandwidth. Buckle up!
