Welcome to episode #60 with Josh Ismin! Here are 5 key takeaways that I think you will learn from this episode today:
1. Reflections on growing up in New York and now living in sydney, how the cultures compare and what the US was like in the early 2000’s
2. How Josh figured out what to do in his early career, specifically I asked him reflections about his first 3 years
3. His most painful learning when he started own company in online video: meteoric rise and then industry changed, pivoted from sales led to a tech company, business partner had mental health issues and more
4. How and why Josh and his wife decided to create a new last name when they married?
5. How Josh became an angel investor and recently started Psylo, a biotech company exploring future medication based on the blueprint traditional first gen psychedelic molecules
6. And a bonus, hear Josh educate us about the types of psychedelics and why we as a society may have the wrong thinking on this topic
