Dr. Donald (DC, MS, CSCS) works with high-output leaders and pros who want steady energy, sound sleep, and clear decision-making under pressure. Trained as a scientist and former decathlete, he runs a diagnostics-first process: measure first (labs, sleep architecture, HRV, cognitive speed, recovery), act second (light and rhythm, training, sleep, nutrition, travel), then track the deltas in plain numbers. He blends East + West methodologies - nature’s tools before prescriptions - and aligns each client’s MD, trainer, and nutrition so the plan runs as one roadmap. His practice is referral-led and confidentiality is standard. Current work includes select 1:1 advisories and a small, invite-only cohort for leaders who want a clear, sustainable system for health and performance.

As a fruit of his labor, CORE Performance Labs is on the way - an evidence-led program built from his vast experience. If you’d like an early look, follow Dr. Donald on LinkedIn to stay in the loop.

After dropping out of university Adam started his first digital marketing business from his mother’s hallway aged just 21 and soon went on to found Captify Technologies, a global marketing technology company. Over 10 years, he scaled it to 300 staff across 13 markets and drove revenues to over $60m per year before successfully exiting the business in July 202

Along the way, the relentless pressure of building a global company began to take a toll on his health — a moment that sparked deep self-reflection. As he explored stress, sleep, and nervous system science, he discovered functional breathwork and realized it could be the key to transforming modern wellbeing.

After studying with breath expert Patrick McKeown, Adam launched FivePointFive with a mission to redefine wellness.
