#17 Mental Health Today With Mike Dannheim

Mike Dannheim is a technology entrepreneur, yoga instructor, and wellness advocate whose aim is to impact human health by bringing together cutting-edge research in mindfulness and neuroscience with the support of technology. His current focus is on helping professionals transform work stress into an asset for growth. As part of the Sensie team, Mike and his colleagues developed a reliable method for bringing awareness to sources of stress by acknowledging muscular tension. After 3 years of development with top researchers in the field, they are now able to share this method through a smartphone application. Recognizing that it takes more than just technology to respond to stress, Mike and his team have developed the Sensie Coaching service as a way to deliver the best evidence-based techniques for responding to stress in addition to providing access to their technology. With over 10 years of experience as part of management teams behind two venture capital-backed businesses and an early career in private equity and investment banking, Mike has seen enough stress to know that we have to change how we respond to stress while at work.
