In episode 5 of our "Unleashing Superpowers" season, we are talking with the inspirational Dr David Hamilton.  David is a speaker and author in the realm of neuroscience, holistic healing, kindness and spirituality.

David is an organic chemist and spent 4 years in the pharmaceutical industry before following his heart to write his first book.  He has since written 10 best-selling books including "The Five Side Effects of Kindness" and "How Your Mind Can Heal Your Body".  David's mission is to use science to inspire and he has opened the worlds of personal growth and the mind-body connection to thousands of people.

What we totally love about David is that he is genuinely inspired by science.  He passionately shares things like why kindness is scientifically good for you.  He is a just a really lovely man, very grounded, humble and extremely human. 

David is a great example of someone following their heart to find their passion.
