Key Insights on Mental Health

50 million women have unnecessarily suffered for decades because of one misquoted study - the WHI study that led to the FDA black box warning on hormone therapy

  • The ideal window for hormone therapy is ages 45-55, during late perimenopause to early menopause, for maximum cardiovascular and brain health benefits
  • Jersey's athletic approach focuses on progress and breaking records rather than comfort-based physical therapy
  • Military pilots are pulled from flight duty and given psychological evaluations if they report UFO encounters, creating a culture of silence
  • A Hangzhou court ruled companies cannot legally cite AI as justification for layoffs, providing a swift regulatory calming effect on public anxiety.
  • Depression may be a learned behavior from childhood - hurting yourself through unhappiness to get attention, which becomes an unconscious habit
  • Index fund investing has been 'solved' - the challenge is psychological discipline to avoid checking portfolios and making emotional decisions
  • Harvard research shows founders who start companies within a year of selling usually regret it due to psychological dangers
