In this episode, Jodi Duval has the honour of speaking with Dr David Rabin, a groundbreaking neuroscientist and psychiatrist whose work is transforming the way we approach stress and emotional health. Dr Rabin shares his inspiring journey and discusses the innovative technologies and research he’s spearheading to address chronic stress and its devastating effects.
Dr Rabin is the co-founder and Chief Innovation Officer of Apollo Neuroscience, the company behind the world’s first scientifically validated wearable device designed to enhance energy, focus, and relaxation. Apollo uses a unique touch therapy to signal safety to the brain, helping to mitigate the damaging effects of stress.
