"To know thyself is the beginning of wisdom". This is a quote of the Athenian moral philosopher Socrates. I understand knowledge of self as the basis for truly understanding ourselves and a tool and inspiration for self mastery and self growth which can benefit not only the individual, but overall society.
My guest today is an advocate and expert on self knowledge.
Joe Cohen says of himself that he won the lottery of bad genes. From childhood he suffered from diverse types of inflammation, digestive problems, fatigue, depression and anxiety, among many other health challenges which doctors were not able to fix. The lack of help and information inspired Joe to learn everything he could about how to improve his health. On his healing journey he became a bio-hacker and created the ultimate resource for bio-hacking and optimizing the self, his platform SelfHacked. Which led to his next endeavor, the biotech software platform for DNA-based health research, called SelfDecode which uses advanced AI to analyze your genes and helps people to understand and use their personal genetics in order to reach their health goals.
