Optimizing from Within: Mindset, Medicine, and Marketing
Description
In this episode of Founders Future, with host Olivia Sammons, we are joined by Ryan Sprague, the founder of Highly Optimized. Ryan shares his unconventional journey from working in the cannabis industry to becoming a mindset and performance coach after a profound "kundalini awakening" at a Las Vegas convention. He explains how this experience revealed his unconscious limiting beliefs and led him to leverage cannabis as a conscious tool for personal transformation, ultimately inspiring him to create a platform dedicated to helping people optimize their health, mindset, and relationships from the inside out.
Ryan delves into his unique coaching methodology, which combines breathwork, narrative trauma work, and the intentional use of cannabis to help two primary client archetypes: the spiritual seeker struggling with dependency and the high-powered CEO seeking balance and purpose. He also details his innovative "decentralized node network" marketing strategy, which relies on podcast appearances, joint ventures, and gifting his home-cultivated cannabis to build powerful relationships, bypassing the restrictions of traditional social media. Looking ahead, Ryan discusses his vision to expand this collaborative network and his goal of appearing on major platforms like the Joe Rogan Experience to further scale his mission.
