Q&A with Tim — Supplements I’m Taking, Austin vs. SF, Training for Mental Performance, Current Go-To AI Tools, Recovering from Surgery, Intermittent Fasting, and More (#826)
Description
Welcome back to another in-between-isode, with one of my favorite formats: the good old-fashioned Q&A.
I answer questions submitted by the small-but-elite group of test readers of my upcoming THE NO BOOK. The community is closed for new members, as we have the right number of people now, but I hope to potentially expand it, once the book comes out.
See below for show notes, links to everything discussed, and more!
