Integrative Therapeutics’ Post

I love team-building days. Some people find these sessions a waste of time because they take the team away from the ‘real work’. For me, when run well they provide alignment and clarity a team needs to get the best ‘real work’ done. Team-building days are a great opportunity: -to reassess and confirm the goals of your team -to align your activities with your values -to understand your teammates’ motivations more clearly, so we can all move forward to achieve our goals Creating a great working culture and aligning values only comes when you take the time to discuss these things as a team. Our culture is so important to the team at Certa Therapeutics, and as we grow we want to implement actions to maintain it. It is a key part of our success in designing new medicines for patients with fibrotic disease. I’m so grateful to be part of a team that loves open discussion and to be led by people like Ann Hamer and Darren Kelly who understand the value of investing in people and culture. Getting us out of the office, and choosing to host the discussions in a venue named after The Espy's ghostly entrepreneur resident was an inspired choice! Our session was brilliantly led by Melanie Haydon from deliberatepractice. I'm looking forward to the next session #teambuilding #values #culture #biotech

"𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘀𝗼 𝘂𝗻𝗶𝗾𝘂𝗲?" they ask, as I venture into the bustling world of beauty/skincare/derma with big pharmaceutical giants towering around me. "She's only a #biochemist," and a "PhD" they say, doubting my uniqueness as a founder. But let me tell you a secret 🤐! Being a #founder is not just about fitting into a predefined mould. It's about taking that daring leap, embracing uncertainty, and having the audacity to dream beyond the ordinary 🔮! At Gran Lab, our journey is not just about another business venture; it's about making a difference in the lives of those we touch. We've carefully crafted a value proposition that stands tall amidst the noise, backed by successful clinical trials, a testament to our unwavering commitment to excellence. Yet, the true magic lies in how we connect with our #customers—treating each test study subject as a potential lifelong friend and cherished customer 🤎 One of the biggest testaments to that is Maria, my first white pilot test study subject, turned friend for life and customer till death does us part! (lol no pun intended) I have learned that behind every transaction, there's a heart, a soul, and a story waiting to be heard ♥️ Cheers to a lifetime of Gran Lab today and beyond! This is to #psoriasisactionmonth 💪🏾 (PS: Last one & half week has been absolutely mental averaging 3/4 h a day sleep! No way I endorse this but if you are a submitting a thesis you will relate!! Will get back to all the emails, messages now). #psoriasisactionmonth #founderjourney #support

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐔𝐧𝐬𝐩𝐨𝐤𝐞𝐧 𝐒𝐞𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐁𝐥𝐚𝐳𝐫 𝐔𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐬: 𝐀𝐫𝐞 𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐀𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐈𝐭? As the world whirls with the relentless buzz of life, there's a secret that many have uncovered—the gentle embrace of cannabis 🌿 It's not just about the alluring trails of smoke or the whimsical aura that seems to envelop those who partake. It's about something deeper, something that resonates with the soul of humanity. Picture this: the legendary Willie Nelson, a name that sparks a symphony of vibes and contemplation 🎶 He once famously declared, "The biggest killer on the planet is stress, and I still think the best medicine is and always has been cannabis." In those words, we glimpse the core of why countless individuals are drawn to the herb. In the hazy swirls of cannabis, there's a tranquil refuge, an antidote to modern malaise. It's not just about unwinding but about tapping into a state of mind where stress ebbs away like a distant tide 🌊 The gentle roll of a joint, the crackling sound of a lighter—it's the ritual, the connection to something beyond the hustle. But why? Why do we find solace in cannabis's verdant embrace? Is it the serene caress it lends to our senses? Is it the quiet reminder that life deserves to be lived, savored, and celebrated? Or perhaps it's the unspoken camaraderie shared among those who gather, where laughter flows as freely as the fragrant smoke. Sure, the societal shift toward accepting cannabis is undeniable, yet it's not just about following trends. It's about recognizing that amidst the cacophony of responsibilities, there's a yearning for a moment, a pause—an opportunity to simply be. So, let's peel back the layers, explore the allure that has captivated generations, and unravel the intrinsic connection between cannabis and our pursuit of peace.🕊️ Let's all try to delve into why people seek solace in the fragrant trails of green, and why, in a world that seldom slows down, we find solace in something as simple as a moment of inhale, exhale. #CannabisWisdom #SoulfulIndulgence #UnwindYourMind #ModernMedicine #BlazrSpotlight

Once in a while, a product hits the market that forces us to question what we once thought to be true. And if the founders and their teams are doing it right, then they'll take consumers on a journey of discovery, leading to many "aha" moments along the way. For many, when they hear "endocannabinoid system", they immediately think about cannabis - weed, marijuana, Mary Jane, grass - whatever you choose to refer to it as. But let me ask you this: How much do you actually know about your endocannabinoid system (ECS) and how it functions to keep your body in homeostasis - a balance in internal environment, regulating temperature, mood, and your immune system? Now imagine creating a product that activates the ECS so effectively, but is not derived from cannabis but from an amazing compound called beta-caryophyllene - which can be found in cloves and other sources? As part of MADHUB INC's Founder Story Series, celebrating Canadian women entrepreneurs, I sat down with Sonia Kalra, founder and CEO of naturemary to hear her story, and more importantly, her "why". What's more amazing, is that she is building this company with her partner-in-life, Kapil Kalra. Talk about a dream team! As a biologist and principal formulator of naturemary's products, she is on a mission to help people navigate their health and wellness journeys, so they can truly be their best selves. And let's be honest, we all need help right now. We have never been more ill, stressed, and dis-eased than we are today. Openly discussing her own struggle with Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD), it's obvious that her mission is personal. And as we head in 2024, with authenticity being more important than ever especially when building a brand, I see some amazing milestones ahead for the Naturemary team. #humanled #consciousleadership #womeninbusiness #canadianmade

With every moment of every day, you choose to vote for or against your brain health. That's because the process of neuroplasticity means your brain is always changing. It is on us to direct the destiny of our future brain. Some of my favorite ways to rewire my brain for health include: -Trying new and challenging brain activities (learning pickleball, playing piano, practicing my public speaking) -Exercise of any sort (I love weight lifting and nature walks) -Working to mitigate stress through 10 minutes of morning mindfulness How are you building a better brain? #neuroplasticity #brainhealth #cognition #mood https://lnkd.in/gxW3fxem

Finding the right fit in the start-up world can daunting - so much needs to fit together perfectly between you and an early stage company: from the skillset you bring, the level of risk you want to take, to the personalities across the table. I am thrilled to announce that I found that fit and have started today as the Chief Operating Officer at People Science! This was a fit for me because: - People Science shares my belief that medicine and health are more than the pills your doctors prescribe you - People Science prioritizes high quality evidence generation - People Science believes that all of us can contribute to better evidence, for own personal behaviors or the products we use - People Science is opening up a new market - a challenge I thrive on - And last, but certainly not least, the team at People Science care about the culture they are creating for their employees and know we are all more than the work we produce Thank you Belinda Tan MD PhD and Noah Craft for allowing me to build this company with you!
