Here's the #1 coolest thing I heard at a Human Performance Optimization conference last week: "I don't know enough about that, but I know an amazing expert I consult with on it" The greatest teams and leaders aren't afraid to admit what they don't know and ASK others for help!

Excited to share this commentary I recently published in JAND! @eatright 🍎 I summarize my thoughts on why we need more research on the relationship between crime & nutrition. Check it out 👉sciencedirect.com/science/ar… Also, solo writing is real hard. 🙃😂
