The same dopamine system that pushed our ancestors across oceans and built empires now keeps millions compulsively scrolling at 2am.

It's the same wiring. Pointed in the wrong direction.

This workshop is about understanding that system through neuroscience, history, and cultural analysis. Because the same wiring destroying your attention built every empire, every masterpiece, every breakthrough in human history.

And when you learn to harness it, that same drive becomes the most powerful force in your life, finally pointed at something worth building.

I drank heavily for fifteen years. Smoked. Battled lust. Still fight the pull of the scroll. I was always distracting myself from a life I didn't feel measured up.

But I was never just running away. I was always running toward something.

I moved to China. Taught myself photography and built a travel brand to 10k followers. Wrote a book. Moved to Vietnam. Taught myself swing trading, made money in crypto, used it to build a cocktail bar. Sold that. Moved to the Middle East.

Always seeking. Always hungry. Always onto the next.

Then I sat down to write the book I'd had in my mind since I was twenty-five — about dopamine, about what it does to our brains, our decisions, our lives. And for the first time in years, the addictions just fell away. I wasn't white-knuckling through fasts or month-long breaks. I just wasn't interested anymore. I was finally living aligned with something that mattered.

What I found in the research stopped me cold. The same neurological profile that makes someone restless, novelty-seeking, hungry for adventure and meaning is the exact same profile most susceptible to addiction. The explorers and the addicts are wired the same way.

It's the same drive. Pointed in the wrong direction.
