Let’s talk about dopamin!
Wikipedia says:
“Dopamine (DA, a contraction of 3,4-dihydroxyphenethylamine) is a neuromodulatory molecule that plays several important roles in cells. It is an organic chemical of the catecholamine and phenethylamine families.”
AND VERY IMPORTANT:

Having a positive impact on people's lives is incredible. It’s so heartwarming to hear the emotional feedback from participants of Actio livecasts. Our community is changing lives!
You should try it. Become a supporter! We all have different skill sets and can help others with something, maybe how to prevent a burnout – you awesome and successful workaholic!
We all can support one another.
Like with all other dopamine sources – the first time is very exciting and you’ll be probably a bit nervous. But instead of some other sources – it’s always worth it and no need to be concerned about addiction.
See you in a livecast!
Best,
