The Coconut Matcha Neutropic Latte Is a Great Product

Although I spent years working in and around Hollywood, I don’t have a lot of actors or industry folks on the show. But I am really interested in the physical, mental, and emotional preparation that goes into preparing for these huge projects because, in a lot of ways, that parallels my own work in the wellness and biohacking space.

It’s also not often that you get an actor who wants to geek out about all of these lifestyle and spirit hacks quite as much as our guest today, Carrie-Anne Moss. Her IMDB reads like a short novel, but a lot of us know her best from playing Trinity in The Matrix, a movie that also has a lot of surprising parallels to my work and this show.

Not because I hang out with Keanu Reeves or do mind-bending martial arts, although I do usually wear sunglasses, but because so many of us today are constantly confronted with “red pill moments” — those moments when you realize that the reality you have been accepting as fact is just a facsimile of your perceptions, malleable and impermanent.

It was a surprisingly prescient action flick when it came out in 1999, and Carrie-Anne really helps us explore why those themes are so relevant to the great awakening we can see happening in society today and what we can learn about living from this awareness. 

Listening to that awareness allowed Carrie-Anne to step into her calling to connect with women by creating Annapurna Living, a platform and portal for growth and nourishment, especially for women and mothers who want to find their voice and to step into their grace. If you’ve never heard her talk outside of a role, you might be surprised by how much wisdom she has to share.

And hey, this episode also serves as a great excuse to watch The Matrix again!

CANDOR. Having these long and deep conversations requires an intense amount of focus, and sometimes I try to use coffee to help me stay alert. But sometimes I get a little too hyped — and, honestly, it’s because I’m straight up ODing on caffeine (you can learn more about your relationship with caffeine, you can check out Candor’s Caffeine Type Quiz). So I was stoked to find Candor, who make this delicious Coconut Matcha Nootropic Latte. It still has a little bit of caffeine, but combined with ingredients like green tea l-theanine, which is clinically proven to boost attention and mood when paired with caffeine.
