#209 The Story of Inflow with Founders Seb Issacs and Levi Epstein 🧠
Inflow was born when founders Seb Issacs, Levi Epstein and Dr. Sachs came together on a mission to help every person with ADHD reach their full potential.
ADHD is a neurological difference that usually persists for life. Conservative estimates suggest that it affects 5% of the US population and costs nearly $15,000 per person per year. Inflow was created to offer another way; a sustainable, accessible and cost-effective solution for those who need support. We want to help as many people as possible experience the benefits of CBT, and learn to overcome their day-to-day challenges in a safe and stigma-free environment.
