Hey Product Hunt! π
I've always been fascinated by the weird ways our brains work. Last year, I decided to go back to uni and study neuroscience part-time while still running my business.
I use what I study at school and my worries and hopes building a business to write 5 weekly articles about neuroscience, productivity, and creativity. Each week, I send a digest as well as some cool stuff I only include in the newsletter, such as fun brain games and hacks to try, as well as thought-provoking articles from around the web. π
Almost 100K people have read these articles in the past few months. My goal is to help people be more productive and more creative without sacrificing their mental well-being. And to create a community of fellow mindful makers who enjoy asking interesting questions along the way!
All the content is backed by research, with links to the corresponding papers if you want to learn more. In the future, I'm planning to offer even more content with ebooks and a mindful productivity app.
I'd love to get any feedback and happy to answer questions. Thank you! π
p.s. Thanks @abadesi for offering me to host an AMA!
Five weekly articles is bonkers productive! How did you build such an awesome habit early on? Any environment changes you made for yourself to make it easier?
@andrewaskins I write for an hour and a half first thing every morning! Trade-off is that I go less often to the gym, but both being me joy so it's fine. :)
I absolutely love receiving this newsletter! It's full of well-researched science-based tips which help me improve my productivity and creativity. I've become a better developer and writer because of Anne-Laure's posts. Can't wait to see what else I can learn about :)
This is a really fascinating and well-thought-out newsletter! Whenever I get one, I always put it straight in the To Read column π€
Congrats on the launch!
Ever since I subscribed to Maker Mind I learned a lot of things that helped me achieve my goals. I just think better. I love the PDFs I can download and share with my family as well. The diagrams allow me to understand things quickly. Thank you!!!
Congrats on launching, Anne-Laure! Maker Mind remains the only newsletter I'm subscribed to, as it provides so much good, relevant content. It's very on-brand for you, and I'm excited to see how you grow this.
The articles are awesome. Reminds me of the neuroscience / entrepreneurship equivalent of Maria Popova.
I don't know how Anne writes so fast so well. Definitely an email to subscribe to. It won't disappoint!
Congrats on your launch! Lovely landing page design and love your dedication in writing the newsletter. Thanks for providing values and sharing knowledge π€π
Love this Anne-Laure!!
Itβs great to see your growth as a maker, doubling down on making things that double down on your interests and skills.
Looking forward to see how this evolves :)
Awesome content. Anne-Laure is a great writer managing to merge concrete research and entertaining ideas to come up with original articles, ON A WEEKLY BASIS. Don't wait anymore to subscribe!
I'm into neuroscience and research myself. Love to see that others know how important it is to always be connected to your brain. Neuroscience and entrepreneurship combined can make you improve significantly!
Btw, weβre launching in late April or the start of May. Check out our upcoming PH page: www.producthunt.com/upcoming/eff...
Our project is called: Effecto. Itβs an app for detailed health tracking. Pretty much for everything that is related to your physical or mental health and every daily factor that can affect you.
Congrats on the launch! Maker Mind is really a great newsletter and Anne's articles are pure gold. There is always really a lot to learn from the articles.
