3 Ideas for Better Habits
The Healing Power of Safe Relationships
Renowned psychiatrist Bessel A. van der Kolk, on healing trauma and restoring the body-mind connection.
“Being able to feel safe with other people is probably the single most important aspect of mental health; safe connections are fundamental to meaningful and satisfying lives.”
How Mindfulness Strengthens Your Body and Mind
Psychologist and emotional intelligence pioneer, Daniel Goleman, on harnessing self-awareness and empathy to thrive in work and life.
“The more everyday mindfulness, the greater the subjective boost in well-being.”
Live As If
Neuroscientist and transformational teacher, Joe Dispenza, on rewiring the brain and creating a new reality through thought and emotion.
“And can you teach your body emotionally what it would feel like to believe in this way . . . to be empowered . . . to be moved by your own greatness . . . to be invincible . . . to have courage . . . to be in love with life . . . to feel unlimited . . . to live as if your prayers are already answered? . . .”
Keep This Stock Ticker on Your Watchlist
They’re a private company, but Pacaso just reserved the Nasdaq ticker “$PCSO.”
No surprise the same firms that backed Uber, eBay, and Venmo already invested in Pacaso. What is unique is Pacaso is giving the same opportunity to everyday investors. And 10,000+ people have already joined them.
Created a former Zillow exec who sold his first venture for $120M, Pacaso brings co-ownership to the $1.3T vacation home industry.
They’ve generated $1B+ worth of luxury home transactions across 2,000+ owners. That’s good for more than $110M in gross profit since inception, including 41% YoY growth last year alone.
And you can join them today for just $2.90/share. But don’t wait too long. Invest in Pacaso before the opportunity ends September 18.
