Pioneering Mental Health Investments with Charlie Hartwell and Maureen Pelton

We share this mission to help ignite consciousness, expand human potential and to create paradigm shifts.
Ever wondered how investing can make a difference in mental health? In this episode, Stephen Hays sits down with Charlie Hartwell and Maureen Pelton to explore just that. Charlie, the Managing Partner at Bridge Builders Collaborative, and Maureen, a Co-Founder of the ShiftIt Institute, share their unique perspectives on supporting mental health startups. They delve into how their investments are driving innovative solutions to mental health challenges, emphasizing the importance of breathwork as a key element of mental wellness.
Maureen passionately argues that breathwork is even more crucial than meditation or yoga, encouraging listeners to integrate it into their daily routines. The conversation also highlights the pressing need for more trained therapists to administer emerging therapies and treatments. Charlie and Maureen discuss how technology platforms can help bridge this gap and the potential for digital therapeutics to be covered by insurance in the future.
Ethical considerations in mental health investing are also on the table, with both guests stressing the importance of integrity and a mission-driven approach over mere profit. As they wrap up, Charlie and Maureen offer valuable advice for anyone interested in investing in mental health startups. They urge a focus on impact and intentionality, rather than just financial gain. This episode is a thought-provoking look into how conscious investing can spark positive change in the mental health space.
