Today I chatted with Brian Sachetta. Brian is the author and owner of Get Out of Your Head®, a brand and book series that seeks to help folks overcome anxiety and depression.

world with previous mental health battles to draw parallels between computer
systems and the human mind and give readers practical strategies for evading
their own psychological demons.
Brian currently has two books launched, “Get Out of Your Head: A Toolkit for
