What if the key to getting more done wasn't more discipline – but better dopamine? In this episode of the Health and Wellness Marketing Show, Uli Iserloh talks with functional medicine pioneer and Perfect Practice founder Sachin Patel about the surprising biology behind productivity and sustained motivation. Based on his book The Motivation Molecule, Sachin reveals how dopamine – the “motivation molecule” – can be harnessed through environment, nutrition, mindset, and community to eliminate procrastination, sharpen focus, and help practitioners take aligned action. If you’ve ever struggled with inconsistency or burnout, this episode will give you a powerful framework for understanding your inner wiring – and how to work with it to unlock high performance.

 

Listen To Learn:
  • Discover why dopamine is critical to initiating action, sustaining focus, and feeling a sense of reward – and how to naturally optimize it.
  • Learn how genomic testing and metabolomics can reveal your dopamine blueprint – and help you personalize your productivity strategy.
  • Understand how past trauma and limiting beliefs (not lack of tools) are often the root cause of inaction – and what to do about it.
  • Find out how social media, community, and environment can either deplete or supercharge your motivation – depending on how you use them.
  • Explore how the Perfect Practice mentorship helps practitioners build systems, community, and mindset to scale impact sustainably.
Quotes to Remember:
  • “Dopamine is what gets us off the couch – it helps us move, focus, and feel rewarded.” (04:39 | Sachin Patel)

  • “You don’t need more information. You need the right environment to activate your brilliance.” (08:55 | Sachin)

  • “Most people don’t have a tool problem – they have a trauma story holding them back.” (15:20 | Sachin)

  • “Community isn’t just about inspiration – it’s about shortening your learning curve.” (23:20 | Sachin)
