  • AI, Mental Health & The Future of Funding: How SYNDKIT Is Disrupting Startups | Anthony Armand Placet
    2026/04/18

    What if the future of mental health, entrepreneurship, and AI wasn’t just evolving… but being completely rebuilt?

    In this powerful episode of the HINESIGHTS Podcast, I sit down with visionary founder, technologist, and creative force Anthony Armand Placet, the mind behind SYNDKIT (S.Y.N.D.K.I.T.), a groundbreaking platform revolutionizing how founders connect with investors, raise capital, and build companies in the age of AI.

    This is not just a conversation.
    This is a blueprint for the future.

    Anthony breaks down how AI-powered tools are eliminating barriers to entry, how anyone can now build, fund, and scale ideas faster than ever, and why purpose-driven entrepreneurship is one of the most powerful tools for mental health and human connection.

    We go deep into:

    🔥 The future of AI startups, fundraising, and innovation
    🔥 How SYNDKIT is matching founders with the right investors instantly
    🔥 Why mental health and purpose are the foundation of success
    🔥 Building with an “army of AI” as a solo founder
    🔥 The truth about entrepreneurship: rejection, resilience, and breakthrough
    🔥 How technology can either isolate us… or bring us together

    Anthony’s message is clear
    👉 The tools are here
    👉 The barriers are gone
    👉 The only thing left… is action

    If you are a founder, creator, investor, or someone searching for purpose, this episode will challenge you, inspire you, and push you to build what you once thought was impossible.

    Raise Frequency Change Your Life | Science of Energy & nWellness w/Barb & Chance Pitcock | EP 171

    HINESIGHTS Podcast Episode 171

    What if the way you feel every day is connected to the frequency your body operates on?

    In Episode 171 of the HINESIGHTS Podcast, global mental health advocate and suicide prevention speaker Kevin Hines sits down with Barb and Chance Pitcock, founders of Frequense, a wellness company built on the belief that the human body functions as an energetic system.

    Every cell in the body communicates through signals, rhythm, and frequency. When that system is supported, we experience clearer thinking, stronger energy, emotional balance, and deeper wellbeing. When it becomes disrupted through stress, poor nutrition, or overwhelm, many of us feel mentally foggy, physically exhausted, and emotionally drained.

    Barb and Chance created Frequense to help people restore harmony between mind, body, and daily living through intentional wellness products designed to support mental clarity, energy, focus, rest, and recovery.


    In this powerful conversation we explore

    • The meaning of human frequency and why it matters for health
    • How stress and modern life disrupt our internal balance
    • The role of nutrition, minerals, mushrooms, and collagen in supporting the body
    • Why intentional wellness practices matter more than quick fixes
    • The emotional journey of building a mission driven company
    • How caring for our bodies and minds can change the trajectory of our lives


    This episode is a conversation about science, wellness, resilience, and hope.


    It is about listening to your body.


    It is about restoring balance.


    It is about living at a frequency that allows you to thrive.


    Thank you to Barb and Chance Pitcock for sponsoring this episode of the HINESIGHTS Podcast and for the work they are doing to help people reconnect with their health and wellbeing.

  • Why Psychiatry is Failing Us and How AI Could Save Lives
    2026/02/17

    In this powerful and deeply personal episode of the Hinesights Podcast, Kevin Hines sits down with Mariam Khayretdinova, a Harvard alumna, neuroscientist, TEDx speaker, and CEO of Brainify.ai, to explore the future of mental health, suicide prevention, and artificial intelligence.

    Mariam shares her lived experience with depression and suicidal thoughts beginning at just six years old, growing up in post-Soviet Russia where mental health was heavily stigmatized. Today, she is on a mission to change psychiatry from the inside out by building one of the world’s most ambitious brain data platforms.

    • Why is psychiatry still based largely on symptoms and trial-and-error treatment?
    • Why can’t we scan the brain to diagnose depression the way we diagnose cancer or heart disease?
    • What role can AI and EEG brain data play in developing precision mental health care?

    Together, Kevin and Mariam unpack:

    • The reality of suicidal ideation and how isolation increases risk
    • The importance of “safety measures” and connection during mental health crises
    • Why psychiatry is one of medicine’s most data-starved fields
    • How artificial intelligence could transform depression treatment and drug development
    • The myths we believe about the brain
    • The urgent need to treat mental health as brain health

    This episode bridges science and humanity, translating pain into data, suffering into signal, and despair into something we can better understand and respond to with compassion and precision.

    If you care about mental health innovation, suicide prevention, neuroscience, or the future of AI in medicine, this conversation is essential listening.

    If you or someone you know is struggling, you are not alone. In the U.S., call or text 988 for the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline. For international resources, please contact your local crisis services.
