Alan Wayne Wiederhold
Co-founder | Entrepreneur | Author | Podcast Host |
Alan Wiederhold is the cofounder of Neuma, a neuroscience-driven wellness company created to support brain performance, stress resilience, and purposeful living through innovative cognitive wellness solutions, including its signature Cogni-6™ formulation.
A Navy veteran, entrepreneur, author, podcast host, and endurance athlete, Alan’s journey into neuroscience and human performance was born from personal transformation. After navigating years of high-performance stress, unresolved trauma, burnout, and emotional reinvention, he became deeply committed to understanding the connection between brain health, nervous system regulation, resilience, and human potential.
That pursuit led him into endurance sports, trauma-informed personal development, neuroscience education, and ultimately the creation of Neuma, a brand built around the belief that cognitive performance, emotional resilience, and physical wellbeing are deeply interconnected.
Inspired by both science and lived experience, Alan codeveloped Neuma’s Cogni-6™ proprietary blend as part of a broader mission to help people support focus, calm, recovery, and mental clarity in a world that constantly demands more from the brain.
Today, Alan shares insights on stress, resilience, human optimization, emotional health, and purposeful performance through speaking, podcast conversations, founder-led storytelling, and endurance training.
His message is simple:
Doing hard things changes us.
His mission is to help ambitious people stay sharp, build resilience, and power their purpose.
