Hey, I’m Tú Michael 
. I’m a Solorepreneur, YouTuber, and the author of the New York Times bestseller, Feel-Good Productivity
Quick Facts About Me
I studied medicine for 6 years at Cambridge University. I then spent 2 years working full-time as a Junior Doctor in the UK’s National Health Service, including during the COVID-19 pandemic.
I started my YouTube channel in 2017 while I was at university. My early videos were about life as a medical student and how to study more effectively for exams.
My content these days focuses on the books, strategies, ideas and tools that can help us be more productive, live more intentionally, and build a life we love.
I’m the co-founder of Sparkle Studios, where we’re building a suite of delightful productivity apps that help make work a little more efficient and enjoyable. VoicePal is our first app, with more on the way.
In 2023, I published my first book, Feel-Good Productivity, which became an instant New York Times and Sunday Times bestseller. It’s since sold hundreds of thousands of copies and been translated into 35+ languages.
In 2024, I got married and moved from London to Hong Kong, where I now live with my wife 🙂
My Journey from
Doctor to Entrepreneur
My YouTube journey started back in 2017 when I was still a student at Cambridge University. I was studying to become a doctor (the dream was to specialise in Emergency Medicine).
Back then, I started making videos to help other people with studying for and acing their exams. Fast forward a few years and the videos I was creating started to be geared more towards productivity and passing on the knowledge that got me through medical school.
While working full-time as a junior doctor, I’d spend most of my evenings, weekends and days off working on videos, writing scripts and researching ideas.
Since then, the business has grown to over 20 employees. We’re a multimillion dollar company, specialising in creating (hopefully) excellent educational content, life-changing courses and building our own suite of productivity apps.
None of this would’ve been possible without the lovely people from all around the world who’ve been watching on YouTube, reading my book, and taking our courses. If you’ve been supporting the journey for any length of time, thank you so much. Because of your support, I’ve been able to turn an obsession with productivity and personal development into a viable career path. I couldn’t be more grateful ☺️
