About the Founder

My name is Brandon Goeckel, OTR/L, and I am the founder of InClutch Health. I was raised in the rural community of Hanover, Kansas, where I grew up on a dairy farm. From an early age, I developed a deep respect for hard work, personal responsibility, integrity, and service to others. Those values continue to shape my approach to healthcare, leadership, and business. My mission is rooted in a simple but powerful belief: those who care for others deserve intentional, evidence-informed support for their own well-being.

I earned my undergraduate degree in Psychology from Kansas State University before completing a Bachelor’s in Occupational Sciences and a Master’s in Occupational Therapy at the University of Kansas Medical Center. For more than ten years, I have practiced as a licensed Occupational Therapist (OT) across diverse clinical settings, treating patients from two weeks to 104 years old. My experience spans pediatrics, geriatrics, rural healthcare delivery, rehabilitation, and interdisciplinary care environments. While I spent time as a traveling therapist, I have primarily served as a rural healthcare provider in my home community, where access, efficiency, and resilience are essential components of care.

Over the course of my clinical career, I have worked alongside hundreds of physicians, nurses, therapists, and allied health professionals. Across settings and specialties, I observed a consistent and concerning trend: healthcare professional burnout. Colleagues frequently reported chronic stress, mental fatigue, emotional exhaustion, compassion fatigue, musculoskeletal pain, and cognitive overload. These symptoms often extended beyond the workplace, negatively impacting family life, relationships, physical health, and overall quality of life. As a clinician trained to analyze performance, environment, and occupational balance, I began asking a foundational question: Who heals the healers?

That question became the catalyst for InClutch Health. As both a healthcare provider and a member of the population I serve, I understand firsthand the psychological demands, documentation burden, productivity pressures, and systemic inefficiencies that contribute to burnout in healthcare. My approach emphasizes root-cause problem solving rather than temporary symptom management. I am committed to improving resilience, cognitive performance, stress management, and sustainable energy for healthcare professionals so they can provide exceptional patient care while strengthening their identities outside of work—as spouses, parents, leaders, and community members.

This commitment led to the development of N-Pulse, a multi-functional wellness supplement formulated specifically to combat the most common contributors to healthcare burnout: mental fatigue, chronic stress, physical exhaustion, and decreased focus. Originally conceptualized as a healthier alternative to traditional coffee creamers—recognizing that 85–90% of healthcare professionals consume coffee daily—N-Pulse evolved into a versatile drink additive designed for coffee, protein shakes, smoothies, yogurt, tea, and other daily routines. The formulation includes nootropics for cognitive performance, adaptogens for stress resilience, essential vitamins for energy metabolism, and prebiotics for gut health support. The goal is simple: deliver sustained mental clarity, balanced energy, and enhanced performance without the crash associated with conventional stimulants. Sharper minds. Smoother grinds.

In addition to product innovation, I am the author of The Burnout Delta: A Healthcare Guide to Get Through, Heal, and Back, a structured and practical resource addressing healthcare worker burnout prevention and recovery. The book is organized into three primary domains: Client Care, Professional Environment, and Personal Well-Being. Each domain is further divided into focused subsections—including emotional investment, workplace dynamics, systemic healthcare challenges, physical health, mental health, and relational well-being—and provides evidence-informed, actionable strategies for restoring occupational balance and professional fulfillment.

I also recognize family caregivers as an extension of the healthcare workforce. Through both my clinical experience and my personal journey supporting aging grandparents at home, I have witnessed the emotional strain, relational tension, and decision-making complexity associated with long-term caregiving. This perspective led me to write The Homer Guide: Keeping Loved Ones at Home Without Caregiver Burnout, a comprehensive resource focused on caregiver communication strategies, home safety modifications, adaptive equipment recommendations, aging-in-place planning, and navigating transitions to assisted living or skilled nursing facilities when appropriate.

InClutch Health is built on clinical expertise, lived experience, and an unwavering commitment to ethical, patient-centered values. My work integrates occupational therapy principles, preventive health strategies, cognitive performance support, and sustainable wellness solutions for healthcare professionals and caregivers. I believe that by strengthening the well-being of those who serve others, we elevate the entire healthcare system.

Those who dedicate their lives to caring for others deserve solutions that are practical, research-informed, and rooted in genuine understanding. That is the foundation of InClutch Health.
