Today's episode is a “repost” from my good friend Pete Evans’s podcast H.E.A.L. Pete and I recently shared this unfiltered conversation around health that I felt compelled to share with listeners of Stacked. Pete asked some excellent questions—in truth, he caught me off-guard with most of them—which gave me the opportunity to share some perspectives that I feel may be really helpful for listeners as we enter the new year.
In this episode, I discuss the difference between health and fitness, and why culture and our ancestral roots matter—especially when it comes to diet in a nutritional space that seems to leave no room for wine, bread, or cheese. I break down exactly how we tend to make becoming “healthy” stressful through over-analyzing, over-controlling, and becoming our own worst enemy. Lastly, I share some thoughts on endurance training and what I believe to be the healthiest way to get fit for ultra running.
It’s always fun to take a turn in the hot seat, and I hope you enjoy listening to this episode as much as I enjoyed recording it! (P.S. Stay tuned for Pete’s Stacked episode, coming in the next few months!)

After my recent podcast with Seed co-founder, Ara Katz, I began to dig a little deeper into the traditional "probiotic" industry—only to be quite disappointed with the reality of the effectiveness of almost all probiotic products on the market. Seed, on the other hand, has 23 strain-specific clinical studies behind it that demonstrate its effectiveness. Their innovative 2-in-1 capsule also nests the probiotics inside a prebiotic (sourced from Indian pomegranate and organic wild-harvested Scandinavian chaga and pine bark) capsule for additional protection, ensuring the probiotics actually get where they need to be inside of you—your gut.
