Your Longevity Blueprint

On this podcast, we often talk about what to eat, how to move, and how to sleep. But what if the key to living longer and feeling better is something most of us have never even considered? I’m excited to have Dr. Jo Brown joining me for a two-part series. She has spent more than two decades working with some of the world’s greatest athletes, In Part 1 today, we discuss the nervous system, how it affects your energy, recovery, resilience, and how long you may actually live. How to know if your nervous system is dysregulated Notice whether you wake up feeling refreshed or fatigued. Pay attention to difficulties in falling asleep or waking during the night Look for irritability, anxiety, or mood changes  Do you regularly need extra coffee or sugar to get through the afternoons? Pay attention to brain fog, memory problems, or difficulties in thinking clearly. Notice increased cravings, fatigue, or signs of inflammation Look at how you respond to stress  Bio:  Dr. Jo Brown is a globally respected performance physiotherapist and high-performance coach with over two decades of experience on the world stage.

Dr. Jo is currently Head of Human Performance at Nuropod, where she's bringing nervous system science into the mainstream performance conversation.  What makes Dr. Jo's approach so powerful is that she doesn't just treat bodies — she builds complete performance ecosystems, blending science, intuition, and belief to help people perform and feel their absolute best. In this episode: How observing elite athletes changed the way Dr. Brown understood performance How nervous-system regulation helps athletes consistently perform under pressure What we can learn from facing the things we are unwilling, afraid, or anxious to look at Why the nervous system is central to both performance and longevity Dr. Brown explains the relationship between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems Some common signs of a dysregulated nervous system  Why Dr. Brown recommends looking at trends over time instead of becoming obsessed with HRV or sleep scores Links and Resources: Use code BRAINMAG to get 10% off ⁠⁠⁠Neuro Magnesium Support Use code MealShield to get 10% off ⁠⁠⁠MealShield Support the launch by purchasing your copy on September 29th!

Today, in Part 2, we explore real-life examples, including dinner battles, kids who refuse to try new foods, and teens who live on carbs, and Katie explains how getting kids into the kitchen helps them take ownership of both their choices and their health for life.

Ways to Help Children Take Ownership of Their Food Choices Limit dessert to once a day, and let your child choose when to have it  Keep introducing new foods without pressuring your child to eat them Teach children to listen to their body  Help children understand how food fuels their bodies   Gradually allow older children more responsibility for their food choices Bio:  Katie Kimball of Raising Healthy Families is on a mission to connect families around healthy food and teach every child to cook!

Does your child eat well at breakfast but refuse dinner? Or perhaps they loved veggies last year but won’t even touch them now? I’m excited to have Katie Kimball, who is on a mission to connect families around healthy food and teach children to cook, with me for a two-part series. In Part 1 today, we explore several reasons why your child might be a picky eater, and Katie clarifies how to figure out which one might be affecting your child. How to help picky eaters: Look for patterns in what your child struggles to eat, rather than focusing only on what they refuse to eat Establish regular meal and snack times, keeping meals and snacks at least 90 minutes apart  Let children serve themselves as soon as they are able Respond calmly and avoid pressuring your child to eat Avoid power struggles around food  Allow children to touch, smell, or explore foods at their own pace  Bio:  Katie Kimball of Raising Healthy Families is on a mission to connect families around healthy food and teach every child to cook! Her TEDx talk "Picky Eating Isn't About the Food" inspired a membership called The Picky Eating Playbook, and now a book being published in November 2026 through Familius Press. In this episode: What may lie behind a child's refusal to eat certain foods How sensory sensitivities can make some foods difficult to tolerate How to avoid power struggles around food What to do when children ask for snacks outside their regular meal and snack times How to limit snacks and second helpings How learning to cook can help children become more willing to mix foods How to introduce new foods to picky eaters Links and Resources: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Your Longevity Blueprint Omega 3s – 60 capsules⁠Use code HEALGUT to get 10% off ⁠⁠GI Support Support the launch by purchasing your copy on September 29th!

Are you having therapy, meditating, and sleeping better, yet still stuck? Dr. Roseann Capanna-Hodge joins me today to share the missing ingredient most of us overlook and explain why learning to regulate yourself and calm your nervous system may be one of the best things you can do for your longevity. Stay tuned to learn what to do when your toddler has a meltdown, how to handle screen-time conflicts, and why you need to regulate yourself in those calm moments too. Some small, daily practices to help you regulate yourself: Practice diaphragmatic belly breathing Use simple somatic practices, like a butterfly tap or a heart hug  Try humming Do these practices for one to three minutes, at least five times a day. Use them during calm moments too, to train your nervous system to regulate when you are annoyed, stressed, or dysregulated.  Bio:  Dr. Roseann Capanna-Hodge is a licensed therapist and certified school psychologist with more than 30 years of experience. She founded The Global Institute of Children’s Mental Health and Dr. Roseann & Associates, and Forbes has called her “a thought leader in children’s mental health.” She hosts the Dysregulated Kids podcast and created Regulation First Parenting™️. Her clinical work uses neurofeedback, biofeedback, psychotherapy, and nutrition. Her newest book, The Dysregulated Kid: The Parenting Playbook for Helping Your Child Find Calm in a Chaotic World, was released on September 22, 2026. Its core message is that kids don’t need fixing; they need nervous system regulation. In this episode: Why younger children may struggle with frustration while older children generally become better at regulating themselves How dysregulation can show up in adults Why rewards, consequences, and timeouts often fail with dysregulated children, and how to help them Why screens should not be used as a coping tool for dysregulated children  How parents can prevent and manage screen time conflicts  How your child’s nervous system can sync with your nervous system How unresolved stress can continue to affect people later in life Why you should practice regulation when you are already calm Links and Resources: Support the launch by purchasing your copy on September 29th!

We also discuss the health benefits of infrared saunas, explain which ones are backed by solid science, and which are still being studied. How to start using an infrared sauna: Start slowly, with lower heat   Pay attention to how your body responds and adjust the heat intensity accordingly. If you don't sweat easily, build up gradually and give your body time to develop that response Work toward using the sauna two to three times a week, and eventually three to four times a week  Bio:  Vic Riffel is a central figure on the Partner Team at Sunlighten, a leading producer of infrared saunas.

Welcome to the first episode of Season 7 of the Your Longevity Blueprint podcast!  One week from today, on Tuesday, September 29th, my third book, Your Hormone Blueprint: Optimizing Vitality and Longevity Through Integrative and Functional Medicine, is coming out.  Stay tuned as I talk about my book, share the argument at its heart, and walk you through what I truly want every woman and every man to understand about their bodies. How to build a strong foundation before considering HRT: Start with good nutrition — Make sure you’re getting the vitamins, minerals, and omega-3s your body needs to use hormones effectively.  Keep your bowels regular — Regular elimination helps your body clear hormones it no longer needs.  Support healthy liver function — Consider factors such as alcohol, medications, and environmental toxins that can place an additional burden on the liver.  Bio: Stephanie Gray Stephanie Gray, DNP, MS, ARNP, AGNP-C, ABAAHP, FAARFM, is a functional medicine provider who helps men and women build sustainable, optimal health and longevity.  A nurse practitioner since 2009, Dr. Gray completed her doctorate focusing on estrogen metabolism from the University of Iowa in 2011 and holds a Master's in Metabolic Nutritional Medicine from the University of South Florida's Medical School. Dr. Gray is one of the Midwest's most credentialed female healthcare providers. She completed an Advanced Fellowship in Anti-Aging, Regenerative, and Functional Medicine in 2013 and became Iowa's first BioTe certified provider—now the state's only platinum provider with over 10,000 pellet placements. She is also certified as a SIBO doctor-approved practitioner, mold-literate provider, and ReCODE 2.0 practitioner for cognitive decline prevention. An Amazon best-selling author, Dr. Gray wrote Your Longevity Blueprint and Your Fertility Blueprint, and hosts the Your Longevity Blueprint podcast. She co-founded Your Longevity Blueprint Nutraceuticals with her husband, Eric. After her own ten-year fertility journey, she now specializes in helping couples optimize reproductive health through functional medicine. Having lost her grandmother to vascular dementia, she is personally committed to helping families avoid cognitive decline. Dr. Gray founded the Integrative Health and Hormone Clinic in Hiawatha, Iowa. In this episode: How my personal health challenges shaped my latest book I explain how estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, thyroid hormones, and the adrenals contribute to keeping the body functioning well Why I view hormone optimization as part of a longevity strategy What the Women’s Health Initiative actually tested, and how its findings shaped attitudes toward HRT How the optimal lab ranges I use in my practice differ from conventional lab reference ranges Why symptoms such as hot flashes are clues rather than a diagnosis, and why two women with the same symptoms may require very different approaches What patients should know about the preservatives, dyes, fillers, and other ingredients in their hormone prescriptions Three foundational aspects to address before opting for HRT  How to identify whether your hormone prescription is bioidentical or synthetic Links and Resources: Support the launch by purchasing your copy on September 29th!
