This week, I had the absolute pleasure of sitting down with someone whose story of transformation is not just powerful, but profoundly moving. Doug Bopst, once a convicted felon and drug addict, is now a celebrated speaker, author, and personal trainer using his experience to inspire others to break free from addiction and build lives of purpose and passion.In this episode, Doug and I dive deep into the truth behind recovery, the mindset shifts required to let go of the past, and the tools that helped him completely reshape his future. He shares how a cellmate in jail became the unexpected catalyst for his change, and how fitness, nutrition, and a strong spiritual foundation became pillars in his healing journey.We also touch on the male mental health crisis, vulnerability as a strength, and the importance of building authentic connections in a disconnected world. Doug opens up about how he found faith, purpose, and peace—and how he maintains his mindset on the hard days.If you've ever felt stuck, unworthy, or afraid to face your past, this conversation is here to show you that change is always possible.About Doug Bopst: Doug is an award-winning personal trainer, author of three books, and host of the Adversity Advantage Podcast.

Each week, I ask my guest five questions designed to nourish their mind, body, and soul pre interview. These questions help us explore what makes each guest tick as an imperfect, evolving human, taking them out of their heads and into their bodies.While our discussions often go deep into the intellect, these questions invite my guests to step out of their comfort zones, gain a fresh perspective, and perhaps hold a bit more compassion for themselves. I believe this shift from headspace to heart space is something we can all relate to – it’s the universal journey of being human.And as a listener, I hope you’ll come away feeling a little more connected, not only to these stories but to the shared truths and vulnerabilities we uncover here. Each conversation is an opportunity to peek behind the scenes and share in the humanity of those on the other side of the microphone.Fourth -  Harvard psychiatrist and researcher, Dr. Chris Palmer.Listen to the full episode ⁠here⁠.Watch the full episode on YouTube ⁠here⁠.***Thank you to my wonderful sponsors! VivoBarefoot | 'If you can’t be barefoot, be Vivobarefoot’For 20% off, use code LWBW20www.vivobarefoot.comOneSkin | Topical Products for Healthy Aginghttp://oneskin.co/LWBWUse code LWBW for 15% off your first order ***If you enjoyed this episode you might also like:How to Reset Your Vagus Nerve & Unlock Better Mental Health | Radhika Dashttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8rUi49Iiq0U&t=2sYung Pueblo's ONE Habit That CHANGED His Life Foreverhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a5_16t0gIlk&t=115sDr. William Li: Can Diet DAMAGE Your Blood Brain Barrier?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UrCxdniSLiU&t=115s***Sign up to Sarah’s Compassionate Cure newsletter: Science Simplified, Health Humanised.

This conversation hit me hard as my own grandmother suffered from Alzheimer's for 14 years before passing. If you're worried about cognitive decline for yourself or someone you love, this clip delivers game-changing insights. The neurologists break down why women are more susceptible to Alzheimer's, and reveal the NEURO plan - a simple framework anyone can follow to protect their brain health. They debunk the oversimplified "Type 3 Diabetes" theory and explain how up to 80% of dementia cases might be preventable through lifestyle changes. This isn't just about adding years to your life, but life to your years by protecting your most precious asset - your mind.***Thank you to my wonderful sponsors!

This week, I’m sitting down once again with someone who’s not only inspired millions around the world but has become a close friend - Simon Sinek. It’s such a joy to have this deeply open and personal conversation in his own home, where we journey far beyond leadership theory into the very heart of identity, self-acceptance, and the messy beauty of being human.Simon is the renowned author of Start With Why, Leaders Eat Last, and The Infinite Game. Known globally for his work on leadership and purpose, Simon has transformed how organisations and individuals think about fulfilment, motivation, and long-term success. But in this episode, we strip all that back. What was Simon like before his big ideas took shape? How did his ADHD diagnosis in adulthood impact him? And why does he believe our unique neurodivergence can be our greatest superpower?We speak candidly about mental health, self-doubt, the friction of neurodivergence, and why vulnerability with friends has been key to Simon’s own journey of growth. This isn’t the Simon you’ve heard in keynote speeches - this is the Simon who’s still evolving, still curious, and still navigating change. I think you’ll find real comfort and wisdom in what he shares.About Simon Sinek: Simon is a bestselling author, inspirational speaker, and unshakable optimist. His work focuses on leadership, purpose, and building a better world by helping people live and lead more fulfilled lives. His TED Talk on “Start With Why” is one of the most watched of all time, and his ideas have influenced everyone from Fortune 500 CEOs to early-stage entrepreneurs.Follow Simon Sinek:Website: simonsinek.comInstagram: @simonsinekTwitter/X: @simonsinekLinkedIn: Simon SinekLove,Sarah Ann 💛***Thank you to my wonderful sponsors! VivoBarefoot | 'If you can’t be barefoot, be Vivobarefoot’For 20% off, use code LWBW20www.vivobarefoot.comOneSkin | Topical Products for Healthy Aginghttp://oneskin.co/LWBWUse code LWBW for 15% off your first order ***If you enjoyed this episode you might also like:This Is HOW You Can Architect Your Emotions | Dr. Lisa Feldman Barretthttps://youtu.be/Es2i3oLj6NwSimon Sinek: The 8-Minute Rule That Could SAVE YOUR Friendshipshttps://youtu.be/3JCjOQv9Y5E?si=9v8OszGVaogBySXZ Why You're STUCK in Self-Awareness and How to BREAK FREE?

Did you know that a significant number of IBS patients struggle with anxiety and depression? This stark reality drives home why it's crucial to view the brain and gut not as separate but as intricately linked systems.In today's Live Well Be Well episode, I sit down with Dr. Emeran Mayer, a leading expert in the brain-gut connection. Together, we explore how this connection influences our overall health, emphasising the need for a holistic approach to both mental and gut health. Dr. Mayer explains how stress impacts our gut health just as significantly as diet does and discusses the benefits of cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and other stress-management techniques in treating gut-related issues.This conversation delves into:✔️ The two-way communication between our brain and gut.✔️ The role of stress in gut health and effective stress-reduction techniques.✔️ The importance of a microbiota-friendly diet rich in fiber and polyphenols.✔️ Debunking myths around digestive enzymes, types of milk, and sweeteners.✔️ The influence of environmental factors like plastics on our gut health.✔️ How psychedelic therapy is emerging as a potential treatment for gut health issues linked to psychological stress.Dr. Mayer leaves us with a profound definition of what it means to Live Well Be Well - that true wellness comes not just from what we eat in isolation, but from leading a life that's good for ourselves, our communities, and the planet.Who is Dr. Emeran Mayer?Dr. Mayer is a prominent gastroenterologist and neuroscientist, recognized for his extensive research on the brain-gut connection. With professorships at UCLA and authorship of significant works like "The Mind-Gut Connection" and "The Gut-Immune Connection," Dr. Mayer advocates for a comprehensive approach to health that marries diet with lifestyle modifications to enhance both mental and physical well-being.👉 Connect with Dr. Emeran Mayer:Website: https://emeranmayer.com/Instagram: @emeranmayer***Thank you to my wonderful sponsors! VivoBarefoot | 'If you can’t be barefoot, be Vivobarefoot’For 20% off, use code LWBW20www.vivobarefoot.comOneSkin | Topical Products for Healthy Aginghttp://oneskin.co/LWBWUse code LWBW for 15% off your first order ***If you enjoyed this episode you might also like:The MOST Surprising Food That Fights Disease & Helps With Losing Weight | Doug Evanshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YRuYfCmIz74How to Prevent Alzheimer’s and Boost Your Brain Health with These PROVEN Foods | The Brain Docshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HKEvPm11R3oThe Surprising Spice That Reduces Inflammation FAST!
