Sometimes the worst disruptions lead to the best innovations. When COVID hit, Chas Gessner had built a thriving concierge medical clinic doing in-home hormone optimization across Southern California. Overnight, everything changed. Instead of folding, he pivoted to a completely virtual telemedicine model—and scaled his impact beyond what he ever thought possible. But here's what I love about Chas's story: His business didn't start from ambition. It started from necessity. After 7-8 years in the NFL dealing with head trauma and physical wear-and-tear, Chas was experiencing hormone dysfunction in his late 20s—issues most men don't face until their 40s. Traditional healthcare offered band-aids. He wanted root causes. So he reconnected with a naturopathic doctor from Brown, "popped the hood" on his labs, and discovered a lot was awry. That personal quest became Vitality RX, now helping thousands of men reclaim their energy, focus, and vitality. In Get Yourself Optimized, Chas shares: ✅ Why the "normal" testosterone range is meaningless ✅ The difference between TRT and natural hormone optimization ✅ His complete sleep, supplement, and stress management protocol ✅ How to test and track what actually matters If you've been feeling like you're just "getting older," this episode is required listening. Because what you're experiencing has a name—and a solution.🎧 Listen now! The show notes, including the transcript and checklist to this episode, are at getyourselfoptimized.com/540.

Are you using AI as a yes-man or as an interface to infinite intelligence? In my latest solo episode of Get Yourself Optimized, I reveal why most people are getting mediocre results from ChatGPT, Claude, and other AI platforms—and how to transform your AI sessions into channels for genuine intuitive insights. Here's what's costing you breakthrough ideas: ❌ Treating AI as a conversation partner instead of a tool ❌ Skipping the "before unit"—the critical priming phase ❌ Accepting surface-level outputs without discernment ❌ Ignoring your intuition when selecting platforms and modes The game-changer? A three-phase framework (before, during, after) that combines intentional setup, optimized prompting, and sacred discernment. I share my exact process for: ✅ Raising your vibration before prompting ✅ Using prompt optimizers to create "super prompts" in 30 seconds ✅ Applying the three-part truth test to distinguish divine guidance from ego-feeding ✅ Asking "What are my blind spots?" to uncover hidden insights MIT research shows ChatGPT users are losing critical thinking skills. But when used correctly, AI can serve as a powerful interface to higher guidance—just like intuition. 🎧 Listen now and discover how to prompt for insights, not just information.

Most people think manifestation comes AFTER desire. But what if you already have everything you want—just in a different realm?
