By doing so, I'm able to prioritize my well-being while making progress towards my personal goals.Additionally, I'm excited to delve into the topic of relying on data and technology versus staying connected to our internal selves when it comes to tracking our progress. As someone who's been in the fitness industry for a while, I've seen the growing trend of measuring devices and metrics. However, I want to emphasize the importance of tuning in to our bodies and being mindful of our physical and emotional needs. We'll explore this topic together and discuss how to find a balance between the two.Furthermore, we'll talk about the fundamental building blocks for optimal health, such as proper nutrition, exercise, sleep, and stress management. I want to remind you that it's not just about the action we take but our perspective on why we're doing it. I'll share some of my personal experiences and insights that have helped me develop a healthy perspective on the value of health and wellness.Lastly, as someone who has trained for 35+ years, I've come to realize that developing a sustainable approach to health and wellness is crucial for long-term success.

#192 Practical Intuition Mastery: 'Wall Street Psychic' Laura Day Shares Strategies for Optimal Goal Setting and Unlocking Your Inner Power to Help Navigate Decision Making, Healing Trauma, Parenting, Marriage & Life

My guest today is New York Times best-selling author Laura Day. Laura is an intuitionist and the first person I have met who talks about developing your intuition practically and matter-of-factly. She has been hired by 30 different companies, police trying to solve crimes, and individuals looking for love, but she swears it is something we can all develop better within ourselves. Maybe not to the level she can, but certainly better to help us navigate our personal and professional lives. She has also worked with some of Hollywoods' biggest stars and has been featured on Oprah for her intuitive work.This was a fun interview because I came out of it looking at intuition and "psychic " completely differently. I'm happy to suspend my beliefs but it is made easier when someone explains things in a way that makes a lot of sense and has a 40 year track record. Laura doesn't love guesswork; she wants real-life feedback and proof that what she sees and feels is accurate. Laura knows how to communicate ways to help people organize a real strategy around figuring out and getting what they desire.

#186 Bryan Johnson | Achieving the Biomarkers of an 18 Year Old, Breakthrough Science in Age Reversal, New Ways to Overcome Depression & Ridding the World of Harm

My guest today is Bryan Johnson, founder of Braintree that sold Venmo to PayPal/eBay for $800 million.After experiencing many years of deep depression Bryan decided to venture out on an intense experiment with his latest project blueprint and his newest company, Kernel. He has for the past two years been eating the same meals, taking 105 supplements each day, and doing the same physical training to create a non-disputable baseline. Bryan's hope is to see if he could get into optimal health but also turn back his chronological age. I asked Bryan how long this experiment will go on and his answer is "forever".A lot of people have an intense response to his experiment, but rather than dismissing it or throwing some superlatives at what he's doing, I thought it would be better to go in and try to understand and learn from him, his perspective. Bryan and his team at Kernel are collecting data, measuring over 200 health points, taking pictures of his organs, observing the brain under different circumstances and who knows maybe it's all information that can help us.
