My guest today is scientist Dr. Benjamin Bikman, author of Why We Get Sick. He is a leading metabolic research scientist, author of 'Why We Get Sick,' and a member of The Golden 30 (the list of the most influential health leaders who are driving the needle for podcasters). His work focuses on the things that disrupt or accompany metabolic disorders, like obesity, type two diabetes, and dementia. Ben discusses his appreciation for having healthy glucose levels but how important it is for us to focus on maintaining our insulin sensitivity and the long-term health impacts if we become insulin resistant. Dr. Bikman communicates a very clear path to managing some of these challenges based on science and what continues to show up in his research. He has created a brand called HLTHcode in an effort to support us in our fast paced lives with some of the right nutrition. Dr. Bikman offers a lot of information and helpful takeaways in this episode.

My guest today is Brett Bartholomew. Brett is an author, keynote speaker and founder of the Art of Coaching. Brett has been a long-time performance coach for professional athletes and through this experience, he understood and developed techniques for effective communication. His book Conscious Coaching: the art and science of building buy-in was a number eight best seller in business and leadership on Amazon. His passion for teaching people how to communicate effectively whether it's at work or in a personal environment is unmatched. Educating people on how to navigate all different types of environments, people, and learning how to effectively communicate their thoughts and ideas regardless of the situation. He takes it even a step further to highlight the fact that context is equally as important as what you are trying to communicate. I always admire Brett's ferocious curiosity and passion.

My guest today is a clinical assistant professor of child and adolescent psychiatry at the NYU School of Medicine and a licensed clinical psychologist: Dr. Yamalis Diaz.Dr. Diaz specializes in ADHD and focuses on ways to put systems in place to support people with the diagnosis. What is happening that is different in the ADHD brain in structure and function? Dr. Diaz gives us a deeper understanding of what that child or adult is navigating and how we can help them. What have they discovered in the research in the last 10 years? How has our environment and technology have exacerbated the situation? She shares the meaningful impact of certain lifestyle habits and changes that can be made to make getting out of the house or the learning environment much easier. Like all situations that have unique challenges she gives us the wonderful reminder that when directed correctly this is a super power. Also if you are interested in more information on ADHD I would recommend the movie 'The Disruptors' directed by Stephanie Soechtig.EnjoyTimestamps: Specializing in ADHD [00:05:03] Significant Differences in Research [00:07:00] Structural and Functional Differences of ADHD Brain [00:09:54] Is ADHD Inheritable?

In this bonus ep off the heel's of Gabby's interview with Tim Ferriss, we flip the script, and Gabby answers some of Tim's classic questions he uses for his podcast "The Tim Ferriss Show." Questions Gabby touches upon are: What is the book (or books) you’ve given most as a gift, and why? Or what are one to three books that have greatly influenced your life? What purchase of $100 or less has most positively impacted your life in the last six months (or in recent memory)? My readers love specifics like brand and model, where you found it, etc. How has a failure, or apparent failure, set you up for later success? Do you have a “favorite failure” of yours? “f you could have a gigantic billboard anywhere with anything on it — metaphorically speaking, getting a message out to millions or billions — what would it say and why? It could be a few words or a paragraph. (If helpful, it can be someone else’s quote: Are there any quotes you think of often or live your life by?) What is one of the best or most worthwhile investments you’ve ever made? (Could be an investment of money, time, energy, etc.) What is an unusual habit or an absurd thing that you love?  In the last five years, what new belief, behavior, or habit has most improved your life? What advice would you give to a smart, driven college student about to enter the “real world”? What advice should they ignore? What are bad recommendations you hear in your profession or area of expertise? When you feel overwhelmed or unfocused, or have lost your focus temporarily, what do you do? (If helpful: What questions do you ask yourself?)

My guest today is friend Tim Ferriss. Author of the 4-hour workweek and host of the Tim Ferriss Show. I wouldn't say Tim loves to be interviewed which makes this all the more special for me. We talk about his journey to healing from childhood trauma, his feelings on psilocybin, his strategy if he were to start on his professional journey today, his approach to NFT and crypto and so much more. I always admire Tim's ability to be the endless beginner.

On this week's bonus, we re-visit some central questions and themes I explored in my discussion with Kenny "Bolt Wrestling" Johnson. We explore questions like: What did you see XPT pool training do for Kenny? A special interest in people who are “expert” in one area thrown into another. So a wrestler thrown in the water?  When did water training come into Gabby’s life?  What has it done for you? How has it changed you? Body, mind & spirit?  What are the benefits and challenges of water training? If I’m interested in getting into water training, where’s a good place to start?  Connect with Gabby @gabbyreece | LinktreeFor full show notes visit gabriellereece.com/podcastThe Gabby Reece Show talks to top experts with the goal of extracting the best information you will need to navigate the universe of health, fitness, relationships, parenting, and business.

My guest today is MMA coach and lifetime wrestler Kenny "Bolt Wrestling" Johnson. Now before all my non fighting fans run for the exits, you may want to spend some time with us. Kenny is not only one of the most energetic, passionate people I know, but his take on approaching challenging goals and coaching is brilliant. He shares how he went from a 96-pound freshman to training the likes of BJ Penn, Anderson Silva, Alexander Volkov, and Lyoto Machida to name a few.Kenny's ability to go hard and stay passionate about wrestling and helping others for close to 40 years is inspiring. He coaches at Black House MMA and Mira Costa High School.Kenny is on a mission to help young people develop and improve and uses wrestling to do that. This show is not about fighting (even though there are a lot of amusing stories) it's about being human and taking on lofty goals because you believe in what you're doing. Kenny wears his heart on his sleeve and likes to say the word Fuck from time to time (keep your eyes on the message).
