The Gabby Reece Show

My guest today is a professor of biochemistry, best-selling author, and known as the worldwide founder of the functional medicine movement Dr. Jeffrey Bland. Dr. Bland has been focusing on the improvement of human health for more than four decades. His latest passion is advocating for the power of immuno-rejuvenation. Did you know that it's possible to have a new immune system every eight weeks? The more I do this show the more I realize that with the right information and practice we have an even greater impact on our health than we realize. Just like our biological age can be younger or older than our chronological age. Dr. Bland is sharing how the same is true for our immune system.

My guests today are music producer Rick Rubin and poet, translator, scholar, and anthologist Stephen Mitchell. You may have heard Rick's name over the years as one of the founders of DEF jam records, nine-time Grammy winner, host and creator of the TV documentary show 'McCartney 3, 2, 1' and host of the podcast Broken Record. Rick has worked with artists such as the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Slayer, Johnny Cash, Kanye West, Jay Z and the Beastie Boys. As a friend, Rick had gifted me a book 'Tao Te Ching' by Lao Tzu, and he had given me the Stephen Mitchell version. Fortunately, Stephen Mitchell is a friend of mine. His works include the Bhagavad-Gita, Gilgamesh, The Gospel According to Jesus, and Loving What Is, which he co-authored with his wife Byron Katie. It was a real dream for me to have these two men sitting across from one another to have a conversation prompted by the Tao. Both of them are thoughtful, creative, precise, and unique in their approach to living. I hope you enjoy.Connect with Gabby @gabbyreece | LinktreeFor show notes and past guests, please 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.

Today, my guest is a performance coach and author, Alan Stein Jr. Alan's passion for helping others perform at their best has led him to his second book, 'Sustain Your Game.' Alan has experience working with NBA high performers like Steph Curry, Kevin Durant, and Kobe Bryant. His new book creates a simple-to-follow road map on behavior changes we can make or incorporate to better support us regardless of our quest. The book is broken into three sections Perform, Pivot, and Prevail. These are typical stages we may all face when pursuing a goal and then the idea of how to maintain it once we have gotten in the proverbial game. I realize that Alan's genuine curiosity about how to do this created the book. He doesn't claim to know more than anyone else. He has simply spent a lot of time investigating performance and achieving goals.
