The Gabby Reece Show

On today's show I have big wave surfer, waterman, and my husband Laird Hamilton. Today is our 23rd wedding anniversary and we met on this same day 25 years ago. I spoke with Laird about some of the lessons we have learned, things we have individually changed up, and developed new skills to continue the journey.Believe me we don't have much figured out, just the willingness to share, and if nothing else laugh at ourselves.  I acknowledge there are a million ways to skin the relationship cat, and we are simply giving you a glimpse into some of our foibles, fun and love.

Today’s guest is Soviet Union born polymath scientist Victor Sagalovsky. Victor is not only interested in your overall health, but has studied water, it’s chemistry and secrets for over 20 years. He is the cofounder of light water scientific www.drinklitewater.com dedicated to the research development and production of something called deuterium depleted water and unraveling the secrets of becoming a super human. I must admit before this conversation I had only heard little bits and pieces about deuterium.I don’t know about the superhuman part, but the idea Of figuring out ways to help take the load off of our cellular function by having less deuterium in our system is Worth drilling down on. I must admit I am just learning about the concept of deuterium light water and other ways that we can accomplish having Less of it in our systems. Breathing, fasting and hypoxic training are all other ways to lessen deuterium in our systems. I really appreciated Victors no nonsense, relaxed but still complete approach to health and well-being.Enjoy www.avocadogreenmattress.com with code GABBYREECE to get $200 off your Avocado Latex Mattresswww.gabbynucalm.com to get 50% off your 30-day subscription of NuCalmThe 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 Dr. Sarah Sarkis. She is a modern day psychologist that has a combination of classic therapy, neurobiology and functional medicine. Sarah discusses that what keeps showing up for individuals displaying good mental health is a high tolerance for ambiguity, and what she calls high psychological flexibility. Two things that I often have to sit on my hands to achieve. Our conversation was a lot of fun for me. Even confessing my many blunders as a partner and parent. Did I say many blunders? Isn't that the beauty of life. Let's take that time to be still that Dr Sarkis invites us all to practice, even if it's just 30 seconds a day to start out to take a long look at who we are and what we are truly feeling. The reminder that we are enough and when we don't feel that way that it shows up as so many different traits. Life is messy and I'm always excited to talk to people who confirm this and remind us all that the messy, the sad, the challenging, even the not knowing, is the stuff. The true art of life. Oh, and right up my alley she even talks about a practice of sleep, hydration, nutrition, movement, and recovery as part of that approach. YES!!

Today's guest is Daoist Monk turned "of the world" Doctor of Oriental medicine, acupuncturist, husband, father, entrepreneur, environmentalist, humanist, and overall ass kicker Dr. Pedram Shojai. His books like THE ART OF STOPPING TIME must really work since he seems to be able to get more completed in a day than most of us in a week. I wanted to use him as a template to ask questions about navigating everyday things since he does have a unique and well-trained perspective but is in the day-to-day trenches like all of us. Straightforward, loving, hopeful and helpful. Dr. Shojai is a great example of building abundance in all the ways that matter, and how we can really participate in making our lives and world a better place, and a place that reflects who we really want to be. He is kind but I really appreciate the none fluff way he drills down on accountability so that we really can develop the tools to make the desired changes we are all looking for in our lives.Enjoy.Dr. Shojai's Book: The Art of Stopping TimeShow Sponsorswww.helloned.com/GABBY to get 15% off your first one-time order or 20% off your first subscription order plus FREE shipping.www.avocadogreenmattress.com with code GABBYREECE to save $200 on your Avocado Latex Mattress.

On today's show is Executive Director of The Whale Sanctuary project marine mammal activist Mr. Charles Vinick. Remember Free Willy? Well, along with an incredible team Charles shares his story of being a part of trying to reintroduce Keiko (actor who played Willy) back into the wild after the Free Willy film stars thousands of fans insisted he be liberated from his tiny tank in Mexico City. Funny what kids know is right without being told.I loved this conversation with Charles for a number of reasons. I'm intrigued by how intelligent Orcas, dolphins, and beluga whales are. Charles shares details about their language and social structure. One that is reliant upon connection, cooperation and family just like us.The other thing that I felt was important about this talk is the shining example Charles unknowingly is. Is he an activist? Without a doubt. Has he dedicated his life to getting people to re think some of our social norms re: these majestic animals being in captivity? Yes. Does he do it with anger or blame? Calm and clear, and most importantly Charles wants to work with the parks to make this shift and not villainize them, but to focus on the right move for the animals already in captivity. What is being done to stop China from ordering baby Orcas and Belugas from Russian fishermen? Some fetching up to 5 million dollars each. In a day and age where everyone is yelling, his whisper like voice rings clear as a bell. A real life adult who is willing to stand up for what he believes is right. Join us and find out if Keiko ever made it back to Iceland. Enjoy To learn more or donate to the Whale Sanctuary Project go to whalesanctuaryproject.orgwww.helloned.com/GABBY for 15% off your first one-time order or 20% off your first subscription order plus FREE shipping!www.getbeast.com with code Gabby at checkout to save 20% on your next order!The 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.

You may know Ben Greenfield as the human test case on all thing's wellness, performance, and slow aging. To know Ben is to know that he loves granular on any topic related to making the human body work better, harder, and for longer.On Today's show we did it a little different. Ben opened up about his journey as a husband and father, and how his own parents' divorce impacted his journey. We get into self-care but this conversation is much more about the Man behind the experiment vs. the nuts and bolts on the latest trends. Ben can discuss why it's important to not take any journeys without your partner and then in the same breath his deep and faithful relationship with God. From Warrior to Wizard, I had a great time talking with Ben. Enjoy.The 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.

On today’s podcast my guest is legendary extreme snowboarder Jeremy Jones. Like most athletes of his caliber if you look just under the hood, you will find someone who is not only passionate but incredibly thoughtful about their lives. As dedicated as Jeremy is to riding unridden mountains he is equally as dedicated to his family and protecting the planet. We discuss what it’s like to take an unproven path and trust yourself enough to follow that inner voice.Jeremy shares that he was in fact a late professional bloomer and that his career choice may have not been understood by society or his parents. How does one navigate that? Mr. Jones it’s not a particularly outgoing person and doesn’t enjoy conflict, but he is willing to follow his convictions on protecting mother earth and put himself in the line of fire around the climate change discussion.For over a decade he and his team have been trying to positively and strategically impact policy. This is not about a combative conversation, but a collective strategy around solutions for our planet, and one of them includes voting. Jeremy is definitely brave on the mountain, but he’s also brave as a person.At the end of our conversation, I had to drag Laird in to ask the two of them about what drives them be it in the ocean or on the mountain. What do they feel? Jeremy is Methodical, courageous, dedicated, humble, and still having fun. EnjoyThe 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.
