What does it take to become the undeniable, number one person in your industry...? That's exactly what Jayson Siano of Sabre Advisors did in the commercial real estate game. Jay helped launch the growth of the European Wax Center, Dry Bar, Starbucks, Chipotle, Orange Theory, Solid Core Pilates, and Stop N Shop grocery stores (to name a handful of his clients). This is not a story of immediate success. Jay not only had to overcome a drinking problem to achieve his success, but he credits his problems with alcohol with some of what allowed him to work so hard and take so much stress in his career.

Nutrition is so simple it's complicated. Lauren Papanos is a functional medicine certified, RD who believes that the overwhelming majority of hormone replacement therapy could be eliminated through diet and supplementation. She fell into the world of nutrition as a result of losing her cycle when competing in cheer on scholarship, where she had to maintain a low body weight, and still perform. Injuries started to mount, she lost her cycle, and she had to figure out how to turn things around to live a healthy life. Now she helps people from around the world simplify their eating and supplementation to perform at their best. Find Lauren on instagram at @functional.fueling

If you've heard Rachel Scheer on another podcast I promise you this, you have not heard her talk about what we discuss on today's episode, and you're going to want to tune in. Rachel found herself at the crossroads of having her intestines removed and taking control of her life, finding her own way to a cure for herself. She chose the latter and now she's bringing her message to the masses. We talk as much about the mind body connection, and who Rachel is at her core as we do about the science of health.

I recently attended an event called "Strength in Diversity" that my friend, Ebenezer Samuel hosted on behalf of Men's Health Magazine. I was skeptical at first because I rarely see diversity efforts that I believe make companies or services better. Typically what I see is virtue signaling, and getting minority faces into content to try an attract business from more people who look like them. When it comes to social causes I believe the most virtuous social cause is doing world class work. It doesn't matter what the people who do that work look like, as long as the effort is always on doing the best work. What was refreshing about the Strength in Diversity initiative is that there are no handouts. It's a mentorship approach to lifting people who come from marginalized communities. And that I can get behind. Today I ask Ebenezer the hard questions in regards to the relevance, merit, and future of diversity efforts in the work place.

Living a healthy lifestyle is much simpler than it's made out to be. One of the biggest mistake people make is the all or nothing approach. Sometimes you're better off doing less, and allowing it to be more. When is that the time?
