  • My Sleep Routine to Guarantee 8 Hours of Sleep
    I'm deeply passionate about busting the dangerous myth that you need less sleep as you age. The truth is, quality sleep becomes even more critical as we get older, especially when we're working hard to build muscle and recover from workouts. In this episode, I share my battle-tested sleep strategies that I've used personally and with thousands of clients. You'll discover why proper sleep timing matters, how to create the perfect bedroom environment, and the supplements that can transform your sleep quality. After helping Broadway performers, news anchors, and rock stars fix their sleep patterns, I've seen firsthand how even the most disrupted sleep schedules can be repaired with the right approach. What you'll learn: Why the "I'll sleep when I'm dead" mentality actually gets you there faster How alcohol sabotages your deep sleep cycles and creates a vicious cycle The perfect bedroom temperature for optimal sleep (it's colder than you think!) My power-down hour routine that signals your body it's time for rest Travel hacks to beat jet lag and maintain your sleep quality anywhere Why your eating window timing dramatically impacts sleep quality Simple supplement strategies to support deep, restorative sleep Love the Podcast?

  • 5 Foods I Eat To Lose Weight + Build Muscle Over 50
    If you're over 50 and think losing fat and building muscle is impossible, I have great news! After years of testing, I've identified five essential foods that can transform your body composition. These protein-rich powerhouses - grass-fed beef, wild salmon, Greek yogurt, pasture-raised eggs, and collagen - are the foundation of a diet that supports muscle growth while fighting inflammation. The secret isn't just about eating protein; it's about consuming the right kinds with their unique amino acid profiles, bioavailable nutrients, and metabolic benefits. When you prioritize these foods, you'll experience increased energy, reduced cravings, and improved recovery within days. This isn't another diet fad - it's a sustainable approach to nourishing your body for strength and vitality in your prime years. What you'll learn: Why grass-fed, grass-finished beef provides unique nutrients like creatine, CLA, and omega-3s that support muscle growth How wild salmon's astaxanthin and omega-3 content makes it superior to farmed varieties for inflammation reduction The surprising benefits of Greek yogurt's slow-digesting casein protein (if you've healed your gut) Why the bright orange yolks in pasture-raised eggs signal higher nutritional value How collagen supports connective tissue strength - critical for injury prevention when strength training The importance of protein's thermic effect and its role in reducing cravings Simple ways to incorporate these foods into your daily routine for maximum benefit Love the Podcast?

  • The Hidden Link Between Stress, Gut Health, and Your Nervous System with Dr. Will Cole
    Uncovering the Real Cost of Processed Foods on Your Health  "How we're doing food wrong today is criminal. We need to follow other countries that have banned artificial dyes and make our food supply safer for our families." - Dr. Will Cole Dr. Will Cole, a pioneering functional medicine expert, pulls back the curtain on the shocking realities of America's food industry and its impact on our health. Fresh from confronting Kellogg's over harmful artificial food dyes at their headquarters, Will shares why thousands of food additives banned in other countries are still allowed in the US, and how this disproportionately affects our most vulnerable communities. We dive deep into the powerful connection between stress, emotional wellbeing, and gut health, exploring why setting boundaries might be your best medicine. Will also breaks down the truth about metabolic health, protein consumption for healthy aging, and why finding balance in our wellness approach matters more than following extreme protocols.   What you’ll learn: Why the US allows thousands more food additives than other countries and how this impacts public health The concerning connection between processed foods and behavioral issues in children How stress and emotional health directly impact your gut microbiome and overall wellness The critical markers for optimal metabolic health that your doctor might not be tracking Why "JOMO" (Joy of Missing Out) could be the medicine your nervous system needs The truth about protein consumption and aging - finding balance between extremes How to recognize signs of nervous system dysregulation and what to do about it   Love the Podcast?
