You think you know about cold water until you see this woman get out her ice saw and cut ice holes for her clients and retreats! A true badass, inspiring speaker, and fast friend of mine - Lisa's deep dive into health started as a young girl swimming in lakes and pools in Ontario, Canada.

Inspiring cold exposure communities everywhere, with the company she co-founded UNBOUNDED, Lisa has made it her life's purpose to dedicate herself to this work making this method available and accessible. Lisa pursued secondary education and graduated in 2013 with a Bachelor Hons. in Kinesiology and Health Science. She supplemented this degree by becoming a yoga instructor, breathwork facilitator, hydro therapist, and cold exposure therapist. Unbounded, an experience-/lifestyle brand focused around cold exposure offerings was founded in 2020 when Lisa's community branded their experiences. Unbounded offers local cold classes, workshops, retreats and experience living getaways. In 2022, Unbounded is expanding their offering to trainings, certifications and online education.

    Can a supplement aid in enhancing power, vigor and constancy? In today's episode of the WELLPOWER Podcast, we are joined by Emily Werner Ph.D., RD, CSSD. who breaks down the extraordinary scientific-supported prospective benefits of Mitopure(TM)- a revolutionary new supplement making news for its capability to spark off a vital recycling procedure in cells recognized as mitophagy, obstructing age-associated cellular degeneration. Dr. Werner reveals the role of mitochondria  and explains why mitochondrial health is essential to all. The doctors explain that as we grow older, mitochondrial regeneration decreases and inadequate mitochondria pile up in the cells, leading to a variety of troubles from fall in energy levels, robustness and muscle function to more serious health troubles such as diabetes and cognitive deterioration. Dr. Werner introduces Urolithin A, a particle that boosts the indispensable recycling and cleaning process of mitochondria- in the long run safeguarding cells from age-associated deterioration. Dr. Werner discloses that 2 out of 3 people lack the appropriate gut microbiome to generate Urolithin A from food. Mitopure(TM) is a bioavailable Urol Dr. Emily Werner is in her third season as the Team Dietitian for the Philadelphia 76ers of the NBA.

    Mark is the Co-Founder and Chief Product Officer of Nootopia, a company crafting the future of experiential nutrition, nootropics, and bleeding-edge supplement design. He is a brilliant brain and mood optimization product innovator and master nootropic formulator.   In 2008, Mark's wife, a former model/singer/mother of three home-birthed children, passed away from an oxycodone/oxycontin fueled addiction. This set him on the fast track to developing compounds that would hopefully reverse some elements of addiction and sickness, to help the addict in these three critical ways: To bring clarity to the mind, helping improve decision-making. To bring energy to the body, so executing good decisions was easier. To eliminate the desire for the drugs, and replace them with optimism for life. A surprising but encouraging byproduct of these formulas, all based on novel nootropic stacks - was this: If you're healthy, they helped you perform like a Rock Star. If your brain and body didn't need to detox from painkillers, meth, coke or whatever your poison be, you not only returned to your baseline performance. You found yourself experiencing an enlightened sense of mental capacity you may have never felt before. Before starting to use nootropics, it is always wise to educate yourself on what exactly they are and how they work. Because of this, we invited Mark "Mr. Noots" Effinger to the podcast today to fill us in. In this episode, you'll learn how nootropics work and what makes Nootopia's products unique. You'll also get some tips on how to take nootropics for maximum benefits in areas like productivity, rest, and disposition.

    Sugar and alcohol are prominent in the top 20 best-selling wines in the United States.  In that case, is it possible to drink wine regularly while staying healthy?  If you are concerned about what you are putting into your body and its implications on your wellness, longevity, or body shape, how can you solve this problem? Joining Kristin on the podcast is Todd White. As the founder of Dry Farm Wines, a writer, speaker, and a leader in the organic/Natural Wine movement, Todd White has widely educated communities on conscious consumption.  Todd is a self described biohacker who practices daily meditation, Wim Hof breathing, cold thermogenesis, a ketogenic diet, and daily 22 hour intermittent fasting. He is also a frequent speaker on topics including meditation, and the Dry Farm Wines unique company culture. Built on a foundation of honesty and peace, Dry Farm Wines has seen remarkable growth, making it one of the fastest growing private companies in the U.S., without any debt or investors. Dry Farm Wines is endorsed by many leading U.S. performance influencers with pure Natural Wines that are lab tested  to ensure each bottle is sugar free (0-0.15g per glass), lower in sulfites, and lower in alcohol (under 12.5% alc/vol). The wines are friendly to low carb, Paleo, ketogenic, and low sugar diets.  Dry Farm Wines is proud to be the largest Natural Wine merchant in the world, bringing awareness to Natural Wine consumption and supporting farmers who honor the soil. In this episode, he expresses his concern with modern winemaking practices, namely using harmful additives to speed up production and boost profitability and the lack of transparency. He details differences in commercial, organic, and natural wines, elaborating on how they are made, the pros and cons of each. Todd then discusses important considerations to make when selecting healthy wine. Therefore, pay close attention to learn some of the trade's most closely guarded secrets.

Barton is an athlete and chemical engineer who had been lucky to enjoy a constantly sharp mind up to a certain point in his life - when this began to shift rapidly in the other direction, without him having any idea why.

He was only in his mid twenties then, and to make matters so much worse, a massive hole opened in his life at the same time, when without warning, he lost someone very close to him to an aneurysm. It was preventable, he knew. Watching one of the people he loved the most die because no one could help her was THE motivating force for his work today.
