How selective breeding, natural immunity, and smart management create healthier, stronger, long-lasting strains. In this episode, we will talk about one of the most important, and often misunderstood, topics in chicken and gamefowl breeding: developing true, natural disease resistance within your bloodlines. We break down why disease resistance is a polygenic trait, how epigenetics and mitochondrial DNA shape health, and why selective breeding paired with ruthless culling is the breeder's most powerful tool. You'll learn how to build healthier birds through natural exposure, proper environment, gut health, biosecurity, and management practices that support the immune system rather than replace it. We discuss the dangers of overusing medications, how to identify truly resistant birds, and the role hens play in passing on vitality and immune strength. Whether you're building a new family or improving an existing strain, this episode delivers the practical steps and long-term strategy needed to create stronger, tougher, more resilient gamefowl, birds that thrive without medications and stand the test of time. If your goal is to produce birds that stay healthy, grow strong, and pass their vigor to the next generation, this is a must-listen. #DiseaseResistance #SelectiveBreeding #GamefowlBreeding #PoultryGenetics #NaturalImmunity #HealthyBloodlines #BreedingForVigor #GamefowlHealth #PoultryManagement #ResilientBirds #SustainableBreeding #StrongerStrains Make sure to follow and watch our future shows.

We explore what may be the fastest-moving technological shift dentistry has faced in decades and why most practice owners are still underestimating how quickly the ground is moving beneath them. While many dentists are using ChatGPT to write emails, draft social posts, or answer quick questions, the conversation argues that's barely one percent of what's now possible. The discussion digs into the rise of agentic AI, autonomous systems that take action rather than simply generate responses. Blake and Shane break down how AI is moving past the chatbot stage and becoming a true operational partner, capable of running workflows, automations, data analysis, content creation, and the endless repetitive tasks that quietly eat hours inside a dental practice. They also tackle the practical side most people skip, like knowing which model to reach for, why connections and context matter more than clever prompting, and how to avoid drowning in half-baked projects. But they issue a clear warning. AI is not a shortcut around leadership, systems, or operational excellence. Dentists who lack clear workflows, documented SOPs, and defined outcomes will simply automate chaos. The practices that win won't be the most technically advanced. They'll be the ones with the cleanest systems, the strongest foundations, and the willingness to learn alongside a community of peers. Peter, Blake, and Shane also get honest about the loneliness many dentists carry as practice owners, the value of AI as a non-judgmental thinking partner, and why community matters more than ever during periods of rapid change. They share real examples of AI already saving hours every week, helping teams execute faster, and creating leverage that simply wasn't possible a few years ago. If you've been experimenting with AI but still feel like you're using a fraction of its potential, this one is for you. This episode leads into the first-of-its-kind AI workshop on Sunday, August 9th at The Phoenician, held on the heels of the Bulletproof Summit. DESCRIPTION The Bulletproof Dental Podcast Episode: 444 HOST: Dr. Peter Boulden GUESTS: Blake McClellan and Shane McElroy (All In Practice Growth) In this episode, Dr. Peter Boulden sits down with Blake and Shane to discuss the future of AI in dentistry and why the next wave of innovation is about far more than chatbots and content creation. They explore agentic AI, workflow automation, SOP development, practice efficiencies, and the role community plays in helping dentists stay ahead of rapid technological change. The conversation provides practical examples of how AI can create leverage inside a dental practice while highlighting the common mistakes many practice owners make when implementing new technology. Whether you're just getting started with AI or already experimenting with advanced tools, this episode offers a practical roadmap for understanding where the technology is headed and how to position your practice for the future. TAKEAWAYS AI is evolving far faster than most dentists realize Community accelerates learning and implementation Agentic AI goes beyond chatbots by taking action, not just generating responses SOPs and workflows are the foundation of successful AI adoption AI cannot replace clarity, leadership, or operational discipline The best use cases often involve saving time on repetitive tasks AI can help practices create leverage without sacrificing quality Dentists should focus on outcomes rather than chasing every new tool Workflow mapping makes automation significantly more effective AI can become a powerful thinking partner for practice owners The future belongs to practices that combine human connection with technological efficiency Small improvements compounded over time can create significant competitive advantages TIME STAMPS 00:00 Introduction & Why AI Matters Right Now 02:10 The Origin of the Dental AI Summit 03:31 Why Community Is the Key to AI Adoption 04:45 Partnering with Bulletproof to Bring AI to Dentistry 06:00 AI Is Evolving Hour by Hour 07:49 The Difference Between AI Curiosity and AI Implementation 08:45 From AI Novelties to Real Practice Applications 11:04 Creating Leverage Inside Your Practice 13:10 Why Most Dentists Don't Know Where to Start 14:13 Days in AI Equal Months Ahead 17:42 The Biggest Opportunity for Dental Practices 20:06 Real-World AI Use Cases in Dentistry 22:08 Chatbots vs. AI Agents 24:35 How to Choose the Right AI Tools 26:24 Common Mistakes Dentists Make With AI 30:15 Context, Data, and Better AI Results 34:52 Innovative AI Applications You Can Use Today 45:15 Why SOPs Matter More Than Prompts 47:18 Mapping Workflows Before Automation 50:27 Using AI as a Product Manager 51:26 The Lone Wolf Syndrome in Dentistry 53:25 AI as a Coach, Mentor, and Thinking Partner 56:44 Practical Steps for Embracing AI 01:00:42 The Future of AI in Dentistry 01:02:08 Preparing for the Dental AI Summit 01:05:00 Final Thoughts & Event Details   REFERENCES Dental AI Summit Claude AI Grok AI OpenClaw AI Bulletproof Practice Growth Summit

Being ghosted in sales feels modern, but the problem is ancient. You meet someone at a networking event, have a positive conversation, follow up politely and then hear nothing but crickets. The danger is not only losing the opportunity. The greater risk is either giving up too early or following up so badly that you create brand damage. Professional salespeople need a follow-up rhythm that is persistent, respectful and defensible.  Why do buyers ghost salespeople after a good conversation? Buyers often ghost salespeople because they are overwhelmed, distracted or drowning in messages, not necessarily because they lied about being interested. The professional response is to assume the buyer is busy before assuming bad intent. Executives, managers and business owners receive a tsunami of emails, LinkedIn messages, calendar alerts, Teams notifications, Slack pings and social media updates every day. In Japan, the United States, Europe and across Asia-Pacific, post-pandemic hybrid work has increased digital noise and lowered tolerance for poor follow-up. Younger professionals are also often more text-based because written messages reduce confrontation and create an easy escape route: no reply. The problem is that no sales come from silence. Do now: Treat ghosting as a signal to follow up better, not as permission to disappear. Should salespeople keep following up after no response? Salespeople should keep following up if they genuinely believe they can help the buyer, but the tone must be respectful and benefit-led. Persistence is professional only when it serves the buyer. A second follow-up should acknowledge the buyer's busy schedule and apologise for adding to their inbox. Then it should restate the business benefit clearly. This protects the salesperson from sounding like a pest because the reason for the contact is not desperation, commission or pressure. The reason is value. For B2B sales teams, SMEs and multinational account managers, the question is simple: can this solution help the client improve revenue, productivity, leadership, customer retention or competitive performance? If yes, follow-up is part of service. Do now: In the second email, write briefly, apologise for the inbox intrusion and restate the buyer-centred benefit. How many follow-up emails are reasonable before moving on? Four thoughtful follow-ups are reasonable before concluding that silence probably means no. After that, the salesperson should move on and invest energy in a better buyer. The first message follows the original conversation. The second message politely restates the value. The third can use a slightly different version of the same buyer-focused message. The fourth should be short, unobtrusive and easy to answer. Dean Jackson's famous nine-word email formula is useful here: "Are you still interested in doing something with…?" The blank can reference the solution, business issue or opportunity discussed. This works because it is brief, non-threatening and forces a simple decision. Do now: Build a four-touch follow-up sequence before the meeting, not while emotionally reacting to silence. What should salespeople write in a follow-up email? Salespeople should write follow-up emails that are short, personal and anchored in the buyer's benefit. The goal is not to shame the buyer into replying, but to make responding easy. Forwarding the previous email can be useful, but it can also feel like a subtle accusation: "I wrote to you, and you ignored me." A stronger message starts with humanity. One useful habit is to begin with "Thanks…" because it reminds the salesperson to acknowledge the person before the business point. Another practical technique is to use the buyer's personal name as the subject line. "Tanaka san" or "Taro san" feels more human and lighter than a heavy corporate subject such as "Dale Carnegie Training Tokyo Proposal Follow-Up." Do now: Use the buyer's name, open with thanks and make the message easy to read in under 30 seconds. How can salespeople avoid damaging the brand with follow-up? Salespeople avoid brand damage by making every follow-up defensible, polite and connected to helping the buyer succeed. The buyer should feel pursued professionally, not pestered selfishly. People dislike spam because it is irrelevant, impersonal and endless. Sales follow-up becomes dangerous when it feels the same. The salesperson's defence is a clear service mindset: "My commitment is to help your business succeed, and I wanted to make sure you had the option to consider whether this makes sense." That framing works across Japanese business culture, Western B2B sales and relationship-based markets because it respects choice while demonstrating responsibility. The buyer can still say no, but the seller has not abandoned them prematurely. Do now: Prepare your explanation for follow-up before anyone challenges you on it. What should salespeople say when criticised for too much follow-up? Salespeople should calmly explain that consistent follow-up is part of serving customers properly. The answer must be prepared in advance because improvising under criticism often sounds defensive. A strong response might be: "I am sure you teach your own sales team the importance of serving customers, and that means doing the follow-up consistently and properly. That is why you are hearing from me. We are here to help your business beat your rivals and do better." This is a powerful reframe. Many executives privately wish their own salespeople were more persistent, organised and dedicated. The key is confidence without arrogance. The seller is not apologising for professionalism; they are explaining it. Do now: Write and rehearse your follow-up pushback response so it sounds natural, calm and buyer-centred. Conclusion: When does ghosting mean no? Ghosting does not automatically mean no after the first unanswered email. It may mean the buyer is busy, distracted, overwhelmed or buried under digital noise. The professional salesperson keeps going with tact, humility and a clear business reason. After four follow-ups, however, silence is probably the answer. At that point, move on and find a new buyer. The rule is simple: always allow the buyer to say "no" for themselves. Do not second-guess them by failing to follow up. Equally, do not damage your brand by chasing forever. FAQs Is being ghosted in sales always a rejection? No, being ghosted often means the buyer is overloaded, distracted or has lost track of the message. Salespeople should assume busyness first and rejection later. What is the best subject line for a follow-up email? A personal name is often the strongest subject line because it feels human and easy to open. For Japanese buyers, using polite forms such as "Tanaka san" can be appropriate depending on the relationship. How many times should I follow up with a buyer? Four respectful follow-ups are a practical limit before treating silence as a no. After that, the salesperson should move on to better-qualified opportunities. What should I say if a buyer complains about my follow-up? Explain that your follow-up is based on helping their business and giving them the option to decide. Keep the tone calm, respectful and focused on value.

Hey friends! Backups are not as cool as pentesting, but boy do they matter when things go sideways. This week I'm sharing how a Proxmox backup disk space meltdown led me to a completely overhauled — and honestly pretty bulletproof — backup setup for both home and work. Claude played a big role in helping me sort it all out. Here's what we get into: The backup history tour — I've been through CrashPlan, Dropbox, Backblaze (which saved my bacon after my house fire in 2019!), and a mystery one that may or may not have had "Panda" in the name. These days I'm settled on ARQ for personal backups — dead simple, backs up to just about everything (Dropbox, OneDrive, Google Drive, even their own ARQ Cloud for ~$80/year), and all data is encrypted at rest. Not a sponsor, but they should be. The 3-2-1 rule — I actually asked Siri mid-episode, and she initially thought it was a grounding/anxiety technique. (Valid, I guess?) The real answer: three copies, two different media, one offline. I've got a local copy plus OneDrive, Google Drive, and Dropbox — so I think I'm covered. The work side: Proxmox + PBS — My "data center" is a beefy Hetzner Proxmox box with about a dozen VMs. I had Proxmox Backup Server (PBS) set up on a secondary Hetzner box, happily cranking away… until it ran out of disk space and started yelling at me every night. Claude to the rescue — I spun up a Claude project, fed it terminal output and retention configs, and it gave me a straight-up honest assessment: either gut your retention policy (risky) or get more disk. It then walked me through Hetzner's auctions page — which I didn't even know existed — to find a storage-heavy, low-horsepower box. Ended up with two mirrored 8TB drives plus a 14TB drive for around $40/month. Not cheap, but totally worth it as a business expense. The new setup — PBS is now on its own dedicated Hetzner box. VMs from both my data center and my home NUC Proxmox box back up there nightly. Claude also suggested using that 14TB drive as an SFTP target for ARQ, giving me yet another redundant copy of all my personal data. It'll take a few weeks to fully sync, but I'm running some flavor of the 4-3-2-1 rule now (I made that up). Proxmox forever — Someone wrote in asking if I'd go back to ESXi now that Broadcom brought back the free version. Hard no. I've fallen in love with Proxmox and I'm not going back. 7MinSec wiki scripts repo — Head over to 7MinSec.wiki and click the Scripts button to find a new GitHub repo where I'm publishing pentesting scripts. First one up: a push-button Exegol installer. More to come — and I'll probably tease new scripts first over at 7MinSec.club on TuesdayTOOLSday!

Steiny & Guru react to the story today about the Warriors brand power and if it has carryover ability for the era of the Warriors that doesn't have Steph Curry.

Dr. Tommy Dooley bought a low-reimbursement practice in 2017 doing $1.3M with $600 crowns. Eight years later, he's at $6.1M across two locations with three partners, 35 team members, and 47% overhead. He followed the Bulletproof playbook to the letter: dropped from 10 insurance networks to three, expanded from 7 to 12 ops, brought in partners, and hit 20% year-over-year growth for five straight years. But then he hit a problem growth could not solve: he's redlining. Not clinically. Not financially. Psychologically. Tommy thought the next level of leadership meant knowing every team member personally, remembering every birthday, and becoming the emotional center of a 35-person operation. Craig and Peter challenged that. In this real-time coaching conversation, they unpack the leadership identity crisis that hits practice owners when the business scales past what one person can hold. They cover why your definition of "good leadership" might be wrong, why the skill set that built your practice can eventually break it, and why the best leaders stop pushing their team toward a vision and start building a team that is pulled by one. If you're growing fast, feeling stretched thin, and wondering whether you're doing leadership wrong, this episode is for you. CASE STUDY: Growing dental entrepreneur focused on leadership development and scaling beyond operator dependency. Transitioning from solo producer to business leader and team builder Learning how to scale leadership while maintaining practice culture Navigating the challenges of delegation and accountability Balancing practice growth with personal fulfillment and freedom Building systems that empower teams instead of creating dependency Redefining success beyond production and revenue numbers Understanding the difference between management, inspiration, and leadership Developing long-term vision for growth, team alignment, and sustainability Learning how to create optionality inside a growing business Leadership growth became the key bottleneck and breakthrough for scaling DESCRIPTION The Bulletproof Dental Podcast Episode: 436 HOSTS: Dr. Peter Boulden and Dr. Craig Spodak GUEST: Dr. Tommy Dooley MyStory is a new Bulletproof series where real dentists share their real story: what's working, what's not, and the questions they can't get answered anywhere else.

Why does occlusion feel so confusing at dental school? What if the problem is not that occlusion is too complex, but that it was taught in the wrong order? How do you make sense of worn teeth, bite scans, shimstock, leaf gauges, provisionals and T-Scan without getting overwhelmed? And which small ideas can genuinely change the way you diagnose, plan and restore? In this episode, Jaz is joined by Dr. Mahmoud Ibrahim for a brilliant occlusion-focused conversation. They each bring five clinical “pearls” that helped occlusion finally click for them — from facially generated treatment planning to checking the contralateral side, muscle palpation, provisionals and digital occlusal data. https://youtu.be/REQ_L5NNEF4 Watch PDP267 on YouTube Protrusive Dental Pearl Create a PowerPoint or Keynote library of your clinical photos so you can quickly show patients relevant examples during consultations. ⚠️ Avoid hunting through random folders chairside — it feels clunky and breaks the flow of the conversation. ✅ Build a scrollable visual library of cracks, before-and-afters, complications, direct restorations, overlays, crowns and consent examples to support clearer patient communication. Key Takeaways Occlusion becomes easier when it is placed inside the treatment planning sequence, not treated as a separate subject. Facially generated treatment planning starts with where the upper teeth need to be for aesthetics. Once the central incisors are planned, the rest of the occlusion becomes easier to organise. Worn teeth that are still in occlusion are often in the wrong position. Anterior wear may be caused by tooth position, contact time, contact force, or a combination of all three. Gingival levels can reveal whether worn lower incisors have over-erupted. Digital bite scans are useful, but they are not always a perfect representation of the patient's bite. Shimstock remains one of the most valuable and inexpensive tools for checking true occlusal contacts. After fitting a restoration, checking the contralateral side first can reveal whether the new restoration is high. Anterior guidance should be steep enough to separate the back teeth, but shallow enough to allow the lower incisors room to move. Muscle palpation should assess the quality and symmetry of contraction, not just whether the muscles exist. Always assess the opposing tooth before placing composite, ceramic or an indirect restoration. A leaf gauge can help create a more repeatable jaw position when planning more complex occlusal cases. Provisionals are essential for testing aesthetics, function, vertical dimension and occlusion before committing to final restorations.

Send us Fan MailOne call can change the way you breathe, drive, sleep, and even trust your own judgment. I sit down with paramedic Emma Irwin to talk through a suicide scene that hit hard, the moment she cried on scene, and the quiet belief that too many first responders carry: “I should be able to handle this.” We name what that pressure does to police, fire, EMS, dispatchers, and paramedics when trauma exposure finally breaks through the professional mask. Emma walks me through what happened after the call, including delayed PTSD symptoms that showed up weeks later: rising anxiety at work, a medication error that signaled something was seriously off, panic attacks leaving the house, and relentless intrusive images. We get specific about the difference between suicidal intent and intrusive trauma thoughts, and why honesty is the fastest path to real help. We also talk about debriefing, why going straight from a traumatic job to the next call can make things worse, and how workplace culture can either protect people or push them into silence. We spend time on practical coping mechanisms that don't cause more damage, especially peer support, self awareness, and the power of someone simply asking, “Are you OK?” Emma shares how EMDR therapy helped her process the scene, regain a sense of control, and ultimately rethink her career in a way that protects her mental health. We also address an uncomfortable but real part of EMS life: sexual harassment in the service, why “everyone knew” is not an excuse, and how reporting can change a station for the better. If you care about first responder mental health, paramedic PTSD, suicide prevention, and building teams where people can speak up early, this conversation is for you. Subscribe, share this with a teammate, and leave a review so more responders can find it when they need it most.Support the showYouTube Channel For The Podcast

Dr. X graduated two years ago and joined his father's practice with the understanding that one day it would be his. But right now, he's paid a daily rate, produces a fraction of the revenue, and has no formal path to ownership. His dad, a 35-year veteran producing $1.5M a year, loves dentistry and isn't slowing down. Meanwhile, Dr. X is sitting in half-empty chairs, struggling to grow, and watching his vision for the future clash with his father's comfort zone. In this raw MyStory episode, Craig, Peter, and Ian unpack everything Dr. X is up against: a team that doesn't see him as the leader, a business that's built around one producer, and a mindset that's quietly holding him back. Craig shares his own painful experience navigating the same dynamic with his father and the fights that nearly destroyed their relationship. The conversation goes deep on knowing your numbers, building a vision bigger than yourself, and why the hardest conversation you'll ever have might be the one that changes everything. CASE STUDY: Second-generation dentist, two years out of school, working in his father's practice with no equity and no succession plan. $2.1M practice, dad produces $1.5M, Dr. X produces $400K, hygiene makes up the rest Paid a daily rate with no production-based compensation 7 to 8 operatories currently, 2 underutilized, only in-network with Delta 4 to 10 new patients per month, net growth is negative Dad is 68, estimates 6 years left, not looking to invest capital Dr. X wants 14 ops, associates, and $500K net without producing Team doesn't know the vision, dad doesn't share it, no alignment $500K at 20% profit margin = $2.5M collections, doable with current chairs at ~$310K per chair Biggest barrier isn't capacity, it's one honest conversation with dad about vision, price, and timeline DESCRIPTION The Bulletproof Dental Podcast Episode: 434 HOSTS:Dr. Peter Boulden,  Dr. Craig Spodak and Ian de Jongh GUEST: Dr. X MyStory is a new Bulletproof series where real dentists share their real story: what's working, what's not, and the questions they can't get answered anywhere else.

Visuals: https://getbehindthebillboard.com/episode-107-alice-goodrich Episode #107 features the wonderful, multi-talented Alice Goodrich from VCCP. We spent a lovely hour discussing Alice's county-level tennis career, her time as a Dior makeup artist, her stint as an internal comms assistant for the British Army and how she served as a stand-in for Gary Barlow of Take That. And incredibly, we found time to discuss her brilliant advertising career :-) We talked at length about Cadbury's Dairy Milk "Made to Share" campaign which is a huge favourite of ours. The campaign, which Alice wrote with Tom Lee, has won gongs galore and is currently running in your local super market. Just head for the choccy section, like Hugh did before the show, to see headlines on bars which double as mini billboards, the wrappers telling stories of everyday life where generous souls are deemed worthy of the largest share of the chocolate. At a basic level, it's a pack shot with a few words on, but once you start reading, you get pulled in. It's incredibly engaging, satisfying, more-ish … much like the chocolate inside. It feels redolent of the first Uncommon BA campaign (500+ executions) in that you just want to see more, being rewarded over and over with great writing. Other brands, clients and members of the public (and this podcast) have started doing their own versions of the wrappers. Once your idea has gone into modern culture, you know you're onto a winner. Huge congratulations to all involved at VCCP, and the team at BulletProof design. We also managed to squeeze in: Bournville, Johnnie Blonde, Dua Lipa, Alice's Dad, Tony Cullingham, Watford College, Wimbledon, Pavement art, Cannes Lions and a few tasty flapjacks.

Craig and Peter reflect on the early days of Bulletproof and the personal challenges that led to its creation, sharing raw insights into burnout, leadership struggles, loneliness, and the pressure of owning a dental practice. From feeling trapped in the operatory to navigating team breakdowns and personal crises, this conversation highlights the reality many dentists face but few talk about. HOSTS: Dr. Peter Boulden,  Dr. Craig Spodak and Ian de Jongh DESCRIPTION In this episode, Peter Boulden, Craig Spodak, and Ian open up about a topic rarely discussed in dentistry, mental health, burnout, and the hidden struggles behind success. The episode emphasizes the importance of community, mentorship, and changing inputs to shift outcomes. It also challenges the culture of comparison and social media "peacocking" that often deepens dissatisfaction in the profession. If you've ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, or alone in your journey, this episode is a reminder, you're not alone, and there is a path forward. TAKEAWAYS Dentistry has high rates of burnout, depression, and dissatisfaction Many dentists struggle in silence due to fear of showing weakness Social media comparison can amplify feelings of failure Community and mentorship are essential for growth and resilience Your inputs (environment, people, learning) determine your outcomes Leadership struggles often stem from internal challenges Success comes from learning new skills and changing perspectives Avoid making major decisions while in crisis Building the right circle can transform both business and life Growth requires both personal development and business strategy CHAPTERS 00:00 Introduction: The Hidden Epidemic in Dentistry 01:25 The Origins of Bulletproof: Strife and Struggling 03:21 The Power of Shared Experiences and Community 05:42 Peter's Personal Journey Through Burnout and Recovery 06:35 The Silence Men Keep About Mental Health 08:01 The Culture of Peacocking and Its Impact 09:45 The Role of Social Media and Validation 11:12 A Listener's Emotional Impact and Connection 12:12 The Load We Carry and Self-judgment 14:29 The Importance of Support Systems and Safe Spaces 16:13 Defining 'I Can't Do This' Moments 18:15 The Pain of Leading with Heart and Vulnerability 20:08 The Power of Community and Support in Healing 22:00 Stay in the Game: Resilience During Crises 24:31 The Role of Education and Personal Development 26:56 Seeking Advice and Modeling Success 28:49 The Value of Discerning Supportive Circles 30:28 The Importance of Authentic Community 31:33 Steps to Turn Things Around 34:42 The Power of Small Wins and Consistency 36:22 Ending: Resources and Hope for Dentists REFERENCES Bulletproof Summit Bulletproof Mastermind  

Jason “The Dragon” Lee - Underground Fighter | K.O.T.S. Champion | Professional Mixed Martial Artist | Peak Performance TC Colorado Jason Lee is a fierce competitor born from hardship and shaped by resilience. Raised in a turbulent family environment, Jason's early life took him through the rough neighborhoods of Charlestown and Lawrence, Massachusetts—places where struggle was part of the daily routine. Despite the chaos around him, Jason stood out as a gifted athlete, driven by a mantra he still lives by: “Ignore the pain, make the play.” At age 12, tragedy struck when he lost his older brother in a motorcycle accident. The loss shattered him, sending his life into a downward spiral that eventually led to a hard eight-year sentence in Colorado's state prison system—an experience he refers to as “gladiator school.” But prison didn't break Jason—it forged him. Upon release, he emerged as a changed man, both mentally and physically, committed to leaving his past behind. The one thing he carried with him was his passion for combat. Recognizing his natural talent and the discipline he'd developed behind bars, Jason redirected his energy into something positive: mixed martial arts. Jason then took fighting to the next level as a 2 Colorado State Champ Amateur, Sparta Undefeated Light Heavyweight World Champion, 2010 Colorado Fighter of the Year, 2015 Colorado Muay Thai Fighter of the Year, In 2024 Jason was inducted in the Sparta Sports and ENT Hall of Fame. Now a known force in the underground fighting circuit and a standout in King of the Streets (K.O.T.S.), Jason “The Dragon” Lee channels his past into every fight—fueled by grit, sharpened by pain, and driven by purpose.

Dr. Donnie bought his dental practice just 6 months ago, and he's already facing the challenges every new owner hits. In this raw and honest "MyStory" episode, Craig and Peter sit down with Dr. Donnie to unpack the real problems he's navigating as a first-time practice owner: arbitrary revenue goals with no math to back them up, two part-time associates who aren't pulling their weight, a rocky practice management software switch mid-transition, a team that says everything's fine but clearly isn't, and a leadership style that's more people-pleasing than people-leading.  The guys break it all down, from reverse-engineering his $3M dream with actual operatory data, to why his bonus system could quietly be killing his margins, to the hard truth about what it means to lead vs. manage a team you inherited.

Your home could be quietly stealing your IQ, disrupting your hormones, destroying your mitochondria, and triggering chronic disease, and most people never connect the dots. This episode gives you the full picture on toxic mold, and exactly what to do about it Learn More About The Superstratum Products Dave Uses At: https://superstratumlabs.com/products/dave Host Dave Asprey sits down with Seth Jones, CEO of Superstratum and the creator of the first patent-pending process to remove mycotoxins from homes. Before founding Superstratum, Seth spent 15 years as an international songwriter, producer, and DJ until a personal experience with Building-Related Illness changed the entire direction of his life. Today he and his team are on a mission to heal the estimated 66 million homes in the U.S. that create toxic conditions for the 170 million people living inside them. If toxic mold has derailed your health, your relationships, or your ability to think clearly, this conversation will change how you see your home forever. Dave Asprey built his entire biohacking and longevity career trying to fix what mold did to his body. By his mid-twenties, he carried diagnoses of arthritis, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, and mold-induced brain damage that wiped out his prefrontal cortex activity. Functional medicine doctors couldn't help him. Specialists gave up. It took him years of self-directed research into mitochondria, metabolism, and environmental toxicology to understand that his home was the root cause. He lost 100 pounds, reversed brain damage confirmed by imaging, and recovered IQ points he thought were gone for good. In this episode, Dave and Seth break down the real science of how mycotoxins poison mitochondria, hijack hormones, crush sleep optimization, and block the neuroplasticity your brain needs to perform. They reveal why mold is additive with every other toxin in your environment, why most remediation fails, and how a systematic home detox protocol can do what no supplement, nootropic, or fasting protocol can fix on its own. You'll Learn: Why mold toxins are direct mitochondrial poisons and what that means for your energy, willpower, and metabolism How mycotoxins lower your IQ by up to 15 points and why removing them reverses the damage The estrogen-mimicking mold toxin 10,000 times stronger than human estrogen that causes weight gain no diet can fix Why your AC and HVAC system are the most dangerous mold delivery systems in your home How mold disables detox pathways and makes every other environmental toxin worse The connection between toxic mold, Lyme disease, Alzheimer's, cancer, and fertility loss Why Danger Coffee and mold-free nutrition matter as much as fixing your home The step-by-step Superstratum protocol for fogging, bombing, coating, and restoring a healthy home microbiome How to salvage your belongings, treat your car, and avoid recontaminating a clean environment Thank you to our sponsors! - Suppgrade Labs | Grab your DAKE and Minerals 101 duo at shopsuppgradelabs.com and use code DAVEPOD for 15% off today - Superstratum Labs | Get Dave's exact home mold detox kit and save 10% at superstratumlabs.com/products/dave Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking.

The Fortress Strategy: Masterclass in Asset Protection with Aaron YoungAre you building a business on a solid foundation, or is your personal estate one lawsuit away from a total collapse? In this high-stakes episode, Scott Carson sits down with legendary entrepreneur and asset protection expert Aaron Young of Laughlin Associates. With over 50,000 clients and a 54-year legacy, Aaron reveals why simply filing for an LLC isn't enough to keep you safe. If you're a real estate or note investor, you're in a "professional space" where buying assets and raising capital makes you a target. Learn why "piercing the corporate veil" has become the most litigated issue in business law and, more importantly, how you can build a "corporate veil" so strong that even the most aggressive "ne'er-do-wellers" won't stand a chance.5 Key Topics Covered in This Episode:The Myth of the "Free" LLC: Many entrepreneurs believe that paying a state fee and getting an EIN means they are protected. Aaron explains that a true "corporate veil" is only created when you demonstrate to the law that your business is a separate entity, not just your "alter ego" or personal piggy bank.The Rising Tide of Litigation: Small business owners in the U.S. have a one-in-four chance of being sued in any given twelve-month period. With 93% of the world's litigation occurring in the U.S., "frivolous" lawsuits cost small businesses over $100 billion annually as people search for a "pot of gold" in your success.Critical Corporate Formalities: To maintain separation, you must treat your company like a real business. This means having a formal operating agreement, issuing actual membership certificates, maintaining a stock ledger, and holding regular board meetings—even if you are the only employee.The Danger of Single-Member LLCs: While popular, single-member LLCs are often treated as "disregarded entities". Aaron warns that these provide significantly less protection than two-member LLCs or C-Corporations because all liability often flows directly back to the sole owner.Separation as a Deterrent: The goal of advanced asset protection is to make yourself look "undesirable" to contingency-fee lawyers. By using strategies like Nevada holding companies and resident agent firms, you create a "labyrinth" that forces predators to either walk away or risk their own capital at $700 an hour rather than suing you for free.Conclusion: "I am not the company, and the company is not me". This simple mantra is the difference between long-term wealth and sudden financial ruin. As Aaron Young shared through his harrowing story of a random, devastating car accident, we never plan for the "what ifs," but they happen regardless. Whether it's a slip-and-fall on a job site or a disgruntled former employee, the world is full of risks. Don't wait for an "event-driven" wake-up call after you've already been sued. Take action today to organize your estate, follow the law—even the "stupid" parts—and ensure that the wealth you work so hard to build stays exactly where it belongs: with you.Get Signed Up For the Dallas Magnify Your Wealth Summit HERE!
