What if the biggest obstacle standing between you and your best health isn't lack of time, but the way you approach it? Today's guests, Ryan Williamson and JP Newman, are here to break down why so many entrepreneurs are sabotaging their health without even realizing it—and it's not because of lack of effort or willpower. The problem is deeper than that.  Ryan, a neurologist with a background in the U.S. Navy, shares why entrepreneurs tend to ignore sleep, stress, and the mental side of health, even though optimizing these areas can skyrocket both performance and longevity. As the founder of Transcend Health Group, Ryan helps people take control of their mental and physical well-being using evidence-based practices. JP Newman, a seasoned entrepreneur with a background in real estate and a passion for performance, understands the demands of business and how health often takes a backseat. He's here to share his personal experience with optimizing health for busy professionals, and why making it a priority can be a game-changer. We also explore the rise of biohacking, where everyone is an expert, but few actually have the credentials or real science behind them. Tune in to learn how to optimize your health in a way that enhances every area of your life, and discover why purpose, sleep, and smart habits are the true keys to success.  — This episode is part of the 8FE (8-figure entrepreneur) series, where we talk to entrepreneurs who have already passed the million-dollar mark.  — Key Takeaways: 00:00:00 Intro 00:01:59 Who to listen to relative to health? 00:09:22 Entrepreneurs and biohacking 00:12:19 Longevity, lifespan, and healthspan 00:19:41 Genetic testing and longevity 00:25:57 Interpreting health data and resolving health problems 00:32:23 How to sleep better as an entrepreneur? 00:45:15 Sleep aids and supplements 00:53:49 Practical approaches to sleep and health 01:03:47 Neuroplasticity and stress management 01:10:13 High-impact health activities 01:13:41 Sauna or cold plunge? 01:16:13 Resources and outro — Additional Resources:

In this episode, I'm talking with Rick Yarosh, PA-C—entrepreneur, business owner, and fellow clinician who's thinking light-years ahead when it comes to healthcare, AI, and burnout.

When I first started D2 Branding, the #1 thing I was tracking was my revenue! After all, we are in business to make money, which lets us make an impact on those we love. My goal was to reach $100,000 a month and become a MILLION DOLLAR BUSINESS! That sounded so great! Once we hit that goal, I was so excited but also confused on why I didn't have extra money in the account. The problem: my expenses were way too high!   Instead of tracking revenue you need to also track net profit, which is your most important number! How much money are you making after all of your expenses are paid?   There are also many key KPIs to track like the lifetime value of a customer. How long are your customers staying with you? Do they leave after the first transaction or are you able to retain them for years? This is a big indicator on the return on investment for the cost to acquire them. If you lose money the first month you acquire them but make money over the next 12 months, it is worth it!   Check out the latest episode of the DO IT MY WAY Podcast where I share the key performance indicators you should be tracking.

You're growing your business, but is your marriage growing with it?In this special conversation, Sarah and I sat down with Christa Hardin—licensed therapist, Enneagram expert, and host of The Enneagram + Marriage Podcast—to share the behind-the-scenes story of how we almost separated just months after launching Triad.

Therapy Isn't a Sign of Struggle, It's a Sign of StrengthWhat started as a tough talk in Napa turned into weekly therapy that helped Brad and Sarah reconnect—and gave their kids a model of what healthy relationships look like. Therapy isn't a weakness. It's what showing up really looks like. #2.) Hire an EA Who Manages Life, Not Just BusinessMost entrepreneurs use their EA for scheduling. Brad uses his to protect his marriage. By looping Sarah into calendar decisions, they built a system that prevents business from overrunning family and stops resentment before it starts.#3.)

Why Is Everyone So Passive, Soft And Weak?

In this episode of The Self-Employed Life, I had the pleasure of speaking with Katie Keller Wood, Montessori educator, TEDx speaker, and author of the upcoming book Alignment: A Montessori Approach to Reimagining Work-Life Balance. We challenge the myth of work-life balance and instead explore the powerful metaphor of a life mosaic—how different aspects of our life can align without rigid separation. Katie shares how purpose-driven work, often viewed with guilt or skepticism, can actually be a vital source of personal meaning and fulfillment. She draws from Montessori principles in order to emphasize the importance of not losing oneself in their meaningful work, but instead cultivate awareness, alignment, and joy in all areas of life. This episode is for anyone wanting to do their purpose work and create a meaningful life without burning out.   Dr. Katie Keller Wood grew up in the world of education, and delights in helping people find new ways of thinking about the world. Discovering Montessori education, both as a pedagogy and a philosophy, was pivotal for her, and she is on a mission to bring a Montessori perspective of work to everyone.    Katie has had the great honor of working with hundreds of middle and high school Montessori teachers from all over the world through the training program she runs, called CMStep. She is recognized as a leader in Montessori programming for adolescents and adults. Any given semester might find Katie teaching undergraduates at the University of Virginia, where she earned both her bachelor's and her doctorate degrees, master's students at Xavier University, or doctoral students at the University of Wisconsin-River Falls. She is active in the Montessori research and teacher education communities.    Katie does her work because she believes that a more peaceful, just, equitable, and sustainable world is possible, and that it takes all of us leading our aligned lives to bring this world forward. Katie lives in Richmond, Virginia, and is a TEDx and keynote speaker and a sought-after presenter for workshops and conferences. Alignment: A Montessori Approach to Reimagining Work-Life Balance is her first book.     Guest's Contact – Linedin Website Book Contact Jeffrey – JeffreyShaw.com Books by Jeffrey Shaw Business Coaching for Entrepreneurs Watch my TEDx LincolnSquare video and please share!
