Have you ever been so deep in the day to day grind of building your business that you forgot why you started in the first place?It happens fast. You're chasing goals, answering messages, working on the next project, and trying to grow. Before you know it, your business is getting more of you than your health, family, relationships, and the life you're actually trying to create.In this special episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast, I'm coming to you straight from the Montana backcountry for our first ever Montana Mastermind hike and pod. No studio. No fancy setup. Just nature, good people, real conversations, and a chance to unplug from the noise.I sit down with my brother Michael Ballard, an entrepreneur and software development business owner originally from Sequim, Washington, who has spent the past eight years living in Stockholm, Sweden. Michael and his team work on mobile apps, websites, and AI implementations, helping bring technology driven ideas to life.But this conversation goes way beyond software and entrepreneurship.Michael shares why getting away from the computer and spending time in nature helps him zoom out and think about the bigger picture. When you're constantly caught in the tactics of running a business, it's easy to lose sight of what you actually want your life to look like.We talk about one of Michael's biggest pieces of business advice, do what you love. His belief is simple. It's incredibly difficult to become great at something you don't actually enjoy doing.We also get into personal growth and what it means to continually work on becoming a better man. Michael talks about following a virtuous path, getting clear on what you want from life, and making sure your daily actions line up with your ambitions.When it comes to health, Michael keeps things practical. Exercise matters, but nutrition is where he believes many people miss the mark. He focuses on getting quality nutrition, prioritizing protein, managing calorie intake, and maintaining a healthy weight.Then we talk money.Michael shares how consistently saving and investing helped give him something he didn't grow up with, financial security. Building a financial cushion gave him peace of mind knowing that even if his business stopped making money, he could still take care of his family.His advice is to start saving, understand what you're investing in, and give your money time to work for you.We also dive into spirituality and connection. Michael uses yoga, movement, prayer, visualization, and time away from devices to reconnect with himself and something greater. Rather than only sitting still to meditate, he finds connection through movement and intentionally stepping away from screens.One of the biggest themes of this conversation is something every entrepreneur needs to hear.You don't have to grind yourself into the ground to become successful.You don't have to sacrifice your family or the people you love just to build a bigger business.Business and money can create a foundation. They can give you freedom and flexibility. But the point is to use that freedom to spend time with people you love, do things you genuinely enjoy, get outside, have epic adventures, and actually live.A few takeaways from this episode:Do work you genuinely love. It's difficult to give your best to something you don't care about.Build financial security one step at a time. Saving and investing consistently can create more freedom and peace of mind for you and your family.Take your health seriously. Nutrition, protein, movement, and maintaining a healthy weight can have a massive impact on how you show up.Get away from your devices. Time in nature can help you step out of the daily tactics and reconnect with the bigger picture.Don't sacrifice your entire life for your business. Entrepreneurship should help create more freedom to enjoy your family, relationships, adventures, and the experiences that actually matter.As Michael puts it, “Living the dream.”We only get one life, Happy Hustlers. Build the business. Make the money. Take care of your health. But don't forget to actually enjoy the ride.If you're an entrepreneur who's been stuck in grind mode, this conversation is your reminder to zoom out, unplug, and reconnect with what you're really building all of this for.Listen to the full episode at https://happyhustle.com/podcast and keep Happy Hustlin'.What does Happy Hustlin' mean to you?For Michael happy hustlin' means you don't have to grind yourself into the ground.

I will see you at the ring!

The peculiar thing about attention deficit is that everybody seems to have it these days, whether they've earned it through proper diagnosis or simply absorbed it from an enthusiastic TikTok video filmed in someone's bathroom. What I've learned, from my own escapades, and partly through reading Peter Shankman's excellent book Faster Than Normal, is that whatever your brain does, you need to learn how to drive it. This conversation covers the four rules Shankman uses to turn a supposedly defective brain into rather useful equipment, none of which involve medication or particularly virtuous behaviour.

ADHD in women is far more complex than being distracted, forgetful, or unable to sit still. In this episode, Dr. Jolene Brighten, ND, author of ADHD and Women, breaks down how ADHD actually presents in women, why so many women are first diagnosed with anxiety or depression, and how estrogen, progesterone, dopamine, the menstrual cycle, pregnancy, postpartum, and perimenopause can influence symptoms. We explore executive dysfunction, time blindness, rejection sensitivity, procrastination, medication, hormone therapy, exercise, sleep, nutrition, caffeine, meditation, and practical strategies for working with an ADHD brain instead of constantly fighting against it. Ultimately, Dr. Brighten reframes ADHD not as personal failure, but as a different operating system that requires different tools to thrive.

He had it all. He had a suit and tie and an office on the 15th floor of the most recognizable building in Rochester, New York. Inside, though, Ben Albert was quietly miserable. Then the pandemic hit, and overnight he was laid off, broke, and officially "non-essential."In this raw and generous conversation, Ben takes us backstage to the months when he was lost. He talks about binge drinking, losing his father, his mother's illness, and doing morning affirmations with a twitching eye after a night with an empty bottle of whiskey. From that low point, he discovered a powerful idea: disintegration. He didn't need more habits. He needed to remove the ones muting his best self.Ben shares how a podcast called Rochester Business Connections turned into peers, mentors, and clients all at once. He also explains how he now guides podcasters to treat their show like a media business.In this episode, you'll discover:Why "shedding" is a necessary act before you rebuildDisintegration vs. integration: why removing bad habits can matter more than adding good onesThe 15-minute rule, about 1% of your day, and how small cuts compound into big changeHal Elrod's SAVERS morning routine (Silence, Affirmations, Visualization, Exercise, Reading, Scribing)The LinkedIn alumni strategy Ben used to land guests and build a business network from scratchWhy a podcast guest can be a peer, a local connection, a mentor, and a potential clientBuilding a Brand Bible: your "category of one," contrarian viewpoints, and contradictory valuesCase study: how the Rebel Roots podcast found its true audienceConnect with Ben Albert:

The Cubs have been a mostly lousy playoff team since they won the 2017 NLDS against the Nationals, and that didn't change this season. They spent less than 27 hours in the playoffs, got eight hits, scored one run and trailed for 17 of the 18 innings. So, if that doesn't make you want to listen to a half hour recap of this, what would?

We are sold a very modern checklist view of life. Get the degree. Get the job. Make good money. Be practical. Go on the trips. Exercise. Meditate. Do all the right things and somehow you are supposed to feel whole. But for some of us, even when we do a lot of that stuff right, there is still a longingness. There is still that quiet feeling that something is mismatched, that you are chronically behind, that there is something more you are supposed to do with your life.That is what made thinking about a doctorate feel so confusing to me. On paper, it looked irrational. More school. More uncertainty. Less money. Less approval. It looked like moving backward when I was supposed to be moving ahead. But the strangest part of adult life is that the checklist life does not fix that deeper ache. I do think some checklist things help. Exercise helps. Family helps. Doing the basics helps. But none of it fully resolves that deeper yearning if you are the kind of person who keeps searching for meaning, depth, truth, and a more genuine impression on the world. You can know not to pay attention to other people and still not fully know how to do it.So if you are in that exact same spot, wondering whether wanting a doctorate after a Master of Business Administration means you are foolish, I would say this. Maybe you are not making the stupidest choice of your life. Maybe you are finally being honest about the life that feels true to you. The hard part is that this feeling never fully goes away. There is no perfect checklist that wins the game. There is only trying to live your life as fully as you can, one day at a time, while remembering that even with the longingness, you may still be doing pretty well. Sometimes that is the real work. Not checking every box, but getting back up and trying again

Nutrition advice often reduces food to calories, nutrients, and a list of rules to follow. But the more we learn about how the body responds to different foods, the clearer it becomes that this way of thinking tells only part of the story. Today, I'm joined by cardiologist and public health expert Dr. Dariush Mozaffarian, director of the Food is Medicine Institute at Tufts University and author of the new book Food Is Medicine. We explore what we still get wrong about food and what changes when we begin treating it more like medicine. Here's what we discuss: Why eating less and exercising more may not lead to lasting weight loss, and what to focus on instead How to choose foods that work with your appetite, metabolism, and microbiome rather than relying on calorie counting What GLP-1 medications can teach all of us about hunger, cravings, and why weight isn't simply about willpower How much protein you actually need and why the source matters What the science says about seed oils and which processed foods are worth avoiding Over the years, I've learned to focus less on counting calories or chasing a single nutrient and more on the quality of the food itself. When you eat real, whole foods, the signals that regulate hunger and energy can begin to work with you instead of against you. Eating well should be less about following rules and more about understanding what helps your body function at its best.

Frozen shoulder (also known as adhesive capsulitis) can cause pain, stiffness and a significant loss of shoulder range of motion. In this episode, biomechanist Katy Bowman and biologist Dr Jeannette Loram explain what's actually happening inside the shoulder capsule during frozen shoulder. They discuss the different stages of the condition — including the freezing, frozen and thawing phases — as well as its connections with inflammation, menopause and diabetes.They also explore why movement matters for shoulder health, and during recovery from frozen shoulder. To understand how movement can affect the shoulder capsule, it's important to distinguish between movement in the shoulder and movement of the shoulder. Katy and Jeannette also look at everyday habits that may limit capsule movement and share some practical daily movements for maintaining shoulder mobility. Plus, they answer a listener's question about using hand paddles when swimming.Enhanced Show Notes and Full Transcript00:00 Why we're talking about frozen shoulder02:45 Dynamic Collective sponsors05:05 What is frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis)?14:28 Frozen shoulder, inflammation, menopause & other risk factors24:37 The freezing, frozen & thawing stages — and treatment29:16 Movement as prevention: moving in the shoulder vs movement of the shoulder33:00 Daily prehab & rehab movements37:22 Why, in this case, pain might be the way through40:58 Everyday shoulder habits: bags, carrying & asymmetry43:13 Should you swim with hand paddles? — listener question sponsored by ScreenFit™51:00 Your shoulder movement diet: climbing & clambering, hanging & “paint the globe”Research Mentioned Millar, N.

On today's episode, I'm joined by Kira Mackenzie Jackson, beauty and marketing expert, to discuss building standout brands, creating strong communities, and the evolving role of influencers in brand building. We dive into why consumers can be your best creators, affiliates, and referrers, how to identify and build around a hero product, and why brands should focus on becoming a leader within their category before expanding too quickly. Plus, she shares her approach to influencer marketing, why creators are increasingly becoming investors in the brands they promote, how to build a strong and opinionated team, and what it really takes to scale successfully in retail. We also talk about using AI to work more efficiently, building a career while being a mom, and why you don't have to do everything perfectly to be successful. Whether you're interested in beauty, entrepreneurship, influencer marketing, or what it really takes to build and scale a lasting brand, this episode is packed with practical insights and advice.

What if improving your wellbeing was far simpler than you thought? In this Doctor’s Desk episode, Justin and Kylie unpack a huge new scientific review published in Nature that analysed 183 wellbeing studies involving nearly 23,000 people worldwide. The conclusion? You don’t need the perfect routine, expensive programs, or hours of free time to feel better. You just need to do something. From exercise and mindfulness to yoga, gratitude, therapy, and simple self-awareness practices, the research shows that consistent small actions have a powerful impact on mental health and happiness. Justin and Kylie also share their own honest experiences of trying to prioritise wellbeing in the middle of busy family life. If you’ve been waiting for the “right time” to take care of yourself, this episode is your reminder that small steps still count. KEY POINTS: A major Nature study reviewed 183 wellbeing interventions Exercise combined with psychological support had the strongest results Mindfulness, gratitude, yoga, and compassion practices all improved wellbeing Consistency matters more than perfection Small actions done regularly can create major emotional shifts Parents don’t need hours of free time for self-care to work QUOTE OF THE EPISODE: “Don’t overthink the perfect wellbeing routine. Just do something.” RESOURCES MENTIONED: Nature systematic review and meta-analysis on wellbeing interventions Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) Mindfulness and positive psychology practices Boys: Building Strong Young Men from the Inside Out by Dr Justin Coulson ACTION STEPS FOR PARENTS: Choose one simple wellbeing habit you can realistically repeat this week Aim for consistency over intensity Pair movement with reflection, mindfulness, or connection Notice how you feel when you stop prioritising your wellbeing Give yourself permission to start small rather than waiting for perfect conditions See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Breast milk fountains have hit the runway and for someone who self-identifies as ‘not a fashion girlie’, Jessie Stephens has never been more on trend.Holly's algorithm has decided it’s time for her to bounce up and down in fitted lycra. We question if it’s ever okay to film during an exercise class and shared some lived experiences that could be used as evidence for why the answer to that question should be ‘no’.Plus, two years on, the ‘Cornell Seven’ case has been reopened. A civil lawsuit, a reopened investigation and a fraternity group chat have women around the world furious, and Jessie Stephens asks why this story has struck such a nerve. Please note, this segment discusses sexual violence.Also, one of the smartest women in the world has a problem with the phrase "I really love reading". We speak about whether ‘reading’ is a hobby and if Mary Beard has a point, or if this is snobby and purist, and puts up a barrier to entry for non-avid readers.

Fish Oil, Full-Spectrum Omega-3s, and Immunometabolism with Dr. Jeffrey Bland: Dr. Ronald Hoffman interviews Dr. Jeffrey Bland, founder of the Personalized Lifestyle Medicine Institute and Big Bold Health, about fish oil and omega-3 science. Bland recounts becoming involved with commercial fish oil in 1980 while promoting MaxEPA amid the “fat is bad” era and discusses Greenland Inuit research showing high omega-3 blood levels and low heart disease. They contrast whole-food omega-3 intake with highly refined EPA/DHA products, highlighting additional constituents in minimally processed oils (vitamins A and D, astaxanthin) and precursor compounds related to specialized pro-resolving mediators. Bland describes Omega-3 Rejuvenate's Alaska line-caught sourcing and low-heat, chemical-free processing, and addresses concerns about mercury, microplastics, and vitamin A dosing. The conversation also covers PLMI's focus on immunometabolism, a CBC-derived SIRI marker, omega-3 insufficiency data from Fullscript, mitochondrial membrane support by DHA, and Bland's upcoming book, “The Nourished Gene.”

Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Dr. Jeffrey Bland, founder of the Personalized Lifestyle Medicine Institute and Big Bold Health, about fish oil and omega-3 science.

How bad was the Cubs 8-0 loss to the Padres in game one of the Wild Card round? We started the RECRAP before the game was over so we could stop watching it. Petecrow struck out to start the game. Fernando Tatis hit the first pitch Matt Boyd threw for a homer (though Petecrow almost caught it) and if the game felt over at that ridiculously early moment, it really was. We look back at an awful game and try to figure out what the Cubs are going to do in game two.

The most effective way to reduce visceral fat is a combination of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and resistance training, though regular moderate-intensity cardio or aerobic exercise also helps, according to current research.In this episode of the “NASM CPT Podcast,” host Rick Richey unpacks the scientific evidence on exercise strategies for reducing visceral fat, addressing frequent confusion over whether HIIT or continuous moderate-intensity exercise is better. Citing several systematic reviews and meta-analyses, Rick explains that while some studies show no clear advantage between HIIT and steady-state cardio, many find that interval training, especially when extended beyond 12 weeks, provides superior reductions in visceral fat, particularly for individuals with overweight or obesity. He also highlights that progressive, combined training—mixing vigorous-intensity cardio with moderate or low-intensity resistance training—can further support visceral fat loss, which is particularly beneficial for at-risk groups such as older adults and postmenopausal women. Listeners will learn how to apply these research-backed exercise protocols for themselves or their clients, how to track progress, and why gradual progression is key, especially for those new to higher intensity workouts. This presentation also offers practical coaching insights on how to encourage clients to embrace challenging new routines. Chapters: 00:00 What is the most effective way to reduce visceral fat? 01:10 What is visceral fat and why does it matter for health? 02:26 How did a client respond to advice about losing visceral fat? 03:20 What exercise strategies can help reduce visceral fat? 05:22 Does high-intensity interval training work better than continuous cardio for visceral fat? 06:52 What does the research say about HIIT versus moderate-intensity exercise? 08:29 Are long-duration HIIT sessions more effective for fat loss? 09:18 Does exercise help reduce visceral fat in teens and young adults? 10:26 How does exercise dose relate to visceral fat loss? 12:29 Does combining resistance and aerobic training give better results for visceral fat? 13:56 How can trainers help hesitant clients start higher intensity workouts? 15:54 What extra benefits come with high-intensity training compared to moderate exercise? 16:41 Should you choose HIIT, resistance training, or regular cardio to help most people reduce visceral fat?

Most product-based business owners do their strategic planning late at night or in the car with ten spare minutes. Or they make a big list of everything that needs fixing and try to work on all of it at once. Either way, a few months go by and it's hard to tell whether the business is headed where you want it to go. In this episode, I walk you through a five-day exercise, about 30 minutes a day, that ends with one clear priority for your quarter and a plan to get there.In this episode, you'll learn:The two patterns that keep owners from planning — the Firefighter, who's too busy reacting to look up, and the Juggler, who makes a little progress in five directions instead of real progress in oneWhy looking back at the last 90 days, not the whole year, is the first step before you plan anythingHow to take your business temperature by rating your product line, your sales and marketing, and your systems and operations from one to five, and why your lowest score usually points to your biggest opportunityWhy you pick one priority for the quarter, not three or five, and the question that helps you choose itHow to break that priority into three monthly milestones and a first step small enough to take in the next 48 hoursHow LABS members are using the exercise to make real progress in their businessToday's episode is brought to you by Proof to Product LABS, our membership for product-based business owners who want to keep growing after the basics are in place.

Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with clinical pharmacist and nutritionist Jim LaValle about cardiovascular risk factors beyond total cholesterol.

Cholesterol Beyond the Basics: ApoB, Lp(a), Stress, and Aged Garlic Extract for Cardiovascular Risk: Dr. Ronald Hoffman interviews clinical pharmacist and nutritionist Jim LaValle about cardiovascular risk factors beyond total cholesterol, emphasizing that blood tests measure lipoprotein particles and subfractions rather than cholesterol itself. They discuss limitations of relying on surrogate markers, the role of lifestyle (diet, exercise, sleep, stress, glucose control), and advanced markers such as ApoB, Lp(a), oxidized LDL, and Lp-PLA2, noting that lowering Lp(a) or improving markers doesn't always improve outcomes. LaValle highlights ApoB as a key risk barometer, reviews evidence for aged garlic extract lowering ApoB, slowing coronary artery calcification, regressing vulnerable plaque, and improving vascular function, and supports combining supplements with appropriate medications. They address lean-mass hyper-responders on ketogenic diets, debate broad statin use in seniors, and cover stress/cortisol dysregulation, hormone effects, and appropriate use of GLP-1 drugs for weight and metabolic risk.

Have you ever been enjoying a bike ride along the riverfront, only for the trail to end abruptly? Good news! The city is planning to close some longstanding gaps along the Three Rivers Heritage Trail. Host Megan Harris, executive producer Mallory Falk, and creative producer Boen Wang explain which sections are getting extended (including a particularly harrowing stretch between the Strip District and Lawrenceville) and what it all has to do with a railroad company. Plus, we share beginner tips and tricks for braving the hills and exercising outdoors in Pittsburgh and recommend some events for the week ahead, including a trip into the Tim Burton-verse and storytime for adults. Notes and references from today's show: “City partners with CSX to connect, expand Three Rivers Heritage Trail” [

When we talk about osteoporosis, we often think about women, but men can develop osteoporosis too. And because it's frequently overlooked, many men don't discover they have a bone-health problem until after a fracture. In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Tom Forfa, a medical doctor who was diagnosed with osteoporosis at just 37 after experiencing 13 fractures in 10 years. His experience led him to investigate the underlying factors affecting his bone health and ultimately turn things around. We talk about why osteoporosis can be missed in men, potential risk factors including low testosterone, certain medications, malabsorption, alcohol, and lifestyle factors. We also discuss exercise, nutrition, bone density testing, bone turnover markers, physical therapy, and how men can be more proactive about their bone health. I hope this conversation helps you and the men in your life see osteoporosis differently. Don't panic, but don't ignore it. Ask why it happened, get informed, and take action.   "For men, there isn't an intense period of bone loss. It tends to be more gradual. Or for the vast majority, there's an underlying medical condition or a medication that's causing it, and that is often underlooked." ~ Dr. Tom Forfa   In this episode: [00:00] - Introduction: Osteoporosis in men [02:01] - Dr. Tom Forfa's 13-fracture osteoporosis story [05:10] - Why osteoporosis develops differently in men [07:53] - Major osteoporosis risk factors for men [14:01] - Exercise, nutrition, and medication for bone health [15:26] - Medical treatments and testing [23:27] - Misconceptions and patient mindsets [34:47] - When should men get a DEXA scan?

“Resistance training and protein are the new fountain of youth.” — Dr. Ian Smith  What changes about the way we should eat and exercise during menopause—and for all the decades that follow?  In this episode of AGE BETTER, I sit down with physician and bestselling author Dr. Ian K. Smith for a lively, practical conversation about his new book, The New Menopause Kitchen. We talk about the nutrients that become especially important during and after menopause, why he created a flexible 10-week eating plan, and how Rachael Ray's recipes turn those nutritional principles into real food you'll actually want to eat.  But this isn't just a conversation about food. Dr. Ian believes nutrition and exercise are a “one-two punch,” which is why the book also includes his Meno-Cise exercise plan—with a particular focus on maintaining muscle, protecting bone, and making movement doable and sustainable.  KEY LINKS  Read “The New Menopause Kitchen” by Dr. Ian K.

For many women, the wellness strategies that carried them through their 20s and 30s can start to backfire in perimenopause. Changes in hormones, muscle mass, insulin sensitivity, sleep, and stress can make midlife feel like a completely different metabolic landscape.In this episode of Metabolic Mind, Dr. Bret Scher speaks with nurse practitioner Cynthia Thurlow about why perimenopause can act like a metabolic stress test. They explore how midlife can change the way women respond to carbohydrates, fasting, exercise, meal timing, and other strategies they may have relied on for years.As Women's Health Month brings more attention to the health challenges women face across different stages of life, this conversation focuses on one that is still too often misunderstood: the metabolic transition through perimenopause and menopause.They cover:How perimenopause can affect insulin sensitivity and body compositionWhy preserving muscle becomes increasingly important in midlifeThe roles of sleep, stress, protein, meal timing, and strength trainingHow intermittent fasting may need to change across the menstrual cycle and menopauseWhen ketosis may help with metabolic symptoms, and why some women may benefit from more dietary flexibilityHow PMDD and severe PMS may relate to the perimenopause transitionWhere hormone replacement therapy may fit into an individualized planThe potential role of GLP-1 medications alongside lifestyle changesWhy fiber and the gut microbiome deserve more attention during menopauseSimple steps women can take now, including walking after meals, improving sleep, and staying well hydratedCynthia's message is that while midlife can bring meaningful metabolic and hormonal changes, with the right support, there are practical ways to adjust nutrition, exercise, sleep, and other strategies to support overall health and wellbeing.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of the Feed Your Soul with Kim Podcast we are returning to our roots as a podcast and talking about intuitive eating and movement. We explore the harmful mindset of using exercise as punishment for eating. We look at how diet culture connects food and movement in toxic ways. Lastly, how to shift toward a loving, intuitive relationship with your body and movement.In this Feed Your Soul with Kim episode we look at: 1)    How exercise as punishment destroys motivation to move2)    Reframing exercise as "movement" helps disconnect it from the calorie-burning, punishment mindset3)    4 questions to ask yourself about your relationship with food and exercise Time stamp:[0:00] Intro and episode overview: moving your body because you care for it vs. exercising to punish yourself[0:40] What it means to "burn off what you ate": the guilt-driven cycle of eating, feeling bad, and exercising to compensate[1:40] Why "exercise as punishment" makes us not want to move at all, the last thing to recover in eating disorder work is healthy movement[2:20] Reframing the question: "What would feel good for my body today?" instead of "How many calories do I need to burn?"[2:50] What today's episode covers: why we feel we need to burn off food, how exercise becomes punishment, the connection between movement/body image/diet culture, and how to move your body from a place of love[4:30] "What does it mean when exercise becomes punishment?" =common self-talk: "I was bad yesterday," "I can't skip my workout," "I don't deserve to eat unless I've exercised"[7:00] Why we feel we have to burn off what we eat: labeling foods as "bad," eating as something to compensate for, and the exhausting restrict → overeat → guilt → exercise → restrict cycle[10:50] Exercise and body image: how workout culture reinforces "paying the price" for how your body looks, and how this kills motivation to move[13:15] Shifting from "I need to fix my body" to "I love my body and want to feel good in it"[13:45] Reimagining healthy movement: asking what your body needs, what kind of movement you enjoy, and following what makes you feel strong (Kim's shift from HIIT to yoga and stand-up paddleboard)[15:50] The importance of rest as part of healthy movement, getting off the constant activity hamster wheel[16:45] Kim's personal story: not eating and then running in college, diet centers that tied food allowance to exercise, and how she healed her relationship with movement[19:20] The connection to intuitive eating: learning to trust your body again[20:00] Doables = questions to ask yourself:1. Why am I exercising right now? Am I doing it because I feel guilty about what I've eaten?2. What does my body really need or want; movement, rest, food, water, sleep, connection? And if movement, what kind?3. Can I remove food from this equation and disconnect physical movement from "paying the price" for eating?[22:00] Closing message: You don't have to earn your food, you don't have to punish yourself for eating, and you don't have to hate your body to take care of it. Movement is fun, it provides strength, energy, and stress relief. Please note this podcast is not a substitute for mental health therapy or seeing your physician.

Cliff is a registered clinical nutritionist, qualified naturopath and strength and nutrition coach who has been in clinical practice since the late 1990s, and he founded the Holistic Performance Institute. He and Mikki open with wearables — Cliff has swapped an ageing Oura ring for an under-mattress Withings sleep analyser — before getting into whether an already-active person really needs dedicated cardio, and why Mikki has deliberately upped her carbohydrate intake for running after years of being firmly in the low-carb camp.The second half is a careful working-through of the alcohol evidence. Cliff's central point is a distinction that often gets lost: the research supports the claim that there is no healthy dose of alcohol, but that is not the same as showing there is no safe dose. He walks through why all-cause mortality is the endpoint to start from, where the cancer data genuinely does look different, and why effect sizes at low intakes are small enough to be hard to interpret. Both are clear that alcohol is a toxin and neither is advocating that anyone start drinking. What they are arguing is that absolutist public health messaging that outruns the data erodes trust, and that time spent getting people active would do more good than telling them to drink nothing at all.Key TopicsCliff's move from an ageing Oura ring to a Withings under-mattress sleep analyser, what resting heart rate and HRV are and aren't useful for, and Mikki's 59-day Garmin step streak and how it endedThe one thing they openly disagree on: Cliff argues accumulated movement at varying intensities can make structured zone two largely redundant for an already-active person, while Mikki champions aerobic work in its own right and pushes back on messaging that walking plus lifting is all anyone needsWhy Mikki has substantially increased her carbohydrate intake around running after years of being low carb, and the difference she reports in running, recovery and appetiteCliff on the research he co-authored — habitually low-carb athletes benefit from carbohydrate during exercise to essentially the same extent as high-carb athletes — and early-2000s field research at a 24-hour mountain bike event where athletes needed far more per hour than the then-accepted 60 g glucose and 90 g glucose-fructose ceilingsThe distinction the episode turns on: no healthy dose of alcohol is not the same claim as no safe dose, and why the Zhao 2023 meta-analysis is often read as saying the secondWhere the cancer data does look different, how relative risk and absolute risk come apart, and why a 5% relative increase can mean very little in absolute termsConfounding, residual confounding and abstainer bias — why abstainers can look worse in the data until you account for who stops drinking and whyGuardrails rather than prohibition: Cliff's dozen beers a month, what he used to tell clients, and why zero-tolerance messaging that diverges from the data erodes trust and tends to fail in clinical practiceCongeners, drink type and individual response, including why some people react differently to whiskey than to vodka — and why no spirit gets you out of a hangover at doseLinchpin behaviours: why both land on physical activity as the thing most worth people's limited attention, and Cliff's case for mindfulness as an effective non-diet interventionChapters00:00 Introduction03:07 Wearables, sleep tracking and step streaks10:38 Does everyone need dedicated cardio15:40 Running, mobility and upping carbohydrate18:31 Carbohydrate during exercise and low-carb dogma28:45 Alcohol guardrails and personal limits33:10 Mortality versus single disease endpoints38:51 Cancer risk, relative and absolute47:29 Confounding, abstainer bias and patterns58:46 Drinking culture and absolutist advice1:07:43 Drink type, congeners and sleep1:13:35 Linchpin behaviours and what matters most1:18:19 Take-homes, recommendations and outroGuest / ResourcesCliff Harvey PhDWebsite: cliffharvey.comHolistic Performance Institute: holisticperformance.instituteInstagram: @cliffdoggydogCliff is a registered clinical nutritionist, a qualified naturopath, and holds a diploma in fitness training and health coaching in patient care. He has over 20 years' experience as a strength and nutrition coach and has been in clinical practice since the late 1990s. His PhD research was in ketosis and ketogenesis, and Mikki helped supervise part of that pathway. In the episode he mentions that a full review on alcohol and mortality was due to go up in the Holistic Performance Institute's database of living review articles.Studies and research discussedZhao et al. (2023), Association Between Daily Alcohol Intake and Risk of All-Cause Mortality: A Systematic Review and Meta-analyses, JAMA Network Open. The meta-analysis at the centre of the conversation, drawing on 107 studies. Cliff's reading is that it shows no healthy dose, but does not establish that there is no safe dose.Health effects associated with alcohol consumption: a Burden of Proof study, Nature Health (2026). Referenced as looking at disease risk rather than mortality.Sarich et al. (2026), Alcohol-attributable cancer risk and burden estimates for Australia's updated alcohol consumption guidelines, British Journal of Cancer. This is the paper Mikki reads figures from during the episode. It reports that for every additional ten drinks per week, the risk of all cancers combined increased by 5%.The 45 and Up Study — the large Australian cohort (over 225,000 participants) that the above cancer analysis draws on, and the source of the absolute risk figures Mikki looks up live.Mendelian randomisation research on alcohol and risk, referred to in general terms rather than as a specific named study.Research on abstainer bias, which Cliff attributes to earlier work by Zhao and colleagues preceding their 2023 meta-analysis.Zinn, Harvey et al. (2023), Exercise and sports performance, a chapter in Ketogenic: The Science of Therapeutic Carbohydrate Restriction in Human Health (Elsevier). The chapter Cliff co-wrote with Caryn Zinn, and the source of his point about low-carb athletes benefiting from carbohydrate during exercise.Cliff also refers to research on Mediterranean diet and drinking patterns, on physical activity as protective against alcohol-related mortality risk, and on mindfulness as a non-diet intervention. These were discussed in general terms and no specific papers were named.People mentionedDr Eric Helms — teaches on the Holistic Performance Institute ...

If you could only run one lab test to figure out what's going on in your body, which one should it be? I used to make the same mistake many functional health practices still make: cherry-picking lab tests based on whichever symptoms are loudest. If you have irregular cycles, it seems logical to test hormones first, but that's like cleaning trash out at the bottom of the river without ever looking upstream at where it's coming from. In this episode, I'll explain why the gut sits upstream of nearly everything, and why hormones, thyroid, adrenals, mood, immune health, and even hair thinning can all trace back to it. That's why, if you can only start with one test, I believe a GI map gives you the best bang for your buck, whether or not you have loud digestive symptoms. I'll share what my own first GI map uncovered, from SIBO to H. pylori to low digestive enzymes, and why gut health is about so much more than bloating and bathroom habits. We'll also talk about what comes next once your gut is on the right track, including how we decide between options like a DUTCH test, an HTMA, an MRT, or deeper blood work. At the end I'll walk through why that next step looks different for every person, based on budget, symptoms, and how your body responds to gut improvements. If you want a personalized roadmap for your labs, this episode will point you in the right direction and show you where to start.

We take the keys away from older drivers—why not older doctors? Nearly 3 in 4 Americans battling this health problem—fatigue! What super-agers over 100 have in common—a hyper-vigilant immune system guarding against cancers and infections. How does “anabolic resistance” contribute to frailty—and what to do about it? Recurrent bouts of “burning sensations” on the face—diagnosis please?

Deadline looms for ban on hemp-derived CBD/THC products—while legal pot proliferates; Scientists disclose IBD benefits of urolithin A; “Dry-fasting” is a new fad—is it healthy? Short “exercise snacks” to break up prolonged inactivity benefit attention and cognition; Kimchi and designer probiotics show promise for flushing out microplastics; LSD soon to be approved as a prescription for anxiety.

Dr. Abbie Smith-Ryan explains how muscle quality changes in perimenopause and how HIIT, heavy lifting and protein timing help women over 40 train smarter. In perimenopause, muscle can shift from a lean "filet" toward a "rib eye," with more fat and connective tissue inside it, and a DEXA or InBody can't detect it. Dr. Abbie Smith-Ryan explains why heavier, higher power training recruits the type 2 fibers that fade with age, how 1 minute on, 1 minute off HIIT appears to reduce visceral fat in as little as three weeks, why fat burning is not fat loss, and when about 20g of protein before training helps. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN Why muscle quality, not just muscle size, may change first in perimenopause How 1 minute on, 1 minute off HIIT targets visceral fat in midlife women Why fat burning during zone 2 is not the same as fat loss When training fasted costs you results, and when it does not TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Intro: Muscle Quality in Perimenopause and Why a DEXA Can't Measure It 06:31 - How to Train for Muscle Quality After 40: Heavy Load, Power and Type 2 Fibers 10:13 - HIIT and Visceral Fat in Midlife Women: The 1 Minute On, 1 Minute Off Protocol 16:01 - The 30 Minute Heavy Lifting Protocol, the Norwegian 4x4 and Where Zone 2 Fits 25:38 - Fasted vs Fed Training for Women 40+: Protein Before or After Exercise 37:58 - Losing Leg and Glute Definition, HRT and Why Your Symptoms Are Valid 44:28 - Fiber, Omega-3s and Creatine Dosing for Muscle and Brain in Perimenopause 54:05 - Perimenopause Is a Metabolic Transition: Final Advice VALUABLE RESOURCES Effects of high-intensity interval training on cardiometabolic risk factors in overweight/obese women, Journal of Sports Sciences (Smith-Ryan et al.
