Most energy drinks trade your long-term health for a short-term jolt. This episode breaks down a smarter approach to energy, one that builds mitochondria function, supports gut health, stabilizes mood, and helps you sleep better at night, all without the crash -Get 15% off your next order at: https://getmte.com/dave Host Dave Asprey sits down with Jeff Boyd, founder and chairman of MTE (More Than Energy), the caffeine-free energy drink built around adaptogens, nootropics, and prebiotics that delivers what Boyd calls "energy that loves you back." Before launching MTE, Jeff spent 15 years as President and co-owner of Luggage Free, scaling the company to operations in over 100 countries before selling it in 2019. He brings the operational discipline of a veteran entrepreneur and the personal conviction of someone who built the energy product he actually wanted to exist. Dave and Jeff get into the full science and strategy behind MTE's ingredient stack, including paraxanthine, ashwagandha, eleuthero, maca, GABA, theanine, and saffron, and why each one was chosen for its role in stress response, brain optimization, and sleep optimization. They also dig into the formulation challenges of building a clean-label supplement over a stimulant base, the real difference between caffeine and its downstream metabolite paraxanthine, and why this blend functions more like a foundational biohacking protocol than a beverage. You'll Learn: Why conventional energy drinks wreck your cortisol curve and what to do instead How paraxanthine delivers the benefits of caffeine without the jitters or sleep disruption The adaptogen trio (ashwagandha, eleuthero, and maca) and how they work together for stress response and human performance Why saffron is one of the most underrated nootropics for mood and brain optimization How gut health and the microbiome connect directly to your energy, metabolism, and longevity The mitochondria connection between willpower, physical performance, and entrepreneurial output How AI is reshaping small teams and what founders need to do right now to stay competitive Why the cleanest path to anti-aging and longevity starts with how you manage your energy across the day Thank you to our sponsors! - Beyond Wonderland Conference | Oct 13 - 14, 2026.

Hey friends, Chase here Jeff Boyd is on the show today, and this conversation is about building the kind of life and business that does not always look like the predominant story on the internet. Jeff is the founder and chairman of MTE, More Than Energy, which he describes in this episode as "an energy that loves you back." Before that, he spent 15 years as the President and co-owner of Luggage Free, where he expanded global operations to more than 100 countries before selling the company in 2019. What I loved about this conversation is that it is not the usual story about chasing the next app, raising venture capital, or building something because the internet told you that is what entrepreneurship is supposed to look like. This is a conversation about physical products, unsexy businesses, competition, fatherhood, leadership, and what it means to keep choosing hard things on purpose. Jeff says it plainly right at the top: "That's why I tell my team all the time. They just look at me and I'm like, if it were easy, everybody be doing it. We got to do what nobody else is willing to do, and then you're going to be happy we did it. And I tell them that I'm like, oh yeah, this is hard. And I'm excited about it. Because now that's an opportunity for us because we'll outwork anybody." That idea is at the center of this episode. We talk about the grind of building something real, why curiosity matters more than credentials, what sports teach us about business, why leadership is not about personality type, and how the best things in life often come down to loving the process instead of obsessing over the outcome. Why This Conversation Matters Right Now Most of the entrepreneurs and creators we see online are building in public, building digitally, or building something that looks like the current version of what the internet rewards. There is nothing wrong with that, but it is not the only path. In this episode, I say: "A lot of folks I know in the audience feel a pressure to make their businesses walk and talk and look like the creators and the entrepreneurs that see out there in the world, which is one of the reasons I want to start celebrating some people who are building really successful lives, careers." That is why I wanted to have Jeff on the show. He built and sold a shipping business. Now he is building a physical product in the health and wellness space. He is not chasing the obvious thing. He is not trying to make his work look like everyone else's. Jeff's path is a reminder that there is a whole world of entrepreneurship outside the digital-first story. There are products, services, local businesses, physical goods, retail shelves, manufacturing problems, customer conversations, teams, families, and real-life constraints. And sometimes, that is where the opportunity is. What We Explore in This Episode Jeff's early business story and how he became employee one at a shipping company before helping grow it around the world. The "answer is yes" mindset that helped Luggage Free expand into all 50 states and more than 100 countries. Why physical products are different and what changes when you are building with atoms instead of bits. The origin of MTE and why Jeff wanted to build "an energy that loves you back." What it means to enjoy the grind when the work is hard, relentless, and full of problems you do not know how to solve yet. Fatherhood, presence, and time and why Jeff says he is "so all in now" with his family. Competition, sport, and business and why Jeff still trains and competes as a long jumper. Leadership and authenticity and why Jeff says people do what you do, not what you say you do. Second and third career arcs and what Jeff has learned about zooming out, building teams, and letting people play the right roles. The Core Idea: If It Were Easy, Everybody Would Be Doing It One of the strongest threads in this conversation is Jeff's relationship with hard things. He is not pretending the grind is glamorous. He says straight up that building physical products, selling through retail, and getting people to care is hard. But he also sees that difficulty as part of the opportunity. "You know I some of this stuff I think the harder it is, the better for me. For sure. You want, you want to bear. People are going to be like, oh, I don't have the guts to do this. That's right. Yeah. And then the ones that do, that's a that's another level, right? That's another fence they cleared. But then it's like, okay, well now you did that. But are you ready to grind now because it's a grind." That is the mindset that shows up again and again in the episode. The point is not that everything should be hard for the sake of being hard. The point is that difficulty can reveal where other people quit. That is true in sport. It is true in business. It is true in building a family, a product, a brand, a company, or a body of work. The Answer Is Yes Jeff's first major business story starts with Luggage Free. At the beginning, the company was taking orders by hand and trying to get the phone to ring. Then the first real call came in. "Anyway, so we're trying to get the phone to ring so we can handwrite our orders. And the first call, the guy, you know, we're all. It was kind of like a movie. We're all like, you know, hushed around him, waiting, you know, hearing him, he's like, oh, I'm sorry, we don't serve. North Carolina hangs up. And we were like, oh, dude, Gary, of course you serve anybody." That moment became a kind of operating philosophy: "And I was like, from now on, the answer is yes. Like whatever anybody says answered yes. And with that really that charge? Yeah. We were quickly in all 50 states and we grew to 109 countries throughout the world. And it was always in response to a call." There is something powerful in that. Not because saying yes is always the right answer, but because early in a business, the market often tells you where to go before your strategy deck does. Someone calls. Someone asks. Someone has a need. Someone gives you a clue. The question is whether you are willing to follow it. Building Something You Can Hold After selling Luggage Free in 2019, Jeff had time and space. He was not rushing into the next thing. He was riding his bike, playing tennis, spending time with his family, and looking for what might call him next. What called him was not another service business. It was a physical product. "And so in 19 sold it 2019, 2019 were operating all over the world, offices all over and sold it and was kind of free to at that point, I was like, all right, I want to like what I loved about it was the challenge and the fun and the competition. Right. You're building, you're competing." He continues: "But I what I yearn for was a product and something that was tangible I could actually hold right and do a different scent or a different flavor or different size or different color, whatever." That desire eventually became MTE. Jeff had been trying to solve his own energy problem, stacking supplements, chasing better mood, better energy, and better performance, until he realized the pieces were not working together. "And I realized I was like, Frankenstein. I mean, like, we were talking about it last night, like piling all these supplements together to try and make yourself feel better, even even like ten supplements, which doesn't sound that bad. Shit. Crazy. Yeah. We'll be like a suitcase full when you're traveling, you know?" MTE came from that search. "So we built it's an energy that loves you back. Right. Like an energy drink that loves you back. Yeah. Right. So you get prebiotics and caffeine free blend. That's better than caffeine. Yeah. So now you're getting energy that feels great that you can trust. Sure. And no jitters, no crash, no impact on sleep." Curiosity, Thrill, and Figuring It Out One of my favorite parts of this conversation is when Jeff talks about starting something in a category where he did not have obvious experience. He had not built beverage brands before. He was not a chemist. He was stepping into a new world. His answer was not fear. It was curiosity. "Yeah. Like, I like hair on fire. Like, let's go figure this out." Then he gets to the larger point: "I like it's curiosity and thrill. And that's what it boils down to. Right. Like, I think you you like that's what entrepreneurship is. It's solving problems and and finding solutions to things. Even if you've done it 20 times, they're going to be solutions that need to be had in the evolving world and landscape in which we operate." That is entrepreneurship in a sentence. You do not get to know everything before you begin. You do not get a guarantee that the answer is obvious. You get a problem, a question, a changing landscape, and the chance to learn fast enough to keep moving. Jeff says: "But that's why I love it. I think if, if we boil it down, I love the curiosity that that is necessary to just because you're like, I don't know the answer to that. Instead of that overwhelming me or said of panicking, I'm going to go learn because I'm sure there's more than one answer. We'll figure out. Maybe we'll triangulate, figure it out. Yeah, get to a solution. And and then we'll know for next time. And then we'll be able to iterate and make it better. And on it go. Like I love that process." You Have to Love the Process The conversation moves from business into fatherhood, sport, and the shape of a life. Again and again, we come back to process. Jeff says it directly: "Yeah. You have to love the process, right? And I think that's true of anything, particularly in stuff like that where it's easy to focus on the outcome. I'm lose 20 pounds, I'm going to whatever it is, I'm going to get this promotion, you know. And then I think what happens is then the outcome just naturally happens because you love the process." This applies to entrepreneurship, training, parenting, leadership, and creative work. If you are only trying to reach the finish line, you miss the life that happens while you are getting there. Jeff connects that idea to family: "Like the time is fleeting, right? For whatever it is. And you really have to enjoy the journey because, you know, like, I look at things like, if it's a line that's made up of just millions and millions of dots, and those dots would represent any given period in time." He continues: "Right. College graduation, high school graduation. They get married like whenever it is. You've decided that they've you've set them free. The that point will just be one of hundreds of millions of points that made up the line. Yeah. So, you know, looking and it's kind of the same with like a business, right. Like if you're just all you want to do is sell the business, you're just focused on that. You're going to miss all these hundreds of millions of, of experiences or anything else, right?" Competition Brings Out the Best in People Jeff is still a competitive long jumper. He talks about master's track, world records, regional meets, and the way competition gives him purpose. That competitive lens shows up in business too. "I love it, I love it, I think I think I love to compete. Like I was just telling my buddy the other day, like, I don't like when he's fine, but I hate losing, which is weird, right?" Then he goes deeper: "So I just love the competition, and I love the process that goes into it. And having, you know, so being able to have a purpose and go in and compete and I love competing. Sure. I just think it brings out the best in people." For Jeff, sport is one vehicle for competition, but not the only one. Business is another. "Sports is just a vehicle to compete. Right. So is it the competition like because it brings the best out in you or why do you like it. Yeah, I think I think just that it's the vehicle for sports. Sure. So I like it as an umbrella. I love it in the business." He talks about the shipping company in that same frame: "Like even the shipping company I had towards the end, I was I didn't have a lot of passion for it, but I had, you know, a very competitive space and there were upstarts in the industry and you're like, all right, well, these guys are trying to take my lunch money, you know, like, right. Not on my watch." Leadership Means Leading From the Front When I ask Jeff what is required of leadership, his answer is simple: "Got to lead from the front, I think. Right. I mean, yeah, it's people do what you do, not what you say you do." He adds: "I think you need to be genuine too. Yeah. Right. Like, if you're, if you're genuine and authentic, I think people are more prone to get in line and buy in and say, I'm, I'm, I'm subscribing to what? You're where you're leading me again." That is an important distinction. Leadership is not just having followers. It is not having the loudest voice in the room. It is not projecting certainty at all times. It is what people see you do. It is the consistency between your words and your behavior. It is whether the people around you believe that the thing you are asking from them is something you are willing to model yourself. Nobody Does It Alone Later in the conversation, Jeff talks about what he has learned in this newer chapter of his life and career. One lesson is the importance of zooming out. Another is the myth of the lone genius. "And then the other thing I've learned is you like, nobody does it alone. Right? I mean, that's like total myth. Yeah. The myth of the lone wolf. The lone genius. Yeah. It's, you know, you need a you need a whole group of people that are going to bring ideas that you would have never thought of. They're going to execute your ideas that you do have." He continues: "Right? They're going to they're just they're going to champion for you in ways that you never even knew needed to be championed. You know, I mean, all the things you need a you need a great team and you need to find." That is a hard-earned lesson for builders. The bigger the thing you are trying to create, the less likely it is that you can muscle your way through alone. You need ideas you would not have had. You need people who can execute. You need people who can challenge you, support you, and help you see what you are missing. Role Players Matter One of the most useful leadership ideas in this episode is Jeff's realization that not everyone on a team has to be an all-star. "And the other thing I talk about all the time is it's you have to resist the urge to demand that everybody in your team is an all star, right? Like even the greatest sports teams have role players, and they have guys that sit on the bench to get the starters ready for the playoffs." He explains what he learned: "But they don't, you know, they're they're effectively benchwarmers. But they have a role in the team. And you have a trainer and you have a coach and assistant coaches and all. You know, it's it's the whole organization." That perspective changed the way he thought about people and teams: "That was difficult for me earlier on. I, I just felt like everybody had to be an all star. If you're not at all star, you're you're like, I'm failing you or you're failing me. And either way, you got to go. You know, we're going to get somebody else in here." The lesson is not to lower standards. It is to understand roles. Great teams are not built by pretending everyone is supposed to contribute in the same way.

What is the "non sexy" opportunity I might be overlooking because it does not look cool online? Where could "the answer is yes" help me learn faster? What hard thing am I avoiding that might actually be the opportunity? What problem do I not know how to solve yet, and who could help me triangulate an answer? Where am I too focused on the outcome and missing the process? What part of my life is made up of "millions and millions of dots" that I need to appreciate now? Am I leading from the front, or only telling people what I value? Where am I expecting everyone to be an all-star instead of building a real team? What would it look like to zoom out and find the North Star again? A Simple Practice for Builders Here's something practical you can do this week. Pick one hard thing in your work or life that you have been treating as a sign to stop. It might be a distribution problem, a hiring problem, a creative problem, a sales problem, a health problem, or a relationship problem. Then sit with Jeff's line: "Oh yeah, this is hard. And I'm excited about it." Do not use that line to pretend the hard thing is easy. Use it to reframe what the hard thing might be showing you. It may be pointing to the part where other people quit. It may be pointing to the skill you need to build next. It may be pointing to the person you need to ask, the rep you need to take, or the process you need to fall in love with again. The work is not always to find an easier road. Sometimes the work is to become the kind of person who can walk the hard one with more purpose. Final Thought This episode is a reminder that business is not only about scale, speed, funding, or hype. It is also about curiosity, grit, family, physical products, role players, clean energy, long jumps, retail shelves, hard conversations, and the willingness to keep learning when you do not already know the answer. Jeff's story is not about avoiding the grind. It is about choosing the right grind. It is about building something thoughtfully, leading from the front, and staying close enough to the process that the outcome has room to take care of itself. Until next time: do what nobody else is willing to do, and love the process enough to keep going.

Mesmo com mais mulheres no mercado de trabalho, a desigualdade salarial no Brasil continua aumentando. Dados do 5º Relatório de Transparência Salarial e Critérios Remuneratórios, divulgado pelo Ministério do Trabalho e Emprego (MTE) mostram que mulheres recebem, em média, 21,3% a menos que os homens no setor privado. Tania Cristina Teixeira, presidenta do Conselho Federal de Economia (Cofecon), explica que a qualidade de inserção de mulheres no mercado vai além da quantidade de empregos.
Full Show Notes: https://bengreenfieldlife.com/dadprotocol What does it take to show up as a strong, present, and resilient father in a world that gives most men no clear blueprint? In this episode with John Schott, you’ll explore why so many dads feel depleted, distracted, and unsupported, and how that ties directly to poor recovery, low energy, and lack of structure. You’ll also discover how simple systems built around circadian rhythms, movement, hydration, and family routines can restore your physical edge while improving patience, focus, and leadership at home. This conversation goes beyond surface-level advice, exploring what truly shapes a man's identity and why the way he shows up as a father and leader ripples into his family and our broader culture. John Schott is a bodyworker, wellness practitioner, and founder of the Conscious Dad Protocol, a system designed to help men optimize their physical health, emotional resilience, and leadership within the family unit. With years of experience in fascia work, recovery techniques, and holistic living, John combines ancestral principles with modern strategies to create practical systems that support both performance and presence. Through his work, he focuses on helping fathers build stronger bodies, clearer minds, and deeper connections with their families while navigating the demands of modern life.

Full Show Notes: https://bengreenfieldlife.com/nadplus In this fascinating episode, Dr. Nichola Conlon, molecular biologist and founder of Nuchido, breaks down what NAD actually is, what it does inside your cells, and why most popular strategies for boosting it, including NAD IVs, patches, and high-dose NR or NMN, may be fundamentally flawed based on molecular biology. You’ll discover why NAD declines by half every 20 years, why the NAMPT enzyme and not a shortage of raw material is the real bottleneck, and why flooding the body with precursors without fixing the salvage pathway can actually strain your methylation pathways rather than raise NAD. You’ll also explore how inflammation through the cluster of differentiation 38 (CD38) enzyme silently drains NAD faster than almost anything else, what a gold standard double-blind placebo-controlled crossover clinical trial on Nuchido TIME+ actually showed, and why NAD sits at the intersection of energy production, cellular repair, sleep, skin health, and biological aging. Dr. Nichola Conlon (BSc, MRes, PhD) specializes in cellular aging. After a career in drug development, Dr. Nichola founded Nuchido, driven by her belief that cutting-edge science should not lie hidden. At Nuchido, Dr. Nichola’s work focuses on delivering disruptive innovation in the field of anti-aging, rejuvenation, and healthspan. It has led to the development of Nuchido TIME+, a dietary supplement clinically proven to boost NAD+ and reverse biological age. Unlike standard precursors such as NMN or NR, Nuchido TIME+ uses a systems-based approach to target the root causes of NAD+ decline.
Full Show Notes: https://bengreenfieldlife.com/trupodcast In this episode with repeat guest Dr. Matt Dawson, you’ll discover how epigenetic testing analyzes DNA methylation to reveal how fast you’re biologically aging, what’s driving your health, and your risk for disease. You’ll explore how these signals can detect chronic disease risk earlier than traditional labs, and how TruDiagnostic built the TruHealth Test by analyzing ~1,000 biomarkers to pinpoint the most meaningful health indicators. We also break down the TruAge Test, covering biological age, pace of aging, and organ-specific aging, plus insights from my own results. We discuss how AI and large language models (LLMs) identify which interventions actually improve specific biomarkers, and what truly moves the needle for longevity, from caloric restriction and GLP-1 drugs to the often-overlooked impact of relationships, stress, and recovery.
O manual é uma publicação oficial do Estado brasileiro, elaborado pela Secretaria do Audiovisual do Ministério da Cultura com apoio de outros órgãos (Ancine, MRE, ApexBrasil, Abragames). Sua finalidade declarada é: “ampliar a transparência, reduzir barreiras informacionais e orientar produtores, desenvolvedores, coletivos e estúdios sobre as oportunidades de fomento e promoção disponíveis.” Do ponto de vista da teoria marxista do Estado, ele se insere no papel do Estado capitalista de administrar os negócios da burguesia e de criar condições para a acumulação de capital em setores estratégicos. O manual não é um texto crítico ao capitalismo, mas um guia técnico que opera dentro do marco legal existente. Ele naturaliza o mercado, o empreendedorismo e a concorrência como horizontes naturais da atividade cultural. Por isso, neste espisódio, iremos explicar e analisar as mudanças estabelecidas pelo Manual Game é Cultura, Game é Audiovisual e como ele projeta a indústria de games brasileira para um cenário de precarização e continuidade da exploração de nossa força de trabalho. Se inscreva na Game Workers Conference, uma conferencia para trabalhadores, feita por trabalhadores.

Full Show Notes: bengreenfieldlife.com/stimulatedmind In this episode with Dr. Tommy Wood, you'll explore what actually determines how well your brain functions across your entire lifespan, from the inputs that drive cognitive development in infancy all the way through the habits, environments, and daily choices that either accelerate or protect against decline in adulthood and old age, all grounded in the research behind his new book, The Stimulated Mind: Future-Proof Your Brain from Dementia and Stay Sharp at Any Age.

Full Show Notes: bengreenfieldlife.com/magteinpodcast In this episode with neuroscientist Dr. Guosong Liu, you’ll explore his accidental discovery at MIT's Center for Learning and Memory that led him down a two-decade journey into brain magnesium, synaptic plasticity, and cognitive decline. That research ultimately resulted in the invention of Magtein® (magnesium L-threonate), a compound he engineered to cross the blood-brain barrier in a way other magnesium forms cannot, with clinical trials showing a reversal of nine years of cognitive decline, measurable shifts in sleep architecture, stress reduction in as little as three days, and meaningful improvements in prefrontal cortex function at just 140 milligrams per day. Dr. Liu also shares what his current Alzheimer's prevention research looks like. Dr. Liu is a world-renowned neuroscientist whose pioneering research on brain magnesium has transformed our understanding of cognitive function and synaptic plasticity. With more than 25 years of neuroscience expertise, he previously served on the faculty at MIT's Picower Institute for Learning and Memory, founded the Center for Learning and Memory at Tsinghua University, and earned his Ph.D. in Neurophysiology from UCLA. His translational research has bridged laboratory discovery and human clinical application, resulting in multiple trials demonstrating Magtein's efficacy in supporting cognitive performance. Magtein is the patented, clinically studied form of magnesium L-threonate designed to cross the blood-brain barrier and support memory, focus, mood, sleep quality, and stress resilience. Featured in more than 400 products across 40-plus countries, it is the global standard in brain-support magnesium nutrition. Ready to give your brain magnesium it can actually use?

Full Show Notes: bengreenfieldlife.com/lnraw04 Welcome to RAW—my unfiltered solo podcast, hosted on LIFE Network (which is completely free to join here—you can listen to every RAW episode plus a full library of health and wellness podcasts, including Boundless Life). RAW is where you get the real, behind-the-scenes version of my life: the biohacking experiments I’m running on myself, the protocols I’m creating, the tools and tech I’m stress-testing before anyone hears about them, the ideas in physiology, performance, and longevity I’m diving into, the beliefs I’m questioning, the routines I’m refining, and the unconventional stuff I’m actually doing day to day. In this episode, I open up about one of the most powerful anchors in my family's life—our daily bookends. These are the routines my family and I use to start and end each day with intention, connection, and purpose. I walk you through our morning huddle, where we check in, talk schedules, share a devotional, and pray together using the ACTS method. And at night, we gather for a family dinner complete with song, prayer, game time, and meaningful conversation—no matter how busy our days have been. I share not just the how, but the why behind these practices, emphasizing their impact on raising well-rounded kids, building family legacy, and nurturing relationships. Whether you've got a spouse, roommates, or a big family, I'm giving you a roadmap you can adapt to create magic and togetherness in your own home. Hope it inspires you to try something new—thanks for joining me on this RAW episode!

Due to perceived copywrite infringments, this episode of Curmudgeon's Corner 72, has been edited to remove the "Mental Floss" segment of the show. Apparently YouTube doesn't care about your mental health. Sorry. Tonight's episode is a little different — and exactly what it needs to be. This is a hangout. No hot takes. No breakdowns. Just real conversation with good people. I'm joined by Michael Keav (Cars w/ Keav) and Israel Durant (The Occasional Detailer) — two guys who have been absolutely invaluable to the Pay It Forward campaign and this community. We've been together at SEMA, just wrapped MTE, and wanted to sit down while it was all still fresh. We talk about: • Keav's transition to full-time YouTube content creation • How that shift is actually going • SEMA vs MTE from a content creator's perspective • The pros and cons of each for filming and connection • Why showing up still matters • Community, conversations, and the moments you don't plan for We also start the show with Mental Floss, sharing a quiet but powerful moment from MTE that reminded me just how much impact a single conversation can have — and why this community exists in the first place. And as always, we close The Corner the way we always do. ❤️ PAY IT FORWARD We're continuing to build toward the next phase of the Phoenix E.O.D. Pay It Forward Campaign, including a Shipping Hope gathering at the warehouse on March 26th & 27th, where the Phoenix family is invited to help pack and ship hope together. This isn't a show. It's people helping people.

And as always, we close The Corner the way we always do. ❤️ PAY IT FORWARD We're continuing to build toward the next phase of the Phoenix E.O.D. Pay It Forward Campaign, including a Shipping Hope gathering at the warehouse on March 26th & 27th, where the Phoenix family is invited to help pack and ship hope together. This isn't a show. It's people helping people.

In this episode of the Tactical Dent Tech Podcast, John Highley records live from the Mobile Tech Expo and shares an honest breakdown of the show — the tools, the trends, and the personal reflections that come with being in the middle of it all. John covers: First impressions of MTE and how the show has evolved beyond just PDR The growing presence of PPF, detailing, ceramic coatings, and auto reconditioning Why MTE now makes sense for 95% of technicians, not just hail techs Dent Olympics, booth strategy, and where the smart companies position themselves Running into technicians who got started from early training content — and why that matters The reality of being recognized at shows (the good and the exhausting) Why focus, energy management, and boundaries matter more than ever John also breaks down new tools he picked up at the show, including: The Bull Dual Slide Hammer Kit Why cold glue + slide hammer snapping is a game changer Tools and tabs that are on his radar next Lights, leverage, and why quality tools actually change outcomes This episode isn't about hype or selling — it's about perspective. Building something real. Staying focused. And understanding that the true fruit isn't attention — it's impact.
Most people are struggling in modern relationships, and it is not because they are broken. It is because the systems around them are. In this episode, you'll learn why roughly 65 percent of people operate from insecure attachment, why that quietly destroys energy, trust, and intimacy, and how secure attachment becomes a critical biohacking upgrade for human performance, longevity, and emotional resilience. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Adam Lane Smith, MA Psych, a leading global expert on Attachment Theory and the neurobiology of human bonding. Adam has spent over 16 years studying and working in psychology, helping individuals, couples, and families repair broken relationships, rebuild trust, and develop secure attachment. His work focuses on skill-based nervous system training rather than talk therapy alone, often creating change in months instead of years. He now runs a global coaching practice and is on a mission to bring secure attachment to one billion people worldwide. Together, Dave and Adam break down why modern dating, career pressure, and social isolation have produced a generation of adults who feel emotionally exhausted, disconnected, and stuck in survival mode. They explain how insecure attachment keeps people operating at low capacity, why bonding hormones like oxytocin and vasopressin regulate stress, sleep optimization, and emotional stability, and how broken attachment patterns sabotage metabolism, focus, and recovery. The conversation also covers AI companionship, dating apps, community collapse, and why no supplement, nootropic, fasting protocol, ketosis strategy, or carnivore diet can fully compensate for unsafe nervous systems. You'll Learn: • Why 65 percent of people struggle with modern relationships • How insecure attachment caps energy, focus, and emotional resilience • Why secure attachment matters more as you age, not less • How bonding hormones regulate stress, sleep, and recovery • Why high performers still burn out without nervous system safety • How men and women experience attachment and regulation differently • Why AI and dating apps can worsen disconnection if used poorly • How community and shared purpose rebuild secure attachment • Why supplements and nootropics cannot replace real connection • Where to start if you want stronger relationships and higher capacity Dave Asprey is a four time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking.

How Alex Russell the host of The Detail Solutions Podcast started and grew his detailing business to what it is today. Alex has positioned himself great within his local market and within the auto detailing industry. He is one of the most recognized detailing podcasters within the space and shares a ton of knowledge from how he got started, where he is today in his business, and how he is organizing the paint correction competition at MTE in January. This paint correction competition is something I truly believe will be the start of a massive tradition that will not only be a very cool award but a way to learn alternate methods and strategies to achieve higher quality results or efficiency when it comes to correcting paint. Topics we discuss in this episode: ✔️ How to build your detailing business to match what you want out of life ✔️ How to sign up for the paint correction competition at MTE ✔️ How being too cheap can hurt your business This was a lot of fun and I feel honored to have Alex Russell on the podcast and definitely look forward to doing more with him in the future.

#320Today on the Clean Power Hour, Brandon Wagoner, Vice President of Strategy at Middle Tennessee Electric, explains how the second largest cooperative in America manages explosive EV adoption, deploys 32 megawatts of battery storage, and builds 113 megawatts of solar arrays while keeping rates low. His secret weapon: load factor optimization.Middle Tennessee Electric (MTE) serves 350,000 meters south and east of Nashville and leads Tennessee utilities in electric vehicle adoption. As the largest co-op in the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) service territory, MTE operates through strategic partnerships rather than vertical integration, working directly with TVA to solve generation and distribution challenges together.Key Discussion Points:• Load factor optimization as the primary metric for grid infrastructure decisions and rate management• 32 megawatts of two-hour battery storage deployment scheduled for Q1 2026 across their service territory• 3.25 MW tracking solar array operational, with 110 MW TVA solar project launching in 2028• Night Flex rate program incentivizing EV charging during six six-hour overnight windows• Community solar programs serving renters and members without rooftop installation options• Pro Solar advisory team provides trusted third-party guidance for members evaluating solar developers• Strategic approach to serving diverse demographics from high-income first adopters to conservative rural members• Co-op structure enables focus on member service rather than shareholder profits• Partnership model with TVA replaces traditional utility customer relationship• Programmatic rebates, including $50 EV charger installation incentivesConnect with Brandon WagonerWebsite: https://mte.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/midtnelectric/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/charles-brandon-wagoner-pe-2822146/ Support the showConnect with Tim Clean Power Hour Clean Power Hour on YouTubeTim on TwitterTim on LinkedIn Email tim@cleanpowerhour.com Review Clean Power Hour on Apple PodcastsThe Clean Power Hour is produced by the Clean Power Consulting Group and created by Tim Montague.

On this episode of The Story of a Brand, I sat down with Jeff Boyd, founder of MTE, a wellness brand that's redefining how we think about energy, recovery, and mood. What started as a personal quest to feel better and support the people closest to him turned into a full-spectrum product created with intention, science, and heart. Jeff gets candid about burnout, anxiety, and how most of us are just trying to show up as our best selves in a world that doesn't make it easy. This conversation isn't just about supplements—it's about the pursuit of better living. Jeff opens up about building a product he uses every day, collaborating with a world-class team of scientists and formulators, and what it means to create something for people, not just profit. It's clear MTE stands for “More Than Energy”—and this episode delivers more than your average brand story. Here's what we cover: Why Jeff left his shipping business to build a product he'd be proud to give to his family The surprising power of ingredients like saffron, ashwagandha, and paraxanthine (and why they matter) How MTE helps create an internal environment that supports energy, focus, mood, and better sleep The moment Jeff knew he had something special, from rapid sell-outs to a 48% repeat customer rate What Jeff's proudest of (hint: it's not just the product—it's how people are treated) Join me, Ramon Vela, as I listen to this heartfelt and insightful conversation with Jeff Boyd of MTE.

His work focuses on self-quantification, nervous system regulation, and sustainable energy for founders, athletes, and high performers. Together, they explore why 85% of supplements are designed to fail, how to activate mitochondria for real results, and what it means to biohack your biology smarter, not harder. This isn't just about supplements. It's about reclaiming your energy, upgrading your brain, and aligning your stack with how your body actually works. You'll also hear how fasting, sleep optimization, and even subtle neurohacking protocols support long-term resilience and better decision-making. You'll Learn: • The real reason most supplements don't absorb and how to fix it • How to build a caffeine-free stack that fuels energy, mood, and clarity • The latest in adaptogens, nootropics, and functional medicine • How to align your supplement timing with circadian biology and ketosis • Why “clean labels” often mean nothing • How emotional regulation and neurotransmitters shape performance • Tools for self-quantification and supplement personalization This is essential listening for anyone serious about biohacking, longevity, smarter supplementation, mitochondrial health, sleep optimization, emotional resilience, and conscious human performance.
