Veteran and entrepreneur Chad Grills of National Capital League discusses his experience with Big Tech and how building anything meaningful and lasting will likely not come out of Silicon Valley or places like California. He explains how Silicon Valley was seeded by DOD, the Intelligence Community, and DARPA. The culture of Silicon Valley and most major cities will not allow anything original or good for humanity to emerge. He argues we have neither communism nor capitalism, but a monopolistic system that keeps the little guy out. He stresses a need for better governance, creating good culture, maintaining personal integrity, and is optimistic about the ability of America to reinvent itself.

What we tailed about 1. Question from Kate: She's been eating well all summer, working out five times a week (including three HIIT classes and two yoga sessions), but hasn't seen any change on the scales. She wonders if it's peri menopausal and if she should see a doctor, especially as she's trying to conceive and prepare for IVF. There could be various factors affecting weight, including diet tracking, the type of exercises, and stress. HIIT classes might not be ideal before IVF due to the stress they place on the body. It's essential to consider the consistency of workouts and overall stress levels. It doesn't necessarily mean it's perimenopause. Monitoring progress through photos or clothing fit might be more indicative than scales. Muscle gain could offset fat loss, making scales misleading.2. Question from AJ in San Diego: What are the signs of infertility? Infertility can manifest in various ways. Common signs include trying to conceive for a year without success, irregular or absent menstrual cycles, abnormal bleeding, and significant pain or discomfort during periods. Tracking menstrual cycles can provide insights. In the UK, the standard measure is if one has been trying for a year without becoming pregnant.3. Question from Mira in Leicester: She has PCOS and doesn't ovulate regularly. She's hoping her doctor will prescribe Clomid or Letrozole. Which is better? Both Clomid and Letrozole aim to stimulate ovulation. Letrozole reduces estrogen production, leading to an increase in FSH, which stimulates the ovaries. It might be more effective than Clomid, especially for women with PCOS. Clomid blocks estrogen receptors in the brain, leading to increased secretion of FSH and LH, stimulating the ovaries. However, Clomid can have side effects like thickening cervical mucus and thinning the uterine lining. Letrozole might have fewer side effects. It's essential to consult with a doctor to determine the best option.4. Question from Roisin: What was your first podcast, and do you have any recommendations? Maria's first podcast was the "Spartan Up Podcast," related to fitness. She also recommends the "Nike Trained" podcast. Another recommendation is "The Retrievals," which focuses on the egg collection experience. Rosin started with "Serial," a true crime podcast, and also recommends "Undisclosed," "Dirty John," "Shrink Next Door," and "Search Engine" by PJ Vogt.Thank you for tuning in to this week's episode of the Fitness Fertility Podcast.

An example is Ben's dream crossing - the Bering Strait from Siberia to Alaska, alone on a stand-up paddleboard. Ben Stresses the importance of preparation - doing your research, knowing your gear and your body, and considering how to handle absolute worst-case scenarios, including injuries. He reminds us that when you have enough moving parts to a plan, you have to know that something is going to go wrong!

What’s the one thing we could do to improve the future? Raise better young people. Facilitate better parenting. Our country faces an epidemic of “fatherlessness.” Whether due to a father figure not physically being in the picture or mentally being distant - it is a massive obstacle that Justin Batt has been working to overcome with Daddy Saturdays. It’s not just for dad’s and not just on Saturdays, his book and his programs create a paradigm shift about how we look at our free time, how we engage with our children and what being an intentional parent really looks like. As he says, let’s all raise good kids that become great adults!
