Built Lyfe

What if the secret to better health, stronger discipline, and a more powerful life wasn't more — but less?

In this episode, I sit down with Jeremy Mullins — U.S. Army National Guard dietitian and the lead nutrition expert for 1st Phorm — to break down why simplicity always wins.

We talk about:

• Why your health impacts everything in your life

• The power of small, consistent changes

• Why most people fail chasing complexity

• How to cut the fluff and focus on what actually moves the needle

Jeremy brings over two decades of experience working with soldiers, athletes, and everyday people trying to win in real life — not just on a spreadsheet.

If you're tired of spinning your wheels and ready to build something sustainable, this one's for you.

This isn't just a conversation. This is a mission. A mission to break the silence, to shatter the stigma around mental health, and to remind men everywhere: you're not alone.

In this raw and powerful episode of Strong Mind Strong Body, we open the door to a conversation most men never have — but desperately need. Kevin shares the pain of losing his son, the weight of showing up while carrying grief, and how that pain became a purpose. Firefighter and mental health advocate Jacob dives into his journey from suicidal thoughts to building a brotherhood of support and healing.

You'll hear real stories — from overcoming addiction and imposter syndrome, to ditching intense fitness fads in favor of consistent daily growth. You'll hear how vulnerability becomes strength… and how leading from the front starts with looking inward.

This is for the men who are tired of pretending. This is for the men who want more — more peace, more purpose, more strength.

Inside this episode:

• The power of safe spaces for men to speak the truth

• Rebuilding from loss, pain, and suicidal thoughts

• Why consistency beats the 75-day sprints every time

• The mission to rewrite mental health for the next generation

• How leadership starts with personal responsibility and community

Whether you're in the fire, on the edge, or already rising — this episode will meet you there.

Happy Father's Day to the ones actually doing the work.

Not just the ones wearing the title. Not the ones posting for likes. But the men who are breaking cycles. The ones showing up — even when it's heavy.

In this special Father's Day episode of Strong Mind Strong Body, I share what it's meant to be a father without a blueprint… To raise something different while still learning how to lead. To show up, imperfect but consistent. And to live in a way your kids can feel — not just see.

Inside this episode:

• What it means to lead without a model

• Why presence will always beat perfection

• The legacy we build in our actions, not just our words

• A reminder that if you're in the arena, you're not alone

This one's for the dads who are still healing while leading. The ones rewriting the script. The ones who show up anyway.

In this episode of Strong Mind Strong Body, we're getting brutally honest: There's a version of you you've been hiding — and it's killing you inside.

You buried him. You locked him away. Maybe someone shut him down… Maybe you told yourself he wasn't good enough.

So you started playing small. You kept it safe. And now you walk around with a smile on your face — but a cage in your chest.

This episode is a challenge. To stop living for comfort, approval, or false peace. And to finally give yourself permission to be you.

Inside this episode:

• Why most people are scared of their true potential

• The silent cost of playing a role that's not aligned

• What you're really afraid of losing when you break free

• How to reconnect with the version of you that's been buried

• Why the world doesn't need more approval-seekers — it needs truth-tellers

"Be strong enough to let that version out. Not for applause. But because that's where freedom starts."

In this episode of Strong Mind Strong Body, I'm coming in raw with a reminder we all need — including myself: You don't need the newest hack. You need discipline. You need consistency. You need the fundamentals.

Everyone's chasing the next big thing… The new science. The flashy method. The shortcut that promises results with less work.

But let me ask you: Have you even mastered the basics yet?

You're looking for marginal gains when you haven't even built a foundation. And no new tactic will fix a weak base.

This episode is a callout and a challenge — To stop jumping from shiny object to shiny object… And start building something real that will last.

In this episode of Strong Mind Strong Body, I share a real conversation from a group road ride that hit deeper than expected. A guy asked me if creatine was worth the hype. Said he tried it for two weeks and didn't see anything but water weight. Then told me he read studies that say it doesn't work for 20% of people — so he figured he's part of that 20%.

But here's the truth: What you search for… you find.

This isn't about creatine. It's about how quick we are to quit. How fast we search for reasons something won't work instead of leaning into the effort and consistency it takes to see results — in training, in business, in life.

Inside this episode:

• Why your mindset controls what you "find"

• How most people quit before they ever give something a real chance

• Why doubt is often disguised as research

• How to shift from validation-seeking to growth-building

• What it takes to stay committed long enough to win

If you're tired of bailing early and ready to build the discipline to actually follow through — this one's for you.

In this episode of Strong Mind Strong Body, we're calling out the silent killer of growth — playing small.

Too many people sit back and watch others build their dream life while they stay stuck in hesitation. Is it fear? A lack of clarity? Not knowing where to start? Maybe. But here's the truth… Nobody who built something great had it all figured out. They just started.

This episode will challenge you to:

• Stop waiting for clarity and start taking action

• Question if your "why" is actually strong enough to move you

• Step into the unknown without a guarantee — because that's where purpose is found

• Recognize that the most successful people don't do it alone

You're not stuck. You're just playing small. And it's time to stop.

In this episode of Strong Mind Strong Body, we're cutting through the noise: You've been told your whole life, "you're not better than anyone else." And while it might have been meant to teach humility, it probably taught you to shrink. To dim your light. To settle.

Here's the truth: You ARE better. Better at discipline. Better at controlling your future. Better at refusing to settle for average when greatness is calling.

This episode is your permission slip to stop watering yourself down and start owning what you're truly capable of. You weren't built to blend in. You were built to break the damn mold.

In this episode of Strong Mind Strong Body, we dive deep into the truth that most people never hear enough: you are enough. From childhood, we're handed beliefs about what we can and can't do — sometimes from family, teachers, even friends — and often, those beliefs weren't meant to harm us… but they did.

The problem? Those voices shaped your reality. They weren't rooted in your potential — they were rooted in their limitations.

Today, we're calling that out. It's time to break free from the lies and remember: you are capable, worthy, and built for greatness. If the average person thinks your goals are "crazy," you're probably on the right path.

We'll unpack where limiting beliefs come from, how to recognize them, and how to rewire your mindset so you can step into who your younger self dreamt of becoming — and who your future self will be proud of.
