Most people start carnivore for one reason: weight loss.

I did too.

After losing nearly 60 pounds, I realized that wasn’t the biggest benefit. The real shifts were happening mentally, emotionally, and physically — and they had nothing to do with the scale.

In this episode, we talk about:

• Why focusing only on weight loss might be the wrong goal
• The non-scale victories no one talks about
• Mental health shifts and intrusive thoughts
• Inflammation and joint pain
• Skin changes
• Food noise and sugar cravings
• Moderation vs strict carnivore
• Gym performance and carbs

If you’re only looking at the scale, you might be missing what actually makes this sustainable.

Be honest — did you start carnivore for weight loss?
What made you stay?

Britt James is back, and we’re talking all about PSMF, weight loss stalls, PCOS, insulin resistance, and macro changes.

In this episode, we share thoughts on using tools like higher-protein phases, fasting, and macro shifts to help break plateaus, plus why bio-individuality matters so much when it comes to fat loss and health.

Britt also shares her experience with a medically supervised PSMF approach through the Cleveland Clinic.

In this episode, we slow down and question some of the biggest ideas most of us were taught to accept without hesitation.

From the moon landing and dinosaurs to the shape of the Earth itself, we explore why questioning these topics feels so uncomfortable and why so many people are discouraged from even going there.

We are not here to tell you what to believe.
We are simply asking questions and inviting you to think critically alongside us.

Hear us out. Then decide for yourself.

We just wrapped up our first week living in the van, and it already feels very different than we imagined.

In this episode, we talk about the adjustment phase that no one really warns you about: changing routines, working while traveling, managing stress, and figuring out how to make real life function inside a small moving space.

We share:

• What surprised us most about week one

• The mental and emotional side of starting van life

• How we’re structuring work days on the road

• What staying healthy and carnivore looks like without normal routines

• What feels easier than expected and what feels harder

If you’re interested in van life from a realistic, behind-the-scenes perspective, this episode is a good place to start.

We didn’t start carnivore to change our entire lives.
We started it to feel better.

And then… we accidentally opened Pandora’s box.

In this episode, we talk about what happens after you change how you eat — how it can turn into questioning nutrition guidelines, modern lifestyle stress, how kids learn and behave, and why the health world is obsessed with doing everything perfectly.

This isn’t a van-life origin story. It’s the mindset shift that comes before big life changes. The moment food stops being “just food” and starts changing how you see everything else.

Fair warning: once you start questioning one thing, it’s hard to stop.

We’re kicking off World Carnivore Month with an honest conversation about starting over… again.

We talk about falling off track, gaining the weight back, feeling it in your body, and finding the motivation to begin again anyway — plus what “choose your hard” really looks like in real life.

We also cover getting back to the gym, restarting carnivore, the mental side of discipline, and how to support your partner through it all.

If you’ve ever said, “this time will be different”… this one’s for you.

In this episode, we talk through a season of change that’s reshaping how we live and work. Jeff officially joins the show as a permanent co-host as we move into weekly conversations about family, alternative living, and choosing a path that doesn’t always look conventional.

We share what led us here, why this shift feels necessary, and what it looks like to make big decisions without having everything figured out. This conversation touches on life on the road, work, family rhythms, and how our priorities are evolving in real time.

If you’re navigating uncertainty, questioning the “normal” path, or standing in the middle of a big transition, this episode is for you.

New episodes weekly.
