In this powerful episode of ALLSMITH, Bryce sits down with health performance expert, author, and new father Kyle Gonzalez to explore a crucial question: Are we making health harder than it needs to be?

Kyle is the creator of The Vitality System, host of the Vitality System Podcast, and VP of Performance at Coya Life. He’s helped thousands of people stop chasing complexity and start building sustainable systems that actually work.

Together, Bryce and Kyle go deep on the lies we’ve been sold in the wellness world, the underrated power of daily consistency, and what it really means to forge vitality instead of just hoping for it. They unpack Kyle’s two books — The Vitality System and Journey Within — and how his recent journey into fatherhood is reshaping his relationship with time, identity, and health.

If you’re tired of burnout cycles, overwhelmed by endless “biohacks,” or looking for a real, actionable path to reclaim your health — this one’s for you.
