Fit Mother Project Podcast

What do aviation, AI, parenting, and longevity have in common? Blair LaCorte. In this fast-paced episode, Episode 153 of the Fit Mother Project Podcast, he shares with Dr. Anthony Balduzzi the biggest lessons from his high-performance life — and how we can all build a stronger body, mind, and purpose. Together, they explore the powerful idea that safety — both physical and emotional — is the foundation for longevity, authentic living, and effective parenting. Blair shares how formative childhood experiences shaped his entrepreneurial spirit, why midlife transitions are deeply necessary, and how self-love is one of the highest acts of love for your children.

Blair explains how your parasympathetic nervous system — the “rest and digest” network — underpins your mental, physical, and emotional well-being. He emphasizes the vital role of feeling safe, connected, and curious in both health and personal evolution. His advice? Move every hour, sleep according to your chronotype, get sunlight in your eyes first thing in the morning, and start each day with intention. From daily mantras to longevity science from the Buck Institute, Blair’s practical wisdom is packed with insights.

The conversation also dives into actionable tips for parents on creating resilient, curious, and emotionally stable kids — without overprotecting them. Blair’s candid reflection on failure, identity, and the modern health landscape is both refreshing and empowering. Whether you’re looking to optimize your body, reconnect with your purpose, or better guide your children in the AI age, this episode delivers.

In this profound conversation, Dr. Anthony Balduzzi welcomes attachment specialist Adam Lane Smith to unpack how our early childhood experiences wire our nervous systems—and how that wiring can shape everything from our health to our marriages. Adam explains the science and psychology of attachment theory, revealing why so many high-achieving parents silently suffer from emotional disconnection, loneliness, and self-sabotaging health behaviors.

Listeners will learn about the three main insecure attachment styles—avoidant, anxious, and mixed—and how they show up in relationships, parenting, and health choices. Adam provides a visceral, relatable description of how these patterns develop, the havoc they can wreak, and how they can be completely healed through conscious effort, safe relationships, and nervous system regulation.

But this episode isn’t just theoretical. Dr. Balduzzi and Adam dive deep into the practical side: how women can build secure attachment through small, consistent steps, how fitness plays a critical role in rewiring the brain for connection, and how parents can start creating transformational moments with their kids—without needing to be perfect.

This episode will resonate with anyone who’s ever felt disconnected despite doing everything “right.” It’s a wake-up call for high performers, a roadmap for parents, and a love letter to those willing to do the inner work. Don’t miss the insights that could quite literally transform your relationships—and your life.

• Early trauma wires nervous system dysfunction
• Avoidant = survival mode, overwork, disconnected
• Anxious = approval seeking, learned helplessness
• Secure = calm, connected, honest communication
• Attachment issues crush hormone balance
• Most divorces = anxious woman + avoidant man
• High performers often hide deep loneliness
• Nervous system dysregulation blocks oxytocin
• Healing begins with awareness and self-reflection
• Fixing attachment transforms your physiology
• Parents must become self-correcting, not perfect
• Fitness supports nervous system healing
• Kids model what they see, not what you say
• Transparency + feedback = secure relationships
• Your health habits are also love habits

In another powerful episode of the Fit Mother Project Podcast, Episode 151, Dr. Anthony Balduzzi welcomes Ben Azadi—bestselling author, metabolic health expert, and founder of Keto Kamp—for a deep dive into the root causes of poor metabolic health and what it truly takes to reclaim your body, mind, and vitality. Ben shares his personal transformation story, going from suicidal, overweight, and inflamed at 250 lbs to thriving in his 40s—lean, healthy, and purposeful. His journey started with ownership and mindset shifts, and evolved into a life’s mission of helping others achieve “metabolic freedom.”

The conversation goes far beyond keto buzzwords. Ben outlines how environmental toxins, not just calories, are driving fat gain and chronic disease, with shocking data about "obesogens" and "diabetogens" found in food, water, and even household items. He also challenges conventional calorie-focused models of weight loss and reveals how addressing hormones and inflammation is the real path to transformation.

Ben unpacks his strategic use of ketosis—not as a lifelong diet, but as a metabolic tool—alongside the power of fasting, carnivore resets, and metabolic flexibility. His 6-day carnivore + 1-day carb refeed approach gives listeners a fresh model of how to eat and train for longevity and leanness.

Finally, the conversation takes a powerful turn into mindset. Ben’s favorite “supplement”? Vitamin G—gratitude. He explains how thoughts shape biology, citing the placebo effect, stress hormones, and genetic expression. He leaves listeners with a compelling call to master their thinking to master their health.

• Weight gain is a symptom of deeper dysfunction
• Hidden toxins (obesogens, diabetogens) drive fat storage
• Hormones and inflammation matter more than calories
• Keto used as a strategic metabolic tool, not lifelong diet
• Fasting insulin is the best marker for metabolic health
• Carnivore diet works well as a short-term gut reset
• Weekly protocol: 6 days carnivore, 1 day carb refeed
• Plastics and household toxins disrupt hormones and metabolism
• Muscle mass is the #1 driver of metabolic efficiency after 60
• Vitamin G = gratitude, the most underrated anti-inflammatory
• Your thoughts can literally turn genes on or off
• Rewiring your mindset is like strength training for the brain
• True metabolic freedom comes from healing root causes

I’m Anthony Lolli—a businessman, entrepreneur, fitness transformation advocate, and biohacker dedicated to unlocking human potential. My career began in real estate, where I built a thriving business before shifting my focus to wellness and family. My health journey took center stage when I lost 125 pounds, as featured in From Fat Lolli to 6 Pack Lolli, igniting my passion to help others transform their lives.

In 2024, I became Editor-in-Chief of Biohack Yourself Media and co-created the Biohack Yourself documentary series with my wife, TereZa. Through documentaries that stream on Amazon Prime, Apple TV, Roku, Tubi, a national magazine, and a health news platform, we’re making biohacking accessible to the world. Together, we spearheaded the MAHA movement and hosted the inaugural MAHA Ball, which featured RFK Jr. and 35 leading health experts—an event marking the U.S. as a global voice for health advocacy.

This is just the beginning. My mission is clear: to inspire the world to pursue lifelong wellness—because health isn’t a privilege; it’s a pursuit.

Tina Anderson’s journey into the world of health had a unique start and some unusual turns. She began her career as a trial lawyer who specialized in settling cases by bringing both sides together, a personal passion of hers. Once her second child arrived, Tina left that high-stress job behind so she could focus on her family. Luckily, she was still able to use her considerable legal skills to point her career in a new direction as the in-house counsel for a family pharmaceutical company. But what Tina saw there made her change direction again. Frustrated by the many abuses in the pharmaceutical industry, Tina turned toward the field of natural health and found her life’s work. She channeled her energy into learning all she could about disease prevention and good health maintenance. That led her to discover the importance of gut health and how connected and crucial it is for overall health and wellness. To share her discovery with the world, Tina, along with her husband, created a unique supplement that contains the superior probiotic strains of renowned researcher Dr. Simon Cutting. By promoting gut health and probiotics, Tina shares her passion for wellness, helping others live their best physical and emotional lives.
