*“What if the missing piece to your energy, your clarity, your ability to show up in the world...
 Wasn’t something you needed to do more of… but something you needed to do less of?

Or maybe — nothing at all?

Today’s episode is about reclaiming the lost art of stillness.

Not rest with your phone in your hand.
 Not rest with Netflix on in the background.
 Not even rest with a podcast in your ear (I see you!).

I’m talking about pure, unapologetic stillness.
 Because when you learn to do nothing, you unlock everything.”*

In this episode, we’re doing something special. We’re rewinding the clock to one of the most powerful masterclass episodes I’ve ever recorded — and if you’re serious about losing fat, feeling better, and performing at your best, this one is a must‑listen.

You’ve probably heard “work harder” or “eat cleaner” a thousand times. But what if you’re already grinding in the gym, watching what you eat, and still not seeing results? What if the real secret sauce for fat loss isn’t another workout or another diet hack… but something you’re probably neglecting every single night?

That’s exactly what we’re diving into today. In this episode, we break down:

• Why lack of sleep sabotages your hormones, your hunger, and your ability to recover.
  
  
  
• How one simple change in your nightly routine can literally shift your body from storing fat to burning fat.
  
  
  
• The overlooked science shows that you can work out less and lose more if your sleep is dialed in.
  
  
  

This isn’t fluffy theory. It’s backed by real studies and real stories — and it’s exactly the kind of game‑changing info my clients use to unlock the progress they’ve been chasing.

So if you’ve ever wondered why you’re “doing everything right” but your results aren’t showing up… buckle up. This episode is going to reframe the way you think about fat loss forever.

Alright Dream Team — let’s hit play on this throwback masterclass: “The importance of SLEEP on Your Fat Loss Goals.”

Welcome back to Part 4, the final chapter of our Sleep Like a Genius series.

Over the last three Wellness Wednesday episodes, we’ve explored how sleep is the foundation of your energy, your mood, your memory, your muscle, your metabolism, your hormones, and your healing.

But before we call it a night, we’ve got one more deep dive.

In this episode, we’re tackling the BIG questions:

• Should you be taking melatonin?
  
  
  
• What does sleep have to do with late-night cravings?
  
  
  
• Is there actually a fix for insomnia that doesn’t involve drugs?
  
  
  
• And how the COVID-19 pandemic permanently changed our sleep — some of it for the better, some of it for the worse.
  Let’s break it all down.

In this episode, I want to hit you with something powerful.
 Something you need to hear not once — but repeatedly — because your brain doesn’t believe what’s true…

It believes what you repeat.

Let’s talk about how to retrain your brain, reprogram your identity, and transform your life — all by learning how to speak to yourself on purpose.

Life moves fast.

And sometimes, so does your mind.

The thoughts, the tasks, the noise — it all piles up.

You might not even realize how full your mental plate is until it starts to overflow.

 If your mind feels like it’s running in a hundred directions...
 If it’s loud, cluttered, chaotic...
 If your thoughts are looping or jumping from tab to tab...
 This is your moment to pause.
 To step out of the mental traffic.
 And to reset.

This episode will be your guided meditation - mind cleanse.

Today’s episode is sparked by a post that’s been making waves online. It goes like this:

“If this was your weekly grocery list:
 – 2 cartons of eggs
 – 2–4 grass-fed steaks
 – 2–3 lbs of ground beef
 – 1 whole chicken and fish
 – Vegetables of choice
 – Avocados and berries
 – 2 large Greek yogurts

You’d lose fat, gain muscle, and have zero food cravings.”

Sounds pretty good, right?

But is it really that simple? Could this be the secret we’ve all been missing? Or is this another one-size-fits-all oversimplification dressed up as nutrition advice?

Let’s break it down — with science, real-life application, and practical tips for anyone chasing fat loss, muscle gain, and long-term health.

In this episode, we're rollin’ it back to one of the most important, eye-opening, and wildly misunderstood topics in all of health and fitness — your metabolism.

Now hold up — before you think, “Oh yeah, I’ve heard about that already…”
 Let me ask you this:

Do you actually know what your metabolism is?
Or how to train it?
Or what it really means to speed it up?

Because most people don’t.

And that’s exactly why we’re digging this one out of the archives.

In this episode, we unpack what metabolism actually means — no fluff, no hype, just real science explained in a way that makes sense and actually applies to your life.

We talk about:

• Metabolic flexibility and how your body uses fuel
• Why metabolism isn’t just about burning calories — it’s about adapting
• How diet, exercise, and even alcohol affect your metabolic pathways
• And why most people are stuck in “traffic jams” on the metabolic freeway

If you’ve ever felt like your metabolism is broken… slow… or sabotaging your goals — this episode will completely reframe how you think about fat loss, energy, and nutrition.

In this episode we’re diving into Part 3 of our Sleep Like a Genius series — and this one is gonna blow your mind. Because we’re not just talking about sleep hygiene and blue light glasses — we’re going deeper.

We’re talking about:

• Why daylight savings time is basically a global sleep experiment gone wrong — and how it’s affecting your heart, brain, and even the stock market.
  
  
  
• How better sleep can supercharge your sex life — and how sex can boost your sleep in return.
  
  
  
• Whether naps are helpful… or harmful.
  
  
  
• And finally — the surprising health benefits of dreaming — creativity, emotional healing, and even problem-solving while you sleep.
  
  
  

Let’s get into it.
