Chris Mirabile hit rock bottom in his twenties - burnout, depression, a failed startup, and losing everything in Hurricane Sandy. But instead of checking out, he checked into his health. In this episode, Chris talks with Jon how that turning point led to NOVOS, a science-backed supplement designed to slow biological aging by targeting its 12 root causes. He breaks down the daily habits that dropped his biological age by over a decade, the sleep hacks that change everything, and why real longevity starts with discipline - not gimmicks.

From earning a hoodie to building a national community, Bryan shares how [solidcore] scaled to 140+ studios by knowing exactly who it’s for, and who it’s not. He opens up about client psychology, culture carriers, and why the real competition isn’t another gym…it’s the couch.

Jeff Byers, former NFL lineman and co-founder of Momentous, opens up about burnout, leadership, and rediscovering his purpose.

He talks with Jon about what it means to lead with integrity, scrap bestsellers when the science doesn’t hold up, and redefine high performance with heart. 

Jo Weinand, founder of Nutcase, joins Jon to share her unlikely startup story. During Canada’s COVID lockdown, boredom led her to Google how to make a delicious plant based chocolate milk.

What followed: poker games, celebrity investors like Ninja and Steve Aoki, a reality show on X, and an upcoming live-streamed equity crowdfunding finale in June, with a waitlist already open for early access.

Mac Davis never planned on revolutionizing human health through gene therapy. A serial biotechnology entrepreneur, he founded Minicircle after developing a groundbreaking transient genetic enhancement platform.

He explores the challenges of building a gene therapy company, early investor support from Sam Altman and Peter Thiel, and his vision of making personalized health interventions as accessible as a routine medical treatment.

NextSense CEO, Jonathan Berent, never planned on reinventing how we sleep.

In this episode, he talks about his leap from corporate engineer to entrepreneur, why going “all in” was non-negotiable, and how we can all shed self-imposed labels to unlock bigger possibilities.

Brent Polacheck, owner of Polacheck’s Jewelers, is proving that the art of generational relationship-building still drives retail success in an era of instant gratification.
