Miles explores a silent disruptor in our wellness journey: The Absorption Gap.What if your body isn’t broken—but simply unable to receive the healing you’re offering?John shares his own story of optimizing everything—yet unraveling—and breaks down the four hidden filters that block absorption:

    What happens after you’ve lived the dream—and it’s over?In this profound conversation, astronaut and Navy fighter pilot Susan Kilrain joins Passion Struck to explore her journey from humble beginnings in Georgia to piloting two Space Shuttle missions, becoming one of the few women to fly the F-14 Tomcat, and raising a family while married to a Navy SEAL.But this isn’t just a story about spaceflight.
