Revolutionary You!

Inspired by a suggestion from one of our listeners, I asked Leigh Peele to join me for this milestone episode. For the first time officially in the history of this show, I get the tables turned on me to be interviewed. It's lengthier than we normally go and Leigh and I cover a great deal of topics together: my background into the industry, my own personal history of mental health and wellness, the origins and philosophies of both Revolution Fitness and Therapy and this podcast and a lot more. I hope you enjoy this very different approach to our episodes and I want to again thank Leigh Peele for making this episode happen.

I welcome Lift The Bar's Alex Pearson this week to discuss what he calls "The Black Hole of Human Behavior."

On this week's bonus episode, I welcome Nancy Gass (a.k.a Nikola Rosa.) She and I recently met at The Fitness Summit and unlike the majority of the attendees she is not a fitness professional. She is, however, connected with a very popular guest of ours in Kelly Coffey. Nancy's personal story I found equally intriguing and heartbreaking. We talk about that story in this week's episode.

Having heard Dr. Mike T. Nelson speak last year and this year at The Fitness Summit, I knew how far in depth he goes with his research. This year, his presentation was focused on the data surrounding CBD oil. Dr. Mike uncovers what he believes are the most valid and most invalid purposes of this popular supplement. I'll let the episode speak for itself! To learn more about Dr. Mike's work, check out www.miketnelson.com and text 44222 for his keto e-book and to be part of his mailing list.

He remains one of my most popular guests so I'm always honored to bring back Dr. Yoni Freedhoff to the show. His previous episodes were #37 and #136 respectively. On this week's episode, we dive into the sensitive subject of the diets our children are exposed to and the best ways to navigate the food they eat for their health. If you're a fellow parent, I can't recommend this episode enough.

For her third appearance on the show (see episodes #135 and #142), Dr. Susan Kleiner joins me to discuss some of her presentation from the 2019 Fitness Summit. She had a fascinating take on what's been happening with grain production, manufacturing and how our bodies have, in turn, responded to them. An episode fully focused on grains had not been accomplished yet on this show and we dove in to it this week. Dr. Susan is always a wealth of great information and I know you won't be disappointed with this one.
