In this episode, Mike discusses the freeing life factor of "ditching what doesn't serve you" and how that can open up a more meaningful, peaceful existence. While the term can sound selfish, the results of this sort of life clean-up are anything but. Eliminating what doesn't serve us isn't only designated to something that is painful, arduous or irritating, but can also be something deep rooted and conditioned that still brings pleasure, but is quietly the time-sucker that leads to neglect of more fulfilling aspects of life.

In this episode, Mike reviews some of the biggest regrets stated by those on their death bed, the elderly, and the retired. We all have a different path in life made up of conditioning, trauma, beliefs, and personal choices, but it may be helpful to step outside of our current mindset and attempt to gauge if we're headed down a path of regret later in life. While living in the present moment is most essential, there are times to step away, reflect and analyze the present moment to uncover neglectful behaviors or destructive habits that may be working towards remorse in the future.

In this episode, Mike explains his 80-15-5 lifestyle theory and how it can become an effective eating structure in order to sustain a physique long-term, without rigidity, heavy restriction or fad diets involved. 80-15-5 can look different for everyone, so this episode simply provides a high-level idea of what it is and how it can be implemented initially.

In this episode, Mike is joined by personal trainer and fat loss coach, Nick Becht, for an in-depth discussion regarding the tired battle of "good foods" vs "bad foods." They'll discuss how the mere thought of a food being "bad" can trigger several different negative emotions in a person as well as develop a poor relationship with food. The guys also analyze the role that diet culture has played in creating a mental war within people between the so-called "good" and "bad" foods. Mike and Nick go on to explain how they approach their clients with unlearning this mentality and set them on a path to success through taking control of their own diet and views on food.

In this episode, Mike, and certified personal trainer, Yolie, review her history with disordered eating. We focus on the root of the cause of the disorder, which in this case, stems from youth. Yolie opens up and discusses her 18-year struggle with anorexia and bulimia, overall effect it had on her relationships, and how this has shaped her into the woman she is today. In addition, we take the conversation full circle and give ideas on how we can prevent trauma in our youth around their food intake to reduce the chances of developing an eating disorder. Huge thanks to Yolie and much respect for opening up and telling her story to raise awareness of disordered eating in our society.
