In today’s episode, we are joined by Paul Taylor, an exercise physiologist, nutritionist, and neuroscientist currently completing a Ph.D. in applied psychology. As the Director of The Mind-Body-Brain Performance Institute, Paul aims to deliver resilience, leadership, and executive performance workshops to successful companies worldwide. How does he help others thrive under high-pressure situations? He sits down to explain…

Paul's book, Death by Comfort: How modern life is killing us and what we can do about it, is a compelling exploration of the urgent issues we face in today's society. Using neuroscience, anthropology, and nutrition, Paul reveals exactly what's wrong – and what we need to do to survive and flourish.

In this discussion, we cover:

  • The key points behind Death by Comfort.
  • How our digital connectivity and social disconnectivity impact our health.
  • Why an environment of comfort and convenience doesn’t work well for a hunter/gatherer genome.
  • Factors that contribute to modern physical and mental health problems.
  • The difference that nature makes on microbiomes.

Paul's advice is not just theoretical, it's practical and actionable. By fostering resilience, mental well-being, and reducing levels of burnout, Paul’s background as a British Royal Navy Aircrew Officer continues to benefit individuals across the globe.
