Ep. #55

On this episode, we have the pleasure of hosting Mark and Carrie Sisson, powerhouses in the wellness industry. Together, they reveal their individual journeys into health and fitness, which has now spanned over two decades. The discussion moves into the realm of diets, from keto to paleo, and even touching on the often controversial topic of veganism. The Sissons share their personal experiences and views on these diets, highlighting the importance of sustainability and individuality when it comes to dietary choices. But we don't just stop at diets and workouts, we also venture into the sphere of endurance training, the benefits of quality wines, and foot health.


Lastly, we delve into the world of entrepreneurship, with a particular focus on the Sisson's latest venture, Peluva - a shoe company revolutionizing footwear for health and comfort. The Sissons explain how conventional shoes may not be the best choice for foot health and how they're seeking to change this with Peluva. We also explore the interconnectedness of various industries, such as food and medicine, and the common trend of addressing symptoms rather than root causes. From health and fitness to relationships and entrepreneurship, this episode covers a lot of ground.
