1. Topic I’m taking a deeper dive into… Two topics often overlooked when it comes to health and wellness are sleep and breathing. Recently, I was sent a link to a Joe Rogan podcast with James Nestor, author of Breath: The New Science of a Lost Art. (Thanks, Matt M.!) I loved the podcast and…
Healthy living is often broken down into pieces. You read and hear of different fad diets, trendy exercises, and the next “new” idea. You can read a whole book on a particular way of eating, a specific workout, or some other specific thing aimed at leading you to optimal health. Many of these ideas and…
1. Event I’m really excited about… I was invited to speak at this year’s Customer Service Revolution Conference. It’s an honor to be speaking with some of the best speakers out there, like Seth Godin, Guy Kawasaki, Tom Bilyeu, John DiJulius, Ken Blanchard, Jesse Itzler, and more. This is one of the best customer service…
We often refer to people as being sick or being well. The truth is that there is a large spectrum between those two qualifiers. Doctors often define sickness and health by the results of a physical exam and bloodwork. They often minimize the role of diet and exercise. What about all of the other factors…
1. Great podcast I listened to this week… Somehow, Tim Ferris manages to keep me interested with almost 2-hour long podcasts. Podcast number #444 is with Hugh Jackman… and it’s a great one! I always wonder what big stars are like in real life and was so happy to find that Hugh Jackman is down…
Like me, you likely find that you have more and more tasks to do, but the amount of time you have to do them stays the same. I have worked very hard at being able to juggle multiple tasks simultaneously while maintaining the belief that I could get more done in less time. For a…
1. Article I revisited… Two years ago, I saw an article that rocked me. Why it didn’t rock everyone, I do not know. The title? “Goldman Sachs asks in biotech research report: ‘Is curing patients a sustainable business model?’” We all know drug companies are not in the business of curing disease, but aim to…
Unfortunately, information surrounding the coronavirus is getting more confusing, not less. There is still so much misinformation, uncertainty, and people speaking as if they know so much, but don’t. While the unknowns can be unnerving and scary, what we do know should put most people at ease. If you could respond to that statement, you…
1. Question I was asked recently… I had a new patient that stopped on her way out of my office and asked if she could ask me a question. She asked what I did for birthdays with my kids in regards to things like cake and ice cream. She knows I’m all about making healthy…
Most people are interested in their health. This statement requires some clarification. I think it’s safe to say that a majority of Americans place very little emphasis on true optimization of their bodies, but do have interest in avoiding pain and being able to get through the day. I believe a large percentage of our…
