What if your biggest challenge isn’t motivation but missing structure? In this episode, I sit down with Brian Johnson to unpack the science and philosophy of lasting behavior change. We explore the power of ancient wisdom, stoicism, and the neuroscience of excellence, and why most wellness apps fail to deliver real transformation.

Brian shares his personal journey from startup success to creating a global movement around character, discipline, and identity-based habits. We talk about the science of anti-fragility, how muscle mirrors virtue, and why the gap between who you are and who you could be is the true source of suffering. Whether you're a high performer or someone who wants to stop breaking promises to yourself, this conversation will help you build the structure to show up as your best—no matter the circumstance.

What You’ll Learn:

• Why most behavior change fails—and what the science says works
• The philosophy of Areté: how to close the gap between potential and action
• How ancient stoicism aligns with modern recovery, resilience, and muscle
• Why building muscle is a metaphor (and mechanism) for building character
• The true definition of anti-fragility—and how to train it

If you're ready to bridge the gap between knowing and doing, this episode is the roadmap you've been looking for.

When it comes to performance, more isn’t always better. In this episode, I sit down with conditioning expert Joel Jamieson to explore the science of recovery, aerobic fitness, and how to use heart rate variability (HRV) to train smarter. They dive into why elite athletes recover so quickly, the long-term value of zone 2 training, and how HRV reflects your resilience—not just your readiness. Joel shares lessons from two decades of working with fighters, Olympians, and NFL players, along with powerful insights from his own cardiovascular health journey. Whether you’re a high performer or simply want to live longer and stronger, this episode is packed with practical takeaways.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• What HRV actually tells you—and what it doesn’t
• Why aerobic fitness is one of the strongest drivers of recovery and longevity
• The surprising downside of too much strength training
• How to monitor training load and avoid overtraining
• Why lifestyle stress matters more than your workout

This episode will change the way you think about training—and reveal why recovery deserves a central role in your performance strategy.
