  • Episode 15: Mitochondria, Marketing, and Misinformation
    Jun 13 2025

    In this episode, I share the deeper “why” behind my recent blog post on mitochondria and why understanding the science—not just the buzzwords—matters for our health journeys. Then, I tackle a listener question about vibration plates and use it to explore a bigger issue: the frustrating trend of cherry-picking scientific studies to sell products or push narratives. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by conflicting health advice online, this one’s for you.

  • Episode 14: TikTok Returns, Setbacks & Self-Experiments: Making Health Personal
    May 30 2025

    In Episode 14, I talk about returning to TikTok (https://www.tiktok.com/@the.human.conditioned?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc) and navigating the realities of trying to expand my business offerings—spoiler: progress isn’t always linear. I also recap two recent blog posts:

    1. Understanding the Kinetic Chain—how a single imbalance or injury can ripple through your entire body and what that means for sustainable movement and injury prevention.

    2. Using ChatGPT as a Free Health & Fitness Research Assistant—how to turn your wellness journey into a personal experiment using the data you already have, with smart prompts and zero cost.

    This episode is all about adapting, realigning, and making informed choices on your journey to better health.

  • Episode 13 – Real Life, Real Routines: Illness, Homestead Care, and Evolving Health Goals
    May 16 2025

    Life doesn’t always go according to plan—and that’s okay. In this episode, I open up about the recent disruptions to my schedule caused by a stretch of illness in my household, and how I’ve been redirecting energy toward caring for my little homestead during recovery. I share updates on my personal keto journey and dive into a new idea I’m developing to expand The Human Conditioned—a tool to help clients better understand and take control of their individual health and fitness needs. I also highlight two recent blog posts: one on why personal trainers should be cautious when recommending supplements, and another on the often-overlooked importance of stretching. Whether you're navigating setbacks or fine-tuning your wellness routine, this episode is a reminder that progress is rarely linear—but always possible.

  • Episode 12 – Life Happens, Health Continues: Social Health, Keto Beginnings & Maslow’s Reminder
    Apr 15 2025

    In this slightly delayed episode (because… life), I talk about why this episode is dropping late—think spring cleaning, home maintenance, and all the real-life stuff we all juggle. Then we dive into the most recent blog post on Social Determinants of Health and how they impact your ability to make lasting health changes. I also connect this concept to Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, and why understanding foundational needs is critical before expecting health goals to stick.

    Finally, I’m starting a new chapter—my keto journey. I share why I’ve chosen to give the ketogenic diet a go, what I’m hoping to learn from it, and how I’ll be approaching it with intention, curiosity, and balance.
