  • Brad Evarts: From Near-Death to Legacy, Family, and the Best Salsa in Texas
    Aug 25 2025

    At 15 years old, Brad Evarts nearly died in a car crash that claimed two lives. That moment shaped everything — setting him on a path defined by resilience, faith, and second chances.


    From building iconic restaurants in California, to experiencing devastating setbacks, to moving to Texas with his wife Julie and creating Moose Farmz — Brad’s story is bold, raw, and deeply inspiring. Today, their handcrafted pozole, gazpacho, and fresh salsas are quickly becoming favorites at the Barton Creek Farmers Market and beyond.


    Beyond food and business, Brad trains with me weekly. At 60+, his discipline, energy, and childlike spirit are powerful reminders that it’s never too late to reinvent yourself.


    Many listeners will also recognize Brad as the father of Lauryn Bosstick, creator of The Skinny Confidential. Having Lauryn as a client and friend for the past four years has been a profound gift in my life — and training with Brad has given me a deeper appreciation for where so much of her brilliance and strength come from.


    This conversation is about faith, family, resilience, and the fire to keep living fully at every age.

  • Stop Dieting. Start Lifting. Patty Brewton’s Fitness Reboot
    Aug 12 2025

    Brent welcomes Patty Brewton—former D1 swimmer, mom of two, coach, and founder of Allez—to share her transformation from postpartum burnout to becoming a lean, strong, empowered woman through progressive overload and macro tracking.

    Patty breaks down exactly how she rebuilt her health during the chaos of COVID, why women need to stop chasing sweat and start chasing strength, and how she’s now helping others do the same—without giving up pizza, wine, or joy.

    From lifting with toddlers around to launching her own app, Patty drops no-fluff insights on fat loss, muscle gain, reverse dieting, and the massive mental freedom that comes from learning macros.

  • Functional Medicine Expert: The Silent Epidemic Making Women Sick with Dr. Joseph Radich
    Jul 16 2025

    Most women are told “your labs look normal” while they’re exhausted, inflamed, anxious, and unable to lose weight.

    But normal isn’t the same as optimal.


    In this episode, Brent sits down with Dr. Joseph Radich, a leading functional and regenerative medicine expert and founder of R3 Health, to unpack why the current healthcare system fails women — and what to do about it.


    They break down early diagnostics, hormone testing, full-body MRI, stem cell therapy, the truth about peptides, and what it actually means to take control of your health.


    This episode is both a warning and a wake-up call — especially if you’ve ever felt dismissed, misdiagnosed, or like your body is screaming and no one is listening.
