  • Rejection in Hollywood Taught Me This About Success | feat. Luke Cook

    Rejection in Hollywood Taught Me This About Success | feat. Luke Cook
    Feb 16 2026
    Actor, creator, and entrepreneur Luke Cook joins Gabby Reece for an honest, funny, and deeply reflective conversation about creativity, rejection, faith, and building a meaningful life.Luke shares his unconventional journey from growing up in Australia as the youngest of five, to chasing comedy and acting in Hollywood — including seven years of near-constant auditions with little visible success. He speaks candidly about rejection, identity, and why loving the craft itself matters more than external validation.The conversation moves fluidly between creativity and discipline, faith and doubt, ego and humility. Luke reflects on fatherhood, marriage, and the grounding power of family — as well as the importance of play, presence, and not taking success (or failure) too seriously.They also explore Luke’s entrepreneurial ventures, including building a “no-weird-stuff” protein shake brand, creative coaching for founders, and using humor to communicate without shame. Throughout, Luke emphasizes curiosity, integrity, and joy as essential ingredients for longevity — in work and in life.This episode is about staying in the game, trusting the process, and remembering that success isn’t a destination — it’s how you live along the way.⏱️ CHAPTERS- Intro & meeting Luke- Growing up the youngest of five- Early love of performance and comedy- Discipline, training, and loving the craft- Moving to LA & chasing the dream- Years of auditions and rejection- Ego, ambition, and humility- Faith, doubt, and finding a north star- Marriage, fatherhood, and family grounding- Creativity vs. external validation- Building a values-driven business- Content, comedy, and honest communication- Relationships, partnership, and play- What success really looks like- Staying joyful in uncertainty- Closing reflections WHAT STAYED WITH MELoving the work matters more than loving the outcome.Rejection doesn’t end careers — quitting does.Discipline follows passion.When you care deeply enough, showing up becomes natural.Ego needs humility to stay healthy.Confidence fuels performance; humility keeps you grounded.Family changes the definition of success.Responsibility, presence, and play become the real markers.Faith doesn’t eliminate doubt.It gives you somewhere to return when things feel unstable.Joy is a choice.Especially when the path forward isn’t clear.WHY IT’S WORTH SLOWING DOWN FOR THISWe live in a culture that celebrates instant success and overnight wins — often ignoring the long, invisible seasons of work that come before them.Luke’s story is a reminder that staying in the game matters.That creativity doesn’t expire.And that meaning is built through patience, integrity, and connection — not applause.If you’re navigating uncertainty, rejection, or a season of waiting, this conversation offers perspective worth sitting with.FIND LUKELuke CookInstagram & TikTok: https://www.instagram.com/thelukecookProtein brand: https://getshakewell.comFOR MORE ON GABBYInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/gabbyreece/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@gabbyreeceofficialYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@GabbyReeceThe Gabby Reece Show Podcast: Available on all major platformsEpisode sponsors:Get up to 30% off OneSkin with the code GABBYREECE at https://www.oneskin.co/GABBYREECE #oneskinpodDon’t let another year go by feeling less than your best.

  • Why Muscle Is the Key to Longevity (and Most People Are Ignoring It) | feat. Dr. Gabrielle Lyon

    Why Muscle Is the Key to Longevity (and Most People Are Ignoring It) | feat. Dr. Gabrielle Lyon
    Feb 2 2026

    Dr. Gabrielle Lyon—physician and leading voice in muscle-centric medicine— returns to talk with Gabby Reece about her new book, Forever Strong: The Playbook—a practical, tactical guide to building strength for life. They unpack why the health conversation went sideways into weight-loss obsession, why sarcopenia (loss of muscle and strength) may be the next major epidemic—especially in the era of GLP-1s—and how muscle impacts everything from blood sugar to long-term brain health.


    They also get into what “neutrality” looks like for high performers, why consistency is less about motivation and more about clarity, and how to simplify protein and training without making it complicated. Plus: recovery, minimum effective dose, intramuscular fat vs. body fat, blood flow restriction training, and why Dr. Lyon keeps her kids off screens.
