About this listen

It's time to take a fundamentally different approach to improving your health and energy. I've seen patients and clients obsessively tweak diet and exercise, while ignoring the connection between the mind and metabolism. Fasting longer and exercising harder has resulted in many broken bodies and defeated minds in my clinic, and I've personally been down that road as well. This podcast takes a different approach that explores the intersection of metabolic health and mindfulness through science, deep personal exploration, and creative storytelling to provide a more balanced approach to health that will improve energy and well-being.

  • S2E8: Prompting the Machine
    Aug 28 2025

    Prompting AI chatbots is a new skillset humanity has recently acquired. In this episode we use our understanding of how LLMs (Large Language Models) work to gain a deeper understanding of ourselves in an effort to free our minds from ego. We'll cover some of the following:

    • How AI engines mirror the way our ego runs on old scripts and algorithms
    • Why middle-of-the-night “why” and “how” questions usually come from ego, not your authentic self
    • Meet WAYDE, the imaginary AI Agent I created to help free me
    • Prompts to break mental loops and rewire your responses
    • How habitual self-prompting can help liberate your mind and optimize your physiology

    In my clinic, I'm seeing too many individuals with heart disease that's getting missed due to imperfect risk calculators and AI predictions. There are some serious blindspots in our current risk assessment tools. In this episode, we cover:

    • The current risk calculators and why they often underestimate risk
    • Typical examples of a mismatch between true and estimated risk
    • Key blindspots risk calculators miss routinely

  • S2E6: The Pleasure of Displeasure
    Jun 24 2025

    An entry from my journal and a passage from J.Krishnamurti inspired my latest episode, which views displeasure and discontent in an entirely new way. I share personal stories and lessons from my own life, and from the highly successful patients I see in my clinic who experience emotional and metabolic health challenges despite material success. Some topics include:

    • The pleasure-displeasure cycle explained through my summer trips to India
    • Why "extraordinary discontent" is often essential for growth
    • Deep lessons from the movie, The Matrix (even if you haven't seen it)
    • My own cycles of discontent and how they led to growth
    • The link between metabolism and mindset
