Busy schedule, low energy, constantly feeling behind?

In Episode 126 of Your Ultimate Comeback, Brad (in studio) and Raquel (calling in remotely) tackle a real-life Q&A around one of the biggest struggles people face: how to stay healthy when life is chaotic.

From travel and packed schedules to work, family, and everything in between, it’s easy to feel like your health keeps slipping further down the priority list.

This episode breaks that cycle.

Brad and Raquel dive into:

• Why being “too busy” often leads to under-eating and low energy
• The subtle signs of burnout most people ignore
• Why strength training beats excessive cardio during stressful seasons
• How stress impacts sleep, recovery, and performance
• Simple ways to stabilize your routine when life feels out of control
• The role of peptides and recovery tools (like sauna and red light)

They also touch on a deeper mindset shift: sometimes improving your health starts with letting go of control, not tightening it.

If you’ve been feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, or stuck in survival mode, this episode will help you reset, simplify, and rebuild.

This is one of the most powerful conversations we’ve had on Your Ultimate Comeback.

In Episode 125, Brad and Raquel sit down with Garett Bolles, left tackle for the Denver Broncos and 1st-team All-Pro, to talk about the road that got him there — and it wasn’t easy.

From a turbulent childhood and time in juvenile detention to struggling with learning disabilities, Garett’s story is about more than football. It’s about resilience, identity, and choosing a different path when everything is stacked against you.

We get into:

• The reality behind his NFL journey — highs and lows
• Growing up misunderstood and navigating learning disabilities
• The moment he found purpose beyond football
• His work with at-risk youth and juvenile facilities
• Building the GB3 Foundation
• Opening the Bjorem + Bolles Childhood Apraxia Training Center
• Why giving back is bigger than the game

Garett shares how love, support, and mentorship changed his life — and how he’s now doing the same for others who need it most.

This episode isn’t about stats.
It’s about legacy, impact, and becoming the person you needed growing up.

If you’ve ever felt counted out, misunderstood, or like your past defines you — this conversation will hit home.

What if the reason you feel tired, anxious, or stuck… isn’t your workload, your workouts, or your schedule?

What if it’s your nervous system?

In Episode 124 of Your Ultimate Comeback, Brad and Raquel sit down with Kristin Granillo, Head of Program Operations at Paragon, to talk about something most people overlook: chronic stress and nervous system dysregulation.

Kristin shares her personal story of being stuck in a constant fight-or-flight state for over a decade — and how it affected her health, body composition, and connection to herself.

Together, they break down:

• How chronic stress impacts fat loss, energy, and hormones
• Why pushing harder can actually make things worse
• The connection between emotions and physiology
• What Heart Rate Variability (HRV) actually tells you
• Practical ways to improve HRV and regulate your nervous system
• Why relying too much on wearables can backfire
• Simple daily habits to reduce stress and feel more in control

You’ll also learn actionable tools like the Quick Coherence technique, morning rituals that set your nervous system up for success, and how to break negative stress cycles in real time.

If you’ve been feeling constantly “on,” overwhelmed, or disconnected from your body, this episode will help you slow down, reset, and rebuild from a better place.
