As a certified health coach (Institute for Integrative Nutrition) she combines her knowledge of nutrition with deep research and practice of Time Restricted Eating.

Episode237- What Is Chronic Disease with Dr. Lonnie Herman

A typical patient I see is someone suffering from an “incurable” and progressively devastating disease, such as Lupus, Parkinson’s Disease, MS, or Fibromyalgia.

By the time I see them, they’ve exhausted all the possible medical alternatives, spent a lot of money, have attempted an alternative medicine path, and only got worse.

These people include patients of all ages. They come from all over the world.

My greatest passion is giving true hope to every patient that walks through my door, and to fulfill the promise of helping them. So far, thousands of my patients have fully recovered their optimal health and their lives are now a reflection of a fulfilled hope they came to see me for. 

Helping people is my highest mission, and my unique way of contributing to humanity.

Episode204- How To Live Longer with Brian Littlefield

JOCKO FUEL, the company gaining worldwide recognition for shaking up the energy drink industry, is rapidly becoming a leader in nutritional supplements, functional foods, and beverages. Paving the way in product development is Brian Littlefield, Co-Founder and “Mad Scientist,” who is known for pushing the limits of what’s possible with clean ingredients and a balanced, holistic approach.

Littlefield’s devotion to health and wellness is rooted in his first-hand experience with his brother’s battle with childhood cancer and his father’s passion for a healthy diet and natural products. Even as he pursued a formal education and career in business, Littlefield continued to study nutrition and holistic medicine, as he believes they’re the difference between simply living and thriving in life. Years later, Littlefield found himself running a Brazilian Jiu-jitsu/MMA academy and opening a supplement store. There, he featured options he felt best aligned with his beliefs about nutrition, and shared his knowledge with professional athletes and fighters with whom he trained.

Eventually, Littlefield joined forces with now partner Pete Roberts, the founder of Origin, and they launched a nutritional division where he would become Chief Operating Officer and eventually Chief Product Officer. At the time, he was simply joining a partner to launch a niche nutritional division within the Brazilian Jiu-jitsu community. As their company continued to grow, they realized that they wanted to place greater emphasis on nutrition and expand to reach a wider audience. When the opportunity arose to completely rebrand and partner with former Navy Seal commander, podcaster and best selling author  Jocko Willink, Littlefield knew that the opportunity had finally arrived to do what he had always wanted: to create and distribute the best nutritional supplements in the industry.

Today, JOCKO FUEL is one of the most recognized brands across several sectors including health and wellness, fitness, mixed martial arts, and the U.S. Armed Forces. The company has a wide variety of all natural energy drinks, recovery supplements, protein powders, and much more with new products being released in the coming months. The company has launched with nationwide distribution in retailers like, Vitamin Shoppe, Wawa, HEB, and Meijer to name a few.

Episode230- How to Improve Balance with Trent McEntire

Trust me when I say that I know what it’s like to feel “stuck” or “broken.” I grew up in a town actually named Cement City, MI. Both of my parents abused alcohol and drugs. My dad died when I was seven. And I was born with Class 1 Cerebral Palsy, which created many physical restrictions I had to overcome. But also, my entire life, reading was a severe struggle. ​

Reading was so hard; I’d quickly fall asleep. Reading made me feel stupid and ashamed. No one knew how to fix my reading problem. They just kept saying that I didn’t read as well as I SHOULD. So I learned to hide my reading problem. I relied on audiobooks. I became a top athlete (a dancer). I grew up to be a Pilates rehab therapist, and by 21, I had a long waiting list of A-list athletes and celebrities. But I still couldn’t read well.

Then one day, I’m 33 years old, and I’m at a conference when I stop by a vision therapy booth that is giving free “visual coordination tests.” The test revealed I had a small “gap” in how my left and right eye “worked together,” and we did a few short exercises to close this visual gap. I left the booth thinking, “no big deal.”

But then, five minutes later…

My friend hands me a note from someone, and to my amazement, I can read it easily!

I used the rest of my time at the conference to practice and invent exercises that would get my eyes to better coordinate. On my flight home, I read my first entire book in one sitting, and in a matter of a few hours! That night, I told my wife that I was going to read the rest of the series. She said, “Who are you, and what have you done with my husband?”

That conference trip marked the end of my reading problem and the beginning of my dedication to “brain training.” Without knowing it, I’d already been helping people retrain their brain for a decade through my Pilates work. Now, I was on fire to take my passion for “problem-solving” to an entirely new level.

I spent the next decade of my life focused on inventing new ways for anyone to biohack their brain. Usually, brain training is expensive and clinical. I was on a mission to make it highly accessible and fun.

In 2015, I created the first version of BrainSpeed Ball to use in a brain training workshop I was leading. The BrainSpeed Ball was something I wish I would’ve had as a kid; a ball that was a form of vision therapy. It was my students who said, “You have to make and sell this ball!” And that’s how the BrainSpeed Ball came to be. One of the great joys of my life is witnessing tremendous and permanent changes in children, seniors, athletes, and those with neurological conditions.  

Today, I teach proprietary techniques and strategies worldwide to help improve brain performance. I dedicate a lot of my time to help kids that struggle with homework and school, and their parents. My mission is to help strengthen how every kid’s brain works. When a kid’s brain works better, schoolwork gets easier, but most importantly, that young person shifts from feeling broken to brilliant.

I did fail first grade. But sometimes our problems bring us to our purpose.
