Have you heard about Hyperbaric Fitness?
This undiscovered modality is helping people unlock recovery and wellness at a whole new level.
I was invited to bring some of my friends for a group dive and we got to learn from Founder, Joe Mabe, all about diving science and the incredible work that he and his team have done to help people recover from a plethora of disease states as well as optimize athletic performance.
The experience is extremely safe and surprisingly grounding. My favorite part was getting to sit and connect with folks while we were getting some healing in together!
You are not actually diving but simply getting into a pressurized tank
There is a ton of space
You feel amazingly light afterwards
The benefits continue to last for a full day after your dive
These guys have been operating for over a decade in Swanzey but just opened their second facility in Hooksett.
And when you head over for your first dive, mention Dr. BeeWell for an introductory offer.
Giddy up!
I felt it was really important to SHOW you guys this!Over the last few months I’ve been working with Dr. Ali atShifting Tides, and it’s hard to overstate how much it’s changed things for me. Not just my posture, but how I’m using my energy day to day. How I stand, how I move, how I actually feel inside my own body. What she does isn’t the classic crack-and-go chiropractic. It’sway more subtle, way more intelligent. She reads your system like a story. She finds these patterns you’ve been carrying forever… and helps your body reorganize in a way that feels natural, not forced.Truly, I’ve learned how to LET GO and have watched my bodyunwind. Ali is the real deal. She cares, she pays attention, and she works in a way that actually shifts something deeper than muscle and bone.Get on that table and… GIDDY UP! https://www.shiftingtidesnh.com/
There are people who talk about healing… and then there are people who’ve lived it.
Emily from Foxfire Healing is one of those people.
Before she was a Kambo practitioner, before the jungle training, before the lineage and the altars and the teachings, she was an IV drug user fighting for her life. She had Hep C. She had lost her spark. And nothing in the medical system was helping.
Then she sat with Kambo.It didn’t save her… It woke something up.
The clarity, the purge, the energy - it rebuilt her from the inside out.
Her labs changed. Her life changed. Her path changed.
And instead of running from the hard parts, she went straight into the heart of it — all the way to the Amazon.
Training. Apprenticing. Meeting the frogs. Learning the ethics, the lineage, the right way to hold this medicine.
That’s why people trust her.
That's why I TRUST her
And that’s why I wanted to do this episode.
This conversation isn’t about hype or shortcuts.
It’s about tradition, science, belief and the responsibility we carry when we talk about healing.
If you’ve ever wanted a real, grounded understanding of Kambo…or you just want to hear the story of a woman who went through the fire and came out a healer…This one’s worth your time.
AND I didn't even mention the best part... After the proper podcast, I recorded myself doing a Kambo ceremony for you all to see. I felt great afterwards and feel even better now.
Follow along for the journey!

You know when someone just radiates purpose? That’s Natalie Tilton.
Former Division 1 athlete, mom, and founder of Ability Allies Physical Therapy, Natalie has built something rare — a thriving, heart-led PT practice that still takes insurance and delivers true one-on-one care.
She started in her basement in 2020… and now runs four clinics across the Seacoast.
All built on grit, gratitude, and a refusal to settle for the broken healthcare model.
In this conversation, we talk about what it really takes to follow your purpose, why “success isn’t always pretty,” and how the best kind of medicine starts with human connection.
This one’s for anyone chasing alignment, not approval.
That’s a giddy up.

Most people in the biohacking world know red-light therapy for the flashy marketing. That means shiny panels, endless “revolutionary wavelength” claims, and thousand-dollar price tags.Andrew LaTour isn’t about any of that.He’s an engineer, a skeptic, and the founder of GembaRed, a company that quietly built a cult following by doing things the right way — evidence-based, affordable, and honest. In this episode we dig into how he took on the red-light industry by exposing bad science, inflated prices, and high-intensity gimmicks that were actually making people worse.We talk about:How Andrew’s own health struggles led him to photo biomodulation and why less light can actually be more healing.The biggest lies being pushed in the red-light world - from “invented wavelengths” to “FDA-approved” nonsense.What EMFs, flicker, and dosage really mean for your health.Why sunlight is still the gold standard for human biology - and how red-light therapy can complement it, not replace it.Why understanding your skin tone, environment, and circadian rhythm actually changes how you should use light therapy.Andrew brings clarity, integrity, and a refreshing humility to a space that desperately needs it. No gimmicks. Just light, physics, and truth.If you’ve ever wondered whether red-light therapy actually works, and how to do it without getting duped, this episode is your guide.Giddy Up.Connect with Andrew https://www.instagram.com/gembared/Order Red Light https://gembared.com/
At just 19 years old, Lexi Noel has already lived through and overcome something most adults never face -- a battle with anorexia that turned into a mission to heal herself naturally and help others do the same.
From questioning the advice she was given by the system to rebuilding her body through real food, faith, and movement, Lexi’s story is powerful proof that the human body, and spirit, can heal when given the chance.
We talk about everything from her journey with raw milk and whole foods to the MAHA movement, mental health, and how faith anchored her through it all. She tells me all about her supportive family, her advocacy for healthy eating, and her experiences at various health conferences.
Ultimately, It’s a reminder that health isn’t found in ultra-processed promises but rather built through authenticity, discipline, and belief. Lexi is living it and encouraging others to do the same.
Grateful to have had this conversation.

If you told me ten years ago that I’d be sitting down with a guy who helps people reconnect with their own soul using mushrooms… I’d probably have raised an eyebrow.
But that’s exactly what Rory Stephens is doing — and doing with integrity.
He’s the Associate Minister at Sacred Earth Sanctuary, a psilocybin church tucked away in Amesbury, Massachusetts. It’s not a mega-retreat or a high-volume psychedelic factory — it’s small, intentional, rooted in tradition. The mushroom is the sacrament. The goal? Connection. With yourself, with Spirit, with truth.
Rory also runs Inner Evolutions, a self-mastery coaching program focused on integration, emotional fluency, and nervous system regulation. And I’ll say this: he’s not selling spiritual quick-fixes. He’s done the deep work.
This man has walked through hell and learned how to alchemize it — and now he teaches others to do the same.
We talk about healing, burnout, the trap of perfectionism, why suffering can be sacred, and what the future of psychedelic care should look like — blending spiritual truth with scientific rigor, without losing the humanity in it all.
If you’ve ever felt lost, disconnected, or like your nervous system is just cooked... this one’s for you.
Let’s get into it. Giddy up.

The gym-owning Marine is back—and back big. 💥
We kick it off with the return of the mustache (finally, men can flourish again 😎). Then Alec and I torch some of the fakery in the fitness world—like dudes juicing on TRT while selling “clean” diet plans. Nope… we’re not buying it.
From there, it’s all about parenting. How badass it is, how to stay strong when your kids are running the show, and the best hacks we’ve learned from the dad-life grind. Alec’s seen thousands of clients over the last decade, and he drops real talk you won’t hear on Instagram reels. And it's likely not what you think - it's time to double down!!
And don’t sleep on this: Sept 26th is the grand re-opening of On Target. Food, drinks, giveaways, and a charity auction for Gather. It’s going to be a night where the Seacoast fitness community shows up big.
Giddy up!!! 🔥

This episode is with Dr. Ali Fleming, a chiropractor who’s doing something very different than the snap-crackle-pop most of us think of.
Ali practices Network Spinal, a gentle yet powerful technique that helps the body release tension, reorganize, and actually heal itself. We talk about:
✨ Why healing starts in the nervous system
✨ The hidden cost of chronic tension and stress
✨ How chiropractic survived attacks from mainstream medicine
✨ Moving from “sick care” to true preventative health
✨ The role of energy, breath, and awareness in transformation
Ali’s approach is authentic, human, and rooted in connection—not just adjustments. After working with her, I can tell you… this stuff is as real as it gets.
If you’ve ever been skeptical about chiropractic—or just curious about what’s possible when you give your body permission to heal—this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.
She is rooted in community and is one of the most uplifting and positive people I have ever met. I am truly grateful this person and the modality she teaches are in my life. You will be too. Check it out!

Today’s episode is with Ryan Yurista — coach, co-owner of On Target Fitness, former college athlete, and a guy who lives what he teaches. He’s got the degrees, the coaching chops, and the mindset dialed in. Ryan’s a reader, a thinker, and someone who takes the lessons off the page and puts them to work in the gym and in life. He is all about consistency, community, and keeping the process simple.
We talk about self-determination theory, why learning and showing up matter more than quick fixes, and how strength and movement open doors in the rest of your life. From building a gym culture where people actually hang out outside of workouts, to raising a family while running two locations, Ryan brings a grounded, real-world take on what it means to invest in yourself and the people around you.
This one is STRONG!

This episode is with Dan Blakeslee. Dan is a musician, artist, and all-around creative force. If you’ve spent any time on the Seacoast, you’ve seen his fingerprints everywhere — whether it’s his prints hanging in local cafés or his name on the bill at your favorite venue. He’s led the Calabash Club from subways to festival stages, blending grit, heart, and a relentless creative drive.
We get into his origin story — growing up surrounded by jazz, hip hop, punk, and country, finding guitar in art school as a way to decompress, and building a life around both music and visual art. He shares the grind of booking his own shows, the joy of connecting with intimate audiences, and his vision for getting his work out into the world without sacrificing the authenticity that fuels it.
We talk home turf vs. the road, his deep connection to nature, and the loss of his younger brother, and how those experiences shaped the way he creates and lives today. It’s a conversation about craft, community, and carving your own lane without compromise.
And we sang some songs!

Today’s episode is with Dagan Migirditch.
Dagan is the co-founder of Liar’s Bench Beer Co. in Portsmouth. But more than that, he’s a guy who gives a damn. About beer, sure. But also about people. About story. About building a place that actually feels like a place.
We talk about what it means to create real community. Not the buzzword version. The kind you can feel in your gut when you walk in the door. We get into authenticity, alcohol as a tool for connection (and disconnection), and how his brewery became a third space for the Seacoast.
And then we take it further. Into Portsmouth's housing crisis, zoning reform, yoga, nervous stomachs, capitalism’s shadow side, and why modest living shouldn’t feel like a failure.
It’s real. It’s raw. And it’s local. This one's got some bite. Giddy up.

Tony’s a force. Owner of Atlantic Gymnastics in Portsmouth and Dover. Founder of Gym Momentum. International coach. City councilman. Dad. Blogger. Still doing handstands at 59. Gamba, baby.
We talk about building something real, from scratch. What it takes to create a business that actually means something. How to lead a family, a team, a town. And what happens when you stop chasing the message and start doing the damn thing.
Tony’s got thoughts on everything from youth sports and parenting to campaign finance, healthcare, and the collapse of the middle class. And he’s not wrong.
If you’ve ever tried to build anything, your body, a business, a community, then get in here, this ones for you.

Today’s episode is with Keelia Ryan. Keelia is a medicine woman, a trauma survivor, and space holder who doesn’t just talk about healing, but lives it.
She is the founder of Plant Allied Recovery, a growing community for people navigating trauma, addiction, and everything in between, through connection, integrity, and conscious work with plant and fungal medicines.
She’s walked through fire—kidnapped as a teen, hooked on drugs, surviving homelessness, and losing her partner to suicide. But this isn’t a story about what broke her. It’s about what built her
We talk about AA, the limitations of abstinence-only rhetoric, and the power of choosing a path that’s rooted in community, honesty, and aligned medicine. We talk about nervous system healing, safe psychedelic spaces, and why “recovery” means more than just putting the bottle down.
Keelia’s the kind of person who brings ceremony into real life. Who teaches you that integrity matters more than image. That healing isn’t a trend, it’s your birthright.

Today's episode is with Kathleen Beede — physical therapist, mom, hiker, and owner of Eagle PT in Dover, NH.
She walked away from her hospital job when they told her to get the COVID vaccine. Started her own practice. Didn’t take insurance. Built something from scratch, based on her values.
Freedom. Sovereignty. Service. Strength.
We talked about healing the body through breath, movement, food, and intuition.We talked about hiking in snowshoes. Parenting teenage boys with discipline and love.
We talked about rebuilding trust in your body — and what happens when the system you served turns on you.
Kathleen’s the real deal
This is a story about alignment, resilience, and reclaiming your health on your own terms.

Today’s episode is with John Moro.John’s a pharmacist — but not the kind who rushes your script and tosses a bottle in a bag. He’s the owner of The Herbal Path, and one of the few folks I’ve met who took the white coat path and still found his way back to the Earth.We talk about how that happened. How his dad’s heart surgery derailed his plans and pulled him into pharmacy. How he climbed the ladder, got the MBA, ran districts, answered to spreadsheets. And how COVID cracked the whole thing open.John walks me through the exact moment he reconnected with the founder of The Herbal Path, the chance encounter on a street corner, and how that led to leaving the corporate machine behind for good.We talk chronic disease, polypharmacy, the real reason so many people are sick, and what happens when healing becomes a business model instead of a birthright.And we get into herbs. The good ones, the dangerous ones, the forgotten ones. Mushrooms, too. Echinacea, maca, ashwagandha — adaptogens, immune modulators, the works. We talk about why lavender wrecked one woman’s skin and why marshmallow root might save the trees. We even get into creatine and hydrogen therapy.But this episode isn’t about pills or powders. It’s about connection. It's about returning to the path.Giddy up.

Today’s episode is with Alex Tarnava. Alex is a self-taught scientist, a relentless innovator, and the creator of the world’s first open-cup molecular hydrogen tablet. He’s also the co-founder of Inhale H2 and the author of The Final Thought War, a book that pulls no punches when it comes to Big Pharma, academia, and the future of free thought.During the episode, Alex walks me through the moment his health collapsed and how that led to an obsessive journey to understand inflammation, biohacking, and ultimately, hydrogen therapy. He takes us from his garage experiments with magnesium powder to FDA-grade production runs, and the unlikely relationships with chemists and skeptics who helped him prove the doubters wrong. We dive deep into how scientific consensus gets manufactured, what AI is doing to our minds, and how decentralized networks might be the only way out.Ultimately this was a powerful conversation with someone who’s not just disrupting health and science—but reimagining what it means to seek truth in a world built to suppress it.

Today’s episode is with Steven Wright.
Steven is a former Red Sox All-Star, a two-time World Series winner, and one of the last knuckleballers to throw heat in a game that no longer has room for feel. But what makes this episode powerful isn’t the stats. It’s the story behind them
.
Steven walks me through the climb, from the Cape League to Fenway. And the fall that followed—injuries, surgeries, silence, and a league that stops calling the second you’re no longer useful. We talk about pain, addiction, the broken pipeline of pro sports, and how he found a way back through cannabis, purpose, and telling the truth.
We get into what’s changed in baseball, why the culture’s lost its edge, and what happens when players are treated like products instead of people. He also breaks down the work he’s doing now. He’s bringing real integrity to the cannabis space, advocating for healing, and trying to build something better than what he came from.
He’s sharp. He’s grounded. He’s got nothing left to prove. Giddy up.
