#27 88% of People Are Doing Fitness Wrong | Rob Darnbrough
Only 8% of the population gets the minimum effective dose of exercise, and the fitness industry’s response has been to make workouts more fun rather than more effective. Rob Darnbrough argues this approach is broken; we’ve embraced technology in every aspect of life except how we train our bodies, still using dumbbells and barbells that would look perfectly familiar to someone from the 1960s. With this, he and his son Connor built the Smart Fit Method technology with a radical premise that exercise should be treated like medicine, with testing, personalized dosing, and measurable outcomes. Why are we still measuring fitness by hours spent instead of biological age reversed?

#26 The First Woman to Climb the 7 Summit in 7 Continents | Jenn Drummond
A near-fatal car accident at 38 forced Jenn Drummond to confront an uncomfortable question: How many dreams had she pushed to “someday” that might never come? What emerged was a complete reorientation around choosing how to live rather than defaulting to external expectations, ultimately leading her to become the first woman to summit the second highest peak on every continent. Her journey reveals that significant achievements aren’t about removing fear, they’re about finding challenges scary enough to reveal our truest selves.  Learn what Wharton Business School will never teach you!  Sign up for the ANTI-MBA today: https://bit.ly/46vct60 Click here to order your personalized poster!: https://bit.ly/46J08MS Get Jenn Drummond’s book, “BreakProof: 7 Strategies to Build Resilience and Achieve Your Life Goals“ here: https://bit.ly/48xpL4r   Listen to "Seek Your Summit with Jenn" on all your favorite platforms!

#24 How to Overcome Nervous System Dysregulation in Business | Lachlan Mitchell
Every entrepreneur hits a ceiling, but many people never realise the ceiling isn’t in their business strategy, it’s in their nervous system capacity and unprocessed childhood experiences. Lachlan Mitchell shares why traditional therapy often perpetuates problems by retelling stories rather than resolving root causes, and how modalities like breath work, shadow work, and somatic processing create the internal space required for the next level of external success.

#14 How to Value Your Business for Maximum Exit Price | CINA Wellness Webinar
The businesses that command premium valuations share one secret: employees who act like owners because they actually are owners. Serial entrepreneur David Guttman reveals why giving employees modest equity stakes often increases company value by far more than the percentage you give away, and how this strategy transforms your team’s approach to customer service, efficiency, and business growth. Learn how to structure equity deals that protect you while motivating your team, why vested interests eliminate employee anxiety during the sale process, and how quarterly board meetings with transparent financial reporting can make your business significantly more attractive to potential buyers.  Timestamps: 00:00 Intro of Show 07:40 Outline of the Webinar 09:37 How Are Businesses Valued? 15:42 Exit Considerations 23:05 Finding a Buyer 29:50 Negotiation and Due Diligence 45:04 Tax Implications 48:21 Legacy, Lessons, and What’s Next? 52:25 Q&A Session Watch the “Business of Wellness Podcast” every Thursday at 8 AM EST on YouTube: https://bit.ly/3ZGK2yv Connect with David Guttman Website: https://bit.ly/4jclYvK Instagram: https://bit.ly/4iARMe9 TikTok: https://bit.ly/3P19NVm Facebook: https://bit.ly/49CQjQx X: https://bit.ly/4gH28aR LinkedIn: https://bit.ly/3Bx7Tc2

#11 How Light and Sound Rewire Your Brain for Better Sleep | Dr. Patrick Porter
The most successful people I know aren’t the ones who grind 24/7, they’re the ones who understand that rest is a competitive advantage. Dr. Patrick Porter’s research with Microsoft and Google programmers revealed something that completely changed my perspective: when top performers took just 20 minutes for a “brain break” at 2 PM, they produced 26% more work and saw their sleep improve 47%, happiness increase 54%, and work-life balance improve over 80%. Now, I realize that our brains need deep delta sleep to clean themselves through the glial lymphatic system, and without it, we’re running on fumes while thinking we’re being productive.  Connect with Dr. Patrick Porter: Get Dr. Patrick Porter’s book, “BrainTap: Unlock the Secret to a Stress-Free Life in 3 Simple Steps“ here: https://bit.ly/4fBiVg7    Listen to "BrainFitness Podcast with Dr. Patrick Porter" on all your favorite platforms!

#10 Cole Kosco: The Truth About Fast Food and Weight Loss
The hardest conversation I ever had was when a coach looked me in the eye and said, “You’re not good enough,” — but for Cole Kosco, former college athlete turned fitness influencer, that moment became his greatest gift. Despite having pro-athlete genetics (his grandfather replaced Mickey Mantle), Cole didn’t make it to the big leagues, yet he told me this was the best thing that ever happened to him. As he puts it, “The second you point your finger outward, you lose all power. Point at yourself, and you control the outcome.” His competitive drive didn’t disappear, it just found a new arena in content creation and entrepreneurship. Sometimes, our greatest setbacks are simply preparation for something better we couldn’t have imagined.  Connect with Cole Kosco: Website: https://bit.ly/3GYBZrS  YouTube: https://bit.ly/46L0YJv  Instagram: https://bit.ly/3UV3Egl  TikTok: https://bit.ly/3HnDzDA  Facebook: https://bit.ly/41tSbIk  LinkedIn: https://bit.ly/4m3R9en  TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 Intro 00:26 Cole Kosco’s Back Story 07:27 Transitioning from Sports to Entrepreneurship 09:13 Eating in Moderation (including Fast Food) 13:22 Launch and Objectives of His New App (Menufit) 16:39 Goal-Setting Philosophy 29:38 Mindfulness Practices 33:30 Cole’s Research-Based Social Media Content 40:17 Focusing on the Importance of Health  47:17 Benefits of Having Quality Sleep 51:23 Advice to His Younger Self 57:50 Staying Grounded 1:00:07 Connect with Cole Watch the “Cryocon: Business of Wellness Podcast” every Thursday at 8 AM EST on YouTube:  https://bit.ly/3UAa5p4  Connect with David Guttman Website: https://bit.ly/4jclYvK Instagram: https://bit.ly/4iARMe9 TikTok: https://bit.ly/3P19NVm Facebook: https://bit.ly/49CQjQx X: https://bit.ly/4gH28aR LinkedIn: https://bit.ly/3Bx7Tc2 SUBSCRIBE TO: https://www.youtube.com/@OfficialDavidGuttman Download the “David Guttman Podcast” on all your favorite podcast platforms: Spotify: ​​https://spoti.fi/3VE3fzV Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/3VLzm0v
