39 biohacks - Ben Greenfield #187
Have you ever heard the word biohacker, and not really known what it means? Okay, here's my definition. Biohacking = optimising mind, body and lifestyle to perform at your best. That's what I'm coming up with anyway. Whether you call it biohacking or something else, today's podcast is all about optimising with one of the world's top biohackers. Ben Greenfield. I saw Ben speak in Austin earlier this year and left with a long list of action points, things to do and buy. Ben was named as one of the world's top 100 most influential people in health and fitness, and has coached the world's top CEO's, chefs, biohackers, poker players, tennis, motocross and endurance competitors, and professional athletes from the UFC, the NHL, the NBA, the NFL and beyond – all while advising and investing in top companies in the health, fitness and nutrition industry. Ben is a brilliant, and as you'll hear, very unique individual. Will you do everything he recommends? Almost certainly not. You might think some of it is a little extreme, I'm not sure. Will you come away with a few new ideas… for sure. Here he is. 39 biohacks to optimise your health and life - Ben Greenfield #187

Moving better, feeling healthier, and sorting your dodgy back/knee/hip out - Dr. Ray Mclanahan #185
Nike insist their new trainers improve your running speed by 4%. I was quite interested in this, especially as I've been getting involved recently in minimalist footwear. Turns out, that this 4% stat might not be all its cracked up to be. And you could get 4% exercise improvement by natural means, not by buying a flash pair of trainers. Check out today's podcast with the awesome Dr. Ray Mclanahan. And check out CorrectToes too - that stuff is GOOD!

Burning Man life lessons, good times and dust storms - Stever Robbins #183
Burning Man is on at the moment, so without being too worthy (promise) I ask, what could one festival in the desert teach us about life. What we can learn from my guest's experiences without heading to the middle of nowhere to get copious amounts of dust in our face? And how does a productivity expert apply his professional skills to festival-going, and shouldn't he be just focusing on having fun? Stever Robbins is a well-known productivity expert, and he also happens to love Burning Man. And when I say love, he plans months in advance for this thing. He's known as the get-it-done guy, and it seems he's applied his get it done guy's skills to preparing for the world's most celebrated festival.

Love, Sex, Creativity, and Dopamine - Dr. Daniel Z. Lieberman #181
Why are we obsessed with the things we want and bored when we get them? Dopamine is the chemical of desire that always asks for more — more stuff, more stimulation, and more surprises. In pursuit of these things, it is undeterred by emotion, fear, or morality. Simply put, it is why we seek and succeed; it is why we discover and prosper. Yet, at the same time, it's why we gamble and squander. Tech has a part to play with dopamine too. Daniel Z. Lieberman finds it as hard as any of us to put the dopamine-providing phone down. So he wrote a book on it... What I love: he has a potentially life-changing proposal in the book: for how we can channel our dopamine more effectively. What is it? Listen on to find out.

30% more attractive? Donna Lancaster #180
You could be 30% more attractive after listening to this podcast! Donna Lancaster is a well-known life and relationship coach who specialises in the area of grief. Or as she puts it, she loves talking about grief. Which might sound weird, but once you hear how she helps us to properly cope with grief and loss, you'll get it. And there is a link between grief and being 30% more attractive. Honest! Bear with me. She used to be the head of training for The Hoffman Process and she now owns and runs The Bridge Retreat which is a personal development experience here in the UK. It's described as an emotional detox and a chance to rediscover your zest for life. Hmm, zest... I'm sure there's a relevance to this podcast somewhere. DISCOUNT ALERT: After the interview, Donna got back in touch and offered £250 off the six day retreat. You just need to mention ZESTOLOGY when you book.
