Blue Zones: How to live longer and happier lives w/ Dan Burden - #252

In this special episode of Bulletproof Radio, the tables are turned. Instead of being the interviewer, I’m being interviewed about something I've been interested in for a long time: psychedelics, biohacking, and the future of health optimization.On a brand new show, The Psychedelic News Hour (soon to be a podcast), I have a conversation with Dave Rabin, M.D., Ph.D. He’s a board-certified psychiatrist and neuroscientist, executive director of The Board of Medicine and co-founder of Apollo Neuroscience.The show co-host is Molly Maloof, M.D., a physician, Stanford lecturer, and ketamine-assisted psychotherapist.Dr. Maloof and Dr. Rabin bring together the brightest minds in the burgeoning field of psychedelic medicine. From researchers and investors to physicians and shamans to nonprofit pioneers and ethnobotanists, they shine a light on diverse perspectives from the front lines. Their mission is to share the latest knowledge from medical and scientific research with the public to enhance safety, education, awareness, and access to the rapidly evolving field of psychedelic medicine.Both of them are on the leading edge of psychedelic science and the future of medicine. And they’ve both been guests on Bulletproof Radio, too.On The Psychedelic News Hour, we discuss the past, present, and future of biohacking. We also get into the role psychedelics can play in reaching our full potential. And, we answer some audience questions.Check it out!SPECIAL OFFER FOR BULLETPROOF RADIO LISTENERS: Get 15% of an Apollo Neuro device.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

They're actually psychological bacteria impacting your transmitters, which at the end of the day, how we feel, how we perform, in so many ways, comes down to having the right balance of neurotransmitters.”Wade is a former three-time Canadian natural bodybuilding champion. Matt is an experienced strength and conditioning coach for professional athletes, a self-defense instructor, and has been formulating supplements for more than a decade. They know a lot about human performance and are constantly raising the bar on new ways to biohack your body systems.You’ll learn a lot from this discussion of psychobiotics and how they affect mood and mental performance.Enjoy!

When we develop a faith of our own understanding... and I always say it doesn't matter what you call it, all that matters is that you call upon it.

In this episode of Bulletproof Radio, my guest is career advisor Steve Herz. He leads a large sports and entertainment talent and marketing firm, and helps athletes, CEOs, lawyers, entrepreneurs and young professionals move forward in their careers.According to Steve, our longing for human connection reflects an important truth—we respond more positively to people who have the ability to make a deep human connection with us. That “connectability,” as he calls it, is imperative to our personal career success—whether you’re looking for work, worried about keeping your job during a recession, or trying to climb your way to the top when things start looking up. “I say don't take yes for an answer because so often in life, you think you're hearing, yes, and then six months later, you're on the wrong end of a downsizing or a reorg and you're out of a job or someone else gets a promotion,” Steve says. “Well, if you were so great and everything was so, ‘Yes.’ Why aren't you where you want to be in life?"And that’s why he called his new book “Don't Take Yes for an Answer: Using Authority, Warmth, and Energy to Get Exceptional Results.”Steve gives also gives solid tips on how to develop your own A.W.E.: authority, warmth and energy. Those are the components of what you should be looking to improve once you don't take yes for an answer.We also get into why constructive criticism can move your career forward in big ways.“If I realized that as the employee, that I'm increasing my value to you or to the world in terms of more customers, better getting along with colleagues, better leadership, fellowship, whatever it might be, I'm helping myself,” Steve says. “So you should be thinking about that (constructive) criticism as a gift and also take it selfishly.”Steve is president of the Montag Group in NYC, an agency that represents over 250 of today’s top journalists, broadcast executives, and media personalities—at networks like CBS, CNN, MSNBC, FOX News, ESPN and elsewhere.After his advice in this episode, you’ll be ready to crush it at whatever personal or professional step you take next.Enjoy!

2020 has given many people time to think and reassess their personal and professional lives. Some are considering or have been forced to make career changes. In this episode of Bulletproof Radio, my guest gives readers a candid behind-the-scenes look at what it’s really like to build a creative career. Jeff Madoff says making a living with your ideas is a marathon not a sprint. In his brand new book, “Creative Careers: Making a Living with Your Ideas,” he draws on his own decades of experience and also the experience of more than 40 leading entrepreneurs, artists, and business leaders to give you an accessible path that will lead to success in whatever new career field you choose.“Every entrepreneur that starts a business is creating something out of nothing, that's creativity,” Jeff says. “I define creativity as the compelling need to bring about change.”Jeff Madoff began his career as a fashion designer and was chosen one of the top 10 designers in the U.S. He then switched careers to be a director, photographer and writer.He founded Madoff Productions, a film production company that creates award-winning branded content including commercials, web content, music videos, and documentaries. His articles have appeared online in the Wall Street Journal, USA Today, Newsweek, Huffington Post and other major publications. He’s since expanded his career to include teaching, book and playwriting, and theatrical producing.“Don't say no to yourself,” Jeff says. “Don't disqualify yourself by thinking you're not good enough, your idea doesn't have enough value, all those kinds of things. And then you don't do anything. Because a sure way to make sure nothing happens is to do nothing. So, there's a risk involved in even starting. And a lot of people are afraid to make that leap because of doubt. And they're afraid of taking that risk and not succeeding.”Enjoy!

In this episode of Bulletproof Radio, we’re talking about the value of mentoring. This year, I’ve been bringing you guests to help you get through challenging times for personal and economic wellness. Many employees, business owners and even entrepreneurs are concerned and anxious about the future state of their businesses, careers, and families. Uncertainty drives fear and fear makes it harder to think. So, I'm bringing people in to say, hey, here's some tools, some facts, some knowledge to help you turn off the fear. My guest today, Kevin Harrington, has a way to make sure your personal and professional lives not only do well but thrive during this uncertainty and stress. He says is as simple as finding a mentor.“One of the challenges entrepreneurs have is they're afraid to do it,” Kevin says. “They don't know what to say or where to go. Sometimes you just have to raise your hand and just go for it. Absolutely. And the universe has a way of bringing things back to the people that do need them, but you can't just sit.”“And when COVID first hit, a lot of people were burying their heads in the sand. That's the time that you have to get out and start connecting. Connect and collaborate and do some things together because at times of strife like that, it's important not to give up but to see if there's opportunities and what problems can you solve right now. Mentors focus on problems and solutions.”Kevin goes into detail on how mentors can benefit your professional growth in his new book, “Mentor to Millions: Secrets of Success in Business, Relationships, and Beyond.”Kevin’s the original “shark” on the hit TV show Shark Tank, the creator of the infomercial, pioneer of the “As Seen on TV brand,” and co-founding board member of the Entrepreneur’s Organization. His work behind the scenes of business ventures has produced more than $5 billion in global sales, the launch of more than 500 products, and the making of dozens of millionaires. He’s launched massively successful products like The Food Saver, Ginsu Knives, The Great Wok of China, The Flying Lure, and many more. He's been called the Entrepreneur’s Entrepreneur and the Entrepreneur Answer Man, because he knows the challenges unique to start-ups and has a special passion for helping entrepreneurs succeed.
