This episode is brought to you by Strong Coffee Company and LMNT. Navigating the world of health and fitness can be a daunting task, especially with the barrage of sensationalized social media content clouding our judgment. But here's the game-changer: it's all about going back to basics. Hydration, nutrition, and sleep – the triumvirate of good health. Join me and Adam Bornstein, author of "You Can't Screw This Up," as we discuss the importance of cultivating situational awareness and avoiding self-sabotage. You will hear Adam’s unfiltered insights on building sustainable habits instead of chasing the next big thing or quick fixes. We'll also delve into the world of Adam's writings and his journey as an author and consultant to legends like LeBron James and Arnold Schwarzenegger! Get ready to prioritize practicality, sustainability, and balance on your health and fitness journey. Adam and I also discuss how mindset can power us through life’s hurdles, how can we turn adversity into fuel for personal growth, and even share heartbreaking yet empowering stories of loss and resilience. Listen in and discover how a strong mindset can shape positive behaviors in health, nutrition, and fitness, helping individuals thrive in any circumstance. Follow Adam @bornfitness Follow Chase @chase_chewning ----- In this episode, you will learn... Why a strong mindset is essential for overcoming adversity and maintaining health, nutrition, and fitness habits. How our behaviors are often shaped by our mindset and self-perception, which are crucial for long-term health and success. Instead of focusing on extreme measures, prioritize practical and sustainable habits for a balanced lifestyle. Sleep, hydration, and nutrition are fundamental to maintaining good health, but often overlooked due to sensationalized social media content. Embracing failure can help us anticipate and navigate self-sabotage, leading to more successful health and fitness plans. The concept of inversion can help us build successful plans by starting from potential failures and working backwards. It's crucial to understand our individual preferences and lifestyles before choosing a health or fitness plan. Adherence to a plan is more important than the plan itself, emphasizing the importance of personalization in health and fitness. Building self-awareness and understanding where you might fail can help you identify plans that are more likely to work. Striving to be "so good they can't ignore you" is a powerful mindset that can lead to personal and professional success. ----- Episode resources: Learn more about Strong New York Watch and subscribe on YouTube Get your LMNT hot electrolyte drink mix at https://www.DrinkLMNT.com/everforward  Save 15% on organic lattes and coffee with code CHASE at https://www.StrongCoffeeCompany.com

Regular, deep sleep is vital in the recovery process and can protect the brain from the buildup of waste materials. Understanding the biochemical and physiological processes behind performance and recovery can help identify and address the root causes of issues.  Nitric oxide plays a critical role in the body, helping with blood vessel dilation and delivering more blood to muscles. However, as people age, the production of nitric oxide decreases, making it important to find ways to stimulate its production.  Chronic inflammation is highly damaging to the body, impacting everything from muscle performance to cardiovascular health. ----- Episode resources: Learn more about Kineon Labs Light therapy for bipolar disorder: a case series in women The impact of wavelengths of LED light-therapy on endothelial cells Red Light Therapy Improves Reaction Time in Athletes Watch and subscribe on YouTube

Prepare for a journey to a time when an ancient species co-existed with Homo sapiens. My esteemed guest, Dr. Lee Berger - one of Time Magazine's 100 most influential people of the year - and I will take you deep into the heart of this captivating past. We will navigate the uncharted waters of human evolution, guided by the discovery of Homo Naledi, a discovery that  challenges our very notion of what it means to be human. Follow Lee @thefossilvault Follow Chase @chase_chewning ----- In this episode, you will learn... Dr. Lee Berger's discovery of Homo Naledi, a new species in human evolution, drastically challenges traditional understandings of human evolution. The species exhibited complex cultural practices such as mortuary rituals and engraving symbols, pushing the limits of our understanding of non-human culture.  The Homo Naledi species co-existed with Homo sapiens hundreds of thousands of years ago. The discovery contradicts the previous narrative that Homo sapiens were the only species in Africa, leading to a reevaluation of our assumptions in the field of archaeology and human evolution. The Homo Naledi species was found in extremely difficult-to-reach caves, showcasing the complexity and extent of their behaviors. The very use of these caves for their cultural practices, combined with the discovery of symbols, fires, and tools, suggests a higher level of intelligence and complexity than previously assumed for non-human species. The discovery of Homo Naledi had a profound personal impact on Dr. Berger. Not only did it challenge his understanding of human evolution, but it also put his life at risk during the exploration process.  ----- Episode resources: Learn how to enroll in the 2024 Ever Forward Mentorship by emailing subject line "mentorship" to chase@everforwardradio.com  Learn more about Cave of Bones book and the documentary-series on Netflix

This episode is brought to you by JoyMode and Paleovalley. How can setting 'impossible' goals be more achievable than 'possible' ones? Today, I sit down with psychologist Dr. Benjamin Hardy, PhD who challenges us to reimagine our perception of time and how it influences our growth. We cover everything from the power of psychological flexibility, goal setting, and productivity, to the intriguing theory of the future dictating the present and the present shaping our past. Follow Dr. Benjamin Hardy @drbenjaminhardy Follow Chase @chase_chewning ----- In this episode, you will learn... The Power of Perception: One of the key takeaways from the podcast is understanding how our perception of time influences our personal growth. Dr. Hardy suggests that our future should dictate our present and our present should shape our past.  Setting 'Impossible' Goals: Another important lesson is the idea that 'impossible' goals can often lead to greater success than 'possible' ones. This ties into decision-making and constraint theory, highlighting the potential of using past experiences as stepping stones for our future.

This idea can lead to a greater understanding of how to optimize productivity.

Follow Mike @themike_diamond Follow Chase @chase_chewning ---- In this episode, you will learn... Addiction can often be disguised behind high performance, leading to a dangerous illusion of control. Individuals struggling with addiction can often still perform at high levels, making it difficult to recognize. The importance of self-discovery and healing in overcoming addiction cannot be overstated. This process often involves facing uncomfortable past experiences and finding healthier ways to channel energy and cope with trauma. The power of small, meaningful interactions and acts of kindness can have a profound impact on your life and the lives of others.

Prepare to navigate the mysteries of our minds and beyond with esteemed guest and personal friend, Dr. Randy Scharlach, MD. In this episode, we dissect the inner workings of our identities, emotions, and perception of life and death. Our conversation takes us from the modern science of consciousness to the ancient traditions and practices that allow us to access the divine. With Randy's unique medical experiences, we venture into the transformative world of psychedelic medicines, their profound influence on our understanding of the world, and quantum theory's significant implications on our perception of consciousness. Randy also shares his experiences as an oncologist and as a psychedelic practitioner in dealing with trauma and loss. Join us as we discuss the future of consciousness exploration! Follow Chase on Instagram @chase_chewning ----- In this episode, you will learn... Consciousness is a complex, multidimensional concept that is intricately linked to our identities, emotions, and perception of life and death. Understanding consciousness can be a lifelong journey, but can also lead to profound personal transformation. Quantum theories suggest that our perceived physical reality might be an illusion, with the true fundamental reality being a field of consciousness that permeates the universe.  The exploration of consciousness through psychedelic medicines can provide unique insights and transformative experiences. These altered states of consciousness can help individuals connect with their inner selves and can even help in transforming trauma into spiritual growth. The division between science and religion, often referred to as the Cartesian split, has led to resistance in the scientific community to ideas of consciousness as a fundamental reality. The concept of God in the context of consciousness can be interpreted as the entirety of the universe, and our individual consciousness is a part of this universal consciousness, suggesting that our individual experiences are a way for this universal consciousness, or God, to experience the world. ----- Episode resources: Save 20% on my favorite functional mushroom, adaptogen, and CBD products with code EVERFORWARD at https://www.CuredNutrition.com  Save $20 on the For Today at-home male fertility test kit with code EVERFORWARD at https://testlegacy.com/everforward Get The Immortality Key hardcopy book here or the audiobook for FREE at https://www.AudibleTrial.com/everforward  After Skool video   Watch and subscribe on YouTube

“How do I keep promises I make to myself?” This is a question I get asked a lot, and it’s one that all of us can benefit from knowing the answer to. The ability to make and keep promises directly impacts our level of success in everything we do—whether it’s a promise to go to the gym regularly or stick to a diet, to double down on a side hustle or a relationship, or to follow through on writing a book or starting a podcast. Listen in as I talk about the common reasons we don’t stick to our own promises, and why we shouldn’t beat ourselves up when we fail to meet our own standards. I also share four powerful tips for making better promises and seeing them through to fruition!   Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Key Highlights The word “promise” can be used as either a noun or a verb. As a noun, a promise is “a declaration or assurance that one will do a particular thing, or that a particular thing will happen.” As a verb, when you promise something, you “undertake or declare that something will happen,” or “give good grounds for expecting a particular occurrence or situation.” Promises can quickly become too strict a commitment that holds too much emotionally-negative weight when not kept. If you’re constantly beating yourself up over broken promises, try changing your definition of “promise” from that of a noun to a verb. That means committing to the path rather than the destination. It means committing to the pursuit of the goal: the process, baby steps, and small wins required to accomplish what you set out to do. We know that we can keep getting away with broken promises when the only person we’re accountable to is ourselves. Take the pressure off of yourself by sharing your commitments with people you’re comfortable confiding in. This not only helps you grow your sphere of accountability beyond yourself, but it also allows you to gain precious feedback from those you trust. Lean into positive reinforcement. Reward yourself only for promises you actually keep, and dismiss the promises you fail to keep. When you assign feelings of happiness, contentment, and fulfillment to small kept promises, you’re more likely to follow through with larger promises. If there’s a particular promise that you’re continually breaking not long after making it, consider that you don’t really want it. For the sake of your mental health and the likelihood of fulfilling all other future promises you make to yourself, you might want to walk away from that one promise you keep failing to commit to.

Chase here! In this solo episode, I’m breaking down why I started testosterone replacement therapy a year ago. I share my results almost 15 months later and why I’ve decided to stop. If you’ve followed my TRT journey on social media, you’ve seen my dosages, you’ve seen how I’ve changed physically, and you’ve seen how my numbers have gone up at the gym. But there’s a lot that I haven’t shared yet. I haven’t shared how I’ve administered my dosages, nor the side effects I’ve experienced. Listen in as I come clean about my testosterone replacement therapy journey, from why I started in the first place, to specifics regarding my labs and personal regimen, and why my journey is coming to an end. Follow me on Instagram @chase_chewning Key Highlights I was determined to enter my 37th birthday in October 2022 as the best me possible. I didn’t just want to look at my best. I wanted to feel at my best. I was no slouch at 36. I was doing great physically, and I felt it. But I knew there was room for fine-tuning. I became more regimented, both inside and outside the gym, but being in my mid-30s, I began to struggle with keeping up that level of motivation. Not to mention it was tough to maintain my body composition despite my increased efforts. This was why I decided to explore TRT to provide that edge. If you’re considering TRT, the very first thing you should do is check in with yourself. Do a head-to-toe scan and be as objective as you can, and even a little critical, about what you see and feel. Get clear on what you want out of your day and out of your training. Compare those ideals with your current day-to-day realities. Always keep in mind that TRT is not a quick fix—not that you should ever pursue anything because it’s a quick fix anyway! I ultimately decided to stop testosterone replacement therapy for two reasons. The first was that I experienced skin issues that slightly impacted my social life. Secondly, even though TRT did not negatively impact my sexual activity, I’ve recently decided to prioritize my fertility health over my muscle mass. These two reasons are why, after 14 months, I’ve begun to titrate down and eventually go off TRT completely.

I recently sat down with Eli Weinstein to share my decades-long journey to discovering and embracing the real Chase Chewning! It’s a journey that reached its critical point when I turned 35 during the COVID outbreak in 2020. Like everyone else, my world was flipped on its head, and I’d started questioning deep-seated beliefs I’d held all my life. My goal? To rid myself of the beliefs that didn’t serve me and replace them with beliefs that do. The one question that I always asked myself, whether or not I was conscious of it, was: “Do I feel safe?” And ultimately, that boiled down to yet another question: “Am I loved?” And if I felt no safety or love at any moment—in holding onto a given belief, in interacting with a certain individual, in inhabiting a particular room—then I gained the clarity and the courage to climb over those walls that kept me in and found my freedom. Eli and I give our thoughts on the process of living an intentional life with a full commitment to oneself, from setting healthy boundaries, to avoiding a life lived in fear of other people’s opinions, to the true meaning of living life ever forward.   Follow me on Instagram @chase_chewning Follow me on TikTok @chase_chewning   Key Highlights We take a lot of our beliefs for granted, mainly because we lived our whole lives up to this point assuming they were fundamental “truths”. But if we really sit down and think about those beliefs, we can determine which of them serve us and which of them are nothing more than destructive forces that impede our growth. When we find ourselves needing to walk away from someone in our life who no longer supports our mental or emotional health, we need to fall back on our boundaries. It’s easier said than done to create strong, healthy boundaries, but we need them in order to stay in a constant state of safety, security, and love. We fall into selfishness when we rely on others to dictate our moral compass. This can be as serious as having our values shaped by other people or as insignificant as wearing certain clothes to avoid being judged in a certain way by those around us. Living life “ever forward” comes down to sharing lessons learned from significant, often difficult, life experiences with others, whether through conversations or creating content or even monetizing those lessons through a product.

Sam Visnic is a Certified Massage Therapist specializing in neuromuscular and clinical massage, as well as a Certified Corrective Exercise Therapist. He’s also the host of Who Knows This?? Podcast. Follow Sam Visnic @releasemuscletherapy Follow Chase on Instagram @chase_chewning Key Highlights What is hypnotherapy? Hypnotherapy is a therapeutic practice that uses guided hypnosis to help a client reach a transcendent-like state of focus, concentration, diminished peripheral awareness, and heightened suggestability. Sam explains how hypnotherapy and sensory-based focus can be used in therapeutic processes to reconstruct our internal experience. He notes the similarities and differences between hypnotherapy, meditation, and mindfulness. The world is so stimulating that many of us have realized we’re not as relaxed as we think we are. That’s why people feel loopy and out of it after their first hypnotherapy session - it’s because they’re actually relaxed and they’ve forgotten what that feels like. Once you build that awareness, you can begin cultivating more of that in your life. Sam describes how creating deep change isn’t harder than creating simple change… it just requires a different set of skills. Resilience is one of the best skills you can develop to create change, maintain momentum, and accomplish your goals. People are using hypnotherapy to change the gut microbiome, improve gut health, and even heal IBS. How? Does hypnotherapy work just as well as the FODMAP diet? Tune in to find out! Lastly, Sam highlights the benefits of hypnotherapy in treating chronic pain.

Humble the Poet goes deep about all things self-love, romantic love, overcoming societal pressures, and the true value of self-awareness and vulnerability. He highlights a few concepts from his new book, “How to Be Love(d): Simple Truths for Going Easier on Yourself, Embracing Imperfection, & Loving Your Way to a Better Life”. We all want a better, easier life, and we all want love. We all want to love and be loved… but what stops us from experiencing that and how can we create more pathways for love to enter our lives? That’s what we’re exploring in this episode.  Humble the Poet (Kanwer Mahl) is a Canadian-born artist, rapper, spoken-word poet, international best-selling author, and former elementary school teacher with a wildly popular blog with over 100,000 monthly readers. He is the author of “Unlearn”, “Things No One Else Can Teach Us”, and most recently, “How to Be Love(d)”.   Follow Humble the Poet @humblethepoet Follow Chase on Instagram @chase_chewning Follow him on Twitter @chasechewning   Key Highlights Humble the Poet sheds light on his upbringing as a child of immigrants, from the fomo of celebrating holidays to the subtle awards for Americanizing yourself. What is society? What is society trying to pressure you to do? When you reflect on that, you begin to see the distinction between reward and punishment, needs and wants, truth and falsehoods. Why is it so hard to find love or to keep love? If you find yourself thinking that in a relationship, ask yourself: is this actually love? Love should not be demanding anything of you, other than honesty and presence. Humble shares the meaning behind his quote: “Love is the breeze, the work that we have to do is to open the sail.” Vulnerability is the key that unlocks love in all forms. If you don’t have love in your life, maybe your sail is just closed. How is vulnerability different than honesty? Tune in to hear Humble’s answer! Humble describes why we should abandon the concept of good and bad. We’re more in control of our relationship with ourselves. If we were kinder on ourselves, it’d be easier to be kinder to others. One of the biggest mistakes we make with love is measuring its value through a timeline. Love doesn’t have a timeline. To Humble, it’s all about creating pathways of love.

Meet the Zenchronicity Sisters as they shine light on the power of psychedelic medicine, soul work, and the dire need for a mental health revolution in America. Together, they break down the benefits of using psychedelics and how you can achieve the same mental health benefits without them. Change is inevitable when we choose to work on ourselves. Whether it’s through mind work, body work, emotional work, or soul work, you’re never going to be the same person you went in as. Isn’t that such a freeing concept? If we dive into the soul and embrace the change that comes with it, we can go to places we’ve never even imagined. Megan Michelena and Nicole Michelena, aka the Zenchronicity Sisters, are plant medicine practitioners and Certified Mental Health Experts specializing in psychedelic medicine. They also co-host The Zenchronicity Podcast and offer 1:1 and group coaching to people who want to maximize their personal and professional potential (with or without psychedelics).   Follow Zenchronicity Sisters @zenchronicity_sisters Follow Chase on Instagram @chase_chewning Follow him on Twitter @chasechewning   Key Highlights Megan and Nicole share their perspectives on the current state of mental health in America. What are we doing well and what do we need to do differently?  They describe how psychedelics have changed their lives and improved their mental health as well as why they think the future is androgynous. We focus so much on mental work and physical work that we often forget soul work. Listen in to learn how psychedelics can be used to do soul work. Intention and integration are the keys to receiving and retaining the benefits of psychedelic experiences.  Should everybody do psychedelics? Who shouldn’t take psychedelics? If you don’t immediately find meaning in your psychedelic experience, don’t try to force meaning. It may come to you days, weeks, or even months later.  “When you just surrender and let go, 99% of life shows up for you, and that’s integration.” Why is it so hard for us to surrender and let go? The answer lies in our divine masculine and feminine. Tune in to learn more!

Couples therapist, Mac Stanley Cazeau, is here to help you think differently about relationships, communication, and intimacy. He breaks down the difference between relationships and partnerships, the do’s and don’ts of intimacy, and how to make real, long-lasting progress in your partnership. Plus, Mac shares how to boost intimacy with “chore play”.  That’s right, we said chore play! Think of it as a form of foreplay, something we all need every now and then... In all seriousness, no relationship goes without conflict or challenge, so it’s important that we stay committed to working through them together. Whether you’re in a serious partnership or not, this episode will help you navigate the ups and downs of communication, intimacy, and conflict with your special someone. Mac Stanley Cazeau is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who specializes in couples therapy, trauma therapy, porn addiction recovery, and infidelity recovery. He is the owner of Therapy Is For Everyone Counseling based out of NY & NJ.   Follow Mac Stanley Cazeau @talk2mac_therapist Follow Chase on Instagram @chase_chewning Follow him on Twitter @chasechewning   Key Highlights Mac explains why the word “relationship” is outdated and why the term “partnership” should be used instead. What is a toxic relationship? How do I know I’m in a toxic relationship? How do I know my partner is manipulating me and is there a way out? Listen in to hear Mac’s answers. According to Mac, the most common issue in relationships in 2023 is effective communication. Mac shares helpful tips for effectively communicating with your partner without (or after) criticizing or attacking them.  How can manipulators stop manipulating their partners? It starts with finding understanding during conflict, then problem-solving.  The two biggest complaints women have in relationships are no emotional connection and lack of presence (“you’re never there”). The two biggest complaints for men are too much fighting and not enough sex. In reality, they’re complaining about the same things, just expressing them differently. Are you a man who has trouble listening to your partner? Tune in to hear Mac’s advice on becoming a better listener and the power of having ‘check-ins’ with your partner. Mac explains how to stay present when things are the most difficult in your relationship, then shares his do’s and don’ts of intimacy. Lastly, he shines light on what you can do to navigate the difficult transition from couple to parents.

Stefan Falk shares his secrets to loving your work and succeeding like never before. He teaches you how to gain intrinsic motivation, overcome procrastination, and improve concentration so you can learn skills faster, sustain high levels of work satisfaction, and work towards any dream or goal you have. We’ve all experienced lack of motivation or dissatisfaction with work at some point in our life. It’s common for people to feel like their work is boring, uninteresting, difficult, or uncomfortable, yet we continue to stay in those jobs. This begs the question: Do we need to love our work in order to have a good, successful life?  If you’re struggling to find motivation from within or find enjoyment in your work, this episode is for you. “Figuring out how to tap into that energy in a smart way, to unlock our intrinsic motivation, I think that is actually the key challenge that humans should take on,” he says. Stefan Falk is an internationally-recognized performance coach who helps people achieve things they don’t think they’re capable of. He’s also the author of “Intrinsic Motivation: How to Love Your Work and Succeed as Never Before”.    Follow Chase on Instagram @chase_chewning Follow him on Twitter @chasechewning   Key Highlights It’s how you think about what you’re supposed to do that decides whether you will love it or not. Thus, it’s all about mindset and taking baby steps towards building and tapping back into intrinsic motivation. If you learn how to unlock intrinsic motivation, you will gain the ability to learn and master new skills much faster, work effectively towards any type of goal or dream, and sustain great satisfaction in whatever you choose to do or need to do. Stefan shares how to concentrate more effectively with minimal energy expenditure. It’s important to recognize the difference between intrinsic and extrinsic motivation and how you can balance the two. Listen in to learn more! Stefan details the fascinating role of fantasy/daydreaming in building intrinsic motivation and the role of intention in sustaining motivation. Hint: The brain gets really good at what it focuses on. “If you don’t erase negativity from your life, how on Earth are you ever going to have inner peace? It’s impossible,” Stefan says.

Benjamin and Azrya Bequer shed light on how emotional intelligence, mirroring, and spiritual integration can help you elevate your relationships and co-create a healthier, more beautiful world. They offer sage advice on communicating to your partner during difficult times and their favorite tool for finding growth in the paradoxes of life. If you’re ready to surrender to growth and self-love, this episode will help you do that. Benjamin “Bee” Bequer and Azrya Bequer are the co-founding stewards of BEQOMING, a platform dedicated to providing the future stewards of society with the emotional intelligence tools to elevate humanity and co-create a more beautiful world. Bee and Azrya are also the co-authors of “BEQOMING: Everything You Didn't Know You Wanted”.   Follow Bee and Azrya Bequer @beqoming Follow Chase on Instagram @chase_chewning Follow him on Twitter @chasechewning   Key Highlights Our education system, and our society as a whole, lacks an emphasis on emotional intelligence. This boils down to an inability to be in relationship with ourselves.  Bee and Azrya shed light on their use of plant medicine early into their relationship during a time of doubt, fear, and insecurity. They describe the powerful concept of mirroring in relationships - how mirroring shows us our true selves and what we need to work on within ourselves. If we are in an awakening, what are we awakening to? Are we headed in the right direction? Tune in to hear their thoughts! What does it take to truly “surrender”? Can plant medicine help me surrender? “I don’t know if you can truly surrender if you don’t have an established relationship with something greater than yourself,” Azrya says. “What’s important is that you can feel the relationship with it. It’s not just a concept… it’s actually a felt experience.” Every version of ourselves, those that we love and those that we’ve hated, is still inside of us today. Loving all those versions and embracing the contrast within yourself and your partner is a practice of self-love and integration. How can I communicate to my partner that their pain/struggle is not serving me or our relationship? Listen in to hear Bee and Azrya’s candid advice!

He breaks down his best practices for managing pain, how to get the best outcomes with your health and fitness providers, and why we need more help in life than we think. As humans, we experience so many different types of pain. Physical pain, mental pain, emotional pain, financial pain… and the level of uncertainty that comes with those pains can be overwhelming. In today’s episode, Sean is here to help you navigate the pains you experience in life and turn them into opportunities for growth and gratitude. Sean Pastuch is a doctor of chiropractic, coach to athletes, coach educator, and the Founder and CEO of Active Life, a company that provides education, exercise, and mentorship to individuals, coaches, and gym owners.

He explains how to reduce your anxiety and uncertainty around pain, so you can make conscious decisions for how to approach pain management and/or treatment. When working with fitness trainers, doctors, bodyworkers, etc., it can be easy to not share certain information or ask the best questions. This can hinder your adherence, quality of care, and outcomes. Listen in to learn how to best explain your experience and goals to your providers and ask the right questions so you can get the best outcomes and enjoy the process. Navigating the financial aspect of pain management: Should we rethink financial pain in order to alleviate another type of pain? Tune in to hear Sean’s candid answer along with what he learned from hiring a mentor for $1,000/month while he was broke. We can’t manage pain, reach our health goals, or feel grateful for our progress all on our own. “The belief that we don’t need help robs us of our ability to be grateful,” Sean says. Sean speaks on why the biggest need in mental and physical health is awareness.  He describes his own biggest pain point in life and how he’s navigating it.   Episode resources: Get your free consult from Blokes modern men's health at https://Blokes.co/chase  Save 20% with code EVERFORWARD on any functional mushroom, adaptogen & CBD product at https://www.CuredNutrition.com  Watch and subscribe on YouTube https://youtu.be/u-JsEwDk9_I

Neurophysiologist and brain coach, Louisa Nicola, is back to talk about how to optimize brain health and performance with exercise. Louisa sheds light on why exercise is so important for brain function, the best form of exercise for the brain, and how to take control over your brain health to prevent stroke, cardiovascular disease, and Alzheimer’s disease. If there’s one episode that will persuade the most sedentary person to finally prioritize exercise in their life, it’s this one. Louisa shares some incredible facts about the brain, disease, and exercise that will make you less scared of disease and more empowered to take care of your body. Louisa Nicola is a neurophysiologist, brain coach to elite athletes, and Founder of Neuro Athletics, a full-service neuroscience diagnostic testing company.    Follow Louisa Nicola @louisanicola_ Follow Chase on Instagram @chase_chewning Follow him on Twitter @chasechewning   Key Highlights To optimize your performance at work and consistently operate at your best, you need to think of yourself as an athlete. An athlete bases their life on the tactics of their sport (their job), the technical side, the sports psychology side, nutrition, and strength. “If you base your life on those pillars, the ROI is exponential,” Louisa says. What does neuroscience currently say about the benefits of exercise on brain health? Louisa explains the difference between exercise and physical activity, noting why resistance training is better for the brain than aerobics. She details a study that shows a reversal in mild cognitive impairment (pre-dementia) from just six months of exercise alone. You are in control of your brain health. Lifestyle interventions give you the control over developing/preventing stroke, cardiovascular disease, and Alzheimer’s disease.  Start to assess yourself. The #1 thing that is controllable, yet can collapse the capillaries in your brain, is consistent high blood pressure (hypertension), which can decrease brain function. Do you check your blood pressure regularly?  Louisa shares why she’s so intrigued by vascular health right now and the crucial role your veins play in brain health.

Chase recently sat down with Michael Chernow on the Kreatures Of Habit Podcast to discuss the hidden benefits of walking, one thing that radically improves sleep health, and why you must make YOURSELF your number one priority. They speak on creating a foundation for your life built on discipline and fortified by daily habits, as a way to prevent your days from becoming aimless and filled with regret. He and Michael ended up diving so deep into the importance of forming healthy physical and mental habits, that they wound up having to split their conversation into two episodes! If you enjoyed this discussion, make sure you don’t miss part 2, in which the pair give their thoughts on what it means to be a modern man.   Follow Michael @michaelchernow Follow me @chase_chewning   Key Highlights It’s easy to take for granted the holistic impact of walking. Says Chase: “One can maintain a certain body weight, body composition, sanity, mental health [...] just from moving our two feet all day.” Before adding on another new supplement in your morning routine, it’s important to check in with yourself first and assess how you feel. If you’re feeling sharp, energetic, and ready to tackle the day, you won’t need anything extra. “If you’re looking for one thing you can do right now to radically improve your sleep health,” says Chase, “wear an eye mask!” It’s not selfish to be your number one priority. In fact, it’s actually selfless to ensure you grow to be the best person you can be. Without a strong foundation, you’ll start your days without aim and end them with regret. The foundation you need is discipline, which can only be built through a series of daily habits that keep both the mind and body in shape.

Today we are joined by Dr. Mark Horowitz, a clinical research fellow in psychiatry and Co-Founder of Outro Health, an online clinic providing specialized support for those who want to safely stop using psychiatric drugs. Join us as we explore the deprescribing movement and discuss how to take charge of your mental health by making informed decisions with your healthcare providers. With Dr. Horowitz's expertise and personal experience, you'll learn about the benefits of deprescribing and gain valuable insights on how to feel empowered throughout your mental health journey. Tune in now to start your journey towards a happier, healthier you! Key Highlights “A part of medicine, not just psychiatry, should be using medications or interventions such that the benefits outweigh the harms, and if that changes, then the medication should be stopped,” Mark says.  Most people (even doctors) have been told and believe that depression is caused by a chemical imbalance in the brain. If you believe that, why would you stop a medication? Mark shares his research on depression and serotonin, and tells us why mental illness is not all about the chemicals in our brain, but about our lives as a whole.  95% of studies on drugs are funded by the manufacturers of those drugs. “They clearly have an interest in studies that show when to start drugs and much less of an interest in when to stop drugs,” Mark says. How much of this is in our control as patients? How do we make sure we’re receiving the best care from our healthcare providers? Tune in to hear Mark’s candid answers! Surprisingly, the place Mark received the most useful advice on safely stopping/weaning off antidepressants was peer support websites. That was a big reason why Outro is inspired by peer support. Chase and Mark share tips and insights on how to better understand your mental health so you can be more educated, informed, and empowered to make decisions with your healthcare providers.

Andrew Herr, Founder & CEO of Fount, shares his first-of-its-kind jet lag protocol to maintain and even optimize health and wellness while traveling. Flying is rough on the body, and Andrew discovered why. He explains the inflammatory response that occurs due to the change in air pressure, which impairs how you think, feel, and perform. In combination with changing time zones, the effects on the body can be extreme. But, as Andrew explains, you can biohack jet lag. Key Points: Flying causes an inflammatory response due to changes in air pressure that affect how you think, feel and perform The effects are even more extreme the further you fly Fatigue, sleep problems, lack of focus and mental clarity, mood changes, and digestion issues are just some of the tolls flying takes on our bodies Andrew Herr is the Founder & CEO of Fount, a company that delivers customized, concierge performance, and wellness programs to top performers Andrew ran human performance efforts for the US military, including the first-ever jet lag protocol, which inspired the creation of his health and performance coaching business The jet lag protocol can be applied by anyone to optimize their health and wellness while traveling Andrew shares the elements of his protocol, which Chase himself has experienced, and provides practical tips to beat jet lag Biohacking jet lag involves understanding your body's natural circadian rhythm and adapting to your new environment Other factors, such as nutrition and exercise, also play a critical role in mitigating the effects of jet lag Episode resources: Save 15% on Flykitt with code CHASE https://www.fount.bio/flykitt  Save 20% on Mobility Wall with code EVERFORWARD at https://mobilitywall.com  Save 15% on grass fed beef sticks with code PALEOVALLEY at https://www.Paleovalley.com  Watch and subscribe on YouTube https://youtu.be/jQYop3rHyX0 

Welcome to the podcast where we discuss groundbreaking theories and discoveries that change the way we view the world. Today, we're joined by Harvard Psychiatrist, Dr. Chris Palmer, who shares his groundbreaking Brain Energy Theory of Mental Illness. In this episode, Dr. Palmer helps us understand the root cause of mental illness, the connection between mental and physical health, and how we can actually get better. He explains that mental illness is actually metabolic dysfunction in the brain and shines a light on the current state of mental illness and mental healthcare in America. One of the biggest issues with the current mental healthcare system is that too many people are told they must sacrifice their physical health for mental stability. They're often prescribed medication with side effects and are left to hope that their mental health improves. Dr. Palmer believes that there's something wrong with this system and that the standard of care in the mental health field needs drastic improvement. As an academic physician and psychiatric researcher at Harvard Medical School, Dr. Palmer has a focus on helping people suffering from treatment-resistant mental illnesses, including mood disorders, psychotic disorders, and personality disorders. He is the author of Brain Energy: A Revolutionary Breakthrough in Understanding Mental Health--and Improving Treatment for Anxiety, Depression, OCD, PTSD, and More. Dr. Palmer's work is incredibly important, as far too many people do not get better with our current approaches to mental health treatment. If you or someone you know is struggling with mental illness, this episode is a must-listen. Join us as we dive into the Brain Energy Theory of Mental Illness and learn how we can improve our approach to mental healthcare.   Follow Dr. Chris Palmer @chrispalmermd Follow Chase on Instagram @chase_chewning Follow him on Twitter @chasechewning   Episode resources: Save 15% on grass fed and grass finished beef sticks with code EVERFORWARD at https://www.Paleovalley.com/everforward  Get your FREE variety pack of Recharge electrolyte drink mix at https://www.DrinkLMNT.com/everforward  Save 20% on the For Today at-home male fertility test kit with code EVERFORWARD at https://testlegacy.com/everforward Watch and subscribe on YouTube https://youtu.be/LLcmO5Hh-7U  Learn more and buy his book, Brain Energy by Chris M.

How many tabs, browsers, and apps do you have open right now? Do you ever notice how glued we are to our devices, yet it’s so hard to even focus on what’s on our screens? You’re not the only one… it has become a way of life for so many of us in the Digital Age. So, what do we do about it? Gloria Mark debunks popular myths about focus and attention span and reveals the science behind why multitasking is a lie.

The world is noisier than it’s ever been. It is becoming increasingly difficult to focus our attention where we want to. As a culture where overwhelm is the norm and noise, both internal and external, is so prevalent, it can seem impossible to find moments of silence and time to be still.  Leigh Marz and Justin Zorn, authors of “Golden: The Power of Silence in a World of Noise,” are on the podcast today to talk about the meaning and power of silence in a noisy world, how to find silence, why you need it, and how it can change your life.  Their book discusses why silence is important for our personal and collective wellbeing and how to experience deep silence while living a full life. As well as exploring the concept of silence, the book also explores what goes on in nothingness and where silence truly exists. Leigh is a collaboration consultant and leadership coach to federal agencies and major companies. Justin has served as a meditation teacher and legislative director in the US Congress. Together Justin and Leigh cofounded Astrea Strategies, a consultancy that specializes in helping individuals and organizations develop solutions from a place of attention and centeredness.  Connect with Leigh on LinkedIn Follow her on Twitter @LeighMarz Connect with Justin on LinkedIn Follow him on Twitter @JustinZorn Key Highlights Silence is less about finding a quiet place and more about being present. We experience silence in spaces that allow us to avoid interference with our perception and intention. Our everyday lives are full of opportunities to listen actively and stay present, but how often do we do this? The absence of sound does not always imply silence. What makes sound different from noise? How can we find quiet in a noisy environment? Are quiet and silence subjective experiences? What can we do to experience internal quiet and flow? Our fear of getting quiet and seeking silence can prevent us from experiencing silence. Why is that?  How to avoid being overwhelmed by noise by tuning your senses to silence and being a discerning listener Is silence something you need to find? Justin explains that quiet can be accessed at all times and shares ways he has utilized micro-moments in his life to get quiet.  Episode resources: Join Chase and Ryan Holiday at the Awake & Aware: Stoic Retreat on Feb 17th in Austin, TX or 20% off with code EVERFORWARD at https://www.wildhealthsummit.com/conference/stoic  Watch and subscribe on YouTube https://youtu.be/XhVj6Pt6vWo  Get the hardcopy of Golden at Amazon or with your free audiobook 30-day trial at https://www.audibletrial.com/everforward Justin’s website https://justinzorn.com Leigh's website

We think so! In fact, it’s been clinically proven…   Follow Dr. Julie Foucher @juliefoucher Follow Chase on Instagram @chase_chewning Follow him on Twitter @chasechewning   Key Highlights What does it mean to know your baseline? Why is it important to know your baselines and health markers? So many of us don’t know our own health markers, but if we do, we’ll be better able to sustain our health and prevent disease. Tune in to hear Julie describe this in more detail. What is the different between functional, traditional, and precision medicine? Julie breaks these down for us and explains why you should consider leaning into functional and precision medicine more.

Chase describes how Wild Health helped him discover his predisposition for cardiovascular disease and the subsequent choices he made to improve his baselines and prevent the disease. Julie details why she worked with a mindset coach as a CrossFit competitor and how mindset shifts can significantly improve your physiological health.  The external is not always an accurate representation of the internal, meaning you can look healthy on the outside while being very unhealthy on the inside. Listen in as Julie reflects on the unhealthiest, most stressful time in her life: when she entered med school as a top tier CrossFit athlete.

Jeff Byers is a former NFL player and the current CEO of Amp Human, which offers innovative products that help athletes push the limits on their performance, adaptation, and recovery. With an interest in both sports and entrepreneurship from an early age, Jeff always harbored an interest in finding creative ways to push his boundaries for growth as a human. “I was always thinking about the little things I could do to get better,” he says. “I tried to use my brain to work smarter than always just work harder.” After retiring from the NFL, Jeff worked for a few years in the finance space before joining an early-stage biotech startup in late 2015. This company had discovered a way to deliver pharmaceuticals through the skin, bypassing the GI system which often limits the body’s ability to optimally absorb vitamins and minerals taken orally. Not long after joining the company, Jeff and one of his partners developed a broad vision for a business offering products specifically formulated to optimize human performance, a space in which they saw, at the time, a huge gap in the market. Listen in as Jeff talks all things human performance and optimization and why he refers to it as a “broad spectrum”. He also discusses the benefits of Amp Human’s flagship product, PR Lotion, and its newly released D+ Lotion. Key Highlights Jeff explains how to differentiate between human performance and biohacking, and how he optimizes his cognitive abilities. Routines are great for introducing discipline; but could they also be a limiting factor to evolving, adapting, and breaking past barriers with regard to human performance? What does Jeff mean by “broad spectrum human performance”? Jeff speaks on the relationship between mindset and human performance. How do Amp Human’s products, particularly PR Lotion, help humans break their limits and achieve more?

What’s the secret to putting together a perfectly imperfect formula to find success in our perfectly imperfect life? Award-winning researcher and health coach Michelle Segar sits down with Chase to talk about what it takes to achieve lasting changes in our health and fitness. She explains why it’s so important to build a strong foundation of understanding around human behavior, and how these behaviors influence how we make decisions, big and small, in our day-to-day lives. Michelle discusses the role of goal-setting and motivation on our journey of growth, and how having a strong “why” drives us forward as we make our daily choices. She encourages us to always have self-compassion, and to see the path of lasting change as an opportunity to better not just ourselves, but those we care about as well! Michelle Segar is an award-winning, NIH-funded researcher at the University of Michigan with almost thirty years studying how to help people adopt self-care behaviors, like exercise and healthy eating, in ways that bring meaning and joy and can survive the complexity and unpredictability of the real world.   Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Key Highlights When is motivation the answer? Does it ever actually serve us or is it always going to be nothing more than a crutch? Getting clear on your “why” is, more often than not, the missing link between making lifestyle changes, and sustaining those changes Michelle explains why she prefers to use the term “daily choice making” instead of “behavior change” Not every big decision needs to be life-or-death. When we’re on the verge of making choices related to our health and fitness, having compassion for ourselves is more motivational and effective than judging ourselves harshly. Michelle shares how we can create our own “self-care hierarchy” Episode resources: Save 15% on organic instant lattes and coffee with with code CHASE at https://www.StrongCoffeeCompany.com  Save 15% on natural CBD products with code EVERFORWARD at https://www.CuredNutrition.com  Watch and subscribe on YouTube

Sarah Fay is the author of the memoir, Pathological: The True Story of Six Misdiagnoses. Pathological explores the consequences of overidentifying with a psychiatric diagnosis and how doing so can lead to self-stigmatization and self-limitation. During this episode of Ever Forward, Sarah discusses mental health diagnoses, from what they are to where they come from, how she lived through six of them, and how we can embrace and understand them better as a society. The stigma that society places on mental illness is well known, but what about the stigma we place on ourselves? Could that actually be more harmful? In Sarah's opinion, yes.  Sarah discusses candidly in this episode how being diagnosed with Anorexia as a child caused her to over identify with the diagnosis and attach her thoughts and feelings to it, which led her to believe that she wouldn't be capable of doing many things in life, such as maintain a long-term relationship or hold down a full-time job. Fortunately, Sarah's perspective on her mental health has evolved to where she doesn't feel this way anymore. Her ability to reframe her diagnoses and honor her experiences has been a result of good mental health practitioners, a supportive family, and her willingness to take charge of learning more about her diagnoses and where mental health diagnoses come from.  Follow Sarah on Instagram @sarahfayauthor Follow Sarah on Twitter @sarahfayauthor Follow Chase on Instagram @chase_chewning Follow him on Twitter @chasechewning Key Highlights: Sarah discusses the experience of receiving her first psychiatric diagnosis at the age of 12 and what led to it. How Sarah views her diagnoses in hindsight after 25 years in the mental health system.

How Sarah distanced herself from her diagnosis, freeing herself from self-inflicted limitations Sarah's views on the advantages and disadvantages of receiving a diagnosis, as well as how mental health practitioners can better communicate with patients about their symptoms and treatment options An evolutionary perspective on anxiety: How our brains keep us alive In what ways can a diagnosis empower us?

This week’s guest is helping people do that while also putting an end to bad first dates. Mia Lux is the Co-Founder and CEO of La Vette Social Club, the world’s first intentional dating platform for self-aware singles. Mia is also the host of the Mia Lux & Love podcast where she invites experts in love, dating, and self-development to take on taboos and limitations while exploring what tools and frameworks are needed to create exceptional love and excellent sex. Above all, Mia Lux is a lover of good love.   Follow Mia Lux @mymialux Follow Chase on Instagram @chase_chewning Follow him on Twitter @chasechewning   Key Highlights Most dating apps on the market are built just like social media, programmed to grab your attention and keep you on the platform, not to cultivate deep love and healthy relationships. Listen in to learn how this inspired Mia to intentionally end her marriage and start La Vette Social Club. Oftentimes, the hardest part of dating is finding people whose values align yours. Also, one of the biggest mistakes people make while dating is sticking to a “type”. That’s why it’s so powerful to understand your own values as well as how you want to feel in a relationship. La Vette connects singles via 100% video, no photos. They also vet their users with background checks. Mia breaks down the benefits of using this model, shares her secret for getting amazing first dates, and reveals how La Vette prevents ghosting. Chase speaks on how he creates a safe space for others to share about themselves and feel more connected to each other. Mia sheds light on the components of ever-lasting love and the two factors to knowing whether the person you’re with is the one or not. What do women want from men? How can I approach dating with radical honesty? Mia has some very intriguing answers!

She also gives advice and strategies for overcoming the negative stories that are holding you back from being your best self.

We’re made up of stories. What does that mean? Listen in as Kindra breaks it down and shares a fun exercise you can do to see how many stories you’re made up of and how those stories have shaped you. Fear, especially fear of failure, often comes from the stories we’ve subconsciously held onto for our entire lives. This leads to inaction, stagnancy, and a lack of growth. How can we overcome this?  If we look at what influences us, there might be a story behind why we’re influenced by those things… Listen in to hear Chase and Kindra’s thoughts on this intriguing phenomenon. Kindra speaks on whether or not we need to be mindful of how our stories passively influence others. If you’re struggling with the emotions from old stories and the struggle is keeping you stuck, ask yourself: Are there stories since that time that exhibit the characteristics that I want to become, that I’m working towards, or that I’m proud of? Show yourself the receipts to prove that you have evolved from those old stories.

In today's episode, Chase and May talk about relationships, boundary setting, and healing. We will all encounter people in our lives that test our boundaries or share different values from us. On top of that, we are all constantly changing and healing, which can create friction in our relationships. You may love someone deeply, but if they cannot meet you where you are, it's hard to maintain a healthy dynamic. Ending relationships is not a failure, and it is okay to leave space in your heart for people while realizing they cannot be in your life right now. May shares how she took stock of her relationships in order to identify what wasn't working for her. Furthermore, she discusses how she developed boundaries to protect her wellbeing and maintain a positive attitude toward others.  Additionally, Chase and May discuss how healing is a continuous process. The two will discuss how their foundation of radical honesty and communication has enabled them to communicate where they are emotionally in order to know what to do individually to support each other, and when to focus on themselves alone.   Follow May @mayyazdi Follow Chase on Instagram @chase_chewning Follow him on Twitter @chasechewning   Key Highlights May talks about what she calls, “the common denominator”- the idea that it helps to notice the patterns and trends in your life. May shares how she took inventory of her life and analyzed her relationships after feeling betrayed by people close to her. Chase and May talk about the importance of setting boundaries. May talks about how she tends to view all people as innately good and how she had to look at her life through a different lens in order to establish the boundaries with people and not get taken advantage of. It is normal for people in your life to serve different purposes, and one person cannot meet all your needs. May talks about managing her expectations for people and how she categorizes people now. It is okay to let go of people who are not serving you in your life. Chase and May talk about their views on setting boundaries, moving on from some people, even family, and their thoughts on divorce as a solution to relationship problems. Chase and May talk about their individual healing journeys and define what healing means to them. When does healing start, and what does it look like? How do you support yourself, your partner, and your joint relationship as each person heals and grows individually?

They also detail how their company, Living Prana, is supporting the world-wide evolution of mental health and wellness. Stress is oftentimes all we know as humans. Many people are in a constant state of stress and their body is so used to it, they don’t even know what it’s like to be in a state of balance. Stress can be created in your home environment, your career, past traumas, an imbalance in the body, and countless other sources. Tune in to learn how you can reduce stress, eliminate brain fog, and bring your body and mind back to balance - all by eating pancakes!

Britt Frank is a trauma therapist and the author of The Science of Stuck: Breaking Through Inertia to Find Your Path Forward. Today’s conversation centers largely on the topic of emotional regression: that all-too-common anxiety-inducing feeling that you are younger than your chronological age. Britt says that this is an issue that needs to be talked about more, because it can affect anybody regardless of their mental health status—even the most successful men and women in society. Some signs of emotional regression? Indecisiveness, fear of making people angry, can’t say “no”, emotional explosions, wanting to be the “favorite” child/employee/friend, imposter syndrome, and many more. Believing that “surviving childhood is trauma in and of itself,” Britt asserts that, “if you don’t grieve the fact that your childhood is over, you end up repeating it.” At the same time, Britt notes that humans are a “sliding scale”, constantly swinging from equilibrium to one extreme to another and back again. According to Britt, instead of trying to practice “self-regulation” all the time on one end, or being overly emotional and passionate on the other, we need to be willing to embrace a dynamic way of life. This way, we allow ourselves to consciously shift from one emotional state to each other, and from a state of high energy to a state of rest, acknowledging that how we feel is completely and utterly how our body wants us to feel in the moment. Britt reminds us that “our brain is on our side”—that anxiety is simply a sign telling us that something needs to be addressed. This means allowing ourselves to grieve, as opposed to suppressing that grief, is what will ultimately lead to our healing.   Follow Britt @brittfrank Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Key Highlights Britt breaks down the phenomenon of “emotional regression”: those excruciating moments—usually taking place around one’s parents—where one feels younger than their actual age, and why many of even the most successful individuals go through it. Like the titular character in Alice in Wonderland, emotional regression makes us feel too big one moment and too small the next: your “yes” was really a “no”; you feel guilty when you fail and guilty when you succeed; you feel like an imposter half the time and a narcissistic monster the other half. Britt describes emotional regression as a psychological longing for “home”—by extension defining homeostasis as feeling at home in your body, mind, and heart. Britt unpacks grief as it relates to emotional regression and lays out the four steps to healthy grieving. She also explains why she sees anxiety as a superpower that can help us get unstuck on our road to healing. You don’t need to wait until you’ve hit rock-bottom to change. Britt shares how you can start taking those baby steps to turn your life around today, and explains why feeling “fine” is far from fine.

Society has changed, technology has changed, the way we work has changed, everything has changed! Change can feel overwhelming or confusing, but not if you know how to change with it. Allow us to introduce you to the one and only, Jason Feifer, editor in chief of Entrepreneur magazine, podcast host, author, startup advisor, keynote speaker, and “nonstop optimism machine”. Jason believes that change is inevitable, but thriving is up to you… and he’s here to tell you how. In this discussion, Chase and Jason talk about the present and future of work, what’s changed in the workforce and entrepreneurship space over the past two years (since covid began), and how to create opportunities and innovation in your life and business.   Follow Jason Feifer @heyfeifer Follow Chase on Instagram @chase_chewning Follow him on Twitter @chasechewning   Key Highlights The pandemic has caused many companies to restructure their organization and work flows. If we focused less how much time people are spending working and instead focused more on what they produce, we can start to create more flexibility in how people work together.  Efficiency is necessary, but it can be the death of innovation. Do you know what really killed Kodak? Facebook.  Every company needs someone (or a team) whose job is to come up with new opportunities. The best type of opportunity you can pursue is the opportunity that is available to you that nobody is asking you to do. How do ensure we’re moving forward in a direction of expansion? Tune in to hear a story from Jason that illustrates his answer. What is Jason’s billion dollar question he wants entrepreneurs to ask themselves? He dedicated a whole blank page in his new book for this question: What is it for? “It’s just so valuable for all of us if we can think about the cycle of change we’re in right now as the conscious cycle,” Jason says, “This is the one that you pay attention to, that you take notes on, that you have documented evidence… so that when you get through it… [and] the next time you go through it, you can look back and you can say… it’s gonna work out again.” Episode resources: Join the 2023 Ever Forward Mentorship waitlist!

How do you find meaning and stillness in your daily life? That could sound like a loaded question, but if you take a step back and think about it, meaning and stillness are things we get to relish in every single day… if we’re mindful about it! Eli Weinstein, a Licensed Clinical Social Work Therapist, is passionate about sharing tips and tools for no BS mental health, wellness, and everyday life. He’s here to do just that. In this discussion, Chase and Eli talk about navigating parenthood, partnership, and your relationship with yourself. He shares his simple, yet powerful techniques for minimizing anxiety, stress, overwhelm, and the societal noise we’re constantly exposed to. Then, he sheds light on three major mental health issues the world is facing right now and why we should be aware of them.   Follow Eli Weinstein @eliweinstein_lcsw Follow Chase on Instagram @chase_chewning Follow him on Twitter @chasechewning   Key Highlights Eli explains how to begin the process of “dating yourself”, getting to know yourself, and developing a healthy relationship with the Self. Remember, start small. Choosing to not do things can be just as powerful as choosing to do things. He details the impact of stillness on everything from productivity to self-awareness and relaxation, touching on how he finds stillness with ADHD.  The intensity of social media can cause our brain to go into survival mode, creating an internal stress system pumping adrenaline into your body. Turn off your push notifications, avoid mindless scrolling, and avoid picking up your phone the second you wake up. At the root, taking care of yourself and enhancing the quality of your life is about learning how to just BE with yourself, your thoughts, and your feelings, learning to enjoy your life where you’re at (not through a screen). When we isolate ourselves, we get stuck in our thoughts and we feel alone. The pandemic caused a lot of isolation, whether we wanted it or not, and that’s a slippery slope to mental illness. Embrace your whole self, your inner and outer worlds, and get help when you need it. It might just change your entire life.

What would happen if you approached both your relationships with yourself and your partner through a lens of curiosity instead of judgment and resentment?  Chances are you’d experience more love, comfort, and happiness. In this episode, John Kim and Vanessa Bennett share their best insights on cultivating a quality relationship with yourself and your partner, the hard work it takes to “relationship better”, and tips and tactics for overcoming the barriers to having a healthy relationship. Most importantly, John and Vanessa talk about the power of approaching relationships through a lens of curiosity instead of judgment.  John and Vanessa, two psychologists, therapists, and life partners are the authors of the new book, “It’s Not Me, It’s You: Break the Blame Cycle. Relationship Better”. In its pages, as well as in this episode, the pair analyzes their own relationship to help untangle the common and frustrating barriers many individuals face on the road to a happy, loving, rewarding partnership.   Follow John @theangrytherapist Follow Vanessa @vanessabennett Follow Chase on Instagram @chase_chewning Follow him on Twitter @chasechewning   Key Highlights John and Vanessa talk about how to constructively call your partner out. The trick? Trying to understand before trying to be understood. You’ll learn how to open up in a relationship and build trusting communication with your partner instead of sweeping issues and conflicts under the rug. You don’t know everything about your partner, which is exciting! John and Vanessa break down why it’s important to get out of judgment and get into curiosity and how to go about doing that in your partnership. Fire needs air, meaning if you want passion, you need desire, space, and an understanding of and connection with the self.

Listen in to this month’s chat with May Yazdi, Chase’s wife, as the pair talks about burnout and relationships. In this discussion, Chase and May talk about how to manage burnout through nurturing your relationship with yourself and how to support your partner while they experience burnout. They share simple, yet powerful communication techniques for partners navigating burnout together along with tips and advice on gaining back your energy and inspiration after burning out.

Have a question? Email us at info@everforwardradio.com!   Key Highlights Burnout is a syndrome conceptualized as resulting from chronic workplace stress that has not been successfully managed. It is characterized by three dimensions: feelings of energy depletion or exhaustion, increased mental distance, or feelings of negativism or cynicism. Does any of this resonate with you? If so, you’re likely burnt out! May sheds light on how burnout caused her to feel uninspired and unmotivated in her career and how burnout impacted her physical, mental, and emotional health.  How do you effectively manage stress? May shares an analogy to illustrate the idea that when you react to and process your stress, the stress is able to be broken down and released without being stored in the body. If your partner is experiencing burnout, or if you’re both experiencing burnout, how can you get through it? May and Chase speak on the importance of acknowledging the space that each of you are in, sharing about your work day at a time that feels right for you, and allowing yourself the time to fully process your stress before involving your partner. Always be willing to listen, ask your partner what they need/want, and be willing to give them space. When your partner doesn’t want to talk about their day, be accepting of that and don’t take it personally. Managing and recovering from burnout is a non-linear process. There may be waves of emotions and feelings, some days might be better than others, but there’s always a way to overcome it.   Episode resources: Get 30% off for life during Paleovalley's anniversary sale at https://paleovalley.com/anniversary-sale?oid=17&affid=980 Get a free variety pack with any purchase of Recharge electrolyte drink mix at https://www.DrinkLMNT.com/everforward  Listen to The Alignment Show  Learn more about Field Trip Health Listen to EFR #462: Scientific Ways to Beat Burnout, Boost Energy, Reclaim Your Life and Stop Being So Effing Tired with Dr. Amy Shah, MD I’m So Effing Tired by Dr. Amy Shah, MD

How do you separate yourself from the noise of diet culture and find information that serves you and your needs? Michelle emphasizes the power of intuition and intuitive eating in developing your ideal diet, lifestyle, and wellness practices. Ask yourself questions, especially when making changes to your diet or lifestyle.  “The way that I describe the body positivity movement is that it is an extreme knee jerk reaction to a tremendous amount of very real trauma after a really long time,” Michelle says. She then details the principles of compassion and coddling she uses with her clients to make health changes as well as with her opinions on HAES (Health at Every Size). Michelle shares her unique opinion on the individualization of fasting, highlighting the types of people that would benefit or would not benefit from fasting. Is fasting right for you?

Ivana De Maria is a producer, actress, activist, and tech entrepreneur. She is the founder of Storyplace, an empathy-driven digital platform where you can write and read stories from people all around the world. Tying all of Ivana’s varied passions is the same mission: to promote empathy through the most basic and powerful form of education, storytelling. Listen in as Ivana breaks down the magic of stories in their power to learn more about not just other human beings, but ourselves as well. It was thanks to her strong belief in the ability of storytelling to unite people of disparate background and beliefs that she was inspired to create the Storyplace platform. In the latter half of our conversation, Ivana reflects on her experience with psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy, as well as her very first Ayahuasca ceremony, and how these sessions caused her to wake up to a truer version of herself for the first time in her life. Asked what story she is currently writing now that she is in her third decade of life, Ivana tells Chase: “I feel like I was just born again. I realized I had never, in 30 years, asked myself, ‘What do I want?’”   Follow Ivana @ivanamaria Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Key Highlights If you open yourself up to hearing the stories of everyone around you, you level up your own life. It all starts by slowing down and truly listening to the other person. Going further embrace empathy by consciously separating listening from agreeing. Ivana shares what inspired her to establish her unique platform built to bring people’s stories together. Addressing the all-too-common reply of, “I don’t have a story,” Ivana explains that, instead of saying to someone, “Tell me your story,” it’s so much more powerful to say, “Tell me a story about…” Ivana talks about how her psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy experiences made her feel like she had “woken up from a 29-year-nap”.

Louisa Nicola is a neurophysiologist, brain coach to elite athletes, and Founder of Neuro Athletics, a full-service neuroscience diagnostic testing company.  Back in episode #436, Louisa Nicola gave us an introduction to the brain and nervous system, setting the foundation for us to understand how neuroscience can help us get more out of life. This week, Louisa is back to dive deeper into the science behind brain performance.  In this discussion, Chase and Louisa talk about the three domains of peak brain performance: nutrition, physical exercise, and neurophysiology. Louisa breaks down how to utilize nutrients, exercise, and sleep, so you can better optimize your brain health. The pair also talk about keeping the blood-brain barrier strong, the benefits of using exogenous ketones, and why you need to be more mindful of maintaining your dopamine levels.  Plus… Can our brain cells regenerate or are the connections just getting stronger? Stick around until the end to hear Louisa’s shocking answer!   Follow Louisa Nicola @louisanicola_ Learn more about NeuroAthletics Follow Chase on Instagram @chase_chewning Follow him on Twitter @chasechewning   Key Highlights Sleep: “Sleep is probably the most underrated high performance tool we have,” Louisa says. If you’re an athlete who doesn’t get enough quality sleep, it affects almost every aspect of your performance and increases risk for injury. Louisa goes on to describe the impacts of sleep on brain health, brain disorders, and brain aging. Nutrition: “When it comes to the brain, there are certain things that the brain favors, especially as it relates to nutrition and supplementation,” Louisa says. Listen in to learn how stress, inflammation, and supplementation of key nutrients, like EPA and DHA, can play a role in longevity and cognitive performance. Plus, Louisa explains the benefits of going on a high fat diet immediately after a traumatic brain injury (TBI) or concussion). Hydration is a key indicator of brain functioning. If we are 2% dehydrated, we can have a decrease in our cognitive performance by 30%. Exercise: “You can grow the gray matter of your brain by physical activity alone,” Louisa says. She then recaps various research studies that show the relationship between exercise, particularly resistance training, and cognitive performance as well as how exercise can prevent Alzheimer’s disease. Your brain loves quality time with other humans, loving relationships, social interactions, and of course, self-love.  How will you know these practices are actually improving your brain health?

Imagine a world where growing your own food is as nutritious and cost-effective as grocery shopping at your favorite store. Jacob Pechenik, the Founder and CEO of Lettuce Grow, is on a mission to make this happen now. Referring to the company as the answer to industrialized big agriculture, Jacob’s mission through Lettuce Grow (and its parent company The Farm Project) is to “democratize the growing of food for all” by “providing families access to clean, unprocessed food, [...] decreasing transportation emissions, drastically reducing water usage, and recycling ocean-bound plastics from places that lack recycling initiatives.” Having always had a passion for sustainable farming, Jacob began with a dream to transform the wasteful industrial food system. He started with the question, “How do I get more people to the farm?”, but later on began to ask, “How do I get the farm to more people?” That question led to his mission to create a million farmers throughout the country and by extension empower consumers to choose healthier, locally-produced alternatives. In the process, he hopes more people can reclaim that age-old sense of pride that comes with preparing one’s own meal. Follow Lettuce Grow @lettucegrow Follow Chase @chase_chewning Key Highlights People have become so disconnected from how their food is sourced, grown, and prepared. The fact that ever-changing fad diets exist makes this obvious. Jacob explains how conscious consumerism aims to help us rediscover our food heritage. Industrial food distribution typically wastes 52% of the plant before it gets to the consumer. Jacob breaks down The Farm Project’s innovative “distributed farming” model, which ensures maximum freshness throughout the whole process. Jacob shares his journey to becoming empowered in choosing the healthiest food he could for his children. How much of an impact does Jacob hope Lettuce Grow and The Farm Project will have on the food distribution industry?

Food is what’s killing us in this country. Did you know that living in the United States for 10 years increases your risk of developing food allergies? That’s pretty nutty, but not as nutty as our guest, whom we have dubbed “Certified Nut Job,” Sonia Hunt. Sonia Hunt is a Tedx Speaker, Integrative Nutrition Health Coach, and #1 Best-Selling Author of “NUT JOB: How I Crushed My Food Allergies to Thrive”. Sonia is known for her journey of, after almost dying four times, becoming food allergy-free from 32+ foods. Horrific experiences with anaphylaxis led her to optimize her life and share the lessons she learned with the world and with you! In this discussion, Chase and Sonia talk about all things allergies – what’s in our foods that may or may not be causing internal and external havoc and, more importantly, what to do about your food allergies. She details her holistic approach to finding the root cause of her severe food allergies and the mind-blowing realizations she had along the way. Follow Sonia @soniahunt Follow Chase on Instagram @chase_chewning Follow him on Twitter @chasechewning Key Highlights Sonia dissected every area of her life and worked with a variety of medical practitioners to get to the root cause of her suffering. A decade later, in 2020, she found out that she had eliminated all her food allergies and is still in remission today. How did she do it? Listen in to find out! “The very first step to change is changing your mindset,” Sonia says. She didn’t love herself and she had been living on autopilot based on how society was telling her to live. This realization was her catalyst to start pivoting her mindset, taking back her power, and healing her health issues. Sonia sheds light on how she manages the inner critic and the fear of “relapsing” and reacting to former allergens again. Gut health was a major part of what Sonia and her doctors investigated and worked to improve. More research is coming out showing the correlation between Leaky Gut Syndrome, which Sonia has, and food allergies. Exercise, Ayurveda, supplementation, and eliminating environmental toxins in the home also helped her eliminate her allergies. Sonia shares what she’s excited for in the future, highlighting her recent health coach certification, Three to Be™ program, and the role of technology and the metaverse in improving our physical self holistically.

Maybe you have seen the new Netflix documentary "How to Change Your Mind" with Michael Pollen? Maybe you are becoming interested in learning more about psychedelic healing? May Yazdi, Chase’s wife and psychedelic assisted psychotherapy Family Nurse Practitioner, is back for a summertime chat and recap of a very special trip they took to the desert of Southern California – one that involved lots of love, connection, grounding, and psilocybin. In this candid discussion, Chase and May talk about the incredibly healing power of downtime as well as intentional alternative medicine therapies such as psilocybin and ketamine assisted psychotherapy. Chase dives deep into what his recent six gram psilocybin experience was like and May reflects on what it’s like to be a professional “trip sitter”. Then, the duo sheds light on how to choose your trip sitter along with tips for holding space for someone in altered states of consciousness.   Follow May @mayyazdi Follow Chase on Instagram @chase_chewning Follow him on Twitter @chasechewning   Key Highlights Chase reflects on his decision to have a very high dose (6 grams) psilocybin experience and what he gained from the trip.  May shares her experience as a professional “trip sitter”, as well as her experience being present during Chase’s big trip. She speaks on her strategy for holding space for people taking psychedelics and why it can be harmful to trip sit somebody when you’re not trained. Next time you travel, when you get to your destination, try grounding yourself for a few minutes. Take your socks and shoes off, go to an area where you can stand on earth (if possible), and just soak in the presence. It’s the first thing May does anytime she travels!

Rachel Scheer shares how she came to discover her natural talent for weightlifting which, combined with an insatiable work ethic and trust and belief in herself, led her down an unexpected path that would challenge everything she knew about health and wellness. After a series of gut-related issues reared their heads at the beginning of her fitness career, it all came to a head when the motility in her gut completely halted. After being told that the only solution to her condition was the removal of her entire large intestine (an option she seriously considered for a while), Rachel eventually decided that there had to be another way. She threw herself into studying as much as she could about the gut, leading her to discover the power of the microbiome and a pathway to healing she never realized existed. She talks about how to identify and eliminate the stressors that contribute to gut-related problems—whether they be dietary, emotional, or environmental stressors. “Our body has an innate ability to heal,” says Rachel, “once we can get out of our own way.” Rachel reflects on the final piece of the puzzle she had to solve on her healing journey: addressing unresolved trauma. She shares how she forced herself to practice brutally honesty in order to evaluate the stories she told about herself and rewrite the ones that didn’t serve her. Needless to say, Rachel’s progress has completely surpassed all of her doctors’ expectations. To her, healing and growth ultimately comes down to embracing our truth and choosing what brings joy and love into our lives. Rachel Scheer is a Certified Functional Medicine Nutritionist with her own private nutrition and counseling practice now in Southern California.   Follow Rachel @rachelscheer Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Key Highlights Rachel never grew up expecting to be the most talented person in the room. However, what has served her well in life is her trust and faith in her potential coupled with a lot of discipline to fully unlock that potential. The rock-bottom moment for Rachel was when she was told that the only solution to her condition was the removal of her entire large intestine. She talks about how she dealt with the weight of this life-altering decision and how it all led her to pursue functional medicine. Rachel breaks down the three main stressors that lead to disease (i.e. dis-ease) in the body: emotional stressors, dietary stressors, and environmental stressors. The less obvious healing work that Rachel had to do was address unresolved trauma to rekindle the link between her gut, her head, and her heart. She explains how she was able to do this, starting with forcing herself to embrace radical honesty.

Whether you’re struggling to lose weight, burn fat, gain muscle, or improve your health in any way, there’s one thing that’s almost guaranteed to be in your way… your mind. Natalie Newhart is the Founder of Fit Addicted Nutrition, where she specializes in female-specific fat loss, as well as a mindset coach for those who want to master their mind and body. She believes that in order to master your body, you have to train your mind… but what does that mean and how do you start to train the mind? Natalie and Chase talk about what it means to train the mind while breaking down the 4-phase training approach she uses to maintain her health and create the life she wants to live. Natalie shares her thoughts on why mindset is more important than diet and exercise and how your mental health and mindset could be preventing you from losing excess fat.  Follow Natalie Newhart @natalie.newhart Follow Chase on Instagram @chase_chewning Follow him on Twitter @chasechewning Key Highlights Natalie shares the meaning behind her motto/mindset: “Train your mind. Love your body. Become your best self.” and how she has used that to overcome disordered eating and exercise habits.  The 4 phases of training Natalie uses are focus (training thoughts), emotions (training the nervous system), vision (painting a picture of the life you want to create), and intuition (bridging the gap from where you are to where you want to be).  Most people struggle to take the first step of retraining the mind because of fear of uncertainty. You’ve got to have faith and trust that this process can work. Once Nat saw other people living a healthy, free life, she started to shift her focus from the version of herself she thought she had to be to the version of herself she wanted to be. Ultimately, awareness is key in shifting thought and behavior patterns. The mind thinks there’s some type of benefit to overeating, restricting, or whatever action that’s not serving you. But when you become aware of that, you have the power to shift your thoughts and behaviors to healthier ones. Natalie sheds light on her relationship with gratitude, how gratitude and stillness play a major role in her health and wellness journey, and what she does when gratitude doesn’t come easy to her. Natalie also talks about how she discovered the impact of mental and emotional stress on the body, specifically women’s bodies, and the research she’s done on stress, health, and weight gain/loss.

Being a human means you’re going to experience difficult emotions, traumas, and hardships… but being a human also means that you have the ability to heal, connect with your Higher Self, and make an impact in the world.  Meet Emily Duncan, CEO of Emily Duncan Fitness, a science-based and human-centric fitness coaching company. Emily is not only passionate about transforming bodies and minds through health and fitness, she’s also passionate about the impacts of spirituality, mindfulness, and psychedelics on the human experience. In this discussion, Chase and Emily have a cozy conversation about psychedelics and microdosing, connecting with your Higher Self through Higher Self Behaviors, what it means to live on brand, and how she helps others find health and wholeness through fitness coaching. Follow Emily Duncan @em_dunc and @edfcoaching Follow Chase on Instagram @chase_chewning Follow him on Twitter @chasechewning   Key Highlights Emily describes (for the first time publicly) her experience during a psychedelic trip that initiated healing from deeply rooted traumas. She speaks on the existential crisis that blossomed out of that experience, how she overcame that, and the lessons she learned along the way.  Living on brand, having conviction in who you are now and how you might change tomorrow, is immensely powerful. “To really solidify who your people are, to become more aware of the growth you’ve had, just to really connect with other human beings in a totally different way happens so much more significantly when you can look at a person and it’s just like, you are fully fucking you,” Chase says.  Can we experience life-changing realizations on our own volition, without psychedelics? Listen in as Emily and Chase share their candid thoughts on how to reach a psychedelic state of mind without taking psychedelics. One of the biggest joys Emily has experienced in life is the opportunity to learn about herself and understanding why she has functioned the way she has. This is also what she helps her coaching clients do. We are not static creatures, so taking risks, believing in yourself, and trusting the Universe seems to be the root of all joy and growth. Emily breaks down how she integrates behavior change, emotional awareness, and other teachings into her coaching practice. What does a day in the life of your Higher Self look like? What is your Higher Self’s brand? When you break down your Higher Self Behaviors (HSBs), especially the small details and moments, pick one of the easiest things you can start doing right now. Then, continue doing that and see how your life and mindset shift. Emily believes you’ll start seeing that you’re not as far away from who you want to be as you might think… Episode resources: Get 10% off your first month of Better Help at https://www.BetterHelp.com/Forward Save 15% on Cured Nutrition with code EVERFORWARD at https://www.CuredNutrition.com  Listen to EMBody Radio Watch this interview on YouTube at https://youtu.be/k61qaWU6qwY 

You’ve heard people speak about the power of community in healing, making change, and even living longer, but did you know that community has been the single driving force of many leaders’ and companies’ success?  Revolutionary tech founders, presidents, and world-renowned artists have one thing in common… they know how to build and leverage communal thinking and collaboration. Jeff Rosenthal is no different. Jeff is a Co-Founder of Summit, a forward-thinking organization founded on building relationships, connecting with people, and fostering generosity to build successful and fulfilling businesses. Through a series of invitation-only events, Summit fosters a global community of entrepreneurs, academics, athletes, artists, astronauts, authors, chefs, engineers, explorers, philanthropists, spiritual leaders, scientists, and beyond. In this discussion, Chase and Jeff talk about the beauty and challenges of launching, growing, and scaling a start-up and building community in the entrepreneurship space. He shares his biggest revelation since starting Summit, the self-care practices that keep him at his peak, and why it’s so important to bet on your friends. He also describes the purpose and process behind his new book, Make No Small Plans: Lessons on Thinking Big, Cashing Dreams, and Building Community. Follow Jeff Rosenthal @reffjosenthal Follow Chase on Instagram @chase_chewning Follow him on Twitter @chasechewning Key Highlights Jeff sheds light on the creation and development of Summit, detailing how he and his team worked through failure and defined their meaning of success as a new, growing social impact start-up. Is it healthy to hustle and grind as an entrepreneur? You’ll hear Jeff speak on his belief that the core of entrepreneurship is being afflicted by your ambition to create, along with why you need to believe in yourself irrationally. There’s immense power in community, collaboration, and the exchanging of wisdom between business and thought leaders. You don’t need to have an existing community to build community. You just need to find a passion so that when you meet people who share that passion and hold a deeper knowledge of it, you get to exchange wisdom and therefore, build community. Sometimes, as a business leader, it can feel like people are only building a relationship with you to capitalize on it. Listen in as Jeff shares his best advice for not being a capitalist in your community. Jeff highlights his opinion on one of the biggest economic and environmental movements of our lifetime, the decarbonization of our economy, and why that’s so exciting to him. Is it possible to create, develop, and build trust virtually? How can you transition from a virtual community to an in-person community post-pandemic? Tune in to hear Jeff’s answers!

What do heart health and erectile dysfunction have in common? A tiny molecule called Nitric Oxide (NO)… but we’ll let the “Father of Viagra” explain that. Today’s guest, Dr. Louis Ignarro, PhD is a distinguished Professor Emeritus of Molecular & Medical Pharmacology at UCLA and has been a research scientist for over 40 years. Dr. Ignarro is known for his discovery of Nitric Oxide and its many life-critical biological actions in the human body, a discovery that led to winning a Nobel Prize and Viagra. In this discussion, Chase and Dr. Ignarro talk about his Nobel Prize-winning discovery and how Nitric Oxide plays a critical role in improving cardiovascular health, longevity, and even your sex life. He also shares a few simple and actionable insights on what you can do to naturally boost your heart health and prevent disease. This is truly a discussion you won’t want to miss!   Follow Dr. Louis Ignarro @dr.louisignarro Follow Chase on Instagram @chase_chewning Follow him on Twitter @chasechewning   Key Highlights Dr. Ignarro first breaks down what the free radical Nitric Oxide is and how it affects the human body, particularly in terms of cardiovascular health. Our body produces tiny amounts of NO which has been found to lower blood pressure and prevent harmful blood clots, thus supporting heart health and preventing strokes. Why is the discovery of Nitric Oxide so important for the human race? Simply put, this enabled the scientific community to discover how we can naturally boost NO in the body to improve heart health: through nutrition and physical activity.  Dr. Ignarro highlights the role of nutrition in NO production and how a quality, balanced diet contributes to heart health. “If you don’t eat enough protein, you’re not going to make enough NO,” he says. Plus, Louis emphasizes the crucial role of antioxidants in heart health and what fruits and vegetables have the highest amounts of antioxidants. One of the keys to increasing longevity (and quality of life) is increasing cardiovascular health and mental health. Dr. Ignarro shares his thoughts on the obesity epidemic, the harmful relationship between Nitric Oxide and body fat, and how that’s impacting the severity of cardiovascular disease in America. Why is Dr. Ignarro known as the “Father of Viagra”? How does NO impact erectile dysfunction? Listen in as he shares the story behind his discovery that made the development of Viagra possible.   Episode resources: Save 20% on the Sexual Performance Booster with code EVERFORWARD at https://www.UseJoyMode.com Get one year free vitamin D and five free travel packs of AG1 at https://www.AthleticGreens.com/everforward  Get his book Dr. NO: The Discovery That Led to a Nobel Prize & Viagra by Louis Ignarro PhD Visit his website

True healing begins with your mindset. Health, wellness, and healing goes beyond the physical experience. There’s an esoteric, or spiritual, branch of medicine that’s little talked about but majorly impactful. Let’s unpack that concept and explore how spirituality might help you heal. Dr. Trish Ferrer, ND is a Naturopathic Doctor by trade and a Healer by purpose. She is also a speaker, writer, activist and coach that combines healthcare, feminine energetics, and spirituality to sustain your health. Ultimately, she “specializes in people, who they are and the complexity of their humanity”. In this discussion, Chase and Trish discuss the interconnections between modern medicine and esoteric medicine, how to develop the healing mindset, and the powerful relationship between physical, spiritual, and emotional health. She also shares her top advice on men’s health, divine intimacy and sexuality, and the benefits of embracing your masculine and feminine energies.   Follow Dr. Trish Ferrer @dr.trishferrer Visit her website Follow Chase on Instagram @chase_chewning Follow him on Twitter @chasechewning   Key Highlights Dr. Trish sheds light on how our physical health is connected to our spiritual and emotional health and wellness. So often, people come to Trish struggling with chronic conditions or health issues, having seen several doctors with no success or diagnosis. Trish helps treat their physical ailment, but also helps them look at other areas of their life, like childhood or relationships, to find the root cause of their issue. Once they do that, physical health will be restored. Trish breaks down her meaning behind spirituality and esoteric medicine and talks about how to develop the mindset that’s needed to heal.  Empowerment and education are critical in the healthcare system and medicinal space. The philosophy of healing is really about being present in the moment. Once we are aware, informed, and empowered, we’re able to tackle the obstacles to health and wellness. Listen in to hear Trish describe the role of empowerment and education in her naturopathy practice and how this impacts her patients’ outcomes. Trish shares her #1 tip for men’s health (and smashing the patriarchy): Let go of “what a man should be”. Embrace your masculine AND feminine energies. Connect with your vulnerabilities and sensitivities because those are also your strengths.  Chase and Trish break down the role of “kingship” and “queenship”, or the divine masculine and feminine, in sexual health. Plus, Trish shares how you can be strong AND tender at the same time as well as how to make your partner (or potential partner) feel safe around you.

Have you ever considered trying a trendy diet? Not sure if it’s right for you? Are you turned off by the controversy surrounding it? What is the best diet for bodybuilding and transforming your body? Robert Sikes is a natural competitive bodybuilder and entrepreneur who attributes much of his health and wellness to adopting the ketogenic lifestyle. Although this diet isn’t for everyone, Robert gives us a valuable perspective on how diet and lifestyle can create a ripple effect of benefits in one’s life if done with intention, care, and commitment. In this discussion, Robert and Chase talk about how the ketogenic diet has transformed Robert’s life in many ways, from bodybuilding to his relationships to entrepreneurship and more. He shares his candid thoughts on the controversy around the ketogenic diet, the psychology of eating and dieting, and important things you should know if you’re considering adopting a keto diet and lifestyle. Robert also talks about his new book, “Ketogenic Bodybuilding”, and where he thinks we have room to grow in the health and fitness industry.   Follow Robert Sikes @ketosavage Follow Chase on Instagram @chase_chewning Follow him on Twitter @chasechewning   Key Highlights Robert sheds light on his history with dieting and disordered eating and how that has affected his mental health and OCD. He also shares about his discovery of the ketogenic diet and how that had positive effects on his mental and physical health, productivity, and his relationship with food. Since there’s immense controversy surrounding the keto diet, Robert talks about the various uses of the keto diet and how that has evolved over the years. “I think in 2017-2018 is when it really spiked… and since then, there’s been a massive influx of products and just marketing around the ketogenic diet, paling it as this miracle weight loss diet. There’s some truth to some of that marketing but a lot of it has been overly hyped for sure,” Robert says. Robert details his improvements in various health markers after going keto, as well as the power of combining research on diets and health trends with personal experimentation to come to your own conclusion. Want to test out the keto diet for yourself? Robert gives you this advice: Get some baseline panels done, take initial progress photos and measurements, get a composition scan done, and then try the keto diet for 3-6 months before making any conclusions. He also highlights the importance of tracking your progress and details how he maintains the keto lifestyle year-round. When you find a diet/lifestyle that makes you feel great mentally and physically (and is sustainable), you’re going to see tremendous changes in other areas of your life, like work/business and family life.  Episode resources: Click here to save 80% on grass-fed & grass-finished beefsticks from Paleovalley Click here to get a free variety sample pack of Recharge by LMNT with any purchase  Learn more about Robert Sikes

Animal protein, according to Dr. Gabrielle Lyon, is the key to preventing disease and promoting longevity. Plant protein can be one's alternative choice but it may be missing the mark for you in terms of total wellness potential. And what about body composition, chronic disease and illness? The common conception is that obesity is the root cause of most diseases. The reality is we don’t have a body fat problem, we’re just under-muscled… That’s the concept that drives the work of this week’s guest.  Dr. Gabrielle Lyon, DO is a physician who founded the concept and the Institute of Muscle Centric Medicine®.  In this discussion, Chase and Dr. Gabrielle Lyon have a transparent conversation about the history of food and nutritional science, the power of Muscle Centric Medicine®, and the non-negotiable science behind controversial health topics, including protein and RDAs. This is an info-packed episode that will either leave you speechless or running to share the news with your loved ones!   Follow Dr. Gabrielle Lyon @drgabriellelyon Follow Chase on Instagram @chase_chewning Follow him on Twitter @chasechewning   Key Highlights Dr. Gabrielle Lyon defines Muscle Centric Medicine® as the concept that muscle is the organ of longevity that determines everything about how we age.  “If we are muscle centric, we can change the trajectory of how we age,” Dr. Gabrielle says.  The primary drivers of disease are insulin resistance and skeletal muscle. Listen in as Dr. Gabrielle breaks down the definition of insulin resistance and explains the role of glucose, blood sugar, and skeletal muscle in maintaining health and longevity.  Humans’ relationship with and understanding of food is rooted in religion and emotion, not just science. Many things have influenced what we eat and the way we eat it. Dr. Gabrielle details the history of food and nutritional science over the last 100+ years and what that means for us today. She shares the hard science you need to know behind controversial topics in nutrition including protein and the quality of protein, recommended dietary allowances (RDAs), and longevity. Should I go plant-based? What’s the difference between animal protein and plant protein? How many grams of protein should I be eating in a meal/day? What supplements should I take as a vegetarian/vegan? Tune in to hear Dr. Gabrielle’s science-backed answers!

May shares that she’s been feeling a “gap” of sorts growing between her and a number of her old family and friends, especially over these past two, life-changing years. She says that the more she has become comfortable with her innate spirituality, the more she feels “pulled away” from certain past relationships. Growth is not a journey to become a different version of yourself. Rather, it’s a journey to discovering the version of you that was always there—your truest self.   Follow May @mayyazdi Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Save up to 50% during the Cured Nutrition spring sale  Save 15% on instant organic coffee from Strong Coffee Company with code CHASE  Listen to May's Anatomy podcast

So, you’ve gained a following on social media… now what? The answer isn’t always clear and direct. What we have come to realize is that Instagram and TikTok are no longer (or perhaps, never were) places where you had to appear perfect to gain a following or appeal to a large audience.  It’s easier than ever to create content and connect to people through social media, but not many people aren’t talking about how to handle the immense growth and exposure that comes with being an influencer. Sam Gwaz is a health coach and fitness influencer who, since growing her Instagram platform by 200,000+ new followers in the last 3 years, has had to grow along with her social media presence in many ways.  In this discussion, Sam and Chase talk about her growth and evolution as a health and fitness content creator on social media. They speak on the power of vulnerability in building confidence, Sam’s current struggle as a content creator, and how to reevaluate your social media presence to ensure you’re creating authentic content that’s aligned with your audience.

In this solo episode, Chase reflects on his seasons of training, unpacking the things that have kept him motivated—and continue to keep him motivated—in and out of the gym. After over 17 years of purposefully and intentionally leading an active lifestyle, one of the most fundamental lessons Chase has learned is the cumulative power of consistency. You could say that just stepping foot in the gym when it’s the last thing you feel like doing, is already half the battle. Many times, it really comes down to doing whatever it takes to simply show up, even if that means relying on external motivation to push you forward. Going through your personal seasons of fitness means that there will be weeks, months, or even a few years when that internal motivation that first got you going to the gym is no longer enough. As you “mature” on your fitness journey, you will need to find ways to reinvigorate your passion for training. Chase finds more purpose and excitement in his training today in large part because he found an amazing community of like-minded athletes. He also recently began testosterone replacement therapy (TRT), an ongoing experience which he speaks about at length in this episode. All that said, Chase reminds us to not neglect our mental and emotional health for the sake of our fitness goals. In his words, sometimes “motivation deserves a sit-down” so that we have the opportunity to check in with ourselves in a holistic sense. Chase is also a staunch advocate for tracking your training, because if you can’t visually see your progress down to all of those minute wins that add up, it becomes so easy to lose motivation. Finally, throughout your seasons of training, always remember to embrace radical honesty not just to ensure you’re really on the right path to growth, but also to assess whether you still have the same passion and excitement for the training modalities you’re currently engaged in.   Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Blokes testosterone therapy at https://bit.ly/blokesef  Save 20% at Legion on your entire first purchase with code EVERFORWARD at www.LegionAthletics.com  Get your free WHOOP 4.0 activity tracker and save 30% on your new membership at http://join.whoop.com/everforward  Strong Coffee Company instant organic coffee is 15% off with code CHASE at www.StrongCoffeCompany.com

Austin Cohen, Founder and CEO of FlexIt Fitness, sits down with Chase to discuss how he was able to keep the momentum going for his “a-la-carte digital fitness solution” in spite of the many setbacks and distractions throughout the past two years. In fact, he says that it is the challenges themselves which incentivized him and his team at FlexIt to think up cutting-edge solutions that they never would have in the old, familiar normal. The company’s focus, says Austin, has always been on “broadening access, of helping people understand that they can experience things that maybe they previously felt to be prohibitively costly, prohibitively inaccessible, or uncomfortable or intimidating.” He says that one of the keys to being able to adapt to the situation at hand and adopt new ways of doing things is by staying determined to achieve the same goals one might have for their health and fitness, but being willing to consider options that may be outside one’s comfort zone. Austin points to three major developments that the pandemic has spurred on within the fitness industry (and how FlexIt has capitalized on them): livestreaming, pre-recorded content, and hardwire. “None of those categories are new,” he notes. “They just became more widely adopted, more widely marketed, and put in front of our faces more than they ever have been before.” Finally, Austin talks about some of the unique opportunities that virtual training can offer to fitness professionals, and why conducting successful online sessions as a coach is a radically different beast from training clients in-person.   Follow Austin @austin_flexit Follow FlexIt @flexit_fitness Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Save 15% on any metabolic health supplement with code CHASE at www.SugarBreak.com/chase Save 15% on grass fed beef sticks with code EVERFORWARD at www.Paleovalley.com 

Alexandra Zatarain is a Co-Founder of Eight Sleep, the world’s first sleep fitness company. You’ve likely never heard of the term ‘sleep fitness’ because Alexandra and her husband created it. So, what is sleep fitness? Put simply, sleep fitness is a healthy state of sleep.  It’s important that we talk about sleep not the context of illness, but in the context of vitality because sleep not only impacts the way you show up in the world each day, but it impacts your longevity, too. In fact, science shows that sleep is much more important to your health, longevity, and how you feel on a daily basis than anything else you can do for your health, including diet and exercise. In this discussion, Alexandra and Chase talk about the power of sleep in living a healthier life, why sleep fitness takes a unique mindset approach, and how sleep affects mental health and longevity. Alexandra sheds light on how her sleep has changed throughout her life as well as her top tips for improving your quality of sleep.

Michael Chernow believes that anyone can reinvent themselves. The New York-based restaurateur, TV host, and fitness personality came a long way, recalling a past defined by depression, unemployment, and crumbling relationships with his own family. “I hated myself, truly,” Michael admits. Everything changed one day when he walked into a Muay Thai gym and was gently yet firmly led by his instructors to live a life of physical wellness (which included a daily bowl of oatmeal for breakfast) along with a heavy dose of self-respect. Asked about fear, Michael distinguishes between living in fear and living with fear and why he believes that the key to growth is through giving up the former and learning to deal with the latter. As for his own fears, Michael says that he has never had a fear of failure, particularly once he had gotten on the road to turning his life around. Michael dives deep into the power of habit, which he illustrates by talking about his meticulous early morning routine involving around 17 activities. Michael contends that each of these activities, when done, is a win, and so “by 6:00 in the morning, I’ve literally won 17 times,” ensuring that his “ability to make great decisions throughout the day are far greater.” His strong belief in positive rituals—and oatmeal—was the spark that led to the launch of the lifestyle and wellness brand Kreatures of Habit and its plant-based, gluten-free, superfood-laced oatmeal The PrOATagonist.   Follow Michael @michaelchernow Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Get a year supply of vitamin D and five travel packets with your order of AG1 www.AthleticGreens.com/everforward Save 20% on your entire first purchase of Legion Athletics with code EVERFORWARD at www.LegionAthletics.com  Save 15% on Kreatures of Habit with code EVERFORWARD15 at https://kreaturesofhabit.com  Watch on YouTube at

Ever since the pandemic set in, our habits have undergone a massive transformation – with no gyms, parks, or other public places open, how does one keep the health and fitness routine going? Join Chase and Maxx for another Q&A episode of Ever Forward Radio today as they help you find answers to your most persistent questions around weight loss, fitness, nutrition, and diet amid the pandemic.

They also touch on body dysmorphia and the tips to fight it and share why stressing your body over appearance could only cause you to gain more weight (if you're trying to lose it).

Life is fragile and it’s taken away from people all the time. This truth is what keeps functional medicine practitioner Dr. Will Cole in a more expansive state of gratitude and compassion every single day. He believes that finding balance and rooting ourselves in the present moment is what will help us thrive in life.  “Reconnecting with your intuition and the planet is the most progressive thing you can do,” Will says. “Making your life the lab, that’s really the art of wellness.” In this discussion, Will and Chase break down the meaning behind ‘the art of being well’ and the role of intuition in health and wellness. They talk about the relationship between alcohol and sleep, key contributors to modern health and wellness, and how to find balance between self-education and consulting medical professionals. Plus, Will gives insight into how he helps people tap into their intuition and the sacred masterpieces we all are.   Follow Dr. Will @drwillcole   Follow Chase  @chase_chewning Follow him on Twitter @chasechewning   Episode resources: Save 15% on grass fed beef sticks from Paleovalley with code EVERFORWARD at www.Paleovalley.com Save 15% on Stabilize from Sugarbreak with code CHASE at www.Sugarbreak.com/chase  Watch this video on YouTube at  Listen to The Art of Being Well with Dr. Will Cole at https://drwillcole.com/podcast

Niyc Pidgeon is a life coach and the author of the best-selling book, Now Is Your Chance, which talks about living a happy life by implementing positive psychology principles into your life. Starting her career as a personal trainer, helping people with their health and fitness goals, Niyc was often approached by her clients as a counsellor for their emotional and mental issues. Those interactions made her realize the intangible link – between the mind and the body, making her want to explore it in depth. Eventually, Niyc studied positive psychology and made it her mission to change the lives of humans using its principles. In today’s discussion, Niyc and Chase unwind the core principles of positive psychology and how it drives noticeable change in the lives of humans. Niyc explains why positive psychology isn’t only about happy things but instead involves finding the light in situations, however bad they may be. As research states, it’s about finding ‘three positive emotions for every negative emotion’ (the ratio may vary depending on your situation and state, but the principle stays intact). It’s about breaking away from rumination and focussing on the ‘now’. You’ll learn to differentiate a fixed mindset from a growth mindset and discover the huge importance of cultivating a growth mindset to stay positive. Moreover, you’ll learn the changes that can be brought into your mindset by being non-judgmental, curious, and operating at your edge: all foundations to cultivating positive psychology. Remember, your emotions are likely contagious; you can always choose to spread a smile.   Follow Niyc @niycpidge Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Get AG1 from Athletic Greens and free year of vitamin D and 5 travel packs at http://athleticgreens.com/everforward Save 15% on the instant organic lattes from Strong Coffee Company with code CHASE at www.StrongCoffeeCompany.com  Watch on YouTube at https://youtu.be/f1lvQ8v6Bs0  Get Niyc's book https://amzn.to/3Gp4tVb  Get When the Body Says No https://amzn.to/3umcV5d  Get The Slight Edge https://amzn.to/34GBYFk

Grief increases inflammation, which can worsen health problems you already have and cause new ones. It batters the immune system, leaving you depleted and vulnerable to infection. The heartbreak of grief can increase blood pressure and the risk of blood clots. Who knew an emotional response to a major life event had such physical consequences? If you’re new here, the phrase and mantra “ever forward” came from his father. His father’s death left such a significant and traumatic imprint on Chase’s heart, mind, and really his entire life, so much so that it became his reason for living. In this discussion, Chase sheds light on his nearly two-decade long battle with grief and bereavement, sharing his personal story of the very significant trauma he has experienced. He also incorporates what science has to say about the relationship between grief and our physical and mental states. Chase then shares a few things he’s done to bring a sense of awareness to his grief and work through it.   Follow Chase on Instagram @chase_chewning Follow him on Twitter @chasechewning   Episode resources: Save 15% on any CBD product with code EVERFORWARD at www.CuredNutrition.com  The Body Keeps the Score https://amzn.to/3IPHLaw  Bereavement and complicated grief https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3855369/ Complicated grief https://royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rstb.2017.0273?url_ver=Z39.88-2003&rfr_id=ori:rid:crossref.org&rfr_dat=cr_pub%20%200pubmed#d3e1100 Complicated greif and related bereavement issues for DSMR-5 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3075805/  Field Trip Health ketamine-assisted psychotherapy clinics https://www.fieldtriphealth.com

What does it mean to have a spiritual component to your relationship? How do I develop spirituality in my relationship? What’s the difference between spirituality and religion? How do you have a healthy relationship with someone who’s beliefs are different than your own? These are all powerful questions Chase and May reflect upon in this episode. In the last few years, Chase has become more spiritual, realizing that his spiritual Self has always been with him. Despite being grown up in the Southern Baptist Church, he ponders the reason why he hasn’t made his own spirituality as much of a priority as he wants it to be. Through his spiritual exploration, Chase and May have been able to deepen their connection on a whole new level. In this discussion, May and Chase talk about the spiritual component of relationships and marriage.

For years, brain enthusiasts and performance coaches have been striving to find ways to assess human health with nothing more than their brain waves. As an outcome of their strenuous efforts, technology has opened doors to that humongous possibility – of analyzing the state of the human brain at any point to see what you need to do to perform better! One star performer in brain health technology is Wave Neuroscience -- and we're diving into the lessons from their advancement today. Meet Ned Mason, retired Navy SEAL Commander and now Chief Operating Officer at Wave Neuroscience, as he joins Chase on a special LIVE demo episode of Ever Forward Radio. Wave Neuroscience is a company that develops technologies to help you understand your brain without pharmaceuticals or invasive procedures.  Today, Ned performs Wave Neuroscience's brain assessment on Chase, measuring the frequencies of his brain waves alpha, theta, and delta, and touring his brain health using the measured parameters. He provides a detailed breakdown of the results of his evaluation (Chase's brain care report and brain synchrony score) and explains what each brain wave tells about behavioral and lifestyle traits like the effectiveness of sleep, learning style, and grasping speed.

Personal trainer and author Mike Matthews returns to talk about his newest release, Muscle for Life: Get Lean, Strong, and Healthy at Any Age!. Best known for his book Bigger Leaner Stronger and its female-focused counterpart Thinner Leaner Stronger—both released in 2014—Mike has now trained his focus onto longevity for both men and women in their 40s and above who are relatively new to strength training. Mike is a staunch promoter of making fitness a lifestyle instead of a program. In his own words: “Instead of a 30-day plan, I want to show people how to create a 30-year plan.” Creating that 30-year plan for yourself requires going back to basics. Mike invokes the 80/20 rule, in which 80% of outcomes come from 20% of causes. The rule certainly applies to fitness, where a few fundamental principles—four in particular—can be responsible for the majority of results. Those four fundamental principles, which he dives into in today’s conversation, are controlling your calories, eating a high-protein diet, consuming relatively nutritious and unprocessed foods, and working out three-to-six hours a week. Asked for his overall view of the role of fitness in one’s life, Mike says, “I try not to make fitness my life, an end unto itself.” Instead, he looks at fitness as a tool that he uses in service of the things that really matter, such as relationships and career.

Maxx and Chase return to talk about their ten-plus year journey in the world of fitness. The younger Chewning kicks things off by reflecting on his love for fitness. He only started lifting after he was spurred on by his bros in college to hit the gym. It didn’t take long for Maxx’s total disinterest to turn into a daily non-negotiable. “It was something that I made fun of, then got into. It literally changed my entire life.” Now over a decade into the game, Maxx looks back at the many accomplishments he’s garnered as a powerlifter. He says he’s just about ready to retire from powerlifting now that he’s on the verge of hitting numbers that few at his age and in his weight class have matched. Overall, Maxx and Chase agree that community has become a stronger priority over hitting PR after PR. Maxx shares how he aims to approach his gym sessions moving forward.

Jonathan de Potter is the Founder of Behold Retreats, a health and wellness platform that provides holistic plant medicine programs in beautiful, conscious, and soulful locations. He advocates unlocking true human potential by tapping into the inner self using holistic practices and plant medicine, a journey that stemmed from his desire to find his own life's purpose. In 2016, as an atheist confined in the corporate web, Jonathan took a year off from his full-time job for his first-ever plant medicine retreat in Peru. Humbled by the experience, he started spending more time researching plant medicine, and in the process, realized its connection with the human subconscious and how it helps embody life with more purpose and meaning. Today, he imparts this learning and wisdom as a healing facilitator to help transform the lives of many more people, unlike popular practice that consolidates knowledge into a product or periodic program. In today's conversation, Jonathan explores what it takes to master the journey of a true healer, including profound connection and surrendering for deeper exploration of the subconscious and conscious realms. Moreover, he intertwines science, culture, and the community's power to explain energetic interactions (that exist beyond your physical body) and talks about using plant-based medicines to intentionally release inherent trauma or lower-level energies to live a more conscious, content life. But what if your life is already free of the said trauma and is as happy as you know it? Is there a higher level of self you could experience? As Jonathan explains, there's a level beyond your present state of consciousness that involves greater trust and confidence in the universe; a life that serves not only you but also inspires the world outside you. That's where energetic healing has the potential to take you.   Follow Jonathan @behold_retreats Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Save 30% on any Organifi superfood product with code EVERFORWARD now through Dec 31, 2021 at www.Organifi.com/everforward  Save 15% on any Cured Nutrition functional mushroom and CBD product with code EVERFORWARD at www.CuredNutrition.com  Learn more and get complete show notes at https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/560 

Heart rate variability, or HRV, is an essential parameter to measure your heart health and stress levels at any point. While a higher variability of the metric signals that your body can push past strenuous exercises some more, a lower measure is an indication that it needs a break. Today we explore identified ways to improve your HRV – and all that they demand of you are simple, conscious changes in your everyday habits. Chase uses his personal story and backable science to teach you 10 simple tips that improve HRV. Referencing Mark Van Deusen’s article on Heart Rate Variability (Whoop), he touches on its nervous system origination, significance, stress impact, and applications so you can know why the HRV is a breakthrough metric for wellness. In addition, you’ll learn about the body’s regulatory processes of homeostasis and allostasis that are responsible for maintaining equilibrium despite internal and external changes (both central to your brain’s stress handling mechanism). For those of you new to the whole HRV study or seeking some of the best toolset, supplements, and product recommendations to start with, Chase also shares the products he personally uses and how they help him in his wellness journey – do not forget to tune in!   Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Get approved for your VA Home Loan in minutes with www.HeroLoan.com  Get your free WHOOP activity tracker band at https://join.whoop.com/everforward  Get fully structured water with the Somavedic Medic Green Ultra device and save 10% with code EVERFORWARD at www.Somavedic.com  10 Ways to Improve Your Heart Rate Variability https://www.whoop.com/thelocker/increase-hrv-heart-rate-variability/  Everything You Need to Know About Heart Rate Variability https://www.whoop.com/thelocker/heart-rate-variability-hrv/ The Benefits of Mindfulness and How to Practice It https://www.whoop.com/thelocker/benefits-of-mindfulness/  Episode 494 with Kristen Holmes on HRV and sleep https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/494 Episode 513 on how Chase improved his HRV by 40% https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/513

Challenges suck, but needless to say, they're an inevitable part of life. Whether they're personal or professional, they can strike when you least expect them and leave you feeling helpless and adrift… forcing you into situations you'd have never imagined before. What does it take to pull yourself from back there? How do you not fall apart? This week, Chase sits with Casey Adams on The Casey Adams Show podcast to revisit his journey as an ex-military man, health coach, and established podcaster, explaining how he reinvented himself continually to chase his passion despite the problems.  Burdened by a queue of stressors post his father's death, Chase battled with himself for years after the tragedy – physically, mentally, and emotionally, including an injury that led to reconstructive surgery in both his hips. The experience had a profound impact on his personal and professional life, and unexpectedly enough, turned it around for the better. Despite the odds, per his father's advice, Chase lives and advocates a life ever forward, one that's led by passion and a desire to do better. In this discussion, Chase breaks down his journey, explaining the pile-up of challenges and the succession of events that led him to the world of podcasts. Chase explains his uncompromising principles in life and how they've shaped his life's trajectory, the most important being a willingness to continually chase the next big thing and always show up. You'll also hear him break down invaluable podcasting lessons from his own experience – priceless advice from a thriving genius.   Follow Casey @casey Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Save 30% now through Dec 31 on Caldera Lab skincare with code EVERFORWARD at www.CalderaLab.com  Get $500 with your qualified VA Home Loan at www.HeroLoan.com  Learn more at https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/557 

Matthew Paetz returns on Ever Forward Radio to share how he has been navigating the seemingly endless period of uncertainty brought about by the pandemic—particularly around how he has been striving to shift from being what he calls an “unconscious consumer” to being a “conscious creator”. “I’m creating a life I’ve never had by doing things I’ve never done,” says Matthew, adding that his focus has been on building on himself over his achievements. One of the major ways he has been doing this over the past 18 months is by immersing himself in the world of psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy as a modality for addressing trauma. Matthew defines these guided sessions as “medicines for the soul”—contrasting it with alcohol which he calls “medicine for the ego”. He then breaks down the development of our ego and how these sessions allow you to detach from that ego and see your life from a completely different perspective. “These medicines, in a guided session, would be the greatest gift I could give the entire world,” says Matthew. He believes that, should the public embrace this gift, Western medicine as it pertains to mental health would be “eradicated” in a matter of months.   Follow Matthew @matthewpaetz Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Matthew first appeared in episode 383 Save 15% on Cured Nutrition with code EVERFORWARD at www.CuredNutrition.com  Learn more and watch the full video at https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/556

Robert J. Davis, PhD, is a health journalist with a public health background as well as the Author of The Healthy Skeptic: Cutting Through the HYPE About Your Health. As a journalist, Robert realized how much people are trying to lobby for their new exercise routines, diets, and hospitals. That opened his eyes to all the money and propaganda involved in skewing science and persuading the public to do certain things. So, should we be putting our trust into “industry experts” on the same level as scientists? Is the validity of health studies and journalism going away?

Alongside the world’s top experts in the aging field, NOVOS has developed a line of supplements that promote longevity. Chris explains that our chronological age is entirely distinct from our biological age. Determining our biological age, he says, can tell us how well our body is functioning. As we age biologically, we increase the likelihood of developing diseases such as heart disease, osteoporosis, glaucoma, Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, dementia, and most forms of cancer.

“I didn’t give up sugar by virtue; I gave it up by necessity.” When it comes to nutrition, nobody doubts that sugar is the bad guy. But for too many, that doesn’t make it any easier to avoid giving in to their sweet tooth. Today’s guest, Molly Carmel, knows that feeling, and has dedicated her life to helping others break up with sugar and improve their relationship with food overall. She encourages anybody to reach out if they’re finding it a challenge to stay consistent with a healthy nutritional lifestyle. “If you’re struggling in your relationship with food,” says Molly, “you deserve help.” Molly Carmel is an eating disorder and addiction therapist who helps her clients break free of food addiction, emotional eating, binge eating, and destructive dieting.

Joe DiStefano is a global authority on how to optimize wellness and longevity on the path to improving fitness and sports performance. After over 17 years of professional experience in the fitness industry, Joe has had the opportunity to coach some of the world's top athletes, instructed over 100 live events in 15+ countries, and spoken on the TED stage. In today’s multifaceted discussion, Joe gives his thoughts on crossing the threshold between a life of survival and a life of thriving, as he explores the emotions that come with survival (ex. shame, fear, guilt, etc.) and those virtues that allow one to thrive (ex. Love, humility, selflessness, etc.). In particular, Joe addresses the true nature of shame and how its destructive effects manifest themselves even before we engage in the thing that we perceive will bring us shame. “Whatever we think,” he says, “we basically receive.” He shares his personal rituals that have helped him break out of and steer clear of the trap of negativity, including ice baths and stream-of-consciousness writing. By rubbing up against the threshold of discomfort, says Joe, the mind and body develops a higher tolerance for pain. Finally, Joe explains why it’s more important today than ever before to surround yourself with circles of influence and constellations of support.   Follow Joe @coachjoedi Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Save 15% on Strong Coffee Company with code CHASE at www.StrongCoffeeCompany.com Save 20% on the new Chocolate Gold by Organifi with code EVERFORWARD at www.Organifi.com/everforward Get approved for your VA Home Loan in 5 minutes with Hero Loan at www.HeroLoan.com  Get the book King, Warrior, Magician, Lover at https://amzn.to/3mFMnaE  Learn more at https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/544

Dr. Sara Gottfried, MD is the Director of Precision Medicine at the Marcus Institute of Integrative Health at Thomas Jefferson University. Her work in precision medicine involves tracking data flows via wearables for her patients, who range from corporate executives to professional athletes. Initially developed as a medical model for cancer research, precision medicine is now being used more broadly, beyond oncology, as a highly personalized approach to treating patients. The data streams that Dr. Gottfried pools include biomarkers such as blood, urine, hormones, and cellular micronutrients. She also relies on genomic testing, an important factor when it comes to performance, recovery, and determining risk of injury. Another reference is data sets from wearables themselves (ex. WHOOP, Apple Watch, Garmin, Oura Ring, etc.). “Precision medicine,” says Dr. Gottfried, “is pulling together all those data streams so that we can personalize what is true for you.” Listen in as Dr. Gottfried explains how athletes and other top-performers looking to maximize their longevity can benefit from working with a specialist in precision medicine.   Follow Sara @saragottfriedmd Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Get your free WHOOP 4.0 band and save $30 on your new membership at http://join.whoop.com/everforward Save 20% on the at-home wellness test strips from Vessel Health with code EVERFOWARD20 at https://www.vesselhealth.com  Learn more and get complete show notes at https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/543

In today’s conversation, John Wolf shares a journey that saw him emerge from the depths of grief and loss to undergo a holistic transformation that ultimately led him to be the Chief Fitness Officer at Onnit. Having lost many of the people closest to him early in his life, John quickly found himself descending down a path of drug addiction. He talks about the years of inner work that he did (and continues to do) to maintain his self-worth, as well as the outer work he underwent to rebuild his body and indirectly build stronger belief systems as a result. John rediscovered his passion for fitness and martial arts down the road. Trading one “addiction” for another, John saw exercise as a way to continually reforge and optimize not only his body, but his entire being. In training his clients at Onnit, John uses an approach he calls “conscious coaching” that leads them into a state of flow “where skill and effort intersect.” To John, “ever forward” is a matter of maintaining this flow, of staying laser-focused on your purpose while staying receptive to continuous learning and growth.   Follow John @coachjohnwolf Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Save 20% on your entire first purchase from Legion Athletics with code EVERFORWARD at www.LegionAthletics.com  Save 20% on every purchase from Organifi with code EVERFORWARD at www.Organifi.com/everforward  Watch the video and learn more about John at https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/541

Studies show that, when performing any given task, we’re giving our attention to that task only half the time. Yet, as our guest explains, this is by design. Because we are overwhelmed with information (i.e. senses) every time we make a decision, our brains pay attention to be able to home in on the most important information we need at that particular moment. Listen in as Dr. Amisha Jha does a deep dive into the nature of attention and the three factors that contribute to (and deplete) our “attentional gas tank”. She explains how to cultivate a peak mind through mindfulness practices, and even shares the 12-minute daily exercise anybody can do to embody the same state of mindfulness as that of special operators in the military. Dr. Amishi Jha is a professor of psychology at the University of Miami and the author of Peak Mind. She serves as the Director of Contemplative Neuroscience for the Mindfulness Research and Practice Initiative, which she co-founded in 2010.

In this solo episode, Chase gives his thoughts on ketamine-assisted psychotherapy and his own life-changing sessions as Field Trip Health.   It was through the various studies conducted through Field Trip Health that Chase was truly exposed to the world of ketamine and its enhancing benefits to the psychotherapeutic process.   What was especially impactful for him was learning about the almost curative effects of psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy on servicemembers suffering from PTSD, severe anxiety, and depression.   After sifting through the research as well as hearing from the actual healthcare professionals working at Field Trip Health, Chase came to the conclusion that psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy is the future of healthcare as a whole, considering the trajectory of your life is largely downstream from your mental health.   Listen in as Chase offers his advice to those who, like himself, are exploring the world of psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy and why he believes so strongly in leaning into what feels right on your unique wellness journey.   He reflects back on his two, incredibly profound ketamine sessions at Field Trip Health, and how those two sessions gave Chase “years of [therapy] work in about an hour.” Watch the video and learn more at https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/538

Do you ever wonder why we exist here on planet Earth? With all the pressure and messaging from society and religion to be a certain way, have nice things, make more money, and reach a certain status, it’s often hard for us to realize the essence of being human, which is that our worth and power lie within us.  Best-selling author Doug Cartwright has learned that “if you’re using something external to solve an internal problem, you’re never going to get fulfilled.”  The truth is, you’re worthy of infinite love, peace, and joy just because you’re alive. Your worth is not dependent on anything but your existence. That’s kind of a relief, isn’t it? Though getting to a place where you’re living a deep, rich, meaningful life isn’t an easy journey, it’s a journey worth embarking on.

Ronan Levy is a pioneer in the therapeutic psychedelics industry. He is the Founder and Executive Chairman of Field Trip Health. With centres opening across North America, Field Trip Health helps people to heal and heighten their engagement with the world via the healing modality of psychedelics. “There’s doubt about it. We are in a psychedelic renaissance,” says Ronan, referring to the recent dramatic realignment of mainstream views around traditional medicine. Calling it “a massive change in the global zeitgeist”, this paradigm shift goes beyond health and wellness, reflecting a change in how we view emotions and even spirituality. Contributing heavily to this revolution is the mental health crisis that had already been on the rise for years but was further aggravated by the pandemic for the past year-and-a-half. Citing “significant humanitarian and economic implications”, Ronan says that “depression and anxiety disorders are going to become the leading global burden of disease, meaning they will cost the global economy more than any other disease out there, primarily from lost productivity.” With these realities in mind, Ronan dives deep into the history, science, and psychological and pro-social benefits of psychedelic-assisted therapy. He speaks on the common, decades-long misconceptions surrounding this subject, and the groundbreaking research done on ketamine and psilocybin that, if rediscovered in the world of conventional medicine, may become a key factor in eradicating not just the current mental health crisis, but many of the social and environmental ills we face today as well.   Follow Field Trip Health @fieldtriphealth Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Apply in 5 minutes for your VA Home Loan with Hero Loan at HeroLoan.com Save 15% on the new Euphoria drink elixirs from Cured Nutrition with code EVERFORWARD at CuredNutrition.com Learn more about Ronan and Field Trip Health at https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/535

With more and more research emerging around the long-term risks associated with traditional over-the-counter brands, says Nina Mullen, “we’re at a specific moment where mainstream consumers are more aware of the risks and just want to find holistic solutions.” She adds that not only naturopathic doctors, but even conventional medical professionals are starting to take notice of these disconcerting trends associated with Big Pharma. Nina is the Co-Founder of Hilma. The brand was launched in 2019 with three products, each of which covers its own unique category: 1) An immune support blend; 2) An upset stomach relief for occasional heartburn, antacid, and digestion; and 3) A head tension relief. Natural, clean label products have taken center-stage in virtually every consumer category, from consumables, beauty, household cleaners, and personal care. However, the medicine cabinet continues to be stuck in the past with most being stocked with the usual OTC legacy brands like Airborne, Emergen-C, or Tums. Hilma aims to disrupt this area by introducing preventative, long-term, and all-natural herbal options for everyday health needs to the mainstream consumer.   Follow Hilma @hilma_co Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Save 15% on the 100% grass fed and grass finished beef sticks from Paleovalley with code EVERFORWARD at https://paleovalley.com/everforward Save 15% on the new Euphoria drinks from Cured Nutrition with code EVERFORWARD at https://www.curednutrition.com/drinkcured/  Learn more and get complete show notes at https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/534

Our outer world is a direct reflection of our inner world, and optimal health is all about adopting the right habits that support those two worlds. It all starts with the self-awareness and openness to change embodied in Ayurvedic medicine. It’s a healing system which teaches us that change is an intrinsic quality in nature, and so why shouldn’t we see that reality of continuous change in ourselves? In other words, Ayurveda teaches us to turn to nature for wisdom on how we, as human beings, should discern what’s best for our life. When we experience symptoms of any kind, whether internally or externally, it is an indicator that we are not in harmony with the world around us, or with ourselves. From how we’ve been eating and sleeping to how we’ve been managing our relationships and career—all of these things either support or weaken our health. Listen in and learn how we can adopt the principles of Ayurveda to take full control over our life and achieve optimal health.

Today’s conversation is a sobering deep dive into the highly controversial but crucial subject that is the COVID-19 vaccine, featuring Jonathan Baktari MD. Dr. Baktari is the CEO of e7 Health, a Las Vegas-based company focused on preventative health and wellness. He kicks off the conversation with a high-level explanation of exactly what a vaccine is. The goal of a vaccine, he says, is to take advantage of the immune system’s strengths by “tricking” the body. The body is injected with a portion of a germ, whether that germ is a virus or bacteria. The dose is small enough to get the body to detect the germ, thereby training the immune system to become efficient at fighting it while minimizing the damage it could have done to the body if the germ were “whole”. Dr. Baktari and Chase go on to unpack the trickiest questions the world is now faced with as in navigating the ever-evolving COVID-19 crisis—from how to interpret official data, to the issue of personal freedom versus the common good, to the under-addressed and overlooked public health issue that is a lack of education on prevention.   Follow Jonathan @baktarimd Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Save 20% on your entire first purchase from Legion Athletics with code EVERFORWARD at https://www.legionathletics.com  Save 15% on Sugarbreak with code CHASE at http://sugarbreak.com/chase  Learn more at https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/530

Science shows us that sex and intimacy are some of the most bonding human experiences of our lives. So… what happens when religion gets thrown into the mix? Kat Harris is here to have an eye-opening discussion about boundaries, consent, monogamy, infidelity, shame, and most prominently, waiting until marriage to have sex.

She began to question the word of God and why she’d been waiting until marriage to have sex. As more and more women of faith become burdened with sexual shame, feeling unequipped to confidently explore both the dating world and the world of singleness, Kat is on a mission to free them of their shackles and help them discover their own sexual freedom.

How we organize our day, the tasks we do at night, our bedtime routine, and our bedding all impact the quality of our sleep.  We all know a person (or two or three) who brag about being able to run on 3-4 hours of sleep… but why?

Every child has a dream of what they’ll be when they grow up. For Jesse Bradley, his dream was to be a professional athlete. His dream came to fruition, but at a price he never imagined he’d have to pay.  During his time traveling the world, he landed in Zimbabwe playing professional men’s soccer. Though, medication meant to protect him from malaria brought on a brutal bout of illness, ending his dream career. “… and yet, it was the greatest growth period of my life,” he says, “I was fighting for my life for one year, it took 10 years to fully recover.” When it seems like your life is falling apart, what do you rely on? For many, it’s hope, yet half of Americans experience hopelessness. The good news is there are simple steps you can take to overcome hopelessness and find the light at the end of the tunnel.

The pandemic, political disagreements, war… there are so many sources of separation and loneliness in the world. That’s why, now more than ever, we must shed light on the importance of human connection, attunement, and cultivating presence within ourselves as well as with others. Meaningful connection is an innate, primal need from the time we’re born to the time we return to the dirt of the Earth.  When we find that connection, we enter a flow state and even our brain waves become synchronized. Imagine the immense change and growth we could experience if we put more energy into connecting with ourselves and one another! Dr. Edward Bodkin and Ashley Pallathra have co-authored the insightful book, Missing Each Other, that delves into the idea that learning about yourself makes it easier to connect with others.

Andrea Owen is a life-coach who helps high-achieving women let go of perfectionism, control, and isolation and choose courage and confidence instead. She is known for her signature platform, “Your Kick-Ass Life”, which began in 2008 as a blog on all things women’s empowerment, before expanding it into a suite of educational tools such as podcasts and books.

She also gives her thoughts on what men can do to contribute to this cultural shift and why different lived experiences between males and females can actually serve as a bridge rather than a divide towards equality.   Follow Andrea @heyandreaowen Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Save 15% on Sugarbreak with code CHASE at http://sugarbreak.com/chase  Join the Ever Forward Book Club http://bit.ly/efbookclub  Learn more about Andrea and get complete show notes at https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/519 

When actress Noel Elie was diagnosed with Lyme disease, she decided not to rely on mainstream medicine but instead opted to utilize alternative treatment modalities, beginning with plant therapy. For Noel, her very first introduction to plant medicine through microdosing psilocybin and ayahuasca served as an amazing gateway into her journey toward holistic healing. “I don’t look at it as being defiant; I look at it as being curious,” says Noel, speaking on her decision to look the other way despite her doctors’ advice at the outset of her diagnosis. Noel describes the painful letting-go process that followed when she realized that she and her husband had to find a new home after testing the house for mold, and how this process helped her become more intentional about her health and possessions. Finally, Noel touches on the power of intuition and how to surrender yourself to it when faced with a decision.   Follow Noel @noel_elie Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode Resources: Save 10% on any Somavedic device with code EVERFORWARD at https://www.somavedic.com  Somavedic and HRV study Somavedic Medic and its effects on HRV (summary on page 35) Save 30% on your first order of Brami Snacks with code EVERFORWARD30 at https://bramisnacks.com  Learn more about Noel and get complete show notes at https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/518 

Joe Percoco is the Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Titan, which he refers to as “a premier investment firm, but for everyone.” Titan is Joe’s response to Wall Street’s reputation for catering almost exclusively to the ultra-wealthy. His team is dedicated to the long-term growth of investors’ capital by following their “time-tested investment philosophy: identifying the rare species of stocks known as “compounders” and holding on tight.” Listen in as Joe offers some high-level wisdom on the world of finance and why it’s crucial to think like an owner instead of a gambler in the investment world. Asked about the necessity of risk in the investment world, Joe refers to the well-known saying: “Ships weren’t meant to stay in the harbor.” Hard-earned cash is not meant to be stuffed under your bed. Anybody who wants to grow their wealth has to take risks in the market. In fact, adopting this attitude toward investing forges a mindset that sees opportunity even in a downturn in the economy. It is a mindset that gets you to say, “Let’s deploy every ship we’ve got ashore, because this is an amazing time to buy and invest.” Joe also explains Titan’s unique vision-mission as an investment firm and his expectations for the future of the industry.   Follow Joe @jpercoco Follow Titan @titanvest Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Get your annual Swell Score membership for only $59 with checkout code EVERFORWARD at https://www.theswellscore.com  Save 15% on Sugarbreak with code CHASE at https://www.sugarbreak.com/chase  Learn more about Titan and get complete show notes at https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/517 

Ryan Kelley is the Founder and President of The Home Loan Expert, which he built from the ground-up, with zero capital, in the middle of the Great Recession in 2008. Today, the company is one of the fastest-growing direct mortgage lenders in the country. Asked how he did it, Ryan says that, from the very beginning he simply put his focus on anything but profit and never taking his foot off the gas, even as he began to experience growth. In an industry typically characterized by greed, The Home Loan Expert found tremendous success by running in the opposite direction and paying it forward. Ryan speaks on the initiatives that fuel his passion for what he does. His love for the outdoors inspired him to establish The Keep Climbing Foundation, which initially came from an idea between him and his friends to climb mountains to raise money for childhood cancer. Today, the foundation supports a variety of causes that are in need of financial support and awareness. Having missed out on the opportunity to serve in the military, Ryan was driven to create Hero Loan, a program that shortens the turnaround time to complete a VA home loan—from up to 60 days down to as little as 14 days.   Follow Ryan @thehomeloanexpert Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Save 20% on your entire first purchase of Legion Athletics with code EVERFORWARD at https://legionathletics.com  Learn more about Ryan and get complete show notes at https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/516 

For transgender activist Precious Brady-Davis, her turning point came when she realized that she had to love herself first before she would be able to open her heart and attract those who could truly love her. “People can’t give you what you don’t have.”, she says. Having grown up in the Pentecostal faith, she recalls her seemingly endless struggle with being othered by her own religious circle for being a biracial, gender-nonconforming kid. But the same “neglect, instability, and abandonment” that she experienced daily as a child only fueled her determination to find acceptance—even if it meant stepping away from her faith community. Her journey led her to become what she is today: “A trans woman fully actualized, absolutely confident, and precious.” She lives with her husband Myles—who is transmasculine—and infant daughter Zayn. In July 2021, Precious released her memoir, I Have Always Been Me, in which she looks back on 35 years that began with immense trauma, and how she was able to turn it all around.   Follow Precious @preciousbradydavis Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode Resources: Save 15% on Sugarbreak with checkout code CHASE at https://www.sugarbreak.com/chase  Learn more about Precious and get complete show notes at https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/515

In this solo episode, Chase breaks down the exact protocol and the results he experienced after one whole month of using psilocybin. Chase’s first experience with psychedelics began in the Fall of 2020. But medicinal mushrooms have been a vital part of his nutritional routine for half a decade prior dipping into the hallucinogenic variety. This is thanks in large part to Shawn Stevenson of The Model Health Show who promoted the scientifically proven wonders of lion’s mane, reishi, and cordyceps, among other varieties of functional mushrooms. Listen in as Chase dives deep into his two-day-on, one-day-off microdosing schedule, the exact ingredients each dose consisted of, and the impact of this protocol to his physiological and mental faculties. He describes the transformational effects of the experience and explains how he tracked the physiological changes that took place over time, which included a staggering 40% increase in HRV!   Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Save 20% on Organifi at http://organifi.com/everforward  Get your free WHOOP 3.0 activity tracker and save $30 off of your new membership at http://join.whoop.com/everforward  Learn more and get complete show notes at https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/513 

Cal Callahan is the host of The Great Unlearn podcast, on which he dives into unlearning and questioning what the world taught us, and—in the process—how to be the truest version of yourself, minus the bullshit. Chase and Cal kick things off with a discussion on parenting, with Cal disavowing the oft-quoted saying, “There’s no such thing as a bad kid; just a bad parent.” There was a time he believed it, but not anymore. He now insists that parenting is about showing up for your kids while allowing them to experience the fullness of life. It’s about setting appropriate boundaries but never beating yourself up when your children stray on occasion.  “I’m not doing this because I want to be a cool dad,” says Cal. “I’m doing it because I want this kid to have his own experience. And I want to show him that I trust him and I trust his judgement.”  And just as Cal had to unlearn everything he thought he knew about raising kids, so too did he have to forgo many of his beliefs about how to live his own life. Listen in as Cal dares us to question our belief system, to figure out whether our beliefs are really ours or someone else’s, or to simply discover whether or not we’ve been BSing ourselves all our lives. He invites us on a journey back into our body, where we’re able to put our trust in our hearts over our minds. Finally, he challenges us to continue loving our wounded selves even as we unlearn our old paradigms and step into a new phase of knowing.   Follow Cal @cal.callahan Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Key Highlights Cal reflects on how he was forced to reevaluate his “picture-perfect” existence when he found himself fearing for his life during the 2017 Las Vegas shooting. Most people never experience a radical come-to-Jesus moment as Cal did in 2017. How can the average person find their own unique path to healing and making big changes in their life? How can you continue to love the past version of yourself and glean valuable lessons from that “previous” life as you step into a new phase of knowing.

In 2012, Ken Cook, President of Environmental Working Group (EMG) presented a 22-minute talk called “10 Americans”. In it, he shares EMG’s research on ten individuals across the country to determine how dependent a person’s toxic load was on where they lived. What they found was that these ten Americans had over 200 cancer-causing chemicals in them that could potentially lead to infertility, thyroid problems, and autoimmune conditions. Other than the toxins themselves, there was only one commonality shared by every individual in this study: All ten of these Americans were still in the womb. A decade later, we’re being barraged by more harmful chemicals in our everyday lives than ever before. What can we do to start lowering our “toxic bucket” today? Dr. Mindy Pelz, DC is a holistic health and fasting expert. Her tips on fasting and alternative health can be found on her YouTube channel as well as the podcast she founded and hosts, The Resetter Podcast. Dr. Pelz is the author of three bestselling books The Menopause Reset, The Reset Factor, and The Reset Kitchen. Dr. Pelz is also the founder of Family Life Wellness (formerly Family Life Chiropractic), a biohacking center in the Bay Area focused on speeding up the healing process and maximizing performance. Listen in as Dr. Pelz shares how to lower your toxic bucket in the modern world, how fasting can nip chronic disease in the bud, why experiencing symptoms such as fever or mucus buildup is actually your body’s innate healing mechanism in action, and why addressing immunocompromisation is far more important to ending the pandemic than vaccines and lockdowns.   Follow Dr. Pelz @dr.mindypelz Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Key Highlights Toxins are seeping into our environment and into our bodies, contributing to rising infertility. What exactly are the reasons for this alarming rise in infertility? What is our “toxic bucket” and how do we keep it low as we live our day-to-day lives? Dr. Pelz explains how fasting can overcome the toxins that barrage us daily and contribute to weight loss, mental energy, clarity, and sleep.

What makes collagen such a unique protein and why should you care? For starters, collagen is the most abundant protein in your body, making up about a third of your body’s protein composition. It’s known as the “glue” that holds everything together, and once you hit 25, your body’s ability to create collagen begins to weaken; hence the “aches and pains” of old age. But it doesn’t have to be this way. Today’s guest, Charlie Bailes, says that he is in better shape at 34 than he was at 24, mainly thanks to incorporating more collagen into his diet. But what really opened his eyes to the power of collagen was its healing effect on his daughter Vivian, who at 1-and-a-half years old, routinely became sick. After introducing collagen into her diet (alongside other healthy lifestyle choices such as cutting out gluten, vegetable oils, and sugar), Vivian, who was told by multiple pulmonologists that she would be on an inhaler for the rest of her life, now only uses her inhaler about two times a year. Collagen had changed the lives of Charlie and his family, and he wanted to pay it forward. In 2018, Charlie started CB Supplements, founded on the three pillars of premium product, education, and customer appreciation.   Follow Charlie @cebailes and @cbsupplements Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Save 15% on Strong Coffee Company with code CHASE at https://strongcoffeecompany.com Save $5 on CB Collagen at https://cbsupplements.com  Collagen study: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/jocd.13435   For complete show notes visit https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/509 

“It all begins with creating a foundation of healthy habits which can lead to long-term wellness.” Eric Champ is a Marine Corps veteran who currently owns and operates Champ City Holistic Fitness and a 14-by-7 mobile gym. He is living his passion, but it didn’t come overnight. In fact, there was a point in his life when Eric didn’t even know if he would live to see the day he turned 40 years old. While in the Marine Corps, holistic health and wellness was the last thing on Eric’s list of priorities. He partied almost every night, loved his drink, and eventually ballooned up to over 250 pounds. He knew deep inside that something was horribly wrong with his lifestyle, but he never could never admit it just because he was too afraid to face himself. But the day inevitably came when Eric had to come to terms with what was happening, when he had to engage in “that showdown with myself”. He made a fateful decision, while gazing at his deteriorating body in front of the mirror, that he would turn his life around. That decision, coupled with his wife Katie’s determination to keep him accountable, drove Eric to keep his eyes firmly rooted on his new path. The next morning, Eric grabbed his shorts, headed to the YMCA down the road, and walked a mile on the treadmill. And so began a journey that would later inspire him to launch a fitness platform that would quickly grow into a thriving worldwide business.   Follow Eric @champcityatx Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode Resources Save 20% on your entire first purchase of Legion Athletics with code EVERFORWARD at https://legionathletics.com  Get complete show notes and learn more about Eric at https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/508 

The cost of pet healthcare has been rising in recent years and there seems to be no end in sight. What’s more, the best technology and the best care have mostly been available only to those who can afford them.

One of the great attributes of masculine energy is that it pushes us forward—it drives us to advance in a positive direction. But without self-esteem backing up that masculine energy, we may still be able to move forward, but in a negative direction. In today’s episode, Angelo Sisco of Alpha Hippie talks all things manhood and the oftentimes elusive road to unlocking the professional man within you. So many of us are obsessed with blazing a trail that, when we look back, we realize we’ve forgotten our heart. On the other hand, there are those of us who live in our hearts and their thoughts without ever taking action. Listen in as Angelo explains why the first step to embracing your masculinity is actually in nurturing your feminine energy (or what he calls “grace”). He tells us that the lack of understanding and, by extension, the inadequate integration of one’s masculine and feminine energies is the cause for many of the issues we face in the world today.   Follow Angelo @angelo_cisco Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Save 15% on the premium CBD products from Cured Nutrition with code EVERFORWARD at https://www.curednutrition.com Save 20% on The Good multi-function serum by Caldera Lab with code EVERFORWARD at https://calderalab.com/everforward  Learn more about Angelo and get complete show notes at https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/505 

“You can transition from just being aware of your chaotic and toxic thoughts to being empowered to catch these thoughts in their early stages, manage them. From there, you can improve your overall peace and wellbeing.” Dr. Caroline Leaf is a communication pathologist and cognitive neuroscientist who for almost 40 years has been doing research into the mind-brain connection, the nature of mental health, and the formation of memory. Dr. Leaf is the host of the podcast Cleaning Up Your Mental Mess and the author of the book Cleaning Up Your Mental Mess: 5 Simple, Scientifically Proven Steps to Reduce Anxiety, Stress, and Toxic Thinking. We talk in-depth about the book in today’s conversation. Her overall message? You are not your brain. Your mind, in fact, controls your neurophysiology. When you understand your mind, you can begin to drive change in your brain and in your body. It’s all under your control. She says that, contrary to popular belief, emotional and even physiological symptoms that result from stress are not the result of an irreversibly “broken” brain. Rather, it’s a question of your paradigms or the narrative lens that you see the world through. “Because our brain is neuroplastic and we make a million new cells every second, we have a lot of power to influence and change” the stories we tell ourselves. Listen in and learn how you can become empowered to manage your “messy mind” so that you can then give the podium to the “wise mind”.   Follow Caroline @drcarolineleaf Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Save 20% on Pure and Gold by Organifi with code EVERFORWARD at http://organifi.com/everforward  Get Cleaning Up Your Mental Mess on Amazon at https://amzn.to/3BENRrc  Join the Ever Forward Book Club at http://bit.ly/efbookclub  Get your free 30-day audio book trial with Audible at http://audibletrial.com/everforward  Learn more about Dr. Leaf and get complete show notes at https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/504 

Being grateful for the cards you were dealt from birth—whether you label them as “good” or “bad”—is the key to thriving in life despite the challenges (whether physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, etc.) unique to you. That gratitude allows you to contribute some good to the world because you’re pouring from an overflowing reservoir. But if your perspective is that of lack and resentfulness, your reservoir is depleted; and then your chances of contributing any good to the world are nil. Today’s guest, Courtney Turner, believes that everyone has the ability to shape their destiny, and it starts with discovering that potential in you. “A lot of the time,” says Courtenay, “when people are filled with despair or depression or anxiety, it's a lack of hope. And lack of hope stems from feeling like you have no control over your future. But the truth is, we don’t know what the future holds.” By remembering the things that we have overcome or succeeded at in the past, we can pinpoint our strengths, be grateful for them, and then use those gifts to chart a brighter path going forward.

With a childhood defined by an almost endless barrage of abuse from the people closest to him, and an early adulthood filled with all manner of destructive coping mechanisms in response to those tragic early years, Khalil Rafati had a long road ahead of him to rewire his mind and direct his energy toward the good. From a life of family trauma, homelessness, substance abuse, and at one point being a convicted felon, Khalil has completely transformed his life. Today, Khalil is still addicted—only he has switched out the drugs and alcohol for superfoods and juices. His passion for health led him to found SunLife Organics, a rapidly growing chain of health food cafés with locations in California, Texas, and Arizona. He shares his unique approach to service, which includes allowing his staff to offer items on the house if the customer has recently fallen on hard times. “A lot of people come into SunLife not just for the human connection,” says Khalil. “A lot of people come into SunLife as a lighthouse in the storm.” Beyond the smoothies, Khalil believes that SunLife’s customers come in to be loved, and his ultimate job is to shower them with the love, healing, and inspiration they crave.   Follow Khalil @khalilrafati Follow SunLife Organics @sunlifeorganics Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Save 20% with code EVERFORWARD on Organifi at http://organifi.com/everforward Get his book I Forgot to Die https://amzn.to/2UzcXHq  Get his book Remembering to Live https://amzn.to/3znOjbG  Learn more about Khalil and SunLife Organics at https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/502 

“Let’s put less emphasis on losing 10, 20, 30 pounds and more on what hot, healthy, and confident mean to you.” This is the motto that Lauren Hubert decided to embody as 2021 rolled out. But getting to the point where she could proclaim and live out this mindset for herself was a journey plagued with doubt and insecurity. After gaining nearly 20 pounds as a freshman at Florida State University, Lauren was determined to shed the weight and regain her self-confidence. Unfortunately, she ended up going down a destructive path defined by hours of running, an extreme calorie deficit, and closing herself off from all social events for fear of getting tempted to eat the “wrong” foods. It took a couple of years studying to become a registered dietician before Lauren realized just how toxic her mindset toward health and wellness was up till then. In 2019, with a renewed purpose, Lauren established The Sorority Nutritionist. Listen in as Lauren touches on the value of patience and setting expectations as we create our fitness goals; how to manage failure, avoid burnout, and maintain our positivity as we strive for these goals; not letting yourself be defined by your failures and weaknesses; and how to overcome the two biggest struggles with health and wellness that most people go through today.   Follow Lauren @sorority.nutritionist Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Save 15% on the grass fed beef sticks from Paleovalley with code EVERFORWARD at https://www.paleovalley.com/everforward  Learn more at https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/501

Statistics show that the majority of Americans are now obese, in spite of the fact the fitness industry is bigger today than at any other point in time. Sal Di Stefano of Mind Pump Media dives deep into this alarming disconnect and goes through the laundry list of issues that emerge as a result of poor health both on an individual level and on a society level. In 2021, Sal published the book The Resistance Training Revolution, which details his observations and lessons learned after over 20 years in the fitness world. Frustrated at how the industry has failed to adequately address an obesity crisis that only continues to get worse, Sal wrote the book to tackle some of the common myths and misconceptions around health and fitness. In particular, he hopes to change the mainstream paradigm regarding resistance training, which he believes is “the best form of exercise to burn fat, boost metabolism, and achieve health benefits you cannot obtain from other forms of exercise.” “I made the book to specifically focus on trying to get people to adopt a form of exercise that has now been proven through study, but also one that I’ve seen through experience to be the most effective form of exercise for all of the health problems that we tend to run into in modern society—everything from obesity to diabetes to dementia to Alzheimer’s to loss of mobility to hormone issues. I’m trying to change the stigma that surrounds this form of exercise.” Sal goes on to explain why cardio and tracking calories burned during exercise are two of the worst things to focus on when trying to lose weight. He then gives his thoughts on the dangers of the “self love” trend and why you should never conflate “self image” with “body image”.   Follow Sal @mindpumpsal Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Save 20% on your first purchase from Legion Athletics with code EVERFORWARD at https://www.buylegion.com  For complete show notes and to learn more about Sal visit https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/500 

Chase and May are joined today by Kara and Caleb Campbell. Kara is a celebrity event planner and human connection facilitator, and Caleb is a West Point graduate, former US Army officer, former NFL player, and former US Olympic bobsled athlete. Today, Chase, May, Kara, and Caleb talk all things relationships and the importance and necessity of continuous growth and maintaining a space for you to thrive in. They speak on how this all allows for the introduction of deep, meaningful relationships into your life as well as the strengthening of the relationships you already have. They also dive deep into emotional honesty as being fundamental to progression (or regression, if you lack it). Emotional honesty, they say, serves as a guide that allows you to filter the friendships and other relationships that serve you from those that don’t. That honesty also helps you accept the ease of falling in love and finding your person. Finally, they reflect on why your perspective of events, particularly challenging ones, is the key factor to your getting through them while taking away valuable lessons for growth. From the divine ambush, discover how you can turn the holy frustration which follows into radical acceptance and, at last, go from there into sacred flow.   Follow Kara @bykaraelise Follow Caleb @caleb_campbell Follow May @mayyazdi Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Save 15% on organic instant coffee from Strong Coffee Company with code CHASE at https://strongcoffeecompany.com/?ref=idvqn2vvx5y Save 15% on the 100% grass fed beef sticks from Paleovalley with code EVERFORWARD at https://paleovalley.com/store/beef-sticks For complete show notes visit https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/499 

Wendy McCallum is a burnout and balance coach, author, and speaker. In this conversation, she recounts her own struggles dealing with a high-stress lifestyle in the past, as well as the common signs and symptoms of burnout. She offers practical tools that anyone can use to both recover from burnout and prevent it from happening again in the future. She talks about unhealthy coping mechanisms such as alcohol, food, and social media and how we can learn to rely less on these crutches and become more present. Wendy also gives her thoughts on the unique challenges that many of us experienced in 2020 and continue to face in 2021. One of her observations at the tail-end of the pandemic has been the emergence of a “third shift” in the lives of working professionals. If our “first shift” represents our actual career and our “second shift” refers to the people under our care—whether our children or aging parents—our new “third shift” is helping to orchestrate or manage schooling from home. This, of course, is on top of the overall anxiety all of us have felt in the past year-and-a-half. The pandemic and the resulting lockdowns have led to a significantly higher stress load on the average human being. Burnout is one of the symptoms of this stress. Whether one came into 2020 physically, mentally, and emotionally healthy, or already overworked, almost everybody has had to deal with exhaustion. (On the other hand, a very small minority—mainly business owners and employers—have found opportunities to become flexible and even more productive in their work.) Wendy reflects on her own experience with burnout and how she learned to create a life that she no longer needed to escape from.   Follow Wendy @wendymccallumcoach Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Save 15% on instant organic coffee from Strong Coffee Company with code CHASE at https://strongcoffeecompany.com/?ref=idvqn2vvx5y Save 15% on the cinnamon and honey CBD sticks from Cured Nutrition with code EVERFORWARD at https://bit.ly/3pJAMWr For complete show notes and to learn more about Wendy visit https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/498

“If we have a platform that allows us to account for the physiological and psychological variables that impact our performance, then we can effectively choose our level of performance at any given moment.” Kristen Holmes is the Vice President of Performance Science at WHOOP, a platform that delivers personalized insights on your fitness, sleep, and recovery to you in real-time, effectively facilitating the connection between you and your body. According to Kristen, WHOOP allows us to apply our behaviors, because once we can understand, in a quantifiable way, why our body is performing the way it currently is, we then gain the confidence to be intentional in everything we do—from the sports we play to the daily routines we live out day-to-day. Ultimately, we’re all just trying to be as engaged, present, and available as we can be, no matter the task at hand. To be able to track performance changes through data in real-time is a powerful way to pinpoint weaknesses, fill gaps, and adapt to environmental stressors. Listen in as Kristen does a deep dive into how personalized insights by WHOOP can help anybody, athlete or otherwise, to live their lives with more energy and joy. She also shares why it’s not just the physiological parameters that influence our adaptive capacity; that the research indicates that the psychological component impacts us more profoundly than anything we can do physiologically.   Follow Kristen @kristen_holmes2126 Follow WHOOP @whoop Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Get your WHOOP 3.0 activity tracker band for free at https://join.whoop.com/everforward Save 20% on your entire first purchase from Legion Athletics, #1 all-natural supplements brand in the world, with code EVERFORWARD at https://bit.ly/2LmdpUr The Superpower of the 21st Century: Controlling and Directing Thought. by Kristen Holmes For expanded show notes and more info on WHOOP visit https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/494   

As with any journey of self-improvement, weight loss starts and ends with mindset. “Stop thinking of food as ‘good’ or ‘bad’,” says today’s guest, Carter Good. “There’s just food and the context in which it is eaten.” The struggle to form healthy nutrition and lifestyle habits comes down to the stories that you tell yourself around every decision you make, big or small. Carter himself attributes his past obesity to “using food as an emotional suppressant.” Carter goes on to say, “It’s really about reframing things and getting people to a place where they don’t feel like they have to make better choices and they have to exercise, but that they get to do these things.” Carter Good is a weight loss coach and the founder of the Leaner for Life community. He shares the story of how he lost 100 pounds in eight months, and why the hardest part of his journey came only after he lost all that weight.   Follow Carter @cartergood Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Get the best night's sleep of your life with Chili Sleep and save up 15-20% on either the Chili Pad or Ooler at https://www.chilisleep.com/ChaseChewning Leaner for Life: A FREE 5-Part Video Series to Kickstart Your Weight Loss Journey Learn more at https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/493 

More often than not, out of our most challenging moments emerge our greatest opportunities. It took only 24 hours to turn young Logan Sneed’s entire world upside down. A college athlete and aspiring entrepreneur, a stage-4 brain cancer diagnosis was the last thing Logan ever expected at that point in his life. But that’s exactly what happened following a near-accident on the road when Logan blacked out while FaceTiming his girlfriend. Together with his strong-willed parents, Logan was able to connect with one of the most sought-after neurosurgeons in the world, who thankfully managed to extract the egg-sized tumor. But just when Logan thought he was in the clear, he was given ten years to live with no word of hope whatsoever. Even after receiving his “death sentence”, Logan soldiered on, determined to find a solution. He found it when a long-time mentor encouraged him to take up the ketogenic diet, which at the time was still widely unheard of. Logan went all-in and not only found a new lease on life, but also decided to share his experiences with the world on social media. In spite of a barrage of haters who doubted his story and the legitimacy of his so-called “keto diet”, there were enough people who were inspired by his journey for Logan to realize that he could monetize his growing brand. Even this wasn’t the end of Logan’s trials. Listen in as he describes the lowest point in his journey so far—even beyond the diagnosis—as well as his betrayal at the hands of a man he once called “mentor”. But Logan also shares why, when all is said and done, cancer was the greatest thing that ever happened to him, having led him down the path to discovering his purpose and impacting thousands of lives (and rapidly counting) for the better.   Follow Logan @logansneed_ Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Get your free variety sample pack of LMNT Recharge at http://drinklmnt.com/everforward  Save 15% on the 100% grass fed beef sticks from Paleovalley at https://paleovalley.com Watch the video and learn more about Logan at https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/492 

Up till only a few years ago, Sean and Dala McDevitt never saw themselves leading a fast-growing community of wellness enthusiasts with 19 coaches on staff that has led to over 2800 people completely transforming their lives. The couple had always had a passion for health and fitness (they actually met at a gym) even back when they worked traditional jobs (Sean was in sales and marketing, and Dala was a labor and delivery nurse). In 2016, Dala set up her Instagram profile @dalalovesdumbbells to share how she found and healed herself through fitness, with the hope of inspiring and elevating others as well. Monetizing the brand was not on her radar; that is, until her budding community began referring to themselves with the hashtag #DLDNation. Two years later, Sean and Dala decided to quit full-time employment to fully dedicate themselves to #DLDNation. There was nothing easy about both Sean and Dala leaving their traditional career and plunging headfirst into the world of entrepreneurship; specifically in the health and wellness coaching space. What’s more, neither Sean nor Dala were “certified” trainers or nutritionists. Listen in as the McDevitts go down memory lane and speak on lessons learned since their life-changing decision to become online trainers exclusively through the #DLDNation brand, including how they navigated the many challenges of running a coaching business brought on by the pandemic.   Follow Sean @fitnessshaman Follow Dala @dalalovesdumbbells Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Save 15% on CBN tinctures from Cured Nutrition at https://bit.ly/3iZWINu  Watch the full video and learn more about Sean and Dala at https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/491 

John Malanca was inspired to start United Patients Group in 2011 after a totally unexpected episode when his father-in-law Stan was diagnosed with Stage 4 lung cancer along with a brain tumor on his brain stem. The situation seemed hopeless, seeing their father going from being a seemingly healthy 77-year-old one day, to being given a mere two weeks to live the next. “When you’re diagnosed,” says John, recalling those moments of desperation, “you’ll try anything.” That “anything”, as fate would have it, was cannabis. They started by giving Stan THC capsules infused with coconut oil in order to get him to start eating again. It worked. A day later, he was back at work on a computer. Nine months after the diagnosis, John’s family got an email that simply stated “no evidence of recurrent disease.” That was in 2011. Today, Stan is alive and well. Listen in as John shares the exciting journey that emerged out of that harrowing experience. He describes the many benefits of the cannabis plant and, by extension, naturopathic modalities, and how these can help bring the body back to homeostasis.   Follow United Patients Group @unitedpatientsgroup Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Save 15% on CBN tinctures from Cured Nutrition with code EVERFORWARD at http://bit.ly/2RmXcja Learn more at https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/490 

“I don’t know any guy who grew up dreaming of starting a male fertility company,” says today’s guest, Khaled Kteily, before proceeding to share the story of why he, in fact, decided to do just that. “There are moments in your life that sometimes take you down unexpected paths.” Khaled’s own unexpected path began with a freak accident in Tulsa, Oklahoma during his time as a health and life sciences consultant. One day, after a coffee run during a road trip with colleagues, the car was forced to do a sudden break, causing the scalding hot beverages to spill all over Khaled’s lap. His skin was ripped clean off and he suffered second-degree burns that took a month-and-a-half to heal. Months later, a close friend of Khaled’s found out he had cancer, and so he froze his sperm before beginning a chemotherapy process that would likely leave him infertile. Inspired, Khaled visited a sperm bank to do the same. Frustrated by the awkward and clinical process involved in sperm freezing, alongside the alarming lack of conversations around declining male fertility rates, Khaled sought to make a change. This was the spark that led to the founding of Legacy in 2018 and its release of the first product which allows men to test and freeze their sperm in the comfort of their own home, and obtain personalized recommendations based on their results.   Follow Legacy @givelegacyinc Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Save 15% with code CHASE15 on the Chili Pad and 20% with code CHASE20 on the Ooler from Chili Sleep at https://www.chilisleep.com/chasechewning Watch the video and learn more about Legacy at https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/489  Get Dr. Swan's book Count Down at https://amzn.to/3xoK3HU or get the audio book version for free from Audible at http://audibletrial.com/everforward

Born from the aches and pains that come with the territory for every professional athlete, Beam was co-founded by Matt Lombardi and Kevin Moran. As avid crossfit competitors, ironman triathletes, marathoners, the two decided to search high and low for an all-natural remedy that met their personal wellness standards. Their choice? CBD. In this conversation, Matt and Kevin go in-depth on what they call the “Beam 4”—the four pillars of health embodied by the Beam brand. These are balance, performance, recovery, and sleep. The Beam 4 was conceived out of the desire to cater to the needs of both professional athletes and the general wellness consumer. Listen in as Matt and Kevin explain how they developed Beam’s current lineup of products. Some of the topics we cover include how they collect and interpret data, both quantitatively and qualitatively, to improve the efficacy of Beam’s sleep product, dream; how the focus, elevate, and clarity, products boost your energy without the crash; and why they decided to separate “recovery” and “sleep” into two different categories.   Follow beam @beam Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Save up to 20% on the best night's sleep of your life with Chili Sleep at https://www.chilisleep.com/ChaseChewning Learn more at https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/484

Every single one of our habits, good and bad, spring out of a thought process that has been (and continues to be) molded and shaped by how we interpret our day-to-day experiences. If we want to change any negative aspect of our lives, whether it be around our physical or mental health, how we communicate with others, or manage our time or money, it all starts with becoming self-aware of our own deep-seated beliefs and paradigms, then reframing our interpretation of the events that formed those beliefs and paradigms. Listen in as Taylor Ellis shares how to nip destructive habits in the bud by catching negative thoughts as they come, and how to establish habits that are in alignment with the identity of the person that we want to be. She talks about her previous struggles with an eating disorder and how she turned memories of her darkest days into inspiration for a brighter tomorrow.

There’s been a rising trend in recent years of using technology to better understand and optimize the human body. Through these tools we track, tweak, and train not only our wellness but also our ability to perform, and even use these tools as a means to increase our lifespan. We can now do all these things through the lens of the “quantified self”. Today’s guest explains how his company, Hyperice, has taken the tools and technologies used by the world’s most elite athletes and brought them to the masses to help them “warm up quicker, recover faster, and move better.” Listen in as Jim Huether shares the approach Hyperice uses to continuously develop technology in order to more precisely meet the needs of the human body as we come to better understand how it functions. In particular, he touches on their new HyperSmart ecosystem which pulls activity data from their wearable devices and provides wholly personalized recommendations based on that data.

Today’s guest illustrates what it truly means to embody our relationship with food and defines “healthy eating” in terms that go way beyond calories, macros, and choosing so-called “good” foods. When we’re in tune with what we’re eating, food allows us to connect to ourselves, to other people, and to the world on a visceral and emotional level. Listen in as Kara Campbell shares how she came to embrace the connective power of food at an early age, just from sitting around the table with her family at dinner time every night. She explains how this evolved into the idea that dining with others and asking intentional questions leads to friends and strangers alike mirroring pieces of themselves back to one another through conversation. She then unpacks the topic of intuitive eating and why most people fail to reconnect to their bodies and simply trust that they know what they need. Kara then talks about how her upbringing within purity culture had a profoundly negative impact on her relationship with food and why women growing up in such an environment almost always have body image issues and destructive eating habits. Finally, Kara touches on why our body is our wisest teacher and the surprising benefits beyond the physical that one experiences once they are able to repair their relationship with food. Kara Elise Campbell is an embodiment coach who teaches women how to connect with their bodies and come back home to themselves.   Follow Kara @bykaraelise Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Save 15% on the 100% grass-fed and grass-finished beef sticks from Paleovalley with code EVERFORWARD at https://www.paleovalley.com/everforward Learn more at https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/480 

What makes a good coach? How do you know how to pick the right one? What if you view success differently when it comes to your personal health and fitness? Coaches Alyssa and Christy are both very good at what they do and how they help their clients reach their goals but how they go about doing so is drastically different. Does that make one right and one wrong? In this episode, Chase mediates between the two online coaches using input from real, live human beings that are interested in coaching (some for a repeat experience) but have reservations about what will be expected of them, what the work will look like, and what goals are realistic based on their individual needs and unique backgrounds and lifestyles.  If you have ever wondered how to go about picking the right coach for your wellness goals then tune in and take notes!   Follow Alyssa @lysababe1 Follow Christy @christymaecampbell Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Get your free variety sample pack of Recharge by LMNT at https://www.drinklmnt.com/everforward Learn more at https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/479 

Savannah Lynx is a singer/songwriter and fitness model. In this conversation, she discusses how she successfully made the leap from the world of pageantry into music and entertainment. Savannah reflects on how singing and performance had always been her calling. She hearkens back to her college days at Fordham, remembering that “without music as the centerpoint of my life, I really lost it. I wasn’t engaged in class. I wasn’t excited. I wasn’t working out. It was the keystone that put my life together and made me realize who I was and who I wanted to be.” At the age of 21, she was inspired—to her parents’ disappointment—to put her college education on hold, fly from New York to L.A., and pursue her music career seriously. Along the way, her ever-present passion for fitness helped her win the coveted titles of Miss Las Vegas International Model Search and Miss Swimsuit USA International. Listen in as Savannah dives deep into her mindset toward success in both her career and life as a whole. Aside from sharing what she loves about both listening to and making music, she also talks health, nutrition, and setting fitness goals not just for the sake of aesthetics, but for energy and longevity.   Follow Savannah @savannahlynx Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Save 20% on The Good face serum from Caldera Lab with code EVERFORWARD at https://calderalab.com/everforward  Learn more at https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/478

Barton Scott is a chemical engineer and nutritionist. In 2025, he founded Upgraded Formulas, a company offering a line of supplements “that are 100% bioavailable and are absorbed better by the body than any other brand on the market today.” Our bodies, Barton claims, only “absorb about 25% or less” of most supplements on the market.   This fact, he says, is less telling of what is and isn’t in most of today’s supplements and more of a reflection of how inefficient our bodies are at absorbing the nutrients in them.   In fact, this inefficiency is only going to get worse for many as certain trends of modern living continue to wreak havoc on their gut health. From bad diets to excess drinking to living stressful lives, a variety of factors that too many people today are familiar with contribute to gut dysfunction.   “Because of that,” continues Barton, “I knew that trying to heal the gut was not going to be enough.”   Listen in as Barton reflects on the personal experiences which would lead to the founding of Upgraded Formulas. He also shares some hard-to-swallow pills regarding mineral deficiency and what we all need to focus on to fill common nutrient gaps.   Follow Barton @askbarton Follow Upgraded Formulas @upgradedformulas Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Get your free LMNT Recharge electrolyte drink mix variety sample pack at https://www.drinklmnt.com/everforward  Learn more at https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/471

Harvey Martin and Matt Arends of the MindStrong Project speak on the modalities used at the MindStrong Project, particularly heat and cold therapy, as tools that “bring you back to yourself faster”, that help anybody recover and reach a refreshed state of consciousness in the most natural way possible. Their work, ultimately, is around helping a person, through their own physiology, take control. The MindStrong Project believes in “respecting the animal” in our humanity while exercising the power that puts us at the top of the food chain, namely “advancing our cognition”. As Harvey and Matt explain, advancing our cognition tends to be prioritized at the expense of respecting the animal. Their team uses the modalities that they do in response to the environmental stressors of the modern world in an effort to prepare and allow the body to recover from those stressors. The MindStrong Project was founded in 2017 to shape the world of human performance by improving the physical, mental, and emotional capacities of top performers through tried-and-tested natural breath, movement, and mindset protocols. Their team of five combines foundational nature-based training with industry leading strength, movement, conditioning, and nutrition programs.   Follow MindStrong @themindstrongproject Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Get the new watermelon flavor Recharge electrolyte drink mix by LMNT at https://www.drinklmnt.com  Learn more at https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/466  MindStrong Project

The secret to mindfulness, according to Yedda Stancil, is understanding that “beliefs are not who we are.” She stresses the importance of self-awareness to be able to catch the thoughts that feed into our belief system, because our truths define neither us nor the people around us. Chase and Yedda look back on the evolution of their respective careers. They reflect on the various opportunities they’ve faced and the many challenges to their beliefs over time, and how these experiences gradually shaped their purpose and their truth—what Yedda calls “the awakening of my narrative.” Yedda goes on to share how she works with clients looking to experience change by helping them bring to the surface those things that are already inside them—to help them realize that they are enough. Yedda Stancil is a consciousness coach and highly sought-after consultant for both individuals and organizations. She is the founder of Fantastically Fit!

Sam Visnic believes staying on the cutting edge is the key to FASTER results. Learning new techniques, research, & integrating the best approaches to both clinical massage therapy and movement re-education are essential to understanding pain. Sam is the founder of Release Muscle Therapy, where he provides pain relief through clinical massage and movement. He is also the owner of the Visnic Center For Integrated Health, whose focus is “on assisting clients with achieving the highest levels of health and vitality through an integrated approach.” Sam began his career as a personal trainer at 19 during the fitness boom of the 1980s. He quickly found his niche in corrective exercise and decided to become a massage therapist subspecializing in neuromuscular therapist. He describes the trajectory of his career and his expertise in his field as ever-evolving as knowledge about the human body expands over time. He quips, “What happens is, the more you learn in this field, the more challenging your clients get.” Sam explains how his approach progressed in the past two decades, from an initial perspective that was purely mechanistic in its view of the body to one that is entirely holistic—known as the Biopsychosocial model of pain assessment and treatment. His open-mindedness and relentless drive to learn as much as he can earned Sam the reputation of being the go-to guy for difficult cases among his peers. Listen in as Sam shares why developing the ability to build rapport with clients can be a game-changer for anyone in his field, why hypnotherapy is “the next thing”, how your brain controls how you feel pain independent from what’s actually happening to your body, and how to rewire your mind to dismantle unproductive beliefs.   Follow Sam @releasemuscletherapy Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Learn more at https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/463  Get 20% off your first purchase of Legion Athletics at https://bit.ly/2LmdpUr  Learn more about Sam at https://releasemuscletherapy.com

How do we not just train harder, but also maximize everything around it including the mind, body, and soul? This is the question that drives Jeff Byers, a former NFL player and the current CEO of Amp Human, which offers innovative products that help athletes push the limits on their performance, adaptation, and recovery. With an interest in both sports and entrepreneurship from an early age, Jeff always harbored an interest in finding creative ways to push his boundaries for growth as a human. “I was always thinking about the little things I could do to get better,” he says. “I tried to use my brain to work smarter than always just work harder.” After retiring from the NFL, Jeff worked for a few years in the finance space before joining an early-stage biotech startup in late 2015. This company had discovered a way to deliver pharmaceuticals through the skin, bypassing the GI system which often limits the body’s ability to optimally absorb vitamins and minerals taken orally. Not long after joining the company, Jeff and one of his partners developed a broad vision for a business offering products specifically formulated to optimize human performance, a space in which they saw, at the time, a huge gap in the market. Listen in as Jeff talks all things human performance and optimization and why he refers to it as a “broad spectrum”.

Dr. Casey Means, MD is the Co-Founder and Chief Medical Officer at Levels, a metabolic health company that provides individuals “real-time continuous glucose biofeedback coupled with machine-learning driven insights to inform personalized diet and lifestyle choices.” Glucose, unlike other biomarkers, provides us a closed biofeedback loop which if tracked helps us make better diet and lifestyle choices on the fly. Other biomarkers, such as genetics or cholesterol, do not provide that real-time information which means we cannot track changes around them based on our nutritional and lifestyle choices on a day-to-day basis. “The beauty of glucose,” says Dr. Means, “is that there are tools, right now, that can measure our glucose levels in real-time, at home, with a wearable sensor. Unlike these other variables, we can actually see how this biomarker is changing based on choices that we made five minutes ago.” For several years, glucose monitors have been available as a treatment tool for diabetes. What Levels has done is take this technology to the mass consumer market to be used as a precision nutrition tool.

Adam Lowry is an entrepreneur and one of the four co-founders of Sugarbreak, launched last September 2, 2020 as the first all-natural, complete solution to help reduce sugar consumption and promote healthy blood sugar management. Sugarbreak, which raised $3 million in seed funding, offers pills and tongue strips to reduce sugar cravings. A suite of products backed by science was the goal. The brand itself was built on three pillars: all-natural, proven, and measurability. Sugarbreak’s marquee product is Resist, a dissolvable minty breath strip that blocks your taste buds from tasting anything sweet for about 45 minutes, curbing sugar cravings on the spot. Its key ingredient is gymnema sylvestre which makes sugar taste like “sand on your tongue”. In other words, “it interrupts your ability to enjoy sweets” by “break[ing] that connection between your brain and the reward of sugar.” Its other two products are Stabilize, a pre-meal capsule which helps block carbs and sugars and stabilizes post-meal sugar spikes and crashes, and Reduce, which supports consistently healthy A1c and blood glucose levels. The company was founded to support diabetics and prediabetics through a clinically-tested supplement line that supports healthy blood sugar levels. However, for the consumer who has no medical need to reduce their sugar intake and simply wants to stay healthy, Sugarbreak’s products are “a convenient way of having on-demand willpower”.   Follow Sugarbreak @takeasugarbreak Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Key Highlights What problem is Sugarbreak looking to solve, exactly? Adam explains how, aside from direct consumers, Sugarbreak is also looking to create products that primary care providers and other healthcare professionals can offer to their own patients.

Eliot Marshall is a martial artist, business owner, podcaster, bestselling author, and a self-proclaimed “ex-UFC fighter turned motivational speaker”. Eliot points to change as the defining characteristic of his life and career. He looks at each new day as an opportunity for growth, and believes fully that he is a better man today than he was at any other point, regardless of past successes. In fact, even with a prolific run in MMA behind him, Eliot admits that “my UFC career was literally just me trying to hide all these insecurities I have.” Today, instead of running away from the coward within, Eliot embraces that side. He made it a point to learn all about his fear, and to coexist with that fear. He goes on to speak about how love from those he cared about the most yanked him out of the literal death spiral of negative self-talk that enslaved him early on. Eliot explains how anybody can reverse engineer their ideal life in order to start taking steps toward it. This includes going through the three Is that you need to write down to start calibrating your mindset for growth: your I ams, your I cans, and your I wills.   Follow Eliot @firemarshall205 Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Key Highlights Eliot explains how and why he used his career as a professional fighter to hide the coward inside of him.

Ashley Stahl is a counterterrorism professional turned highly sought-after career coach, TEDx speaker, Forbes blogger, podcaster, and author. In January 2021, she published her first book, You Turn: Get Unstuck, Discover Your Direction, and Design Your Dream Career. She illustrates her approach to getting “unstuck” as traveling from one lilypad to another. The first lilypad is where most people start out: They have a dream (or at least the outline of one) but are too afraid to take the next step thanks to the myriad of what-ifs plaguing their mind. Getting over to the second lilypad is all about creating a “river channel” by figuring out your unique gift and learning how to harness your primary skillset. It’s about acknowledging that the key to getting unstuck in your career is to not do what you love, but to do what you are. The third and final lilypad is “a level of dharma” achieved only after consistently putting that skillset into action. Ashley explains that “when you’re vibing in the current of your gifts, what happens is, on the periphery, people start noticing where you’re talented.” When you work only where you thrive, and you own your unique gift, opportunities naturally arise and your career creates itself. Ashley goes on to share how to get clarity on your best career fit, uncovering your identity, nipping resentment at work in the bud and finding your purpose, and the biggest myths that keep you stuck in your career.   Key Highlights Ashley explains how to get unstuck in life by hopping from the first lilypad to the second and to the third. She addresses the many challenges that everyone will encounter on their personal journey along the way. What did Ashley carry over from her previous career in intelligence into her current work as a coach? Ashley gives her thoughts on identity and why the search for who you truly are can be freeing or limiting depending on how you approach it.

Dr. Anthony Balduzzi is a naturopathic doctor, national champion bodybuilder, and founder of the Fit Father Project and Fit Mother Project—online health and fitness communities aimed at empowering busy parents to get healthy, lose weight, and build muscle through practical nutrition and exercise plans. Seeing his father suffer through sickness and pass away at the age of 42 imprinted in young Anthony’s mind that life is both finite and fragile. Being faced with mortality so early on, no less through a parent, catapulted him into the world of health and fitness. He realized, as he went down this path, that it all comes down to “how we manage our nutrition, our sleep, our movement, and our mindset.” The tragic, early experience of losing his dad planted a seed within Anthony to help others like his father who were “just busy and caught in the throes of managing everything” at the expense of their healthy routines. “Health,” he continues, “is often put on the backburner when we have bills and responsibilities, and I saw that happening to so many people.” To this end, Dr. Balduzzi created the Fit Father Project alongside the Fit Mother Project, programs that simplify—and make sustainable—exercise and nutrition for everyday busy parents.   Follow Dr. Balduzzi @fitfatherproject Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Key Highlights Dr. Balduzzi’s father passed away at the young age of 42. He explains how this tragic period of his life served as the catalyst that began his journey into the world of health and wellness.

May joins Chase to discuss ways to become more intentional with your time and find ways as a couple to stay on track with your physical health and wellness goals. One of the many challenges 2020 presented was very limited access to gyms and other fitness resources, especially for folks based in Los Angeles like Chase and May. It was a huge hurdle that made it harder not only to get regular workouts in, but also to stay motivated to maintain healthy eating habits. With their local F45 having opened back up recently, there’s finally been some semblance of normalcy in the couple’s routine. And while F45’s high-intensity, circuit-based workouts aren’t exactly Chase’s cup of tea, the two agreed to make it a part of his routine alongside hers while waiting for other gyms to reopen. This way, each partner became accountable to each other to keep up the new shared routine. Another new relationship hack that they embraced is sharing their calendar. “It just helps so much with planning life,” says Chase. “You’re more mindful of your partner, too.” And, adds May, it incentivizes either partner to make their daily priorities work around pre-existing tasks for the day. Chase and May address other common obstacles that get in the way of a couple’s health goals, especially amid lockdowns, including how to keep each other’s eating habits in check and how to incorporate fitness into a family activity. The common thread running through it all is intentionality, discipline, and making sure that both partners are on the same page as they find better ways to navigate the many challenges and uncertainties presented by the new normal.   Follow May on Instagram @mayyazdi Follow Chase on Instagram @chase_chewning   Key Highlights The importance of setting a routine for your physical health now, even if conditions aren’t ideal How sharing a calendar with your partner makes daily life easier to navigate in every way What you can do if your partner isn’t into fitness How couples can keep each other’s eating habits in check Finding healthy substitutions for your guilty pleasures Taking intentional breaks How a time log will help you fill massive time sinks throughout your day   Episode resources: Save 15% on the 100% grass fed beef sticks from Paleovalley with code EVERFORWARD at https://www.paleovalley.com/everforward Listen to the May's Anatomy podcast at https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/mays-anatomy-with-may-yazdi/id1493134937 

Liz Carlile is a TEDx speaker and host of the Top 50 Parenting and Spirituality podcast Motherhood Unstressed. Liz highlights the importance and necessity of family, and how to grow and nurture your relationship with your partner and children. At the same time she gives advice on how not to overlook yourself when trying to be there for your loved ones. The seed to her brand, Motherhood Unstressed, was planted right after her first son was born in 2012. In that particular moment for Liz, the beautiful promise of motherhood was overshadowed by the intense discomfort, the stress, and the feelings of doubt that plagued her throughout the process. Liz recalls that “something was amiss” in that moment, and yet she decided she would not “stay in that spot”. She knew that it was no one else’s job—not even her husband’s—to lift her up. It was ultimately hers and hers alone. That was the catalyst behind her mission to promote self-love for mothers everywhere. Listen in as Liz shares how it is possible for a mother to dedicate time to and nurture a deep relationship with their loved ones while chasing dreams outside of family. Along the way, she offers advice on combating stress and creating self-care rituals.   Follow Liz @motherhood unstressed Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Key Highlights How is Liz able to dedicate so much time being present as a mother while hosting a weekly podcast and managing her brand? What can you do to make sure you’re not upsetting the dynamic between yourself, your partner, and your kids—and making sure you yourself don’t stress out—while chasing dreams beyond family? Why self-care is not selfish.

Natascha Bessez is an international recording artist, model, spokesperson, and former beauty queen. While her career has taken her to L.A., Natascha was born and raised in New York, where she was crowned Miss New York Teen USA at 18. She has since performed around the world with some of the biggest names in the music industry, bringing her two Billboard Top 30 dance hits along the way. Her global ambitions paved the way for the opportunity to headline Madrid’s World Pride, place runner-up for Denmark’s Eurovision Song Festival, compete in The Voice in Holland, and, most recently, star in The Bachelor Presents: Listen To Your Heart. Asked how she knew the career she wanted to build for herself, Natascha replies, “I think it’s not something that you know. It’s something that you do.” With music as just one of her many passions, the last thing she wants is to be boxed in and labeled, identified only by what she happens to be most known for. “Performance is what I love the most,” says Natscha. Growing up with a Chilean mother and a father of French descent exposed her to different types of music from the day she was born. That developed her love of opera as a kid. She recalls dressing up, belting out, and dancing her heart out on most of those early days. “I enjoyed being watched. I enjoyed expressing.” This love for performance and expression, along with her natural sanguine personality, led Natascha to all the different creative opportunities that have come her way so far. Through it all, she strives to keep her feet planted firmly on the ground, stay true to herself, and leave a legacy to young girls looking to chart a path on their own terms. "Why would I want to do something that’s not authentic to who I am? In time, you realize what you’re not in order to find out what you are."   Follow Natascha @nataschabessez Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Key Highlights One of the most obvious threads that runs through Natascha’s career is her desire to serve as a role model to girls. She shares the legacy she wants to leave and how she was inspired to do what she does. Natascha explains how she taps into her creative flow.

Greg Anderson is a former Law Enforcement Officer and Special Forces veteran. He caught the public eye with a viral Instagram video he posted on May 6, 2020, in which he, in full uniform, challenged the constitutionality of enforcing strict stay-at-home orders. Greg was promptly terminated. His video went on to garner millions of views and counting. Asked how the video was received, Greg says that “95% of people were supportive. Tons of police officers, too.” He even got a message from a sergeant who told him that he played the video during roll call. “It’s crazy,” continues Greg, “how eight minutes changed the entire trajectory of my life—defined my life, really.” A year following the incident, Greg says that the experience freed him from a career that, while he was thankful for, never really felt passionate about. He felt law enforcement was “a kind of natural progression” after his time in the military, and he ended up giving the profession a good eight-year run. “But it was never me. So, this forced me to step outside of that and focus on some things that I’m passionate about.” Today, Greg dedicates most of his time to his Jiu-Jitsu academy and CrossFit gym, Electric North Jiu Jitsu, which he founded back in 2015. With Chase’s help, through Operation Podcast, Greg also recently launched his own podcast, Endless Endeavor.   Follow Greg @greganderson33 Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Key Highlights Greg reflects on the past year following the release of his viral video message.

“I've always been curious about hacking the game of life. I think it's a game. It's a game with highest stakes” Today, Chase interviews David Wood, a High-Performance Coach and the Founder of Focus.ceo, a company that aims at helping business owners double their revenue by focusing on less. Listen in as David offers strategies and tips on getting super-focused with your work and life. Also, learn how you can overcome the shiny object syndrome and actually get twice as much done of what you care about! David opens up about the severe life challenges he had in life and how he is still working on overcoming them. It all dates back to when he was seven years old. He lost his younger sister in a traffic accident, watched it happen. It wasn't until he was 23 that he actually began to realize how the incident had traumatized him in unknowing ways. That was when he sought the help of a psychologist.  Recollecting the whole experience of healing, he says, "I went through a whole series of learning how to cry, learning how to communicate, learning how to speak. And I think as I got back in touch with my emotions, I think that one has me so lit up and excited to help other people go into emotional vulnerability. Some of the leadership qualities like revealing and taking emotional risks." David shares the silent symptoms of depression he had realized he was showing all the while. He says, "My body clenches up and gets really tight, probably because of emotional stuff that still isn't handled." Two compelling avenues that you can try are stillness and movement. It worked for him and would probably do so for you too! Going ahead, David shares his love for helping people reinvent and change their lives for the better. That's where the whole idea of focus.ceo and coaching, came from for him. David has talked about his nine-point-plan for the samurai program, which he uses to help double people's income and time off over 12 months.   Follow David @_focusceo Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Key Highlights Whenever you see someone who seems successful, you generally assume they’ve had everything in their favor.

“I want to see more people come from the action of using love. And again, that's from being proactive. That's finding solutions. That is, you know, listening to people, seeing them, and letting them be heard.” In this episode, Chase speaks with Ruben Rojas, a Los Angeles-born artist and muralist, about his clothing line and print collection, Live Through Love, his art, and all things love. His mission is to ignite creativity and inspire others to see the world through the lens of love. Ruben is also the author of the book of the same name- Live Through Love. In this conversation today, Ruben walks us through his journey in life so far, talks about the switches he made in his career, and how he finally decided to start with his current business. He shares that art had always been a significant part of his life- he enjoyed doodling and painting back during his school days. While at college, one of his friends suggested he try real estate investment, and he went on for it. But the business took him to the extent of bankruptcy, and he put an end to it.  Later, he tried his hands on investment and retirement services. That, too, did not go as expected. It took years of testing and switching careers to finally get him to start with what he has always been passionate about- art and the idea of love. In his own words, "I would say it wasn't that clear. It was like, the I never is running through quicksand. So at first, it was really, can I do this? What does this look like? Can I sustain myself? Can I build a life off of this?" The benefit Ruben says he's had in everything is he has always been self-employed. So whether it was as a personal trainer or as someone making sales commissions or in real estate, everything was still on him. He has never had a salary and never had to worry about just being comfortable in that space. Ruben's decision to take on mural gigs and mural projects happened because he wanted to know if he could make money out of that. He wanted to know if that could help him create a business and sustain something while he continued to build. A valuable takeaway is Ruben's advice on treating yourself with kindness, whether or not your choice in career gives you the anticipated success. "Maybe that wasn't your thing at the moment. And it's just another step to that next thing that actually gets you to where you need to go."  Follow Ruben @rubenrojas Follow Chase @chase_chewning Key Highlights Ruben shares his backstory with us- trying and pursuing different professions before venturing into his dream business. Holding on to something that keeps you from greatness, opportunity, and believing in yourself is worthless. When you're on a service, the return is the validation and the acknowledgment you get from them. Living a life ever forward, to Ruben, means taking responsibility for your decisions and actions. If we take responsibility for our actions, no one can let us down.  Knowing without doing is the same thing as not knowing. Ruben shares his thoughts on what love is and what it is not. Love is free of judgment.  Episode resources: Get your FREE variety sample pack of LMNT Recharge at https://www.drinklmnt.com/everforward  Ruben Rojas Shop Live Through Love Book by Ruben Rojas  

"Humans are creators. But I think we’ve lost touch with the divine creativity that exists inside of each and every one of us because we’ve forgotten somehow that we are part of a larger story." Katelyn Dowling, Ph.D., is the Founder and CEO of Sustainable Self, Inc., which offers coaching and consulting services broadly within the sustainability space. She is also a sought-after speaker who covers a variety of topics from imagination and creativity to the secret superpower of your heart’s electromagnetic field. Chase and Dr. Dowling discuss his personal experience undergoing The Quantum Clinic, a service offered at Sustainable Self which uses the experimental scalar energy device, the RASHA, to soften the veil between one’s conscious and unconscious world. The goal of the session is to usher a person into a state of oneness, gather unique insights about themselves, and heal—all in ways that can only be achieved upon surrendering to their body’s innate wisdom. On a macro level, Dr. Dowling calls for humanity to “return to indiginous ways of knowing, being, and relating to oneself and one’s environment.” With the planet collapsing ecologically, she believes that if more people were capable of tapping into those other centers of wisdom within their subconscious, they become more aware and, therefore, more capable of addressing urgent issues around sustainability. In fact, it was only as recently as last year, in the wake of the pandemic, when Dr. Dowling realized how serious the state of our planet truly is. She was compelled to widen the scope of her profession to encourage the “massive consciousness revolution” that is already taking place around the world. “My personal mission,” says Dr. Dowling, “and the reason I started Sustainable Self, is to create greater harmony with human, natural, and technological systems. [...] How do we use things like artificial intelligence and data analytics to actually make real changes in the world—not just to develop insights, but to bring about healing?”   Key Highlights Dr. Dowling describes her service offering at Sustainable Self, The Quantum Clinic, and its experimental scalar energy device, the RASHA, which allows its users to access a deep state of regeneration and self-healing. As a species, we urgently need to make the switch from an egocentric way of life to one that’s more ecocentric. Dr. Dowling explains how her work ultimately aims to make more people responsible stewards of the environment. Dr. Dowling shares her goal of amplifying the “massive consciousness revolution” that is currently underway. How do we embrace this mindset of energetic consciousness and apply it to self-healing and self-improvement?   Follow Dr. Dowling @drkatedowling Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Save 10% on your purchase of reishi hot cacao from Four Sigmatic with checkout code EVERFORWARD at https://bit.ly/3eXekUL Learn more about Dr. Dowling's work and the Quantum Clinic at https://www.sustainableselfinc.com

During his visits, he built valuable relationships while attending conferences and visiting research facilities and mushroom farms around the country. Aside from his work at Nammex, Jeff, along with his son Skye, offer a product line of high-grade mushroom supplements at Real Mushrooms. To Jeff, mushrooms are a forgotten food, or what he calls “the missing dietary link” for many in the West. He encourages everyone to include mushrooms in their diet, in whole or supplement form, to experience their often-overlooked holistic health benefits.   Follow @chase_chewning   Key Highlights What should we be looking for in mushrooms or mushroom-derived products when looking to supplement our diet?

Dr. Kleiner is the owner of High Performance Nutrition®, LLC, a consulting firm in Mercer Island, Washington. She is the Director of Science & Communication for Vitargo, Inc., and the High Performance Nutritionist for Seattle Storm. Dr. Kleiner is the author of eight books, including THE NEW POWER EATING®, The Good Mood Diet®, and POWERFOOD Nutrition.   She has a PhD in Nutrition and Human Performance and is a registered dietician, certified nutrition specialist, Co-Founder and Fellow of the International Society of Sports Nutrition, and a Fellow at the American College of Nutrition, where she received a Young Investigator Award for her research. She has been a member of the National Strength and Conditioning Association and the American College of Sports Medicine for decades.   “What I do is help people achieve peak performance from the locker room to the boardroom to the bedroom.” Dr. Kleiner’s world is nutrition and human performance and believes that appearance or body composition should be an athlete’s secondary priority. In fact, she focuses on body composition insofar as it contributes to performance.   “Translating the science of nutrition into food is the particular skill of a good dietician,” says Dr. Kleiner. To this end, she has always taught her clients about food from the get-go so that they think about their daily food intake in terms of the food itself rather than simply counting macros and calories. She is an advocate of what she calls “power eating”, or eating more instead of restricting yourself in order to gain greater energy, train harder, and, if part of your goal, lose fat.   Whether you are an elite athlete or someone who just wants to increase performance in mind and body, listen in as Dr. Kleiner shares her philosophies and ideas around nutrition that can help you reach your fitness goals without having to worry about your diet.   Key Highlights What is performance training and nutrition for performance training? What are some of the biggest mistakes athletes make when training for performance that they are making in their nutrition? When it comes to training for performance, should the focus be on maximizing carbohydrate intake or caloric intake? And how does nutrient timing factor into nutrition for performance training? How do you go through a cut or weight/fat loss regime while maintaining your mood? How can we navigate a world obsessed with body image and generally misinformed when it comes to healthy eating?   Episode resources: Get your free LMNT Recharge sample pack at https://www.drinklmnt.com/everforward  Get The New Power Eating book Learn more about Dr. Susan Kleiner

Hollan Hawaii is a cordon bleu trained chef, health advocate, former restaurant owner, and mom of three. A native of the San Francisco Bay Area, Hollan studied at Le Cordon Bleu before settling in Kauai, Hawaii where she ran the vegan restaurant Caffe Coco until the end of 2017. Today, Hollan writes on all things health and wellness. She recently published the vegan cookbook Good Food Gratitude.   The journey toward the vegan lifestyle and stellar health overall wasn’t an easy trek for Hollan. Over a decade ago, just shy of her 30th birthday, she was diagnosed with gestational diabetes and was warned that she had a 60% chance of developing type 2 diabetes within the next several years. Holland was also overweight and struggled with endometriosis and kidney stones. Determined to reclaim agency over her young life, Hollan changed her diet, lasting a whole day as a vegetarian before committing wholeheartedly to veganism. The results were immediate.   "What I started to realize really quickly was that you can control your health—or at least your body’s health—through food. I literally felt like I could turn disease on and off with what I was eating."   One of Hollan’s biggest revelations is that you can “turn disease on and off” depending on what you eat. After going vegan and discovering that her body functions best by adapting to different “seasons of nutrition”, Hollan felt liberated knowing that she was in control of both her physical and mental wellbeing.   While she is an advocate for the transformational benefits of the vegan lifestyle, Holland encourages everyone to find the nutrition protocol that works for them. Our bodies don’t need a lot. We just need to give it a little change so our brain can catch up and have some of those ah-hahs.   Follow Hollan @hollanhawaii Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Key Highlights After going vegan, Hollan realized that she could “turn disease on and off” through her food choices. She explains exactly how she made these choices and how they affected both her physical and mental health. Hollan explains the benefits of listening to your body and adapting to its different “seasons of nutrition”. A support community and mentorship are foundational to staying on a healthy path. Watch for these telltale signs that the body is responding well—or not—to plant-based foods. Hollan explains her 5-day or 22-day reset protocols.

Nick Shaw is the Founder and CEO of Renaissance Periodization, former competitive powerlifter and bodybuilder, and coach to world-class athletes such as CrossFit Games Champions, Olympians, UFC fighters, and Navy SEALs. Nick, along with his wife Lori, co-host the RP Strength Podcast.   To many an athlete, or even just the avid gym-goer, the lockdowns presented a ton of challenges to staying in shape. However, both Chase and Nick view these “limitations” from a different perspective. They discuss how having no choice but to be creative with their workouts has forced their bodies to deload.   “We always think that more is better,” says Nick, referring to his fellow athletes. “It’s short-term thinking.”   A deload allows the body to “catch up” after a build-up of fatigue throughout an intense period of training. Coupled with periodization—well-rounded, systematized training to maximize productivity—more experienced athletes with specific fitness goals will be able to avoid burnout, let their body rest and recover, and maintain their motivation to hit the gym.   "Eat enough, sleep enough. Do those two things and your recovery is probably going to be pretty good."   Listen in as Chase and Nick go on to discuss best practices for growing as an athlete, with particular emphasis on the often-underestimated factors of nutrition, rest, and, most especially, doing the small monotonous things every day. In Nick’s own words: “Little, gradual improvements over time is the success secret of consistently successful people.”   Follow Nick @nick.shaw.rp Follow Chase @chase_chewning     Key Highlights Nick talks about how he adapted his workouts to the limitations (i.e. lack of access to a gym) imposed by the pandemic. Most people aren’t aware of the physiological benefits of a deload - Nick explains why more isn’t necessarily better Nick defines periodization and explains its importance in a proper training protocol. A training program should obviously be tailored to your particular goals and level of fitness and be ever-evolving as you progress. Nick shares the elements of an effective routine and how to break through plateaus. Recovery is underrated.

"We’re energetic beings, and if you are not paying attention to your energetic body, and just paying attention to your physical body, there will be illness." Dr. Saman Faramarzi is a naturopathic doctor and Founder of SAFA Life and Wellness. The name of her concierge business doubles as both a portmanteau of her own name, as well as depicting the Farsi word safa, meaning “joy”. Joy, says Dr. Sam, is key to her role as a practitioner of self-healing. “My responsibility is to meet my patients where they’re at,” says Dr. Sam. “So, my job is to open the door—create that space to go deeper.” Within the first 15 minutes of a consultation, she asks her patients to share their goals (interestingly, most of her patients wish to “feel lighter”). Many are ready to express themselves openly from the get-go, while others need a little more encouragement to open up. Regardless, for each and every patient, continues Dr. Sam, “we start with the deeper human being questions before we get into the physical symptoms. Then we start the healing.” A human being is an energetic being. Chase and Dr. Sam go on to share their respective personal experiences dealing with the repression of trauma, and how they have suffered emotionally in the past as a result. One may look physically perfect on the outside, but be deteriorating on the “inside” to the point of experiencing actual outward symptoms. In Chase’s case, those symptoms included panic attacks and, in some cases, blackouts. Dr. Sam describes her process for helping patients unveil the source of grief and begin the process of healing by tapping into their chakra—the energetic level of being. Dr. Sam encourages all of her patients to commit to the process of healing—of growth—just as she is committed to their journeys. Commitment, she says, makes you immune to obstacles of all sizes and opens your eyes to every opportunity that brings you a step closer to achieving your goals. “All the power is in the patient,” says Dr. Sam. “I’m only here to give you this information, help you, and work through the obstacles; but it’s your commitment to you.” Follow Dr. Sam @dr.sam.nd Follow Chase @chase_chewning Key Highlights Dr. Sam shares what drew her to naturopathic medicine and self-healing as a preventive health measure. What do you need to know if you’re thinking of pursuing an M.D. in Naturopathy and what can you expect at naturopathic medical school? A large part of naturopathy is uncovering deep-rooted issues behind surface-level symptoms. Dr. Sam explains how she helps her patients discover those issues. Dr. Sam describes, medically, how to tap into your chakra. She also explains how grief affects a person from a biochemical and physiological perspective. Knowing your why and commitment to yourself are the two biggest steps to eliminating chronic illness in the long-term. Dr. Sam takes us on a tour of her place of work, the social wellness club Remedy Place.

Do you know how to be yourself? Have you taken the time to sit with yourself, learn who you are, and what you want out of life? Often times we delay our potential and our ability to step into our greatness because we are fighting our most natural identity, or even continue living in a confused state.

She teaches three main concepts on the path to significant growth; how to deal, how to heal, and how to thrive.

A jump from the field of audio to health, nutrition, and fitness, wouldn't land perfectly when taken overnight. How then did Abel James, the man of the show today, get his mind and body dedicated to teaching and practising good health and nutrition? Join Chase on this episode of the Ever Forward Radio as he interviews Abel ‘Fat-Burning Man’ James, who is a number one best-selling author, a top-10 app developer, musician, radio talk show host, celebrity coach and entrepreneur. He is also the host of the podcast, ‘The Fat-Burning Man Show’, which is at the top of the charts in many countries around the world.   In the era of exhaustive diets and fitness regimes, listening and understanding what your body really needs can be difficult but not impossible. We need to get rid of the things we do not use and focus on that which needs to be prioritized.   "I need to keto harder" or "I need to diet harder" are only rants to trick or force yourself into doing things to please others.   This is where being like a kid can help. Children enjoy doing things and do it for the fun of the process and learning through it. What's more, they are invisibly rewarded for it later on in their lives. Something which doesn't give you immediate rewards, could have something better in store for your future.   Practise healthy eating. Cutting out completely on the carbs or the proteins could just not go well with your body. Abel stresses the need to replace the term "fruits and vegetables" with "vegetables and fruits". Do you see why he does that? You need to reverse the priority you give to the two!   Focus your energy in the right direction and invest in those that are good for you.       Tune in to the complete episode for some amazing tips on healthy eating, exercise and living a life you love!   Follow Abel @fatburningman Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Key Highlights Abel talks about his life with music and why audio engineering is also a tough grip to hold on to.

The woos and wows of Metabolic Flexibility are no longer a secret! Join Chase on this episode of the Ever Forward Radio as he interviews former research biochemist and two-times New York times best-selling author of The Paleo Solution and Wired to Eat, Robb Wolf. He is also the host of the Healthy Rebellion Radio, a weekly show featuring listener Q and A on all things diet and health, and serves on the board of Directors/Advisors for Specialty Health Inc, The Chickasaw Nation’s “Unconquered Life” initiative and a number of innovative start ups with a focus on health and sustainability. Robb simplifies anybody's understanding of fitness and health by discussing everything from individual body responses to quantity of carbs taken to a lot of other essentials like maintaining electrolyte balance in the body and having sound sleep. Tune in for you to also get a peek into Robb's personal life and learn from him his extensive understanding of health and fitness! Rob broke the dogma around KETO diets and dove deeper into individual metabolic flexibilities, catering to people’s nutrition needs suitably. Apparently Robbs wife has great metabolic flexibility and he understands from her how different it could be for every person as he says his physical self 'sucks' at the same. The fact that some of us are over-doing our fitness practices is also something to take a look at. There's a lot that needs to be thought of other than the social media pleasing and planning! Listen in as the duo also discuss rehydration, recovery and the function of different electrolytes in the body. You'd be surprised to know that you are totally unlikely to die because of consuming less amount of water and the fact that over-consuming the same could have a disastrous impact on your body. Also, sodium is one constituent you undervalue and demonize. Why? Because over-consumption of sodium could perhaps spare you from life threatening illnesses. But when the same is done with Potassium, another bodily electrolyte, the implications are costlier than you can imagine! Rob also has a thing with reading and researching topics other than health and nutrition, like economics and physics. It helps him increase the quality of living and growing as a person. And it would sure help you widen your knowledge levels and perhaps give you some time off of your routine work habits! To conclude, what this episode translates to is simple- metabolic flexibility is real and it’s high time you break the myths around the ‘perfect’ diet because a happy you is a healthy you!   Follow Robb @dasrobbwolf Follow Chase @chase_chewning     Key Highlights Learn about the 7-day carb test Robb practises with his clients and how it's helped break the dogma around KETO diets for everybody into it. Metabolic Flexibility is laudable and cool. Your sleep could actually improve if you understand that better. Hydration is water+ sodium and not just water. Lowering sodium consumption does not reduce hypertension though the opposite is true. Also know the importance of another major electrolyte- Mg. Around 650 of your body processes revolve around it! For children and adults aged 20-25, declining sleep could mean recovering less everyday. Sleep helps you recover and detox. Past 30, your metabolism takes a predictable trajectory. You need to learn to flatten the curve. Know the diet special drinks at Robb's.

With the humongous growth of technology and our constant need for a better lifestyle, we’ve failed to consider the dangers that lurk behind. You’d be surprised to know that though 5G provides a faster alternative to crawling data services, it is causing a huge exponential increase to your EMF exposure. How do you then adapt to changing times and opt for quality choices?  Our guest today knows just how to tune your choices to suit the best. Join Chase on the episode as he interviews Juraj Kocar, CEO at Somavedic Technologies. Somavedic is his dream project for a functional and broadly accessible frequency therapy device meant to harmonize the negative effects of EMF (electromagnetic radiation from cell phones, wifi's, etc).  If that sounds interesting, know also that Juraj has tips for aiding your hydration with ‘quality’ water. Yes. You get to learn today the two kinds of water- structured and unstructured and how the quality of water you consume can enormously affect your body’s hydration. The strength of the EMF around us is a billion times higher than it was years ago. Equally intimidating is the fact that our heart and the brain are most vulnerable to its dangers. Not just humans, other beings are equally affected- do you know that plants do not grow when kept in an area where WiFi or such radiations are present? If the negative impacts of exposing ourselves to wireless radiation is this big, why do companies continue to scale and expand the levels of these? How do we hook ourselves out of the negative catch of technology and how can we create a healthier alternative to those? Tune in for an insightful conversation and get yourself matchless words of wisdom from the wonderful entrepreneur guest. In a nutshell, this episode would help you make better choices for a healthier living!   Follow Somavedic @somavedic_international Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Key Highlights 5G has not replaced the old 3G/4G. It has another bandwidth and operates at higher frequencies. This also means it needs more towers to operate- increasing our exposure to radiations! Know what wireless transmission has done to our water bodies. Apart from affecting our hearts and brains, these radiations also cause tiredness, lower our immunity and cause fertility loss in men.

In this episode of Ever Forward Radio, Chase speaks with Laura Poburan  on why her role as a mentor in the health and wellness space is more relevant in 2020 than it has ever been. After all, people around the world have been forced to reevaluate their priorities throughout the last several months.   On nutrition coaching clients, Laura says, “They’re looking for something so much deeper now. They’ve been forced to look at their lives in a new way. They’ve been forced to take account of everything in their life that they aren’t happy about—everything in life that they’re using food to cope with. They’re ready for a deeper transformation. They’re ready to change who they are as people; not just continue to chase the same arbitrary goals year after year after year.”   Laura views nutrition coaching as a vehicle to access different parts of her clients’ lives—to show them that nutrition is just one small aspect, but one that they can use as a foundation for more powerful, holistic change. She calls our eating patterns “the vehicle into our subconscious” which allows us to see where we are falling into disempowering patterns where we are covering up, or numbing, the things in our lives that we are not happy with. Oftentimes, we use food to do just that, if only because food is so accessible.   As the saying goes: A man convinced against his will is of the same opinion still. This year has placed limiting beliefs on many, or even reinforced limiting beliefs that they already had going into 2020. As much as nutrition coaches may want to swoop in and impose their own beliefs on their clients, they’ll quickly find that this approach will backfire.   Powerful coaches don’t come in to “fix” their clients. Instead, they look to step back and ask questions that raise their clients’ awareness until they are finally ready to receive their lessons. It is only when what you have to say is meaningful to a person that they will act on it.   Key Highlights Laura shares why “stepping into my zone of genius and creating more space in my life” is her resolution in 2021. 2020 has proven that nutrition coaches need to go beyond their clients’ eating habits and toward their core values as individuals. Laura describes how she utilizes “trigger mapping” to uncover how her clients view the world and therefore know how to help them undergo a transformation around how they view food. The coach-client dynamic has also shifted drastically this past year. Laura shares how she had to adapt to challenges to meet the needs of her clients. Effective coaches drop their ego in order to allow their clients to discover their own issues. The importance of empathy and selfless communication are fleshed out. Laura explains her process for helping coaches define their vision-mission and values and in turn establish an effective approach to guiding their clients to reach their goals. Laura talks about how striving for alignment of the tiniest things is her key to living a life ever forward.   Follow Laura @laurapoburan Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Save 20% off of your first purchase at www.buylegion.com/EVERFORWARD and use checkout code EVERFORWARD for double reward points Listen to Laura's first interview in episode 127: How Our Thoughts Dictate Our Actions The Coaching Conversation Revelation Playbook Text Laura at 587-419-5345   

Today Chase speaks with Chief Special Warfare Operator Thomas Shea, who discusses his new book Three Simple Things: Leading During Chaos. He draws a parallel between success as an author to success in the military—or, really, success in any endeavor. He refers to this common thread as the monotony of “doing a lot of stupid, simple things that nobody else is willing to do” each and every day "The road to success", he says, is “boring”; otherwise, it would not be so elusive to most. Chase and Thom break the lessons of the book down to the five pillars of health, wealth, relationships, learning, and spirituality. A particular emphasis is put on the spiritual only because it is a rare thing to hear someone in the military discuss this often overlooked dimension of life. In fact, he notes that life begins and ends with the spiritual and refers to our very being as our vessel for making anything that we want to happen, happen. Thom also spends a considerable amount of time speaking on the paramount importance of relationships and how everything simply falls apart without them. Your physical health, your ability to learn, and your financial situation will suffer when your relationship with someone close to you such as your spouse is in dire straits. Thom mentions that he would even kick out members of his SEAL team if he found out that their spouse was cheating on them. “They would get us killed,” he says about those SEALS experiencing the mental and emotional pitfalls of a damaged relationship. The theme of the monotony of success continues to run through Thom’s best practices for maximizing your health, wealth, and learning capacities. Progress in these areas requires a commitment from you to do the smallest of action steps every single day; nothing more, nothing less. “If you realize it’s stale,” says Thom, “you’re gonna win.”   Key Highlights Chase and Thom share their thoughts on the “monotony of success” and how anyone can discipline themselves (if they decide to) to endure the day-by-day tasks that will eventually bring their goals to fruition. Thom says that spirituality is “your ability to make ripples across time, space, and distance.” He explains how to use your five senses to activate your spiritual awareness, as well as why he advocates that everyone brush their skin every morning and evening. Thom goes into why the physical, intellectual, and wealth factors of life cannot exist together without relationships. The three ways to learn Learn something new Get better at something that you’ve already learned Let yourself dream - Thom dives deep into these three ways and why he describes dreaming as “strategic learning”. Asked about the final pillar, wealth, Thom goes into how the other four columns play a role into how much (or how little) compensation you receive in the pursuit of what you value. Thom hearkens back to the SEALs’ saying that “the only easy day was yesterday” as he explains how he lives a life ever forward.   Follow Thom @frogmanout Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Get LMNT Recharge sample pack for FREE only when you click here: https://www.drinklmnt.com/everforward  Three Simple Things: Leading During Chaos Thom's previous book Unbreakable: A Navy SEAL's Way of Life  

In this episode of Ever Forward Radio, Chase speaks with Drew Manning on his second iteration of Fit2Fat2Fit. Drew embarked on another Fit2Fat2Fit journey in 2020, nine years after his first run back in 2011. He shares how humbled he was during that first experiment and how it nurtured in him something that motivated him to take on this journey one more time: empathy.   “Empathy is something that is lacking in the fitness industry,” he says. “But this world lacks empathy as well.” With all the divisiveness that took place in 2020, Drew thought the time was ripe to relive Fit2Fat2Fit, not just to shine an inspiring light in the midst of all the chaos this year has brought, but also because there are even more opportunities on social media to get eyes on the project now compared to nine years ago.   "Sometimes, I think it takes something crazy to catch people’s attention and motivate them in a different and unique way that they haven’t ever experienced before."   Drew’s ultimate goal is to bring more empathy to the industry and to society as a whole. He says: “I feel like doing it a second time can really disrupt the industry by showing that it’s more of a mental and emotional journey for people who struggle with weight loss.”   Key Highlights Drew explains how he prepared his family, mentally and emotionally, for his 2020 Fit2Fat2Fit journey, and why this second run is harder than the first. With the intention of making this journey more educational the second time around, Drew decided to regularly track his biomarkers (ex. heart rate, blood sugar, etc.). He goes into the thought process behind his decision. It was obviously much riskier in 2020 for Drew to let himself become as unhealthy as he let himself be. He shares how he set safety precautions for himself amid COVID season. Why did Drew decide on this particular outlandish, risky gesture as his vehicle for disrupting the fitness industry? Drew’s advice for someone who is unhealthy to take their first step in the right direction.

Mindset is essentially who we are. What we think, why we think and how we think define our daily wellbeing. They are of such importance that science and researches are constantly coming up with new information about the way our brain functions. But, what can we do to shift our mindset once we see a negative pattern happening? In which way we can impact and influence our behavior to match the positive life we know we can live? In this episode, Robyn Downs discusses some of the most important actions we can take to start feeling good. “When you feel good you can do the things that really matter in your life and then impact the world.” – Robyn Downs You will also learn about habit changing and the reasons why is easier to change ourselves than to expect different outcomes, how you can set goals for the next year in a more sustainable and attainable way (that actually works), and what are the 3 non-changing brain patterns that we need to be aware of in order to uncomplicate life and instigate success. Our ways of thinking end up being just little pieces that we, as rational individuals, must gather to solve the whole puzzle.   Follow Robyn @realfoodwholelife Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: The Feel Good Effect by Robyn Conley Downs Feel Good Effect Podcast (Apple Podcasts) Feel Good Effect Podcast (Spotify) The ONE Thing by Gary Keller Own the Day, Own Your Life by Aubrey Marcus

2020 year-in-review... relationship style! My wife and I look back at lessons learned over the past twelve months. See, for us, 2020 began as a year with a ton of potential, until about mid-February when practically the whole world came to a grinding halt. Career-wise, we continued to work towards a ton of growth, especially May who finally graduated this year to become a Family Nurse Practitioner. What was highlighted for us above all, though, is how our relationship was tempered by the challenges and uncertainties and came out stronger than ever in spite of it all. Join us as we do a deep dive into the life-changing benefits of what a great support system feels like and why you need to nurture yours today. Listen in as we share how optimism and a willingness to pivot helped us thrive the past year, the power of having a tight network of family and peers to guide us through tough times, and our plea for others to engage with their community more going into 2021.   Follow May @mayyazdi Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Save 15% on the 100% grass-fed beef sticks at www.Paleovalley.com/everforward   Listen to the May's Anatomy podcast

In this episode I had the honor of speaking with Shawn Stevenson, creator and host of The Model Health Show, which was featured as the number one health podcast in the United States with millions of listener downloads each year. With the myriad of challenges we’ve all faced this year thanks to COVID-19, there’s a greater need than ever before to return to the basics of health and wellness, particularly regarding what we eat on a day-to-day basis. We discuss how food affects so many different areas of our lives. Beyond metabolism, food affects our relationships, our ability to communicate, how we perform in our professional environments, and other facets of life that we normally don’t even connect to food. In short, we have a conversation on the most fundamental must-knows that we can use to truly take our health back.   Listen in as Shawn shares how eating the right foods can totally transform your body and mind, why he considers sleep as the most important factor to one’s health (even above nutrition and exercise), common nutrition myths, why you need to pay more attention to your gut health if you want to burn more body fat, why it’s time to cease the “war on fat”, and what most people fail to see when it comes to maximizing your health and wellness amid the COVID-19 pandemic.   Follow Shawn @shawnmodel Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Key Highlights [08:28] Why Shawn decided to write Eat Smarter [17:25] What it means to be “smart” about eating [26:25] Dispelling calorie-related myths and overlooked essential aspects in nutrition [46:57] The importance of microbiome diversity to fat loss [52:20] Best food sources of prebiotics for greater gut health [1:01:52] Food sources to fill in the other elements of a healthy gut [1:13:16] Why we shouldn’t be afraid of eating fat [1:23:50] The extent of the health crisis in today’s world [1:30:31] What the focus should really be on if we want to talk about prevention [1:38:55] How Shawn’s challenging background inspired him to write his new book [1:46:40] How Shawn lives a life EVER FORWARD   Episode resources: Save up to 39% on organic lion's mane ground coffee from Four Sigmatic at www.foursigmatic.com/everforward  Get Eat Smarter Get Sleep Smarter Listen to The Model Health Show podcast Watch this video interview on YouTube https://youtu.be/I_8MApca6eA

Facing problems in life is part of being a human. Finding purpose out of these problems requires much more perspective and attitude. Overcoming obstacles is not always easy but is doable, but what could we possibly think when these obstacles never seem to be over? In this episode, Sam Tooley shares some special and honest stories of his past and how he was able to channel bad experiences into action and transformation. Losing someone we love, dealing with depression or anxiety, not knowing what path to follow… These are all barriers that life throws at us.

You are not the same person as anyone else. So why should your diet or even your approach to healthcare be the same as otehrs? Guest John O'Connor, co-founder of Gene Food, is a successful entrepreneur but even more successful human being because he has tapped into the ability to more completely understand how his unique body operates and how to optimize it to his custom needs, wants, and goals. In this epsiode, John shares the science behind why biological data collection can be both extremely useful but also somewhat dangerous when digging too deep into biohacking, how to truly understand this human experience so as to optimize it, and how science can save us from the vanity culture of health and wellness when it comes to a life of vitality and longevity. Also, tune in to the second half for John's insight into the current state of affairs for the wellness industry, brick-and-mortar as well as e-commerce and the challenges both are facing in 2020.   Follow John and Gene Food @genefood Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Get your free 30-day trial of Audible at www.audibletrial.com/everforward Loonshots by Safi Bahcall https://amzn.to/37Ha2As  Limitless by Jim Kwik https://amzn.to/3kAfCIQ   Learn more about Gene Food GeneFood Podcast Launch, grow, and monetize your podcast through the help of Chase's podcasting courses at www.OperationPodcast.com and save 60% on Level 201 with checkout code EVERFORWARD60

It was exciting and fun, and I learned a lot. Then when I was switching funds and I had to sit out my non-compete clause, I started getting involved in some entrepreneurial stuff and one thing led to another. One of the ideas I had was Forme, and I started to get really excited about it, and it got to the point where it became the only thing I was doing. I moved back to California, which is where I was raised. I spent time in San Francisco, which is where a lot of our engineers are, and in LA, which is where all of our business and content and marketing is based. It’s a super exciting time to now be public with it after four years and I’m excited for consumers to be able to experience what we’ve created."

We provide products that prioritize nutrient density in an industry that prioritizes everything else. We believe that every dietary choice and every added ingredient is a powerful opportunity to love and care for oneself. The story of Paleovalley is a love story. Autumn and Chas Smith, co-founders, met in 2007, fell in love, and married on the magical Sunset Cliffs in San Diego, CA.This year they were blessed with an amazing baby boy, Maverick. Autumn suffered acute digestive issues since she was a teenager and numerous experts failed to offer solutions that worked. Very concerned, Chas took matters into his own hands. His extensive research led him to the paleo diet. Together they implemented its principles for 30 days (eliminated refined foods, shopped at local farmers’ market, ate fresh organic fruits and vegetables, grass fed meats and wild seafood) and by the end, Autumn's IBS was completely resolved. Autumn was so inspired that she quit her job as a personal trainer at the Tracy Anderson Method, and earned a master’s degree in holistic nutrition. Though they originally focused on disseminating information, they soon realized that there simply weren’t many truly healthy food products on the market. Many products claimed and even appeared to be to be healthy, using all the buzzwords such as gluten free, soy free, dairy free, natural and more but they were also nutrient free; free of the minerals, vitamins, and antioxidants that promote thriving health. Realizing that they had an important job to do, Autumn and Chas joined forces with Chas' brother Matt and a good friend, Matthew, and launched Paleovalley with the belief that everything you eat and every added ingredient is an opportunity to either detract from your health or improve it. Their mission is to create products that live up to their own strict standards and always prioritize health over profit. Paleovalley creates products with integrity that are free from problematic ingredients and teeming with ingredients that promote vibrant health. They strive to inspire people to view every dietary choices for what it really is: a profound opportunity to love and care for oneself. Paleovalley products are a labor of love, and their only hope is that they help your family feel as vibrant as theirs. Stay tuned. Eat Well. Live Vibrant.

Identity. One word that we all can relate to and we all, at least at some time, have struggled with or will. Nowadays we all may be finding ourselves wearing a mask in public but perhaps we already were wearing another one.

This very special episode is meant to highlight what is possible when we stop accepting our circumstances as ultimatums. Casey Adams, fellow Virginian, is an incredible example of what is possible when you decide to take your life and your future into your own hands by putting yourself on the path of personal development and saying "Yes!" to opportunities that others may not think twice about. While he was a sophomore in high school something happened that would change the direction of his life forever. He was diagnosed with interspinous ligament damage while playing football and was told that he could have potentially been paralyzed. During this time in his life he was told by the doctors that he would never be able to play football again. This was shocking news because football was his absolute passion. Furthermore, he was told that he had to be in a neck brace for over 10 weeks. All of this negativity came into his life so quickly and he became very depressed and had no idea how to handle the situation. This was the turning point in his life that changed the direction of his future.   Follow Casey @casey Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Ever Forward Radio is made possible by our proud partners!

In today's episode of the show I and my wife, May, RN BSN, discuss one of the pillars of the Institute for Integrative Nutrition's model of healthful living, primary foods. Primary foods, such as physical activity, career, spirituality, and relationships are "foods" that feed our soul and satisfy our hunger for life. There are twelve primary foods that are constantly fluctuating and adjusting as we adjust through the various phases of our lives. These foods include: joy, spirituality, creativity, finances, career, education, health, physical activity, home cooking, home environment, relationships, and social life. As we navigate through our health journey and coach our clients and patients through their own individualized processes, we may notice these concepts ebb and flow, which is not only normal, but healthy! In this episode we hone in on some of the more difficult to grasp concepts: joy, creativity, and home environment and provide examples and methods of ways to activate these practices into our everyday lives. As we continue on this podcast (and our own journeys) we will dig in deeper to this concept of primary food and unveil its importance on our quality of life.    Follow May @mayyazdi  Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Ever Forward Radio is made possible by our proud partners!

Life transitions can be difficult, stressful, and even overwhelming. In my experience, none were more trying than my transition from civilian to soldier back to civilian again. And I am not the only one. Military transition continues to be one of the biggest hardships service members go through - and many have been in combat! There is good news though, there are in fact people and services we can utilize to help guide us through these transitions, people who have done it themselves and have your best interest at heart. As a former Staff Sergeant in the United Sates Army, active duty 2003-2009, I hear my fellow soldiers struggling the same way now, years later, that I did over ten years ago. This must stop. We have the responsibility to connect with them and keep moving forward in life and on to the next mission. True leadership does not start or stop when military service does, true leadership is a lifestyle.   Follow SOM+C @somcoalition Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Ever Forward Radio is made possible by our proud partners!

When they met in college, they had a lot on their plates. Kent trained with the Japanese Olympic Judo team, painted as a muralist for the city of Los Angeles, and competed internationally in Muay Thai. Meanwhile, Ryan trained with the U.S. Paralympic team while holding a 2nd degree black belt in Kendo. With degrees in neuroscience and chemistry and economics, they challenged both their minds as well as their bodies. They set out to live life to the fullest. But in the search for a product that would keep them going, they realized that there wasn't anything that would help them accomplish more in a healthy and effective way. They didn't want to take mysterious supplements or energy drinks when studying, training, or going out. Instead of something sugary and ineffective, they wanted clean, balanced energy... something that could be taken anywhere, anytime. So they launched a campaign for better energy... and they realized it wasn’t just them. In only three days, their first batch was fully crowdfunded and people raved about it - they were even recently endorsed by Joe Rogan and appeared on Shark Tank!   Follow Ryan @ryan.ryc Follow Kent @kentaro Follow Neuro @neurogum Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Ever Forward Radio is made possible by our proud partners!

Sit back and buckle up because this episode is going to blow your mind! Matt Maruca, founder of The Light Diet and Ra Optics, spent years of his early childhood and adulthood chasing wellness only to be stuck spinning his wheels. So he set out to learn how to improve his health at the cellular level in hopes to rebuild his life from the inside out. Matt learned that all modern chronic diseases, including cancer, Alzheimer’s, obesity, diabetes, autism, autoimmune diseases, and even depression are mitochondrial diseases, meaning that certain tissues’ mitochondria are severely damaged in those diseases, and that his issues were mitochondrial, too.   He learned that mitochondria are “electromagnetic” in nature, meaning that how they process our food and make energy is controlled by light.  This explained why diet alone was not enough to actually cure his symptoms.   It further clarified to me how so many people struggle with diet and exercise as their only strategies for health, and why focusing on diet, exercise, and supplements alone to improve health is like focusing only on the gas when trying to fix a car with a broken engine.   He earned that more energetic light frequencies, especially blue light, exert the strongest effect on our body clock, and the less energetic frequencies such as red light have a comparatively minimal effect. He learned that getting UV light from the sun through our eye is critical to creating melatonin, before it can even be secreted in the hours after the sun sets. So, he began going outside in sunlight during the day to make melatonin, and wearing blue light blocking safety goggles at night to allow his melatonin to be secreted and his not looked back since!   Follow Matt @thelightdiet Follow Ra Optics @ra_optics Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Ever Forward Radio is made possible by our proud partners!

According to the National Alliance on Mental Illness, one in five U.S. adults will experience mental illness in their lifetime, and most end up paying more for treatment than they would for physical health conditions. While this is an alarming truth, family Doctor William Sears and neurologist Vincent F. Fortanasce - have positive news: it’s possible to treat and even prevent the onset of mental illness with the right medication or even WITHOUT medication at all, ultimately leading to a better quality of life. In their groundbreaking new book, The Healthy Brain Book, Sears and Fortanasce team up to bring readers an all-ages guide to having a calmer, happier, sharper brain, whether experiencing “normal” mental and emotional burnout or wrestling with diagnosed illness. The good doctors explain that while the brain is a complex organ, the diverse set of mental and emotional challenges we have stem from one cause: imbalance in the brain. Their work will help those struggling to thrive and get their brain back in balance by teaching readers the following: What we think can change how well we think The role of inflammation in the brain, and how food and activity can reverse it What drugs can enhance or suppress the brain’s ability to heal itself Actionable advice to improve your memory, promote learning, and prevent common brain ailments   Connect with Chase @chase_chewning   Ever Forward Radio is made possible by our proud partners!

David Krantz takes a uniquely interdisciplinary angle to wellness, flow, and bio-individuality and provides some new perspectives and value to living a life ever forward! Specifically, David explains how using genetics to biohack nutrition, cannabis, and other psychoactives can unlock your highest human potential in your fitness, nutrition, and mindset. David is a coach specializing in using genetics and epigenetics to dial in personalized nutrition and lifestyle strategies for creative professionals; however, his background originally was in music and electronic music production. After experiencing some unusual health challenges in his mid-20s while touring as an artist he was forced to find answers on his own. Now he is focused on helping high performers to improve their overall resilience, focus, and mental functioning to help them avoid the problems he went through and move towards the opposite of burnout. "The field of nutrigenetics is still in its early days, and a great deal more is to be learned, but experts agree: Though evidence will continue to evolve over the next decade, we have enough good evidence to make it useful now."    Follow David @wholesystemshealth Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Ever Forward Radio is made possible by our proud partners!

In 2006 Sharon Brown a mother at her wit’s end. She had a six-year old son who had been on and off antibiotics since birth, suffering from chronic sinus infections, ear infections, and respiratory infections. After a particularly upsetting meeting with his first grade teacher, who was recommending ADD medication – on top of everything else – Sharon knew there had to be another way. She began searching for alternative solutions, but information was hard to come by – this was before you could find the answer to everything online. Finally, she came across the concept that bone broth could help strengthen the gut lining, and, therefore, support the immune system. After three months her son had not needed antibiotics once. Six months went by. Then nine. Then a year. Blake hadn’t gone to the doctor’s office once. They knew we were on to something!   Follow Sharon and Bonafide Provisions @bonafideprovisions Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Ever Forward Radio is made possible by our proud partners!

You’ve set goals and maybe even set records. You’ve definitely failed and at some point found yourself questioning if you were on the right track. You work hard, but you aren’t quite where you want to be. And to be honest, you’re not sure exactly where you want to be let alone how to get there.

Look up the word 'resilient' and you will find a picture of Dr. Saman Bakhtiar, DC. After fleeing war-torn Iran in the 1980's as a small child with his mother he was thrown into the school of hard knocks. Once he flipped the switch and decided he was in charge of his future and not his circumstances he built an empire. Then lost it. Then built it again, and he has not stopped succeeding, giving, and leading now even during a global pandemic and his national franchise of gyms are shut down. We discuss how he used resiliency, purpose, and the ‘time vs money’ dilemma to build then rebuild his business from scratch. In addition, he conveys the vital role mindfulness played in achieving his successes. Sam Bakhtiar is a doctor of chiropractic, CEO of The Camp fitness centers, author, world-class bodybuilder, and multi-millionaire entrepreneur.

Humans are social beings. The relationships that we create allow us to grow individually. However, building a long-term relationship with someone, be it romantic or not, inevitably comes with obstacles and challenges. When do we push for it to work, and when do we accept that it is not for us? In today's episode, relationship expert Fiachara 'Figs' O'Sullivan joins us to discuss the basics of relationship building therapy. He explains how personal development is deeply connected to how we act in our relationship with other people. We also talk about the ways we can make our relationships work through practicing empathy. If you've been looking for a sign on how to manage your relationships, then this episode will be insightful for you. Tune in to this podcast and start creating better relationships with yourself and your loved ones!   5 Powerful Quotes from This Episode “People's worst fights, people's biggest disconnection, (and) ongoing repetitive arguments are actually evidence of just how important they are to each other, not evidence that there's something fundamentally wrong with us.” “Are we coming to the end of this relationship? Or is this another growth opportunity?” “If you really love each other, you're going to get to a place where you scare each other.” “At the end of the day, it's not a sustainable way for the course of an entire lifetime to be beating ourselves up so that we perform our maximum capacity.” On living a life Ever Forward: “What it means to me is to continue to be honest with myself, be curious about myself, look inside, find what the real vulnerability is underneath whatever actions I'm taking, and then be willing and brave and courageous enough to share that vulnerability with the world.”   About the Guest Figs O'Sullivan is a certified emotionally focused couples therapist and counselor. He is the founder of Empathi.com, which is an engaging online relationship coaching program for couples.

For decades John Voris has studied and read ancient and modern philosophers as well as a wide range of psychology and metaphysical writings both eastern and western. He wanted to know why some people succeeded and others failed at certain career paths even though they had the same education and background and intelligence. He put together a program based on his own observations and supported by his studies, his own wisdom and the intelligence of hundreds of philosophers and psychologists throughout the centuries. This approach has led to new insights by connecting old ideas together then giving them a personal application. By tapping into all this esoteric knowledge John Voris is able to identify several hidden aspects to your being. When you understand and leverage your authentic nature you can express yourself freely and open yourself to your true motivations and desire creating more energy and well-being in your life.   Connect w/ Chase @chase_chewning   Ever Forward Radio is made possible by our proud partners!

One foot in front of the other. One rep more. One intentional meal. These small things may not seem like much in the moment they compound into monumental changes in our healthy behaviors. But how can we realistically measure progress along the way? How can we know what success looks and feels like? It is not always the number on the scale or the weight on the barbell, and that is what strength and conditioning expert Josh Cuthbert drives home to his clients whether they are stay-at-home parents, CEO's, or professional athletes.   Connect w/ Josh @jcuthbert_training Connect w/ Chase @chase_chewning   Ever Forward Radio is made possible by our proud partners!

What happens when you are in a relationship and your ritual of going to the gym doesn't make sense to the other person? How can we effectively communicate to our significant other what is important to us and why? Compromise in relationships are a must, but should you have to sacrifice your own health and fitness just because it is not as important to the other person? All these questions and more we explore in the January 2020 relationship health episode.   Connect w/ May @mayyazdi Connect w/ Chase @chase_chewning   Ever Forward Radio is made possible by our proud partners!

It's 2020, and while in many ways life has become easier it has also become polluted with distractions from our true purpose. Whether it is as grand as working our way to the top of the corporate ladder or simply trying to focus on the one small task in front of us as part of our daily living. Nir Eyal, author of Indistractable, writes, consults, and teaches about the intersection of psychology, technology, and business.

We all can agree that, when it comes to improving our health and fitness we have to put in the reps. Usually that means in the gym. But... what about our spiritual health? How can we go deeper on the parts of our progress in the gym and in life that we can't quite put a finger on as to why things are working so well (or not)? Sal Di Stefano and Adam Schafer of Mind Pump and Josiah Novak of True Transformation and I begin discussing what we believe it means to be authentic and our interpretation of masculinity but quickly find ourselves talking about religion, spirituality and even the "woo".     Connect w/ Adam @mindpumpadam Connect w/ Sal @mindpumpsal Connect w/ Josiah @josiahfitness Connect w/ Chase @chase_chewning     Ever Forward Radio is made possible by our proud partners!

The word toxic may have been popularized by Britney Spears or System of a Down but its science has been broken down by Dr. Ann Shippy! In today's episode, we discuss the seemingly safe everyday items in our home that may be making us sick, causing poor sleep, creating hormone imbalances, causing headaches or simply keeping us from our optimal wellness. But here is the most powerful takeaway - we can radically change this for the better by simply choosing where and how we spend our money. The concept of voting with your dollars applies especially to what you put into your body, where you rest your head, and how you can let leading industries know that you demand better from them.   Dr. Shippy is a board certified in internal medicine, certified in functional medicine whose life purpose is working with science, clinical data, and research to provide you with the knowledge and tools to achieve optimal health. The science and research that directly relates our environment and nutrition to health prompted Dr. Shippy to found two health-based foundations. Her hope is to contribute to and inspire a positive movement towards solving some of the more complex health challenges we face today – and to help create a world where everyone has the opportunity for wellness.   Connect w/ Dr. Ann Shippy @annshippymd Connect w/ Chase @chase_chewning   Ever Forward Radio is made possible by our proud partners!

As said many times on the show before, there is no greater coach than our own bodies - IF we take pause and actually listen to it. Sam Davis was forced to radically overhaul her life, her training and nutrition once she began to pay attention to the cries for help her body was giving her. Narrowing down to severe adrenal fatigue, thyroid problems and overall hormonal imbalance Sam put the barbell down in order to take back her health, a process that took her the better part of a year. Through the exquisite care of a medical provider that opened her eyes to the world of natural supplements and careful nutritional changes Sam has reclaimed her wellness and identity.   Connect w/ Sam @samdavis19 Connect w/ Chase @chase_chewning   Ever Forward Radio is made possible by our proud partners!

"Where the mind goes the body will follow" is a phrase often said around here, but probably no guest to date has embodied it as much as Laura Micetich. Over 300 pounds at one point in her life, Laura realized that she wanted more out of her existence because she realized she was just merely existing. She was settling on someone else's definition of what was possible, so she picked up some weights and hasn't looked back since.   Connect w/ Laura @theirongiantess Connect w/ Chase @chase_chewning   Ever Forward Radio is made possible by our proud partners!

Zach shares tangible steps to increase productivity in your daily life and your business.   After literally dying and coming back to life as a child, Zach has made it his life's mission to squeeze every ounce of possibility of today and prepare for a better tomorrow.

Pivot your perspective and change your life. Many of us run on an endless string of vague goals, should-haves, and "tomorrows", with true, empowering change always just out of reach.

Celebrity manual therapist and movement coach Aaron Alexander joins us again to teach how posture and body alignment are powerful tools for building strength, achieving peak performance, reducing pain, and approaching the world with a new sense of confidence.    Good posture is about more than standing up straight: It can change your mood, alleviate pain, rid your body of stressful tension, and may be the difference between getting that raise you've wanted and attracting your ideal mate, or not. But in order to reap all those benefits, the body must be properly integrated. Aaron offers a revolutionary approach to body alignment to build strength, reduce pain, and put you on a direct path to peak performance that is both fun and accessible. The Align Method centers on five daily optimizations that can be easily integrated into any workout, mindfulness practice, or daily life activity: Floor Sitting Hanging Hip-Hinging Walking Nose Breathing   A truly aligned life isn't limited to sweating in a gym or stretching in a yoga studio, and Aaron provides the fundamental principles to optimize your physical and mental process in any situation. Blending Eastern philosophy with Western mechanics, The Align Method brilliantly outlines the necessary tools to leverage the power of your own senses and body language to feel more flexible and confident, and details exactly how to reshape your environment for enhanced creativity and longevity. This is the quintessential user's manual to feeling better than you ever thought possible, and looking great while you're at it!   Connect w/ Aaron @alignpodcast Connect w/ Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Listen to Aaron's first interview on episode 174 Get Aaron's new book The Align Method The 2020 EF Coach Mentorship is coming!

We now know that about 80% of our immune system is made up in our gut. So to improve a vast majority of our overall wellness we really need to be focusing on our microbiome. As an attorney, Tina Anderson also worked in the pharmaceutical field for 15 years. Together with their family, they had built thriving careers. But, while successful, their careers were not feeding their passion of natural health and well-being. During their quest, they discovered how incredibly important gut health is to overall health, and they discovered that an imbalance in the gut leads to the majority of diseases and illness out there. Tina and Billy also learned that, in order to rebalance your gut, you need to take a daily probiotic that actually works, meaning the friendly bacteria (probiotics) win out the every day battle over the bad bacteria.     Connect w/ Tina @justthrivehealth Connect w/ Chase @chase_chewning     Ever Forward Radio is made possible by our proud partners!

Depression. Anxiety. PTSD. Seasonal affective disorder. Sadness. Happiness. We all have mental health, some people have mental illness. There is a difference between the two but it can often get lumped into the same category. We believe that, as part of our entire wellbeing, we need to bring more attention to improving our mental health. We need to learn how to help our loved ones that may be suffering from mental illness. But overall, as part of living a life ever forward, we need bring awareness to how we perceive our mindset, its contribution to our wellness and possible indicators that it is not well.   Follow May @mayyazdi Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Ever Forward Radio is made possible by our proud partners!

"Socks with benefits." The driving force behind what makes Comrad Socks so helpful and so successful. Founder Andrew Ferenci discovered the life-changing benefits of compression socks and set out to create a company to revolutionize the functionality (and fashion) of this health and fitness secret weapon. Here are just some of the incredible benefits of these companions... Wearing compression socks during any length of flight helps keep your blood circulating. Not only will this help you combat jet-lag and fatigue, but studies show this reduces serious health risks such as blood clots. Comrad works by applying graduated pressure to your lower legs, which pumps your blood and oxygen around that area and to your heart so you can fly safely. Compression socks also increase blood circulation, which energizes and relieves swollen, achy and fatigued legs and feet. Whether you are running a marathon or just running out the door to catch the bus, you’ll feel better and recover faster with Comrad.

"NO MAN HAS THE RIGHT TO BE AN AMATEUR IN THE MATTER OF PHYSICAL TRAINING. It is a shame for a man to grow old without seeing the beauty and strength of which his body is capable." -Socrates That is the quote on Kenny Santucci's home page and very much the crux of our conversation in this special bonus episode, Coffee Talk. In the comfort of a cafe close to his apartment in NYC, Kenny and I sat down over a cup of coffee, STRONG COFFEE of course, and shared origin stories of physical training, why it matters more than just competing in CrossFit or for a reality TV show, and how to see the beauty and strength of which these bodies are truly capable. Kenny is an actor, perhaps most widely known for his recurring appearances on MTV's "The Challenge" game show and avid CrossFitter. "Mr. Beautiful" believes "it is about working to be the best version of you right now, so when you feel great and look great you will treat you and others great."   Follow Kenny @kennysantucci Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Coffee Talk is made possible by our friends at STRONG COFFEE COMPANY Enjoy a cup of matcha or coffee that helps you not only wake the F up, but empowers your body and mind to do something bold while serving a greater cause. Save 20% with code "CHASE" here: https://www.strongcoffeecompany.com  

In my wellness journey, specifically during the last several years, I have looked more inward for change than strictly external training. Lo Bondi has helped with that internal work and allowed me to better identify and work through past traumas in my "sacred container", as she calls it, to create the healing and re-patterning process necessary.  Lo's psychology background provides her the scope of practice but it is her personal physical and emotional traumas that give her the anecdotal experience to relate to her audience and clients in a profound way. A survivor in the truest sense, Lo's continued self-work makes her a lighthouse of what is possible when we decide to face the good, the bad, and the ugly in our lives on our wellness journey.   Follow Lo @lo.bondi Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Ever Forward Radio is made possible by our proud partners!

We are bombarded with fad diets and bio hacks that promise to be the latest and greatest methods to improve our wellness, lose weight, gain muscle and everything in between. But humans, as a species, have survived and evolved for thousands and thousands of years off of basic principles in our eating habits and circadian rhythm.

Welcome to the first episode in a mini-series from the Spartan World Championships 2019 from the beautiful Squaw Valley in Lake Tahoe, CA! Ever Forward Radio was present and in full force engaging with athletes, weekend warriors, and everyone in between during this multi-day event in September, 2019. While thousands were making their way through the obstacle courses, host Chase Chewning sat down with experts and leaders in human performance, nutrition, recovery, technology, psychology and so much more for these powerfully informative podcasts. First up is CEO and Founder of WHOOP, Will Ahmed. Will became inspired by a simple idea: Humans, especially athletes, could optimize their daily performance. Optimizing performance was not a random sequence of events and decisions, but rather a systematic approach to understanding your body. His mission at WHOOP is to unlock human performance. When you choose to partner with their tools they will do everything they can to help you find your inner potential.

Studies show that collagen is critical to the support and reconstruction of joints (cartilage/synovial fluids) and is indispensable if used as a recovery tool after exercise.

The minute he picked up his first fitness and nutrition magazine he knew that it was what he was born to do. He became NASM and ACE certified so he could understand all parts of fitness and nutrition. He wanted to absorb as much as he could to feel his best and also share his passion with others. This passion lifted him from his darkest times and helped him overcome years of addiction, which resulted in his sobriety. Fitness isn’t just about physical appearance. Fitness is a lifestyle that is constantly evolving. With that newfound mindset, Brad opened the doors to Key Nutrition in March 2017 and he has never looked back.

"Change your nutrition, change your life." Adjusting your diet can do much more than just tip the scale in your favor, for some it can literally change your entire well-being. This was the case for Johnny and Bethany Gonzalez once they took a look at their diet in comparison to their physical symptoms of allergies, auto-immune issues, and total body inflammation. Basically - how they felt entirely! The keto diet and eventually adopting a whole foods focused and sugar-free diet has helped them not only look their best but feel years younger in ways they never thought possible! Although you may not see it now, in the past, Johnny and Bethany of Top Notch Nutrition both struggled with very serious health issues. Bethany suffered from a debilitating auto-immune disease that crippled her in more ways than one. A victim of Guillain Barre Syndrome, a disease that caused her to have no motor or sensory function in her lower legs, preventing her from walking without assistance. This was accompanied by a multitude of other life-altering symptoms, including chronic nerve pain, poor sleep, poor diet and an unhealthy relationship with food. As for Johnny, he had some of the worst allergies his doctor had ever seen (both environmental & food), along with SIBO, Candida overgrowth, unexplainable throat and mouth ulcers, etc. Along with their commitment to each other, they made the commitment to doing everything they could to improve their overall health. After spending thousands and thousands (and more thousands!) of dollars on traditional medicine and treatments, they realized they needed to take a different route. They needed to heal themselves naturally, through diet, supplementation and faith.

How many times has someone told you can't do something? They have said you will fail, or you will never be successful at something simply because you're not the right age, sex, race, whatever?!

*Try Catalina Crunch today and save 10% off your first order or use code FORWARD10 at checkout!* What happens when we are told we can't have something? We want it more, right? Or perhaps we dwell on how things are going to be more difficult or how restrictive our life is going to be? What if we took that same decision-making power and only focused on what we could have and could control in our life and could create around new parameters? That is exactly what Krishna Kaliannan did shortly after being diagnosed as a type-1 diabetic and epileptic in the same doctor's visit. As a kid, Krishna ate chocolate puffs every day for breakfast & loved them! Unfortunately, when he turned 17, he was diagnosed with T1 diabetes, and epilepsy. He still wanted a cereal that would satisfy his chocolate craving but didn’t have all that sugar and empty carbs. So he made his own and founded Catalina Crunch - an incredible line of cereals that are keto friendly, gluten free, grain free, 100% vegan, non-gmo, and 0% sugar that are great-tasting and great-for-you.

For many of us, we began dieting at a young age and perhaps were not even fully aware of it. That was the case for Frankie Gonyea at the age of only 8 years old. Extreme training and dieting methods were the norm due to his chosen path as an athlete, but those habits stayed with him long after the season ended. Unable to even look at himself in the mirror, Frankie spiraled into a depression and a myriad of other unhealthy habits before finally coming face to face with those diet demons.

Most people think mental toughness when they imagine a Navy SEAL. What they don’t expect is the thoughtful, yoga-innovating, joking and laughing, professor of leadership named Mark Divine. Grown up in upstate New York, a degree in economics and an MBA from NYU. He’d prepared for life as a high powered CPA… and then left his high paying finance career for the adventurous life of a Navy SEAL officer. Now he’s once again sought after by those same corporations and institutions, as a trainer of the mental toughness and the whole person training that shaped, and healed him. Through Mark’s teaching, entrepreneurial endeavors and travel to foreign countries, he noticed the power of mental toughness, emotional resilience, intuitive leadership and a healthy spirit for anyone wanting breakthrough performance. They weren’t solely for combat or restricted to the business world or one culture. He’d watch them transform lives in people from every background, nation and belief system. So he wrote and self-published his first book, Unbeatable Mind, in 2011 and launched its at-home study program, followed by The Way of the Seal.

Welcome to the April bonus episode with Chase's wife, May. May is a RN, BSN and FNP student at the University of Southern California. Her journey in the medical field was not an easy one, a path that zigged many times when she thought it was going to zag. But, the moral of the story is she learned how to shift her mindset when it came to her passion for her career. Chase also shares how his profession in the health and wellness industry was wrought with a series of significant changes that ultimately landed him creating his own destiny.  This conversation stemmed from May's most recent blog post, "The Career Dilemma", that we have shared a preview of here: The catch is, you have to have passion, but that doesn’t mean that you have to be in love with what you do. Passion is a feeling of enthusiasm or desire for someone or something. It is an eager interest in an idea or a cause. Passion in a verb. Love, on the other hand, is an intense emotion or deep affection. Love is a noun. Passion is about being the very best version of yourself and pouring everything that you are and everything you do, into what you believe and that goes for your career as well.
