What if your watch knew you needed rest before you did, and could prove it with clean, actionable data? We dive into the real-world fundamentals of AI-powered wearables, from heart rate variability and sleep stages to temperature changes and biomarker integrations, then translate that tech into clear choices for different lives: city commutes and app ecosystems, suburban flexibility across home and work, and rugged, offline reliability for cabins, farms, and long trails.

Winter doesn’t need to sideline your energy or your joy. We open the cabin door to ice fishing as a practical antidote to seasonal affective disorder, laying out a simple, confident plan for your first day on hard water: the exact starter gear that won’t drain your wallet, the ice thickness rules that keep you safe, and the rescue drills that turn fear into muscle memory. You’ll understand what to wear, what to carry, and how to move across the ice like someone who belongs there.

In this solo episode, we also unpack the living roots of the sport, from Inuit and Ojibwe innovations to traditions on Chagan Lake and beyond. That heritage reframes modern ice fishing as a cross-cultural skill that still puts food on the table while building community and resilience.

This episode is featured in USA News. Winter doesn’t have to feel heavy or gray. We explore a practical, science-backed way to beat Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) by embracing outdoor time, adopting a winter-positive mindset and choosing activities that are fun, affordable, and easy to start. From daylight walks to moonlit hikes, we map out how fresh air, movement, and a little grit can lift mood, sharpen focus, create a healthy lifestyle, and make cold days feel like an opportunity instead of a burden.

In this solo episode, I break down what SAD looks like, why it hits so hard, and which lifestyle levers move the needle the most. We talk through approachable winter options—daily walks, cross-country skiing, and an eye-opening primer on skijoring, the hybrid sport that pairs skiing with a dog who loves to run and pull.

This episode is featured in USA News. Blood sugar shouldn’t feel like a roller coaster. We sat down with functional medicine expert Dr. Kevin Smith to unpack how metabolism really works —across hormones, immune function, gut health, and brain — and why so many people feel hungry, foggy, and exhausted even while “doing everything right.” Dr. Smith explains insulin resistance in plain language, how to achieve hormone balance, nutrition tips, how cells make ATP, and the hidden ways stress and sleep shape glucose levels. He also challenges old grazing advice and shows how intermittent fasting and smart macronutrients can re-sensitize insulin, stabilize energy, and support autophagy for cellular cleanup.
