Registered dietitian and personal trainer Rachael DeVaux joins Dr. Will Cole to make the case for protein as the most important - and most underestimated - macro in most people's diets. They cover how much protein you actually need, why breakfast is the most critical meal to front-load it, the complete vs. incomplete protein debate, and what the new HHS dietary guidelines finally got right. Rachael also walks through a full day of meals that hits 120 grams of protein, her approach to feeding toddlers for brain health and stable blood sugar, and why she tracks protein but removed calories entirely from her cookbook.

Jessica Maguire - physiotherapist, nervous system researcher, and founder of Repairing the Nervous System - joins Dr. Will Cole for one of the most scientifically rich conversations the podcast has had on trauma, regulation, and healing. They cover the eight sensory systems, the overlooked science of interoception, why IBS has been reclassified as a gut-brain disorder, the freeze and collapse response, and why breathwork can actually dysregulate people who aren't ready for it. Jessica also shares her personal loss and the research journey it set in motion, and gives practical in-the-moment tools for nervous system repair grounded in neuroplasticity principles.
