Hello my Get Uncomfortable compadre!
If you're new to the show, welcome!
If you do find value in the show, learn something, get inspired, or laugh I ask that you bring me ONE new friend to listen to the show this week. It means the world that you're willing to spread the message of Get Uncomfortable and join in this battle against mediocrity.
Get your notes app ready for this one.
Today I had the honor of speaking with David Olcott, founder of Samurai Success, author of Swords of Illumination, he is master certified in NLP, a business & personal coach, former trainer for Anthony Robbins, and much more.
We had a fantastic conversation about his book, the technologies his company uses to help their clients achieve results in business and life like never before, manifesting your dreams, defining your values, creating a sense of destiny, and the importance of love & congruency.
When I read Swords of Illumination I knew right away how powerful his book was. It is set in the Edo period of Japan and tracks the journey of young Yoshi on his path to becoming a great Samurai.
It speaks directly to the human condition of finding purpose, living up to and defining your values, doing the right actions to uphold your values, and ultimately living life as the person you know you can truly be.

On today's episode I was lucky enough to it down with one of the worlds leading sports scientists, elite level coach, author, speaker and former monk, Shayamal Vallabhjee.
This conversation was deep, insightful, and actionable.
In my opinion Shayamal has a special talent of measuring the intangible aspects of performance instead of hoping they show up when needed. He has systems to track them, make them repeatable and use them for growth.
We started off discussing spirituality and specifically some passages from the Bhagavad Gita and how it can help us all live life a little more free and less attached to the outcome.
From there we went all over elite performance, mindset, psychology, and optimization of our lives.
I know you will love this episode and learn some invaluable insights from the world class coach and human; Shayamal Vallabhjee.

Today we have Kayla Keep in Studio to break down what Orofacial Myofuntional therapy is all about and how it can help the lives of children and their parents.
The range of issues associated with improper tongue posture, restricted airways and all other things orocfacial was shocking to me when she broke them all down.
We covered why it's so important to breathe through your nose and stop mouth breathing, why some kids are picky eaters and how to help with that, changing the facial structure and form of the facial muscles which drastically changes the appearance of someones profile and much much more.
This was such a great conversation and I learned a ton and I know you will too.

Thank you so much for coming on the show Nissa!
In this episode we covered a wide range of topics; behavior change when it comes to nutrition & lifestyle change, her journey into entrepreneurship, her thoughts on children's nutrition, the problems with covid policies, and more.

I had the opportunity to have a conversation with XPT's Director of Performance; PJ Nestler.
PJ has been a high level strength & conditioning coach for elite athletes for the majority of his career. To say he understands living a high performance life would be an understatement.
PJ now works with Laird Hamilton and his wife Gabby Reece as Director of performance at their company XPT as well as being the head of performance for Fitlab.
XPT is where I took my performance breath work certification and couldn't believe the quality of the program. I learned so much about physiology and mechanics as it relates to breath and I kn ow you'll learn a ton from this episode.
We got into the importance of a connection factor for a high performance life, the tactical games, breathing and breath work, pool training, and breathing protocols that you can apply in your life to improve breathing efficiency.
I hope you all enjoy the conversation as much as I did, Cheers!
