Welcome back,

Today I will be giving a quick overview on systems and most of the principles I've gathered over the past four years. The topic itself is close to my heart as the systems theory is the very foundation of my agency, and understanding it could fundamentally change your life.

Sadly I do not have any direct sources from which I got my theories, instead I will direct the listener to several sources that have allowed me to formulate my systems theory.

Good sources

  • Strongfit podcast

  • Demon in the machine

  • Darwin does physics

  • What is life

  • Systems theory

Hi there, welcome back to another episode.

Fabian, a good friend of mine is back to chat with me about a passion that we both share; nutrition and what it can do for you.

We touch on plenty of topics during the podcast that, I'm sure, can shed new light on the topic of food and its relation to wellbeing.

I will repeat what I said during our conversation which is that neither of us are nutritionist by trade and instead wish to share our own personal view on nutrition.

Enjoy!

The truths I am sharing are my own based on my personal experience and built theoretical knowledge, I invite anyone listening to discuss with me on the minutia and their own personal views.

I've invited Daz over for a chat about his struggles and how we personally overcame his obstacles through effort.   

What I love about Daz is first of all his action-based approach and second his logical way of approaching an issue.   

A great Martial-Artist and an incredibly hard worker.   

What I hope you the listener get out of this conversation is a newfound agency over your own life, a way out of the darkness.

Both Seth and I are advent fans of Martial-Arts and seek to improve our performance through exercise and other health-promoting habits, during these chats we try to give each other insights into our successes and failures and learn from one another.

Seth as young as he is has already got a lot of life experience under his belt and has on numerous occasions taught me a thing or two.

aIt is my hope that you the listener get something out of these chats and will in turn share the wisdom with those around you, as Albert Einstein said '' I stand on the shoulders of giants''.

Hey listeners,

Seth and I have done an extensive amount of work on breathing both by experimenting and reading theory in a very short period, and we are very excited to share this newfound knowledge with the world.

Luck may have it that Seth and I are completely different in our approach to breathing; Seth links it to meditation and spirituality and  I try to dive deep into the mechanics.

Enjoy our chat about breathing and feel free to try our techniques for yourself!
