I grab the mic to discuss my latest lab test results and how I'm shocked that my ApoB came out much higher than anticipated. This is a protein that can be used to determine heart disease risk. I discuss the differences between Medicine 2.0 (attacking the issue after you have it) and Medicine 3.0 (preventing the issue before it occurs). Below are extra biomarkers that Dr. Peter Attia recommends we get tested.
Coronary calcium scan
A screening that looks for calcium deposits in the heart’s arteries—to determine risk for cardiovascular disease. This test involves a CT scan of your heart, which is then used to give you a calcium score. The higher your score, the more likely you are to develop heart disease.
In addition to a standard annual blood test—which includes a basic metabolic panel and a complete blood count (CBC)—Attia also recommends five preventative tests:
Biomarker Tests:
Lipoprotein (a) (Lp(a)-P): Certain LPA gene expressions are linked to an increased risk for blood vessel diseases, stroke, and heart attack. You only need to get this test done once to uncover your genotype.
APOE Gene: This one time test can determine your risk for neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s.
ApoB: This test measures ApoB levels, the main protein found in the “bad” low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, and can be used to determine heart disease risk.
OGTT with insulin measurements: This test has more sensitivity and specificity than a typical A1C glucose test when used to diagnose pre-diabetes.
ALT: This test can indicate fatty liver disease risk. When alanine transaminase (ALT)—an enzyme that is released when your liver is injured or damaged—levels are high, it may indicate that your liver isn’t functioning optimally.

Jacob and his wife started their travel blogging business, The Local Adventurer, a decade ago with the idea of exploring locations both near and far and encouraging others to do the same.

Boston Marathon bombing survivor, motivational speaker and bad-ass woman Adrianne Haslet joins me on this episode to discuss her truly remarkable life journey full of ups and downs and a lot of resilience. I genuinely appreciated her vulnerability and candidness about her experience on April 15, 2013 as a spectator, being just inches away from one of the bombs at the Boston Marathon that ended up taking one of her legs. Having recently just passed the 10-year anniversary of this horrific event, we discuss not only that day, but the years that have passed since and another accident of being hit by a car that left her upper body shattered. She talks about her mental health, the hard times and picking herself up again and again and how she continues to move forward and not just survive, but thrive. Adrianne shows that she's human, but it's clear to see she's among the best of us. She made a promise just days after the bombing she would not only run the Boston Marathon, but she would finish it. A feat she has accomplished multiple times since. An incredible story of perseverance that has just begun.

Here is the story of our night on April 7th, 2022, when a drunk driver slammed into our cars and drove away, all while we were in bed. It was a scary situation, and honestly, we're still in shock and somewhat traumatized by this as the driver was just a few feet from driving into our home. Let this be yet another reminder, there is no excuse for drinking and driving.
Super excited to be joined by world-class runner, Andie Cozzarelli, on this episode. It’s not everyday you get to have a conversation with a runner who has 5 state championships in NC, 10k All American and Female Athlete of the Year at NC State.
Her accomplishments speak for themselves. It’s no wonder she qualified for the Olympic trials in the marathon and she’s gunning for it again. For someone like myself that runs as part of my workout routine, I can not fathom running with her speed for the distance she covers. It’s truly remarkable.
Not only do we cover her history and accolades, but we dive deep into the mindset of a runner as well. The ups and downs, her struggles and highlights.
Did I mention that Andie is also quite an amazing running coach as well? The advice she gives during this episode on training, cadence, fueling, recovery, lifting and form is the best you’ll ever receive.
This is one incredible woman with a story you don’t want to miss.

Long time friend, podcast host and author, Brian Ondrako, joins me on this episode to discuss the view and perception on waiting to get married until you're "older" and why society seems to look down upon that. Waiting myself until 39 to get engaged and married, this is something I have struggled with for over a decade. So many moments I doubted myself, wondering what was wrong with me, feeling lonely and depressed. Society has somehow created this "norm" of being married by 30 and starting a family or something must be wrong. I got asked constantly "Why are you still single?" as if waiting for the right partner and to be truly happy with myself and who I am was a negative. Brian, having been married in his 20's and now single, has a great perspective on this as well. Being back in the world of dating, he discusses what he's learned over the years and the lessons that marriage has taught him now that he's older.

Iceland glacier guide and NFT photographer, Ryan Newburn joins me on this episode to discuss his absolutely incredible life journey. From becoming one of the top players in the world at Yu-Gi-Oh! as a teenager, to overcoming obesity and depression, losing 140 pounds. After finally achieving his goal of weight loss and enlisting in the Navy, he was discharged due to an injury which caused another downward spiral. Soon after, he was given the idea of leaving it all behind to go to Japan. He turned that into "The Walk from Obesity", raising thousands of dollars while walking the entire length of Japan, shortly followed by walking the country of New Zealand. Along these travels, he picked up his passion for photography. He has since moved to Iceland and has been trained by one of the best photographers in the world. Ryan now owns his own glacier guide company, Ice Pic Journeys, providing guided hikes, photography tours, workshops and has become a major artist in the world of NFTs.

Artist and painter, Jackie Sanders, joins me on this episode to discuss how she pursues her happiness and passion in art. Being a fellow artist myself (graphic design), I loved speaking the same language as Jackie, but our professions are so much different. I was truly interested in where she continues to get her inspiration from to create piece after piece. Not only is Jackie an artist, but she's also a business owner. She has her own gallery in downtown Raleigh where she sells her work as well as her social media. She debunks the term "starving artist" as she's started a successful business from the ground up and explains how. On top of all of that, Jackie is a mentor for other artists all over the globe with her mentorship in the "Level Up Artist Community" and her own podcast, Art Studio Insights.
