Metabolic Health Without the Bullsh*t with Lorie Eber
In this practical and refreshingly honest episode of the SuperSelf Podcast Series, Pete Ferrari sits down with metabolic health and wellness coach Lorie Eber to cut through the diet fads, supplement marketing, social media misinformation, and quick fixes that keep people confused, frustrated, and unhealthy.At 70 years old, Lorie begins her days with strength training and time on the Peloton before most people are awake. But her approach to metabolic health is not built around punishing workouts, starvation diets, expensive supplements, or trying to live like a fitness influencer.It comes down to the fundamentals: eat real food, move your body, sleep properly, manage stress, maintain social connections, and build habits that work with your actual life.Pete and Lorie discuss why modern society is designed to make people sedentary, overstimulated, sleep-deprived, and dependent on highly processed food. They unpack how restaurants manipulate portion sizes and flavour, why willpower eventually runs out, and how controlling your environment can make healthy choices considerably easier.They also explore exercise consistency, the dangers of weekend blowouts, misleading nutrition labels, protein shakes, supplements, the gut microbiome, menopause, hormone replacement therapy, and why the number on the scale is often one of the least useful ways to measure progress.This episode is not about becoming perfect. It is about building a realistic, sustainable lifestyle that gives you more energy, better health, greater independence, and a higher quality of life.Episode Highlights:06:04 – Why TikTok, DoorDash, and online health advice create more confusion17:10 – How salad dressing can turn a healthy meal into a calorie bomb24:00 – Why ten minutes of movement is better than waiting for the perfect workout33:53 – What walking can teach us about obesity and metabolic health39:03 – The gut microbiome and why marketing is ahead of the science42:52 – Why chewing fruit is different from blending or juicing it48:22 – Hormone replacement therapy and the need for qualified menopause careKey Takeaways:There is no secret biohack that replaces proper food, regular movement, quality sleep, stress management, and meaningful human connection.If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.Being busy does not eliminate your responsibility to your body.Make the healthy option the lazy option.Restaurants have heard every dietary request imaginable. Ask for what you need.Consistency matters more than the fantasy of the perfect workout.Health habits must change when life changes.The scale does not tell the full story.Supplements cannot replace a healthy lifestyle.About the Guest:Lorie Eber is a metabolic health and wellness coach, researcher, author, and former attorney who helps people build realistic, sustainable habits around nutrition, weight management, exercise, sleep, stress, menopause, and healthy ageing.Her evidence-based approach rejects fad diets, quick fixes, extreme restriction, and supplement-driven wellness culture. Instead, she helps clients understand their individual habits, environments, schedules, and challenges so they can create a healthier lifestyle that works in the real world.Lorie is the author of ten books, including How to Get Healthy in a World Designed to Make Us Fat and Lazy, and is currently writing her eleventh book.She also provides recipes, educational resources, wellness coaching, and complimentary introductory consultations for people looking to improve their metabolic health and overall quality of life.Connect with Lorie Eber:WebsiteYouTubeLinkedInInstagramBooksThis episode is brought to you by Jaca Rare Sugar.Jaca is a revolutionary, rare sugar called allulose with 0 net carbs, 0 glycemic index (diabetic & keto friendly), and 90% fewer calories than sugar.

Rewiring Anxiety, Anger and Trauma with Craig Meriwether
In this fascinating episode of the SuperSelf Podcast Series, Pete Ferrari sits down with clinical and medical hypnotherapist Craig Meriwether to separate therapeutic hypnosis from the stage tricks, swinging watches, mind control, and movie nonsense that have shaped how most people see it.With more than 20 years of experience helping people work through anxiety, stress, anger, insecurity, fear, and trauma, Craig explains that hypnotherapy is not about giving someone else control of your mind. It is about reclaiming control from the automatic patterns, emotional triggers, and protective responses that may already be running your life.Together, Pete and Craig explore how past experiences can condition the nervous system to respond as though an old threat is still happening today. Pete opens up about the rage that protected him through childhood trauma but has sometimes worked against him later in life, while Craig explains why anger, anxiety, and fear are not inherently bad. They are protective responses that may simply need to be updated when they are no longer appropriate for the present moment.From the placebo effect and subconscious patterns to brainwave states, visualisation, breathwork, bilateral stimulation, and nervous system regulation, this episode offers a practical and grounded look at how the mind can influence the body.This is not about erasing your past or pretending difficult emotions do not exist. It is about understanding why your mind learned to protect you in a certain way—and discovering that you may now have the power to choose a different response.Episode Highlights:05:12 – Is hypnosis real, or is it just a rehearsed stage trick?09:05 – Why hypnosis cannot force someone to do something they do not want to do17:27 – How ordinary daydreaming and automatic driving resemble altered states of awareness30:13 – Why the mind can react physically to imagined danger37:36 – When someone should consider trying hypnotherapy54:07 – Box breathing and the 5-4-3-2-1 grounding method for anxietyKey Takeaways:Hypnotherapy is not mind control.You may already be “hypnotised” by your own patterns. The subconscious mind is focused on safety, not necessarily happiness. You cannot always think your way out of an emotional pattern.Stress and fear still serve an important purpose. The goal is not to remove every uncomfortable emotion.Healing does not mean forgetting what happened. The goal is not to erase memories or create amnesia. It is to reduce the emotional charge attached to the past so that the experience no longer dictates every present-day response.About the Guest:Craig Meriwether is a clinical and medical hypnotherapist with more than 20 years of experience helping people address anxiety, stress, trauma, fear, insecurity, anger, confidence, and unwanted emotional patterns.After experiencing significant anxiety and depression during his own teenage years, Craig became deeply involved in personal development and began researching tools that could support lasting emotional change. His journey eventually led him to hypnotherapy, first through his own healing and later through professional training.Craig is a bestselling contributing author to Pearls of Wisdom and the creator of Depression 180, a collection of resources, exercises, recordings, and workbooks developed to help people better understand and work through depression and related emotional challenges.Today, Craig primarily works one-to-one with clients through online hypnotherapy sessions, allowing him to support people across the United States and around the world.Connect with Craig Meriwether:WebsiteFacebookYouTubeInstagramLinkedInThis episode is brought to you by Jaca Rare Sugar.Jaca is a revolutionary, rare sugar called allulose with 0 net carbs, 0 glycemic index (diabetic & keto friendly), and 90% fewer calories than sugar.

Why Business Success Means Nothing If You’re Missing Your Life with Jim Sabellico
In this episode of the Super Self Podcast, Pete Ferrari sits down with serial entrepreneur, author, business coach, and No Half Cakes founder Jim Sabellico for an honest conversation about achievement, presence, family, and what success is actually supposed to feel like.Jim started his first business at eight years old and went on to build multiple seven- and eight-figure companies. He knew how to work, provide, and win professionally, but for years, that success came at a significant personal cost.The wake-up call came on his son’s sixth birthday.Jim arrived home at 8:45 p.m. after missing the entire celebration. His exhausted family placed a half-eaten birthday cake on the table so they could quickly sing before everyone went to bed. Standing in front of that cake, Jim realised he had built the outward appearance of success while missing the life he was supposedly working so hard to provide.That moment became the foundation of No Half Cakes: a philosophy of refusing to settle for partial success in business, health, family, relationships, emotional wellbeing, or spiritual life.Pete and Jim explore why being busy is not the same as being productive, how entrepreneurs can become more present without abandoning ambition, and why every person needs to define success for themselves rather than blindly following another guru’s formula.They also discuss communication, self-awareness, parenting, technology, AI, comparison, grace, mercy, and the power of building a family where everyone feels safe enough to call each other forward.This episode is a reminder that you do not have to destroy your personal life to build a successful business, and that no amount of money, recognition, or status can replace being present for the people you love.Episode Highlights:04:21 — The half-eaten birthday cake that changed everything15:25 — Jim’s six slices of life24:29 — Letting your spouse and children challenge your behaviour28:30 — Why half-present parenting can feel worse than absence40:05 — Why possessions, businesses, and children’s achievements do not define you44:22 — Using AI to buy back time instead of replacing yourself54:28 — Slowing down enough to hear the wisdom around youKey Takeaways:Success is not what you own, it is the life waiting inside your house.Being busy is not a badge of honour.When you are at work, work. When you are home, be home.Involve your family instead of treating them as an obstacleTake the moment you are in seriouslyStop letting numbers define whether your work mattersAI should buy back your time, not replace your humanity.About the Guest:Jim Sabellico is a serial entrepreneur, author, coach, speaker, and founder of the No Half Cakes podcast and philosophy.He began his entrepreneurial journey at eight years old and has since built and participated in multiple seven- and eight-figure businesses. After years of prioritising business growth over his family and personal life, Jim experienced a wake-up call on his son’s sixth birthday that forced him to redefine success.Today, he helps entrepreneurs and high achievers build profitable businesses without sacrificing their health, relationships, families, faith, emotional wellbeing, or personal fulfilment.His work focuses on intentionality, communication, self-awareness, family, entrepreneurship, presence, and creating a definition of success that is genuinely your own.Connect with Jim Sabellico:Website: https://nohalfcakes.com/FacebookXYouTubeInstagramLinkedInTikTokThreadsThis episode is brought to you by Jaca Rare Sugar.Jaca is a revolutionary, rare sugar called allulose with 0 net carbs, 0 glycemic index (diabetic & keto friendly), and 90% fewer calories than sugar.

Navy SEAL Mindset, Discipline, Commitment, and Mission Success with Don Mann
In this episode of the Super Self Podcast, Pete Ferrari sits down with Don Mann, former Navy SEAL, SEAL Team Six member, longtime CIA contractor, endurance athlete, bestselling author, speaker, survival expert, and one of the most relentless performers to ever come through the series.Don spent 21 years in the Navy SEALs, including time with the legendary SEAL Team Six. After his military career, he spent decades as a CIA contractor, competed at elite levels in endurance sports, climbed more than 50 major summits, completed extreme endurance events, authored more than 20 books, and built a life around one core idea: mission success.This episode centres around Don’s book, The Navy SEAL Playbook, a practical, no-nonsense guide to building discipline, resilience, commitment, accountability, leadership, and mental toughness in everyday life.Pete and Don unpack what it really means to train harder than the mission, why commitment matters more than motivation, how to embrace discomfort without destroying yourself, and why surrounding yourself with excellence can change the trajectory of your life.This is not just an episode about Navy SEALs. It is a conversation about how anyone can stop setting the bar low, build stronger habits, take accountability, and push closer to their full potential.Episode Highlights:15:22 — Don and Pete talk about Dick Marcinko and the origins of SEAL Team Six25:22 — Why civilian life can feel strange after being surrounded by elite performers32:58 — Forward progression and sustained movement35:20 — The four daily habits: stronger, faster, smarter, and helping others48:51 — Temporary pain versus permanent regret01:07:05 — The OODA cycle: observe, orient, decide, act01:21:38 — Commitment, accountability, and taking responsibility for the teamKey Takeaways:If you rely on motivation, you will stop when things get uncomfortable. If you rely on commitment, you keep going because the decision has already been made.Whether you are training for sport, building a business, raising a child, preparing for a presentation, or trying to rebuild your health, the principle is the same: prepare so thoroughly that the mission does not ambush you.The macro goal gives you direction. The micro goals keep you moving.Do something to make yourself stronger. Do something to make yourself faster. Do something to make yourself smarter. Do something good for somebody elseThe regret of quitting, avoiding the mission, or never finding out what you were capable of can stay with you for life.Action is how fear loses power.Purpose-driven discomfort builds resilience. Random suffering does not.About the Guest:Don Mann is a former Navy SEAL, SEAL Team Six member, CIA contractor, endurance athlete, speaker, survival expert, and bestselling author.He served 21 years in the Navy SEALs, including time with SEAL Team Six, and later spent decades working as a CIA contractor. His career has included elite military service, extreme endurance competition, mountain climbing, survival training, television work, and more than 20 published books.Don is the author of The Navy SEAL Playbook and the Thomas Crocker fiction series, including books such as Hunt the Wolf, Hunt the Scorpion, and Hunt the Leopard.His work focuses on discipline, mission success, leadership, resilience, commitment, accountability, and helping people push beyond what they think is possible.Connect with Don Mann:Website: https://www.usfrogmann.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/us_frogmann/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/don-mann-6b056818b/Books: https://www.amazon.com/stores/author/B003O83BI8This episode is brought to you by Jaca Rare Sugar.Jaca is a revolutionary, rare sugar called allulose with 0 net carbs, 0 glycemic index (diabetic & keto friendly), and 90% fewer calories than sugar.

Precision Health, DNA, ADHD, and Learning How You’re Really Wired with Len May
In this episode of the Super Self Podcast, Pete Ferrari sits down with Len May, founder and creator of EndoDNA, a patented DNA-to-protocol platform focused on precision health.This conversation dives into what it really means to understand your body at a deeper level. Len breaks down how DNA, biomarkers, epigenetics, lifestyle, nutrition, sleep, stress, and neurochemistry all play a role in the way we feel, think, perform, recover, and age.Pete and Len also get into Len’s personal story: being diagnosed with ADD as a child, feeling like he was broken, discovering that he was simply wired differently, and eventually turning that understanding into his book, Jack of All Trades, Master of Some. Len explains how ADHD can be a superpower when it is understood, structured, and channeled properly.This episode is a powerful conversation about self-awareness, instinct, healthspan, precision medicine, and why the more you know about yourself, the better you can navigate your life.Episode Highlights:06:15 — DNA explained as a circuit breaker box15:04 — Why personalised protocols matter23:55 — Creating a way for practitioners to ask DNA questions directly28:59 — Neurodiversity, billionaires, ADHD, and modern genius31:29 — ADHD, dopamine, distraction, and “scroll moments”38:29 — Gut instinct, neurochemistry, and the gut-brain connection48:44 — Healthspan versus lifespan51:21 — Why 60 today is not the same as 60 in previous generationsKey Takeaways:Precision health is about treating the individual, not the average personYour DNA is like the GPS of your lifeSymptoms are not always the root problem. For example, joint pain may be treated directly, but the root issue could involve stress, poor sleep, inflammation, hormone changes, or an immune response. Precision health asks the deeper question: what is causing this?Doctors need better tools, not more guessworkADHD does not mean broken. ADHD can be a superpower with systems and guardrailsSelf-awareness helps you lean into your strengths and account for your vulnerabilities.Listen to your instincts.Healthspan matters more than lifespanAbout the Guest:Len May is a global speaker, entrepreneur, author, and recognized authority in personalized medicine, genetics, endocannabinoid science, and human optimization. He is the CEO and Co-Founder of EndoDNA, where he is helping pioneer precision health through genomics and AI. EndoDNA’s patented DNA-to-protocol platform supports personalized wellness protocols across areas like hormone health, longevity, cognition, and nutrition.Len’s work is also deeply personal. Diagnosed with ADHD as a child, he spent years believing his brain was broken before discovering that it was simply wired differently. That realization shaped his work around genetics, dopamine, flow states, and personalized systems for high-performing, multi-passionate people.He is the author of Jack of All Trades and Master of Some, a book exploring how ADD, curiosity, and diverse talents can become strengths rather than liabilities. He also hosts the podcast Everything Is Personal, where he speaks with leaders across science, wellness, culture, and creativity.His core message: your brain isn’t broken. It’s wired differently—and when you learn to work with it, everything changes.Connect with Len May:Website: https://www.endocannahealth.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/len.mayYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnAT1PJgjSYFwL7hAtnJUngInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/lenmaydna/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lenmay/This episode is brought to you by Jaca Rare Sugar.Jaca is a revolutionary, rare sugar called allulose with 0 net carbs, 0 glycemic index (diabetic & keto friendly), and 90% fewer calories than sugar.

How to Confidently Outsmart Big Food and Navigate the Grocery Store with Julie Ruelle, RD
In this episode of the Super Self Podcast, Pete Ferrari sits down with Julie Ruelle, a registered dietitian with over 20 years of experience and the U.S. nutrition lead for Go Coco, a food-scanning app designed to help people make more informed choices at the grocery store.Together, Pete and Julie break down why nutrition feels more confusing than ever, how food labels can be misleading, and why ultra-processed foods are such a major issue in the modern American diet. Julie explains the difference between processed and ultra-processed foods, how added sugars hide under dozens of names, and why “healthy” marketing claims are not always what they seem.This conversation is not about fear, perfection, or restriction. It is about awareness, better choices, and using simple tools to take back control of what you and your family are eating.Episode Highlights:03:38 — Why nutrition feels more confusing than ever09:03 — Processed vs. ultra-processed foods explained19:11 — Food dyes, children’s behavior, and the mental health connection22:54 — How sugar hides on food labels under different names36:28 — How to eat healthier without breaking the grocery budget40:16 — The “healthy smoothie” trap and why health halos can be misleading43:42 — Heart healthy, fat free, sugar free, and other food marketing myths49:40 — How quickly people may start feeling better after improving food choices52:48 — Why consistency matters more than perfectionKey Takeaways:Nutrition does not need to be complicated, but the food industry has made it confusing.Processed and ultra-processed foods are not the same thing.Food labels are designed to sell, not necessarily to educate. Terms like “heart healthy,” “low fat,” “sugar free,” or “natural” can create a health halo.Instead of overhauling everything at once, Julie recommends starting with one simple change, such as improving your morning coffee, swapping a breakfast item, or choosing a less processed version of something you already eat.Healthy eating does not have to mean expensive eating.Eat the natural rainbow.About the Guest:Julie Ruelle is a registered dietitian with over 20 years of experience in nutrition, clinical health, and food education. She now leads nutrition in the U.S. for Go Coco, an app designed to help people cut through misleading food marketing and make more informed decisions at the grocery store.Her approach is simple, practical, and science-backed: no fear mongering, no food guilt, and no gimmicks.

Midlife Transformation, Endurance, and Building a Life That Still Has More to Give with Jeff Weiss
In this episode of the Super Self Podcast, Pete sits down with Jeff Weiss, award-winning author of Racing Against Time, endurance athlete, and C-suite executive whose professional journey includes helping build a company that was acquired for $3 billion.Jeff’s story is a powerful reminder that midlife is not the beginning of decline. For Jeff, the shift started at 48 years old, when he ran his first 10K after realising that “later” was no longer something he could keep putting off. That first race eventually led to marathons, Ironman races, and even a 72-mile ultra marathon around Lake Tahoe.But this conversation is about more than fitness.Pete and Jeff dive deep into the connection between physical discipline, professional performance, resilience, and the way exercise can shape how we show up in business, leadership, family, and life.Jeff shares how endurance training helped him develop the grit, focus, and consistency that also supported his startup journey, proving that the lessons we learn through the body often carry directly into the boardroom.This episode is for anyone in midlife who thinks they may have missed the window. Jeff’s message is clear: you can start now.Episode Highlights:05:43 – Why making a conscious decision is the first step toward transformation12:56 – How endurance training builds grit and resilience17:19 – Why fitness is directly tied to stress management and mental clarity26:37 – Finding the kind of exercise you will actually stick with33:05 – How your personal health impacts the people around you35:06 – Why midlife can open up new horizons instead of narrowing them42:53 – Finding a gym or fitness environment you actually enjoy44:29 – How fitness becomes a habit instead of a daily negotiation46:17 – Small steps, momentum, and building a lifestyle49:20 – Why Japan and the Tokyo Marathon left such a strong impressionKey Takeaways:Midlife transformation is possible, but it starts with a decision. You do not need to start young, start perfectly, or start with a huge goal. You just need to start.Exercise improves energy, focus, emotional regulation, resilience, and the ability to stay sharp under pressure. The way you train your body affects the way you lead, think, respond, and perform.Races, long runs, and endurance events teach people how to handle discomfort, setbacks, frustration, and failure without catastrophic consequences.Don’t let perfection stop progress. Start where you are. Do what you can. Build consistency first.When you feel better physically, you often become more patient, more present, more grounded, and more resilient.Longevity matters, but quality of life matters more.About the Guest:Jeff Weiss is an award-winning author, endurance athlete, and business leader whose career includes serving in the C-suite of a company that was acquired for $3 billion.He began his endurance journey at 48 years old with his first 10K, later progressing to marathons, Ironman races, and ultra endurance events. His book, Racing Against Time, explores transformation in midlife and the powerful connection between fitness, resilience, purpose, and personal reinvention.Jeff is also the author of I Am My Brother’s Keeper and Fighting Back.Connect with Jeff Weiss:Website: https://www.jeffreyweissauthor.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeffrey-l-weiss/Books:Racing against TimeFighting BackI Am My Brother's KeeperRelationship Investing: Stock Market Therapy for Your MoneyThis episode is brought to you by Jaca Rare Sugar.Jaca is a revolutionary, rare sugar called allulose with 0 net carbs, 0 glycemic index (diabetic & keto friendly), and 90% fewer calories than sugar.
