That’s what high performance is to me, the ability to adapt rapidly so you can achieve your potential. There are five key pillars to creating the conditions for adaptability: sleep, exercise, mental resilience, nutrition, and community/relationships.” - Dr Erik Korem “I maybe have a different concept on leadership. To me, leading is a verb. If you’re leading, you’re a leader. If you’re swimming you’re a swimmer, if you’re driving you’re a driver. If you’re leading you’re by definition a leader. I define leading as being looked to in a particular moment to make a decision or perform an action based on your unique gifts and abilities. So by that definition, everybody is a leader. All rank and role really describe is how many people are hoping you get it right when it’s your turn to wear the weight.” - Clint Bruce

13:23: “If we're super stressed, we're not eating very well, we eat poorly, we take a lot of medications, alcohol, drugs, that's gonna affect intestinal permeability to where it can't ward off what these pathogens and molds and mycotoxins and things that potentially would be blocked and not allowed through inside.”
14:21: “It's this interesting interplay between our environment, our health, our digestion, our intestines, and the health of the gut.”
