About this episode

This week, I am excited to have Layne Norton with me on the podcast. Layne has been a huge inspiration and a source of knowledge since my health and fitness journey began. After years of study and research, he obtained a PhD in nutritional sciences, and his extensive knowledge is evident in our conversation. We'll be delving into topics ranging from the science and psychology of pain to navigating misinformation to the science behind our eating habits. You're bound to come away from this episode smarter than before.
