  • Chef James Barry: Why Eating at Fancy Restaurants is Terrible for Your Health

    Chef James Barry: Why Eating at Fancy Restaurants is Terrible for Your Health
    Nov 7 2024
    Why do fancy restaurants fill their meals with junk oils, sugars, chemical preservatives, and worse?

    With rampant food inflation and razor thin margins, even the fanciest, most exclusive and expensive restaurants can’t resist the tendency to cut corners on ingredient quality.

    That means that no matter how much you spend on eating out - with few exceptions - you’re still getting shockingly low-quality food.

    So how do high profile celebrities and the rich and famous achieve such dramatic transformations?

    And are regular joes and janes like us actually better off without private chefs and nutritionists?

    Today we’re here with celebrity chef and entrepreneur, James Barry.

    Chef James Barry’s 20 years in the field started as a private chef cooking for billionaires, musicians, and celebrities, including Tom Cruise, George Clooney, Barbra Streisand, and John Cusack, to name a few. But it was becoming a father that forced him to go deeper in his exploration of functional food.

    As the Founder of Pluck, Chef James is the creator of a unique organ-based superfood seasoning that can be sprinkled on foods for a tasty kick that packs the nutritional punch of grass-fed liver, kidney, spleen, heart and pancreas along with organic spices.

    In this episode, you’ll discover:
    • Why the food served at fancy, expensive restaurants is so often terrible for our health
    • Simple cooking tips and techniques to make home-cooked meals more flavorful, satisfying, and nutritious
    • How to encourage picky eaters to become more adventurous by expanding their palate
    • The unexpected challenges and downsides of relying on external experts like private chefs and nutritionists
    • And much more…

  • Matt Beaudreau: How to Nurture Genius and Courage in a Habitually Compliant Population

    Matt Beaudreau: How to Nurture Genius and Courage in a Habitually Compliant Population
    Oct 24 2024

    What’s the difference between education and indoctrination?

    Is our education system broken, or is it operating as intended?

    The public school conveyor belt is a relic of the Prussian military model, designed to produce compliant workers for factories rather than sovereign thinkers with upward mobility.

    We’re left with a blindly obedient population that’s smart enough to follow orders, but not smart or courageous enough to question the status quo.

    The masses are conditioned to become habitually compliant conformists forever reliant on external authority.

    As Seth Godin writes, “To efficiently run a school, amplify fear (and destroy passion).”

    These days, educators have limited intellectual freedom to teach what they want to teach.

    In past decades, we had far less access to information or schooling, yet were far more educated. Now in the age of AI, we have access to unlimited information, but we don’t know if any of it is real or true.

    So what is the future of education?

    Our guest today is Matt Beaudreau, a former public school educator and administrator who has dedicated his career to rethinking the very foundations of our education system. Matt shares: “When I saw this system for what it was, I could no longer be a part of perpetuating it.”

    As founder of the Apogee Strong mentorship program, Matt has an unwavering commitment to empowering young people to become sovereign, self-directed learners - a radical departure from the compliance-driven model that dominates our schools.

    True education should foster creativity and critical thinking, allowing individuals to pursue their unique passions. Matt’s belief, which I share, is that genius is common, and true learning is about unlocking the innate genius in every one of us.

    In this episode, you’ll discover:

    • How to unshackle your mind from the limits of traditional schooling and cultural conditioning
    • Why modern education systems are anti-entrepreneurial and train students to be employees rather than innovators
    • How to utilize passion as a vehicle to learn how to learn
    • How to cultivate courage, foster civil discourse and intellectual flexibility to counter the polarization and echo chambers in today's society
    • The status games played by elite institutions
    • And much more…

  • Paul Millerd: Why He Blew Up His Life (and You Should, Too)

    Paul Millerd: Why He Blew Up His Life (and You Should, Too)
    Oct 10 2024
    Is your work aligned with your true calling in life? Or are you being paid to overlook your overwhelming disinterest in the work? Is your work-life driven by an illusion where the trivial is disguised as important? Tragically, this week’s guest admits, “I spent 10 years doing an enormous amount of work but feeling as if I created nothing of substance.” Most of us know the feeling, but it doesn’t have to be this way. In other words, work doesn’t have to suck. Today, I'm thrilled to have my good friend and fellow Austinite, Paul Millerd joining us on the show. Paul is a fellow former corporate consultant who has spent the past 7 years blazing an unconventional trail, leaving the rat race behind to pursue a life of creativity, curiosity, and freedom as an independent author and creator. If you’re looking to reclaim your inner ambition, as Paul writes: “The only true and worthwhile edge is deeply caring about what you do.” The real journey isn’t in indulging our desire to escape work, but in finding meaningful work that is true to our mission and purpose here on earth. In this conversation, Paul shares the raw, unfiltered story of his journey - from the uncertainty and loneliness of leaving a successful consulting career, to the unexpected joys and challenges of building a life around his curiosity and passions. We'll dive into the frameworks he's developed for discerning "good work" from "bad work," and how he's navigated the ebb and flow of creative entrepreneurship, including the decision to turn down a lucrative publishing deal. Whether you're feeling trapped in a soul-sucking job, or simply curious about what's possible when you break free of societal scripts, you're going to find an abundance of wisdom and inspiration in Paul's story. In this episode, you’ll discover: Paul's framework for differentiating between "good work," "good enough work," and "bad work," and how you can apply this to your lifeHow to find a balance between creative work and financial stabilityHow to break free of your attachment to social status, material possessions, and your identity as an “achiever”Sage advice for those who are considering leaving the traditional corporate world to pursue their passions and creative interestsHow to coexist with your doubts and fears and feelings of uncertainty (instead of numbing or running away from them)How to reclaim your ambition to pursue YOUR good workAnd much more… Read the show notes: https://fatburningman.com/paul-millerd-why-he-blew-up-his-life-and-you-should-too/ Go to https://pmillerd.com/goodwork/ to get Paul Millerd’s brand new book “Good Work: Reclaiming Your Inner Ambition.” Join the Abel James’ Substack channel: https://abeljames.substack.com/ Listen and support the show on Fountain: https://fountain.fm/show/6ZBhFATsjzIJ3QVofgOH Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/fatburningman Like the show on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/fatburningman Follow on X: https://x.com/abeljames Click here for your free Fat-Burning Kit: http://fatburningman.com/bonus Brought to you by: DS-01™ Probiotics and Prebiotics from Seed.com - Save 25% off your first month with promo code 25WILD LMNT Electrolytes from DrinkLMNT.com - Collect your FREE 8-Pack of Electrolytes with any purchase: DrinkLMNT.com/Wild
