    In this episode, I’m talking with the founder of SISU Lifestyle, Pete Nelson II, as he shares the incredible journey of building his brand while maintaining a balanced family life. I discuss with Pete the health benefits of sauna therapy, the dynamic practice of combining saunas with cold plunges, and the crucial role of solitude and reflection for mental clarity. Pete’s story is committed to showing us all how to build a life rooted in resilience and simplicity.

    I'm deep-diving into the recent whirlwind of activity both in my personal life and at BPN. From celebrating our most successful 4th of July sale ever to gearing up for our 12th anniversary next month, there's so much to share. Firstly, a huge thank you to all our listeners and supporters for making our 4th of July sale a record-breaking success. Your love for our products fuels everything we do at BPN, and we couldn't be more grateful. Today, we'll discuss the importance of omega-3 fatty acids in our diets, inspired by the recent conversation with Max Lugavere. Plus, I'll be sharing some exciting updates on our product lineup and how your feedback is shaping our brand in 2024. On a personal note, I had the incredible opportunity to pace Sally McRae at the legendary Western States 100. The experience has left me inspired and determined to tackle the race myself one day, marking it as a major goal for the future. And of course, I can't wait to fill you in on my latest training regimen, a blend of strength training and cardiovascular conditioning that's been integrated into my workouts lately.
