    Why High Performers Feel "Off" - Even When Life Is Working | J.H. Tepley

    Most high performers aren't tired, lazy, or broken. They're internally fragmented. In this episode of the Superhuman Podcast, I sit down with J.H. Tepley - bestselling author and founder of the Akari Temple - to explore why so many driven men feel off, drained, or disconnected even when their life looks successful on paper. This conversation goes far beyond biology, supplements, and productivity hacks. We break down: Why discipline, ambition, and intuition often fight each other The hidden "drag" that drains energy and momentum Trauma, subconscious programming, and energy leaks most men never see The four levels of the mind - and how misalignment creates burnout Why manifestation fails when your internal signal cancels itself out What real sovereignty and inner alignment actually feel like If you've optimized your body, habits, and routines - but still feel like something is missing - this episode will explain why. This isn't motivation. It's a system reset.

    This App Pays You to Explore the Real World | Alexandre Ouaknine

    In this episode of the Superhuman Podcast, I sit down with Alexander, the creator of Ulys Quest - a first-of-its-kind "travel-to-earn" platform that combines real-world exploration with geospatial tech, blockchain rewards, and gamification. Alexander spent nearly 30 years in IT and then went all-in building something most people thought was impossible: a living digital treasure hunt where you visit landmarks, confirm your presence, and earn rewards. We talk about the reality of being "too old" for corporate work, what it takes to build a real product (not just an MVP), and why his mission is bigger than crypto - it's about getting people back into the physical world with purpose. In this episode, we cover: The "great flattening" and why many experienced tech workers are getting pushed out How Ulys Quest works: visit → confirm → earn Why building a fully functional product matters The NFT "digital landmark" model and how it creates passive income mechanics Using AI as a real-world tour guide + route generator Why he wants this to become community-owned (DAO) The deeper mission: restoration, education, and real-world impact Links & Resources (mentioned): Ulys Quest: https://ulys.site

    Solving the Housing Crisis One Lot at a Time | Jared Jones

    Jared Jones is the Co-Founder of Middle Housing Partners and a veteran micro-developer who has spent over a decade working at the front lines of the housing crisis in California. Specializing in SB9, ADUs, and neighborhood-scale infill projects, Jared focuses on mission-driven development that restores affordability, strengthens communities, and brings people back to the neighborhoods they grew up in. He is also an EO (Entrepreneurs' Organization) leader and a respected voice in small-scale development, strategic planning, and innovative build-to-rent models. What We Discuss Why big developers won't fix the housing crisis: Jared explains why national homebuilders alone can't solve the problem and how small, local developers are the real lever for change. Micro-development as a scalable solution: How housing can realistically be rebuilt one lot, one project, one family at a time, and why that approach actually scales. Pushing through pain as a competitive advantage: Why the difficulty of permitting, regulation, and community resistance is a feature, not a flaw, and how persistence compounds over time. A real-world project restoring affordability: Jared walks through a Riverside, CA project that adds multiple units to an existing lot, cutting housing costs dramatically while preserving neighborhood character. The future of middle housing: What the next 5–10 years could look like if cities embrace density, pre-approved plans, and a mindset shift away from NIMBYism toward stronger communities.

    The Truth About Grass-Fed Meat & Antibiotics | Mike Salguero

    Mike Salguero is the Founder & CEO of ButcherBox, the subscription-based meat company that grew from a Kickstarter into a bootstrapped nine-figure brand. In this episode, Mike breaks down what actually happens in the modern meat system (from pasture to feedlots), why antibiotics/hormones + confinement change everything, and how to choose higher-quality meat (even if you don't use a delivery service). What's We Discuss How ButcherBox started: Mike and his wife were doing elimination diets (Whole30/AIP) to manage autoimmune symptoms, and the hunt for truly grass-fed beef became the spark that led to ButcherBox. Grass-fed vs. conventional beef (the real pipeline): Most cattle start on pasture, but ~97% end up in feedlots for "finishing" on grain to maximize fat/marbling and speed of weight gain. Why antibiotics changed the entire meat industry: Antibiotics made animals more "feed efficient," which enabled tighter confinement (CAFOs), and ultimately shifted incentives toward cheap mass production. Nutrient density is the next frontier: Mike predicts the next 5–10 years will focus more on micronutrient density differences based on how the animal was raised, not just "protein and fat." What to look for when buying meat: Prioritize no antibiotics/hormones, pasture-raised, and (when possible) buying directly from a trusted farmer. For seafood: prioritize wild-caught. For pork: look for crate-free standards.
