    Peptides, Hormones, and the System Keeping You Sick with Dr. Mark Sherwood

    What if more energy, better health, and greater vitality are closer than you think? In this episode, Dan Metcalfe sit down with Dr. Mark Sherwood, Founder and CEO of the Functional Medical Institute, to discuss peptides, hormones, metabolic health, weight loss, longevity, functional medicine, hormone replacement therapy, GLP-1s, testosterone, menopause, and the lifestyle habits that shape your health. We explore why chronic illness is so common, what peptides actually do, how hormones affect everything from energy to confidence, and why lasting wellness goes beyond treating symptoms. Dr. Mark shares practical insights on movement, nutrition, stress management, body composition, hormone optimization, and creating a personalized approach to better health and longevity. We also dive into peptides and GLP-1 medications, separating hype from reality and discussing how these tools can support health when paired with strong lifestyle foundations, proper nutrition, and muscle preservation.

    The Truth About Red Light Therapy: What Actually Works And What Doesn't with Penny Foskaris

    Real healing starts when you give your body what actually works. In this episode, Dan Metcalfe connects with Penny Foskaris, CEO and Founder of Foskaris Wellness and Red Light Pro Devices, to cut through the noise and expose the truth behind red light therapy.   Not all red lights are equal. Power, proximity, and wavelength determine results and most devices fall short. Penny breaks down how true red light therapy supports cellular energy, reduces inflammation, and helps the body recover faster. They get practical to what works, what doesn’t, and how to avoid wasting time on weak, ineffective tools. From pain relief to faster recovery and fat loss support, the results are real but only when done right. This is about creating the right environment for your body to perform and heal. Rethink what you’ve been told because when you get this right, everything else improves. Tune in to the full episode of Born SuperHuman: The Truth About Red Light Therapy: What Actually Works And What Doesn't with Penny Foskaris. About Penny Foskaris Penny Foskaris is the CEO and Founder of Foskaris Wellness and Red Light Pro Devices, one of the most powerful and versatile lines of red and near-infrared light therapy systems on the market. Her devices are trusted by clinics, wellness centers, and practitioners across the U.S. to deliver fast, measurable results from pain relief in as little as 15 minutes to accelerated recovery, non-invasive fat loss, and collagen production. Penny developed her technology specifically to bridge the gap between clinical-grade performance and accessible, flexible use. Her Red Light Hat, featuring 900 LEDs across a 600nm–940nm spectrum, has shown results in cognitive support, memory improvement, and hair regrowth. She is the practitioner's practitioner: results-driven, clinically tested, and relentlessly focused on what red light therapy can actually deliver.  Website: https://pennyfoskaris.com/  IG: https://www.instagram.com/foskariswellness/  FB: https://www.facebook.com/foskariswellness/  LI: https://www.linkedin.com/in/pennyfoskaris/?isSelfProfile=false  TitTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@pennyfoskaris  YT: https://www.youtube.com/@pennyfoskaris   About Dan Metcalfe Dan Metcalfe is the founder and host of Born SuperHuman and a pioneer in human performance.

    Whatever You Resist Persists: Judy Cage on Recovery, Acceptance, and True Happiness

    You already have the power to move forward. When you stop fighting, everything starts to shift. In this episode, Dan Metcalfe sits down with Judy Cage and reexamines what real transformation actually means. After a life-altering stroke, Judy redefined how she sees pain, pressure, and purpose.  Here’s the truth: whatever you resist persists. The shift isn’t in forcing change. It’s in accepting what is, then choosing how to move forward. They cut through the noise which are no fake positivity, no shortcuts. Just real mindset work using frustration as fuel, protecting your energy, and stepping out of autopilot before life forces you to. Rethink everything you’ve been holding onto because the moment you stop fighting is the moment things finally change. Tune in the full episode of Born SuperHuman: Whatever You Resist Persists: Judy Cage on Recovery, Acceptance, and True Happiness. About Judy Cage Judy Cage is an author, speaker, and stroke survivor whose story redefines what recovery truly looks like. In January 2019, she suffered a massive hemorrhagic stroke, the result of a rare cerebrovascular disorder called Moyamoya, that left her paralyzed on her left side, unable to walk, and fighting to reclaim every function she had taken for granted. Rather than accept the limitations placed on her, Judy chose radical acceptance and relentless forward motion, walking out of the hospital within two months and returning to work within six.  IG: https://www.instagram.com/judykimcagetheauthorpage/  About Dan Metcalfe Dan Metcalfe is the founder and host of Born SuperHuman and a pioneer in human performance.

    Marine Grit: Build Discipline and Win at Life with Gunnery Sergeant -Dr. Gary Slater

    Discipline isn't something you find. It gets built into you and nobody builds it quite like the United States Marine Corps. In this episode, Dan Metcalfe sits down with Gunnery Sergeant Dr. Gary Slater, a man who entered the Marine Corps as a private and left as one of the most respected leaders in the 3rd Marine Division. His principles for winning at life, built on character over money, consistency over convenience, and legacy over ego, are the kind of foundation most people spend decades wishing someone had handed them earlier. Failure is the doorstep to your next level, but only if you write it down, break it apart, and refuse to repeat it. Gary never accepted a single award before his Marines received theirs first. He mentors men the system has written off. That's not a résumé, that's a life lived in full service. If you've been telling yourself you're not built for the next level, this conversation is your correction. Tune in to the full episode of Born SuperHuman: Marine Grit: Build Discipline and Win at Life with Gunnery Sergeant -Dr. Gary Slater. About Gunnery Sergeant Dr. Gary Slater Gunnery Sergeant Dr. Gary Slater is a retired United States Marine Corps leader, educator, mentor, and community servant. Rising from private to Gunnery Sergeant in the 3rd Marine Regiment, 3rd Marine Division, Gary served as a drill instructor at Parris Island, series Gunnery Sergeant, and acting First Sergeant. After retiring from the Corps, he earned his doctorate and continued his mission in civilian life mentoring youth, feeding the homeless, leading workforce development programs, and building the character-first philosophy he spent decades refining on the battlefield.

    Peptides, Fat Loss, and Healing Your Body with Lisa Levy

    Most people chasing fat loss are solving the wrong problem. In this episode, Dan Metcalfe chats with Lisa Levy who cuts through the noise on peptides, fat loss, and real healing. Lisa is producing results. That’s why her message matters. We simplify peptides: signaling molecules that mirror what your body already makes like keys that activate fat loss, recovery, and performance.  The real shift? Body composition over scale weight. If you lose muscle, you slow your metabolism. Lisa breaks down metabolic dysfunction, glucose handling, and why building lean mass is non‑negotiable. She also addresses the confusion about FDA changes, sourcing, and safety so you can think clearly and act with intention. Change how you approach fat loss and healing so you can show up at your highest level, consistently.
