    How I Stop Overthinking and Take Back Control of My Inner Voice | Gabby Reece

    Some days you haven't trained, haven't pushed, and still end the day wired and exhausted. What if the biggest drain on your energy is the voice in your head you keep mistaking for yourself? In this solo episode, I'm talking about the inner voice, the one that is you and isn't you. It's built to keep us safe, but in modern life it misfires constantly and drains energy meant for our people, our work, and our training. We cover the voices in your head, Byron Katie's four questions, and tools to separate a thought from a decision. This week, swap "I'm going to fail" for "I'm having the thought that I'm going to fail." Name it, check the facts, then choose your next move. What we explore: - Why your inner critic misfires in modern life. - How to spot borrowed voices from parents and culture. - What Byron Katie's four questions reveal about your stories. - Why feeling anxious isn't the same as having anxiety. - How grounding and journaling stop a thought spiral. The Gabby Reece Show This is where I have real conversations with the people I find most worth listening to: scientists, athletes, coaches, parents, and thinkers who are doing the hard work of building a life that holds up over time. No hacks. No quick fixes. Just honest, practical conversations about performance, longevity, relationships, and what it actually takes to show up well at every age. If you are here, you probably already know that health is not a destination. It is how you live. I am glad you are along for it.

    How to Release Tension, Improve Mobility & Regulate Your Nervous System | Lauren Roxburgh

    You can be strong, disciplined, and still spend every hour of the day braced for impact. What if the tightness you keep stretching isn't a mobility problem at all, but stress your body was never meant to carry? Lauren Roxburgh, a fascia and body alignment expert I've known for nearly 13 years. She is known for her work on fascia, the nervous system, and body intelligence. We talk about why "working in" matters as much as working out, where stress gets stuck in the body, and why fascia may be the missing link between tension, pain, and how you age. Start with five minutes tomorrow morning: get outside, take a few deep sighs, and move before the day pulls at you. Strength gets built on that foundation, not in place of it. What we explore: - Why "working in" balances your training and calms a wired-and-tired nervous system. - What fascia is, and why stretching alone misses it. - How the physiological sigh resets stress and improves sleep. - Why pelvic floor tension isn't just about childbirth. - How to heal old injuries with whole-body alignment.

    How I Handle Stress: 5 Simple Ways to Calm Your Nervous System | Gabby Reece

    I'm stoic by nature, yet this week my kids had me in tears twice and fantasizing about walking out the door. Being tired and stressed is the worst combination, and since your brain can't feel gratitude and fear at the same time, the real test is pulling the levers you already have when it counts. Today it's just me, sharing a solo episode on stress management from two of the hardest days I've had in a while, between a tense call with Laird while he's traveling and real friction with my kids. I talk about why training and sleep are my first line of defense, how a five-minute silent meditation and simple breathwork calm my nervous system, and why gratitude and anxiety can't share the same space. Pick one lever this week, like getting to bed earlier or breathing with a longer exhale. Then use it the next time things get heated. What we explore: - Why training and sleep are the best stress management tools. - How a five-minute silent meditation resets your mood. - Why crying can be a healthy emotional release. - How box breathing down-regulates your nervous system fast. - Why gratitude and anxiety can't coexist in the brain.

    How I Keep Muscle at 56: Protein, Strength Training & Hormones | Gabby Reece

    After 50, your body starts to melt unless you give it a reason not to. It isn't rocket science, just the basics we tend to skip, done consistently. Today it's just me, answering the question I get asked more than any other: how do I keep muscle at 56? I'm a former professional volleyball player, and I've carried lean muscle since I was 18 that I had to work hard to build and now work to maintain. We talk about getting your hormones and thyroid checked, leading every meal with protein, lifting three days a week, and protecting your sleep. Get the basics right before you reach for the sexy levers like creatine and amino acids. This week, book your blood work, put protein first on your plate, and aim to be in bed by 10. What we explore: - Why bloodwork, HRT, and thyroid health come first. - How to lead with protein without chasing gram targets. - Why lifting three days a week protects muscle and bone density. - What sleep has to do with muscle recovery after 50. - Why your body changes week to week, and why that's okay.

    How Do You Turn Grief & Trauma Into Forgiveness, Healing & Hope After Unimaginable Loss? | Maoz Inon

    Forgiveness might be the most underrated health practice we have. What does it take to choose it after losing both of your parents in a single morning? Maoz Inon is an Israeli peace activist, Co-CEO of InterAct International, and co-author of the New York Times bestseller The Future Is Peace. We talk about rejecting revenge, radical forgiveness, and his five-step framework for turning a dream into action. Forgiveness is how you stop living the life someone else chose for you. Hope is an action, so next time you feel hurt, ask what you want to build with it, not who to blame. What we explore: - How Maoz and his family chose to reject revenge after losing their parents. - Why forgiveness is personal freedom, and how to practice it when betrayal runs deep. - What a farmer father's daily catastrophes taught about agency and rebuilding. - How a 5-step framework turns hope into action: dream, values, coalition, roadmap, execution. - Why vulnerability and storytelling open doors that arguing never will Chapters: 00:00 Why His Family Refused Revenge 06:48 A Farmer's Rule for Facing Any Catastrophe 13:22 The Star Vision That Became a 5-Step Plan 20:42 How Ignorance Turns Into Fear and Hate 30:02 Radical Forgiveness and How Sharing Pain Heals 42:02 How Europe Turned Enemies Into Partners 51:24 We're Always 2 Weeks Away From Peace 56:12 How Vulnerability Disarms a Hostile Room About Maoz Inon:  Maoz Inon is an Israeli peace activist, entrepreneur, and co-CEO of InterAct International, a nonprofit dedicated to Middle East peace.

    SKIN LONGEVITY SCIENTIST: How to Slow Skin Aging From the Inside Out | Dr. Carolina Reis Oliveira

    Aging skin isn't a cosmetic problem or a beauty routine. It's a biology problem and a framework for treating your skin as part of your health span. Dr. Carolina Reis Oliveira is an immunologist, PhD, and co-founder of OneSkin, the biotech company that spent five years screening over 900 peptides to target skin aging at the cellular level. We talked about why roughly 70 to 80 percent of skin aging is within your control, how senescent "zombie" cells quietly degrade collagen and drive inflammation, and why the skin on your body, not just your face, deserves real attention. Aging well is something you get to build, not just brace for. What we explore: - Why lifestyle, not genetics, drives most skin aging. - How senescent "zombie" cells shut down collagen and spread inflammation. - Why a stronger skin barrier lowers inflammation in your blood. - What changes at the midlife density shift, and how to support your skin through it. - How to use sunscreen, vitamin C, and retinoids without wrecking your barrier. Chapters: 00:00 4 Women Scientists Who Created OneSkin 02:38 Why Most Anti-Aging Products Don't Work 04:51 What Causes Skin Aging and How Zombie Cells Destroy Collagen 06:47 The Peptide That Reversed Skin Age 2.5 Years 10:03 4 Habits That Age Your Skin Fastest 11:55 Why Your Skin Is a Longevity Organ 14:48 How Body Lotion Lowers Inflammation Markers 16:48 Why Estrogen Loss Triggers Dark Spots 19:13 How to Choose a Safe Mineral Sunscreen 24:20 Vitamin C and Retinoids Without Wrecking Your Skin 31:53 The Density Shift and How to Rebuild Collagen in Midlife 39:11 Do Copper Peptides Actually Build Collagen? 41:32 Does Red Light Boost Your Skincare? 43:13 Why Your Lips Age Faster Than Your Face 45:26 Your Skin Microbiome and Why Not to Over-Strip 49:23 Ditching Makeup for Healthy Skin 52:12 A Scientist's Honest Take on Lasers and Fillers About Dr. Carolina Reis Oliveira Dr. Carolina Reis Oliveira a PhD in immunology and stem cell biology and is a co-founder and CEO of OneSkin. Her work centers on measuring the biological age of skin and developing peptides that target aging at the cellular level rather than masking its symptoms. She's a rare voice bringing rigorous, third-party-tested science to a category better known for inflated claims.

    Gabby Reece: What I Wish I Knew at 40 About Health, Strength & Aging

    Nobody tells you that your 40s are the decade you are quietly building your 50s and 60s in.  This one is just me, no guest, no protocol stack, just what actually mattered in mine and what I would hand to anyone walking into that decade with kids, work, and a body that has started asking for different inputs. The physical part is simpler than people make it. A few genuinely heavy days a week, an honest look at what the nightly drink is costing you, and a blood panel before perimenopause makes that decision for you. The harder part is the one nobody puts on the calendar. We wear exhaustion like proof that we are dependable, and the ground that belongs only to us shrinks a little every year. I talk about how I protected mine when my workouts were down to 12 minutes. What we explore: - How hypertrophy cluster training builds real strength in 20 minutes. - Why the nightly drink is costing you sleep, energy, and gut health. - What a blood panel and hormone baseline in your 40s tell you about perimenopause. - How to say no without explaining yourself. - Why protecting your personal real estate keeps you from disappearing into your roles. The Gabby Reece Show This is where I have real conversations with the people I find most worth listening to: scientists, athletes, coaches, parents, and thinkers who are doing the hard work of building a life that holds up over time.
