Our team thought it was a great idea to start rewinding previous (but timely) episodes of our show during the times that Mista Yu is away from the microphone. All of these beautiful Blasts from the Past were previously broadcast, but we are sharing them with you at a time when you might need them most. Hope you enjoy the review!

What if your body has been whispering the answers all along? We sit down with nutritionist Alana Boneman to rethink health after 30, from the food on your plate to the stress you carry into sleep. Alana shares a grounded, no-restriction approach that replaces diet fads with durable habits: a simple plate framework, seasonal eating, and the courage to listen when your body signals something’s off.

We dig into why weight is often a symptom—not the root cause—and how to shift your “set point” with small, consistent changes. Alana explains how ultra-palatable foods and savvy marketing hijack appetites, making vegetables and fiber-rich whole foods non-negotiable for gut health, hormones, and steady mood. For women, she unpacks the monthly and midlife transitions that magnify stress and sleep debt, and she offers realistic tools to feel well across cycles, fertility, perimenopause, and menopause.

This conversation gets personal too: panic attacks, morning light, mindset work, and the discipline to build routines that actually fit real life. We trade notes on podcasting’s emotional toll, creative energy, and staying purpose-driven when progress dips. You’ll hear cultural texture—from Germany’s organized cadence and sauerkraut staples to Australia’s rich food mix and legendary coffee—that shows how environment shapes health choices.

A childhood spent sweeping mats and teaching adults at age ten forged a voice that wouldn’t wait its turn. Then came the hard lefts: a high school spiral, a grandmother who parked at a recruiter’s office and wouldn’t budge, a Navy path that led to serving chaplains with the Marines, and a blast in Iraq that changed everything. JR Spear came home with scars, a renewed faith, and a determination to build a life that served his family and his calling.

We dig into how he rebuilt from zero as a first-time business owner, failing fast until a mentor handed him a simple blueprint: run micro one-day events, deliver real value, and make clear tiered offers. One workshop closed over $270,000 in contracts and flipped his beliefs about sales and structure. From there he scaled boot camps across multiple states without paid ads, relying on consistent events and a follow-up system that prioritized people over pressure. JR breaks down the inputs that matter—offer design, event flow, retention vs acquisition cadence—and how to keep momentum when you don’t have a big audience.

Equally powerful is his approach to relationships. Networking, he says, isn’t a hunt, it’s hospitality. Bring three gifts to every conversation: a referral, a resource, or an invite. That simple practice turns strangers into friends and friends into partners. Threaded through it all is his creed—commitment, resilience, excellence, execution, discipline—and a faith that reshaped his marriage, leadership, and sense of peace. If you’re ready to grow with integrity, this story gives you a playbook for micro events, service-first networking, and staying grounded when success arrives.

If this conversation sparked an idea, follow and share the show with a friend, and leave a quick review to help others find it. Your support helps us bring more stories and practical playbooks to your feed.
