DIVING INTO THE CONVERSATION

Podcasting with Purpose

Dr. Josh explains how podcasting became both a passion and a platform. With his own show “The Human Powered Life Podcast” (formerly Lifestyle Locker Radio), he shares how podcasting creates long-form educational content that lets voices in natural health rise above the noise of mainstream media. This is about real conversations, real transformation, and giving people power over their own health.

The Rise of Peptides

One of the hottest trends in health and wellness, peptides were a major focus of this episode. Dr. Josh breaks down the difference between therapeutic injectables like Ozempic and the bioactive precision peptides he uses in his practice. These orally taken nutraceuticals are designed to work with your body, not against it, boosting fat loss, muscle retention, and performance without the side effects of synthetic solutions. As Dr. Josh says, they’re not a shortcut; they’re a strategic enhancer when paired with real lifestyle changes.

Living the “Hard” Life

Both Jim and Josh share deep takeaways from their experiences with Andy Frisella’s 75 Hard and Live Hard programs. They talk about discipline, structure, and why doing hard things daily makes you mentally unshakable. Josh shares how this challenge shifted not just his health, but his relationships and mindset. It’s not about perfection; it’s about proving to yourself what you’re capable of.

Why Freedom Still Matters

Beyond chiropractic, this conversation leans into powerful values: freedom of speech, medical freedom, and the right to question. Dr. Josh emphasizes the need for platforms like Chiro Hustle to continue to amplify voices that challenge the status quo. Whether it’s questioning censorship or promoting proactive health, these conversations are essential.

CLOSING THOUGHT

Dr. Josh’s story reminds us that every challenge is a chance to grow. Whether it’s running an ultramarathon, launching a podcast, or standing up for freedom, you’re more capable than you think.
