You wouldn’t run a business without KPIs, so why are you running your body without them?

Data is only helpful if it leads to better decisions. In this episode, I walk through the five (5) key metrics I track which range from cardiovascular fitness to micronutrient intake, blood pressure, and sleep quality.

I also share how I spent years getting diagnostic tests (that were helpful to me at the time, but didn’t exactly induce behavioral change in my clients) and how to avoid that trap. Whether you’re an executive, entrepreneur, or just someone who wants to perform at a higher level, this episode is your cheat sheet for measurable, meaningful progress. 20 years of mistakes taught me this and I’m giving it to you in 30 minutes.

So tune in because these five are the foundation, and once they’re in place, everything else gets easier.
