Stronger with Don Saladino

Don is joined by nutrition and wellness experts Abbey Sharp, Jaime Schehr-Robinson, and Jordan Syatt for an honest panel discussion about diet culture, fat loss, food freedom, and sustainable health habits. Together, they break down some of the biggest misconceptions surrounding nutrition, metabolism, weight loss, emotional eating, and “all-or-nothing” fitness mindsets. The conversation explores the psychology of dieting, how social media has distorted wellness advice, and why consistency, flexibility, and self-awareness matter more than perfection. The panel also dives into calorie tracking, intuitive eating, relationship with food, body image, coaching strategies, and how to build healthier routines without obsessing over every meal.  ----------------------------- Sponsored By: Cozy Earth: 30% Off Through June 1, 2026!

Is it actually possible to prevent injuries, or is the real goal building enough strength, resilience, and capacity to better tolerate stress? Host Don Saladino is joined by an elite panel of performance experts: Jordan Shallow, Charlie Weingroff, and Jordan Jiunta. Together, they unpack one of the most misunderstood concepts in fitness and sports performance: injury prevention.  The episode covers workload management, recovery culture, tissue tolerance, progressive overload, biomechanics, and why many popular “injury prevention” tools may be distracting people from the fundamentals that actually matter. The panel also explores intelligent training, movement quality, exercise skill, sprinting, walking lunges, recovery trends, and the psychology behind performance and adaptation. ----------------------------- Sponsored By: Timeline: Get 20% off Mitopure to Target Age-Related Cellular Decline and Promote Anti-Aging and Health Longevity.

Host Don Saladino sits down with psychiatrist and mental health expert Domenick ('Dom') Sportelli for a conversation on stress, motivation, dopamine, and the psychology of consistency. Dr. Sportelli breaks down why so many people struggle with burnout, distraction, and chronic stress, and how modern habits are rewiring the brain for quick dopamine hits instead of long-term resilience. Together, they explore the neuroscience behind motivation, discomfort tolerance, social connection, and identity, along with practical strategies anyone can implement immediately. The episode also dives into anxiety, overwork culture, emotional avoidance, and why true mental strength has less to do with “grinding harder” and more to do with learning how to slow down, recover, and build healthier patterns over time. ----------------------------- Sponsored By: Timeline: Get 20% off Mitopure to Target Age-Related Cellular Decline and Promote Anti-Aging and Health Longevity.
