660: How to Have More Energy with Dave Asprey

We've all been taught that managing our time is one of the keys to being productive and achieving our goals. But what if we've been focusing on the wrong thing? The reality is, it doesn't matter how much time you have if you're constantly exhausted, struggling to focus, or don't have the physical and mental energy to make the most of it. Today, I'm joined by my good friend Dave Asprey, the man widely known as the father of biohacking. In his twenties, Dave weighed over 300 pounds and struggled with chronic fatigue, brain fog, and numerous health problems. After spending more than $2.5 million experimenting with ways to optimize his health, he transformed his body and mind, lost 100 pounds, and helped pioneer what has become a global biohacking movement. He's also a NYT bestselling author, entrepreneur, and someone I've known and learned from for over a decade. In our conversation, Dave challenges the conventional wisdom around productivity and explains why managing your energy is far more important than managing your time. We explore how your daily habits influence your physical and mental performance, why your body has a greater impact on your thoughts and emotions than you might realize, and how making a few intentional changes can help you feel better, accomplish more, and show up as your best self for the people who matter most.
