Hi, my name is Chris Burris. I'm a longevity expert in the chief scientist at a lab focused
2
00:00:07.680 --> 00:00:13.520
on a longevity molecule. My primary focus is to help people live longer and better lives
3
00:00:13.520 --> 00:00:18.320
with science. Make sure to subscribe and share so you and your friends can live longer
4
00:00:18.320 --> 00:00:22.960
and better well, actually, so you and your friends can live beyond the norms.
5
00:00:23.760 --> 00:00:28.000
Hi and welcome to the next episode of the live beyond the norms, health and longevity podcast.
6
00:00:28.000 --> 00:00:33.440
Everyone's flying to Panama and spending tens of thousands of dollars on stem cell treatments.
7
00:00:33.440 --> 00:00:38.480
People like Tony Robbins and Joe Rogan are raving about the positive results with stem cells,
8
00:00:38.480 --> 00:00:44.480
but the cost is just too high. What if the key to your own stem cell repair is not tens of
9
00:00:44.480 --> 00:00:48.800
thousands of dollars and a trip to Panama, which I recommend, by the way, my wife is from Panama.
10
00:00:48.800 --> 00:00:54.000
Panama is absolutely amazing. But what if the answer is a simple set of pills that are a
11
00:00:54.000 --> 00:01:00.000
fraction of the cost? Our next guest, Ryan Riley, is here to save us tons of money and teach us
12
00:01:00.000 --> 00:01:05.760
about the importance of stem cells for health and longevity. A little bit about Ryan. Ryan is the
13
00:01:05.760 --> 00:01:11.920
CEO of Stimrigin and a seasoned entrepreneur with a background in digital innovation and high-growth
14
00:01:11.920 --> 00:01:18.160
leadership. Formerly, the founder and CEO of Cell Core Bio Sciences, he led the company to nearly
15
00:01:18.160 --> 00:01:25.680
50 million in revenue and a $200 million acquisition in 2022. Now, he is focused on advancing
16
00:01:25.680 --> 00:01:31.440
stem cell science through science-backed supplementation with a mission to enhance the body's natural
17
00:01:31.440 --> 00:01:36.880
repair system and redefine the future of health, longevity and human performance. Hopefully,
18
00:01:36.880 --> 00:01:41.120
we can help him with that mission in this interview today. Ryan, thank you so much for joining us.
19
00:01:41.760 --> 00:01:46.000
Oh, absolutely, Chris. Thank you so much for having me on. This is going to be a joy.
20
00:01:46.000 --> 00:01:51.920
Before we jump into your areas, areas of expertise, I want to go further back. I like to go much
21
00:01:51.920 --> 00:01:56.400
further back. What was it like growing up a little Ryan? Where did you grow up? What were your
22
00:01:56.400 --> 00:02:00.800
parents like? And if there was some event or someone you could pinpoint as the reason you would
23
00:02:00.800 --> 00:02:07.120
ultimately become a health and longevity disruptor, what or who would that be? So that's a great
24
00:02:07.120 --> 00:02:11.520
question. I wasn't expecting it. So I grew up in a little tiny town called the Ridley, California.
25
00:02:12.160 --> 00:02:17.600
Ridley, California is nestled up against the foothills of the Sierra Nevada's just south of
26
00:02:17.600 --> 00:02:25.600
Fresno and just north of Viselia in the Central Valley. My dad actually was a school teacher.
27
00:02:25.600 --> 00:02:32.160
He graduated from Ridley High, went into the service, finished at college, came back to
28
00:02:32.160 --> 00:02:37.600
Ridley and taught for 33 years. So my dad is one of those guys that is just like, let's build
29
00:02:37.600 --> 00:02:43.680
boots. We'll stay here. And so I grew up in the same room. I slept in the same room my entire
30
00:02:43.680 --> 00:02:49.680
life until I'd left home after graduating high school. This little tiny town, it's an agribusiness
31
00:02:49.680 --> 00:02:57.680
town. So I grew up in the stone fruit, peaches, plums, nectarines. There was a family friend who
32
00:02:57.680 --> 00:03:02.640
had a packing shed that my dad would actually work at in the summer so that we could go there as
33
00:03:02.640 --> 00:03:10.000
kids. I started working in a packing shed at 10 and 11 just early on. And that was just
34
00:03:10.640 --> 00:03:17.840
our life is living in Ridley, watching my dad coach track and football and baseball and softball
35
00:03:17.840 --> 00:03:25.600
and growing up. And I'm the baby of five. I grew up with a nickname that most people outside
36
00:03:25.600 --> 00:03:29.440
of Ridley don't know. In fact, there are people in Ridley that I think don't even know my real name.
37
00:03:30.400 --> 00:03:37.760
And so I grew up in this like little tiny town that I absolutely love. The person early on who
38
00:03:37.760 --> 00:03:44.720
was a major influence in my life was a teacher, Mike Newkirk. He became my brother and I are about
39
00:03:44.720 --> 00:03:50.960
14 months apart. And so Jared was really active in sports and water polo and volleyball. And those
40
00:03:50.960 --> 00:03:55.520
were things I always enjoyed. But because I had this little brother syndrome, I didn't want to do
41
00:03:55.520 --> 00:04:02.720
that. So I took a different path and I went into speech and debate. And Mike was my debate coach.
42
00:04:02.720 --> 00:04:12.320
And he literally challenged me in every way, shape, or form to in the form of communication and speech
43
00:04:12.320 --> 00:04:19.200
and speech preparation and debate. And regardless of like it wasn't an it wasn't an impact of longevity
44
00:04:19.280 --> 00:04:25.200
there. And I'll talk about that one in just a bit. But the influence that he had on helping me develop
45
00:04:25.840 --> 00:04:34.320
the ability to communicate ideas and thoughts in a way that could allow me to allow me to have an
46
00:04:34.320 --> 00:04:41.360
impact on people has been that's probably been the greatest skill I learned early on. I'm I actually
47
00:04:41.360 --> 00:04:50.000
grew up with dyslexia and and 80 ADD, which wasn't even known back then. Like it was called spring
48
00:04:50.000 --> 00:04:56.320
fever, right? And so I had to like being able to communicate and being able to drive. I realized
49
00:04:56.320 --> 00:05:01.120
early on that those were superpowers that I actually had because I could think of things differently
50
00:05:01.120 --> 00:05:07.120
and faster and and I could really and as as new researchers come out even in the last several
51
00:05:07.200 --> 00:05:13.600
years about dys dyslexia, I understand now why my brain worked the way it did back in high school
52
00:05:13.600 --> 00:05:19.280
and and in school and why it is a superpower that I have. So there's some interesting things that
53
00:05:19.280 --> 00:05:26.000
kind of go along along with that. But early on, the the person who really became the impactful side
54
00:05:26.000 --> 00:05:32.480
of of longevity and health and wellness, I has to be my mom. My mom currently lives with us.
55
00:05:32.480 --> 00:05:39.360
She's 87 years old. She has grandma skills and and there's a big research out on grandma skills
56
00:05:39.360 --> 00:05:45.280
that if you learn how to knit or crochet and you do these skills on a daily basis, your cognitive
57
00:05:45.280 --> 00:05:50.640
response will be maintained through through your older years. And could you have something to do
58
00:05:50.640 --> 00:05:57.200
and you have something to to accomplish? And my mom, my mom had and she had early on set
59
00:05:58.160 --> 00:06:06.800
leukemia as a child and she battled through that and she had ciliacs like so she always constantly
60
00:06:06.800 --> 00:06:13.520
struggled with health issues that I and but she never showed it like she's the most positive,
61
00:06:13.520 --> 00:06:19.040
amazing individual. She was a school teacher with my dad. She went back to teaching school when
62
00:06:19.040 --> 00:06:27.680
I was in third grade and but the model that she gave me of positive outcome, positive life,
63
00:06:27.680 --> 00:06:34.480
regardless of your circumstances and outliving all of the challenges and struggles that she had
64
00:06:34.480 --> 00:06:41.360
really became impactful to me because it gave me that ability to just have the like regardless
65
00:06:41.360 --> 00:06:44.560
of what you're struggling with regardless of your challenge. I think longevity,
66
00:06:45.280 --> 00:06:52.160
there's a lot longevity is a lot more mental than physical I personally believe. I think there's
67
00:06:52.160 --> 00:06:55.680
I think there's a good balance there but I think it leans heavily on the mental side because it has
68
00:06:55.680 --> 00:06:59.600
to be with your outlook, has to be with your positivity, has to be with the things that you're
69
00:06:59.600 --> 00:07:07.120
driving towards have to have an impact on who you are and how you see yourself. And if you can't
70
00:07:07.120 --> 00:07:13.360
visualize yourself in a positive environment 20, 50 years from now, why would you live to that?
71
00:07:15.440 --> 00:07:19.840
And I see my mom, it's probably set the greatest example of that. She's an incredible woman.
72
00:07:21.360 --> 00:07:28.080
To this 87 years old, she does not take any medication except stammergen.
73
00:07:29.040 --> 00:07:34.960
And it's so funny how she got on stammergen was incredible. Christian Drupal, who is our founder
74
00:07:34.960 --> 00:07:40.480
and chief science officer, he was at our house and we had a company retreat at my place in Idaho and
75
00:07:41.040 --> 00:07:45.760
she was kind of hovering along the she was just a little wallflower listening to everything. And
76
00:07:45.760 --> 00:07:52.080
then when everybody left, she came up to me and she's just like four foot nothing little old like
77
00:07:52.080 --> 00:07:57.040
first grade teacher, right? And she would come up to she came up to me and she's like, how come
78
00:07:57.040 --> 00:08:02.160
I'm not on stammergen? And I literally looked I literally looked at her and I was like, mom,
79
00:08:02.160 --> 00:08:09.840
I don't want you to live to be 140. Like I love you. But like come on. And so she kind of laughed
80
00:08:09.840 --> 00:08:14.720
at that. And she's on stammergen and it was interesting because two weeks later, she actually got
81
00:08:14.720 --> 00:08:18.480
the I showed her out of get on our friends and family and she got on and she's ordered it. And so
82
00:08:18.480 --> 00:08:23.680
she buys her own stammergen and she takes it. And two weeks later, she came to me after she started
83
00:08:23.680 --> 00:08:28.240
taking it. She's like, Ryan, I have to tell you something. I have been feeling a pain in my chest
84
00:08:28.240 --> 00:08:33.680
that concerned me, but I didn't want to tell anybody about it. I didn't I this was something that
85
00:08:33.680 --> 00:08:38.080
I didn't want to cause concern. And so you know, a lot of people hold that inside. They don't
86
00:08:38.160 --> 00:08:42.080
they don't share it because they don't want it be a bother, especially in my mom's position where
87
00:08:42.080 --> 00:08:47.440
she lives with us. And she's like, after two weeks of being on stammergen, that pain has gone.
88
00:08:48.400 --> 00:08:55.600
And I was like, crap, you are you are going to live to be 140. So so there's an impact there. And
89
00:08:55.600 --> 00:09:05.280
and you know, the love that I have for her, like that that little bit of of of hit of who she is.
90
00:09:06.000 --> 00:09:11.040
And the fact that stammergen had that little bit of an effect on her is is amazing. So yeah,
91
00:09:11.040 --> 00:09:14.080
87 years old. She doesn't take anything, but stammergen right now.
92
00:09:14.080 --> 00:09:18.240
And that has some parallels with some studies you're doing with heart conditions, right? So
93
00:09:18.240 --> 00:09:25.200
so I'm sure we'll get into that. Interesting. You know, so often you follow your big brother's path
94
00:09:25.200 --> 00:09:29.520
and you were like, I'm not following that path. So Jared, you go that direction. I'm going
95
00:09:29.520 --> 00:09:35.760
somewhere else. Did you go to debates? Like in high school, were you at the debate meet?
96
00:09:36.240 --> 00:09:42.480
I went to one and I left with such a headache. I never went back and I went into a thinking,
97
00:09:42.480 --> 00:09:49.120
like, I think I'm smart. And I definitely like to argue. So let me let me go into this. And
98
00:09:49.120 --> 00:09:54.720
I was not prepared for the experience really. Yeah, formal debate is formal debate is intense.
99
00:09:54.720 --> 00:10:00.880
So I did formal debate. I did Lincoln Douglas debate. I did what was called Congress,
100
00:10:00.880 --> 00:10:06.480
student congress where you actually were you had bills that you had to argue for and against
101
00:10:06.480 --> 00:10:12.160
and and get them ratified and sway other people into that conversation. My favorite thing was
102
00:10:12.160 --> 00:10:17.200
impromptu speaking. And impromptu speaking was really, really cool because what happened was
103
00:10:17.200 --> 00:10:22.960
you would walk into a room and they would give you a slip of paper with a topic on it. And you'd
104
00:10:22.960 --> 00:10:28.800
have two minutes to prepare an eight minutes speech and give it in class right then right there.
105
00:10:28.800 --> 00:10:34.240
And so it was one of the greatest experiences for me personally because it helped me organize
106
00:10:34.240 --> 00:10:38.240
my thoughts. It helped me be able to think quickly. And because I had dyslexia, I was able to do
107
00:10:38.240 --> 00:10:45.280
that really, really fast. Memorization skills for me have always been 100%. Memorization was,
108
00:10:45.280 --> 00:10:50.080
I would in fact, I remember sitting in class when you had to read out loud and I would count people
109
00:10:50.880 --> 00:10:55.760
to find out how many people would and then I would count paragraphs and I would memorize
110
00:10:55.760 --> 00:11:02.880
that paragraph. So when it came to me, I could read that paragraph out loud and not feel like I
111
00:11:02.880 --> 00:11:09.040
was a moron or an idiot. And it was it was that impact that that kind of drove like all of that
112
00:11:09.040 --> 00:11:15.440
together gave me. I think the skill set to be able to be pretty good. I was pretty good at it.
113
00:11:16.400 --> 00:11:21.840
Did you have you ever done improv like comedy improv? Yeah, I did drama. I was Danny Zuko in our
114
00:11:21.840 --> 00:11:27.680
high school production. Like I remember, yeah, I did. We did all that was, but that was my whole track
115
00:11:27.680 --> 00:11:35.680
was driving that which was really, really fun. And you didn't share your nickname?
116
00:11:36.720 --> 00:11:44.560
I didn't. No, it was, it was my nickname. So I grew up, I had really, really bad buck teeth.
117
00:11:44.560 --> 00:11:50.320
Like I had, I was in braces for like six years. And now people are in braces now for like nine
118
00:11:50.320 --> 00:11:57.120
months. I was like, we were, we were guinea pigs 50 years ago. You know what I mean? And so my
119
00:11:57.120 --> 00:12:03.440
nickname was beaver. In fact, when I graduated high school, they actually, they actually
120
00:12:04.240 --> 00:12:09.440
said Ryan Beaver Riley because they were concerned that people wouldn't know who I was.
121
00:12:10.400 --> 00:12:18.240
So yeah, well, it was beaver. I grew up beaver. Mine when I was younger was boomer. So just to share.
122
00:12:18.800 --> 00:12:25.200
So you grow up, right? Parents are teachers. And so probably had intellectual conversations all
123
00:12:25.200 --> 00:12:32.480
the time. Like all sorts of good stuff going on. You're the theater kid, right? What in some sense,
124
00:12:32.480 --> 00:12:37.200
right? The debate isn't necessarily theater in speech, not necessarily, but what, so what are
125
00:12:37.200 --> 00:12:42.240
you planning on going into in college? Like what are you shooting for? You know, what's interesting
126
00:12:42.240 --> 00:12:47.360
about that is I went into college. So I went and served a two year, like after school, I found,
127
00:12:47.360 --> 00:12:52.640
I floundered around. I went to a couple of different junior colleges in California. And I wasn't
128
00:12:52.640 --> 00:12:59.280
just, I wasn't finding myself. And I had a moment where I realized that I needed to figure myself
129
00:12:59.280 --> 00:13:03.440
out. I need to figure out who I was in the direction that I was going. And I actually had an
130
00:13:03.440 --> 00:13:08.960
opportunity to serve a two year mission for for my church. Now now I didn't go anywhere crazy,
131
00:13:08.960 --> 00:13:15.600
like Brazil or like I didn't go anywhere. I went to Pennsylvania. Like there, there you go. I,
132
00:13:16.240 --> 00:13:21.920
it was, but it was an incredible experience because I had the opportunity to learn what service
133
00:13:21.920 --> 00:13:28.880
and serving others and being, for getting about yourself for two years and just being out there
134
00:13:28.960 --> 00:13:34.800
to be in service of others really had an impact on my life. And so I came back from my mission.
135
00:13:34.800 --> 00:13:40.800
I, my wife and I, like we wrote each other, like I knew I met her before. We wrote each other for
136
00:13:40.800 --> 00:13:46.400
the two years I was gone. When I got back from my mission, like three days later, we are engaged.
137
00:13:46.400 --> 00:13:49.920
We were married a month and a half later and we've been married for over 30 years now.
138
00:13:49.920 --> 00:13:53.600
But I went into school. I got into school and the first thing my wife and I bought
139
00:13:54.560 --> 00:14:00.720
went into debt to buy was a computer. And I've always, my dad had a, had a computer. In fact,
140
00:14:00.720 --> 00:14:06.240
I have an old RadioShack TR-80 color computer too that was like plugged into our TV. I still have it
141
00:14:06.240 --> 00:14:13.280
from my dad. And that was my first computer. And I, I loved technology. I loved computers. And
142
00:14:13.280 --> 00:14:21.200
we bought a computer. I got on the internet. And this was in 90, 95, 96. So I was on the course of
143
00:14:21.200 --> 00:14:26.720
doing philosophy and political science. I fell in love with the internet and I actually dropped out
144
00:14:26.720 --> 00:14:34.320
of school, got a job in the Bay Area and started my career as my first job was at K&TV News
145
00:14:34.320 --> 00:14:40.240
Channel 11 as the webmaster. And then six months later, nine months later, I went to work for a
146
00:14:40.240 --> 00:14:46.880
company called 8x8 and I was doing everything that everything in a browser. I was building support
147
00:14:46.880 --> 00:14:53.280
infrastructure. I was building e-commerce back then, an early stage e-commerce. I was doing
148
00:14:53.280 --> 00:14:59.920
everything. And so my, literally, my career has been in a browser. My, my entire, my entire career.
149
00:14:59.920 --> 00:15:04.480
Even, even, even now doing business in today's environment, it's still all online. It's still
150
00:15:04.480 --> 00:15:11.120
all in a browser. And so I have that, I have a unique experience to have been early stage internet
151
00:15:11.120 --> 00:15:16.320
and have, have come through the entire life cycle of the internet to today. And so I've,
152
00:15:16.320 --> 00:15:22.320
everything I've done has been in a browser. So I saw an interview you did decentralized
153
00:15:22.320 --> 00:15:29.440
health podcast and there was one quote in it that you talked about finding your wife and finding
154
00:15:29.440 --> 00:15:35.840
a wife a hundred times. I think it is what I quote. Yeah. So my, a mentor of mine told me the secret
155
00:15:36.080 --> 00:15:41.440
success in marriage is to find somebody that's a thousand times better than you and then convince her
156
00:15:41.440 --> 00:15:47.600
daily that you're worth it. And, and it's the, and it's the convincing her daily that I'm worth it.
157
00:15:47.600 --> 00:15:52.960
It's, it's, I have to constantly remember that and that the beauty of this is that if you do it
158
00:15:52.960 --> 00:15:59.920
right, she feels that you're a thousand times better than her and she's convincing me daily that
159
00:15:59.920 --> 00:16:05.360
she's worth it. And so, and it's, it's work. Um, we've been married, we have, we have five kids,
160
00:16:06.480 --> 00:16:11.200
we've been married over 30 years. Same as you grew up, right? So you said you had, did you have
161
00:16:11.200 --> 00:16:15.920
five siblings or four siblings, five total? So I, I was the youngest of five and now I have five
162
00:16:15.920 --> 00:16:21.520
kids. Yeah. Okay. So, so there's, and, and that wasn't planned. We have four boys, we have four
163
00:16:21.520 --> 00:16:28.320
boys that are ages 26 to 20. Three of those four boys are currently married. One of them is
164
00:16:28.320 --> 00:16:32.960
serving a mission in El Salvador. He comes home this year, which is really exciting. Um, and then I
165
00:16:32.960 --> 00:16:38.800
have a 11 year old little girl. So there's an eight year difference between Dalin who's 20 and
166
00:16:38.800 --> 00:16:43.600
Hattie who turns 12 this year. And that little girl rocked, I mean, she rocked a world like it was,
167
00:16:43.600 --> 00:16:51.680
she was hard. She was like, she messed us up, man. Um, she wasn't expected. She, in fact, in fact,
168
00:16:51.680 --> 00:16:57.680
for my wife had an IUD and an ablation surgery. So I did the math. I mean, it's like a,
169
00:16:57.680 --> 00:17:03.120
a point zero, one eight percent chance of that little girl coming into the world or point zero,
170
00:17:03.120 --> 00:17:09.040
zero, one eight percent chance. And, and she did and she's incredible. We have to work daily
171
00:17:09.040 --> 00:17:13.520
at it to convince each other that we're worth it. And that's, I think, one of the reasons why we've
172
00:17:13.520 --> 00:17:19.600
been successful in our marriage for 30 years. Another thing in that interview is you mentioned that
173
00:17:19.600 --> 00:17:24.800
and you're already kind of touched on 80, maybe HD, but at least ADD and the selection are super
174
00:17:24.800 --> 00:17:31.680
powers. My son has both and is probably a smidge on the spectrum with how, how we struggle to relate
175
00:17:31.680 --> 00:17:36.400
with people. Um, what message, right, having gone through the experience, actually at a time,
176
00:17:36.400 --> 00:17:42.880
what, one of the things that you described is this, this, um, impromptu speech, right, where you
177
00:17:42.880 --> 00:17:49.920
had a couple of minutes with no internet to, to come up with a, you know, a six minute talk or
178
00:17:49.920 --> 00:17:53.200
an eight minute talk, but it, whatever, whatever that was. Like, I think it's important to point out
179
00:17:53.520 --> 00:17:57.680
that because today's people are going, oh, yeah, give me that much time. I could, yeah, I could
180
00:17:57.680 --> 00:18:04.000
chat GPT here. Exactly. That wasn't a time when you just had to have pull stuff like, and if you
181
00:18:04.000 --> 00:18:08.000
didn't know much about it, you're like pulling parallel topics and trying to draw them together.
182
00:18:08.000 --> 00:18:14.720
What messaging would you give to yourself or say in, in my case, my son about his 80 HD in dyslexia?
183
00:18:15.520 --> 00:18:21.920
So it, it interesting question because my son Connor, he struggled with 80, 80 HD early on. Like,
184
00:18:21.920 --> 00:18:28.000
in first grade, we had a teacher come to us and say, I think we need to talk. Um, and we saw it.
185
00:18:29.040 --> 00:18:36.480
And Connor's one of those kids that just is full of love and life, but just we knew school was
186
00:18:36.480 --> 00:18:41.040
going to be his biggest challenge. And I remember, I remember this, this, this, this moment where
187
00:18:41.680 --> 00:18:48.240
Connor was in middle of high school. He was just, maybe it was early high school. He was just
188
00:18:48.960 --> 00:18:57.600
done. He was so frustrated, so challenged in every, and he was just done. It's one of those moments
189
00:18:57.600 --> 00:19:03.120
where as a father, like, you've got to dig deep to figure out what you're going to do to support
190
00:19:03.120 --> 00:19:12.000
this kid because you have nothing and he was done. And I, and goes back to my mom, I was walking,
191
00:19:12.000 --> 00:19:16.720
I went upstairs because I needed to just take a break. I didn't want frustration. I didn't want,
192
00:19:16.800 --> 00:19:21.360
I didn't want this to escalate. So I took a break and I was, went upstairs and I had a thought
193
00:19:21.360 --> 00:19:26.080
come to me that, to, to, to look at your scrapbook. And I was like, dude, I haven't went to my
194
00:19:26.080 --> 00:19:33.280
scrapbook in years. My mom kept everything. So I, I actually, and she gave us all of our scrapbooks.
195
00:19:33.280 --> 00:19:37.840
We still have, I pulled the scrapbook out and I started flipping through pictures and I started
196
00:19:37.840 --> 00:19:43.440
flipping through the scrapbook. And in the middle of that scrapbook was a Manila envelope that was
197
00:19:43.440 --> 00:19:49.520
three-hole punched in. And I was like, what's this? And I opened it up and I pulled out every
198
00:19:49.520 --> 00:19:59.760
detention note, every report card, every slip of paper of behavioral concerns. Like every single
199
00:19:59.760 --> 00:20:05.600
thing that I, like, my mom kept it all. And I was, and I just, I broke down at that moment.
200
00:20:05.600 --> 00:20:11.920
I broke down because I realized that Connor is me in a different world and in different environment
201
00:20:12.640 --> 00:20:17.920
where, and, and I took that down there and I said, Connor, look at this. And I sat down, I went
202
00:20:17.920 --> 00:20:22.080
through it with him and I said, hey, you see how this says a B? I said, look closely at that.
203
00:20:22.080 --> 00:20:28.160
Because these were old carbon copy, carbon printed report cards that came in the mail. I said,
204
00:20:28.160 --> 00:20:34.320
look closely at this. Do you notice how it's been changed? That was an F and I changed it to a B.
205
00:20:34.320 --> 00:20:39.200
We didn't have, we didn't have power school back then. Like I've changed my grade so I didn't
206
00:20:39.200 --> 00:20:44.320
get in trouble. That's how bad it was. I was like, but look at this detention slip, detention slip,
207
00:20:45.760 --> 00:20:50.800
behavioral notice. Look at the notes on this. Has problems completing tasks,
208
00:20:50.800 --> 00:20:55.600
talkative in school. Doesn't complete homework. All of these things. And I was like, Connor,
209
00:20:55.600 --> 00:21:02.800
do you see am I, have I been like, am I any different than you? And he looks at me and he's just
210
00:21:02.800 --> 00:21:08.720
in tears. And I was like, it's going to be okay. You just have to get through it today.
211
00:21:09.680 --> 00:21:14.400
We'll figure it out and you'll figure it out and you'll be stronger from it because you do.
212
00:21:14.400 --> 00:21:20.400
But I'm telling you right now that whatever your environment is and whatever you're doing
213
00:21:21.440 --> 00:21:25.760
today is a challenge, but it's going to be a strength to you in the future. And I think that kids,
214
00:21:25.760 --> 00:21:32.720
I think that kids with, with, with dyslexia, with challenges, especially boys, I think and being
215
00:21:32.720 --> 00:21:39.840
a dad of four boys, I've seen it where the environment that they're in today does not support
216
00:21:39.840 --> 00:21:46.880
them the way it should. The school is not designed for the boy for boys. It's not, they're not
217
00:21:46.880 --> 00:21:52.880
creating leaders. They're not standing these men, these, these young men up as leaders and
218
00:21:53.520 --> 00:21:58.640
the opportunity to help them influence each other in ways that supports them. It's not design
219
00:21:58.640 --> 00:22:04.320
that way. And so we tried to foster as much of that as possible at home, but I think that just
220
00:22:04.320 --> 00:22:11.920
the advice that I would give parents, your, your son's greatest advocate. Nobody cares about your son
221
00:22:11.920 --> 00:22:19.840
more than you. And, and understand that like Connor today is married. He's serving in the military.
222
00:22:19.840 --> 00:22:25.600
He has a son on the way. In fact, I just became a, a, a grandpa for the very first time last
223
00:22:25.600 --> 00:22:34.400
this weekend. Congratulations. I know it's, it is, it's pretty cool. But like success isn't, success
224
00:22:34.400 --> 00:22:40.800
is relative. Success isn't a, isn't a stake in the ground that you can shoot for success. There
225
00:22:40.800 --> 00:22:46.800
is successful individuals throughout all areas of life that if you can, if you're a good person,
226
00:22:46.800 --> 00:22:52.160
if you support your wife and if you love your family and if you can drive to like if you have
227
00:22:52.160 --> 00:22:57.200
that opportunity to affect change around you, you're a good person and success is relative.
228
00:22:57.760 --> 00:23:02.160
I've been fortunate enough to be blessed to be put in situations where I can serve and support
229
00:23:02.160 --> 00:23:08.640
others. And I have that opportunity to do so and I don't take that lightly. But you can be
230
00:23:08.640 --> 00:23:13.600
successful like my parents were schoolteachers. I slept in the same bedroom with, and shared it with
231
00:23:13.760 --> 00:23:19.200
my other two brothers, most my life. You know, it's like there's success is relative. And I think
232
00:23:19.200 --> 00:23:24.880
success, the beauty about what success can be is especially when you're working with somebody that
233
00:23:24.880 --> 00:23:31.520
is, is challenged with ADHD and, and dyslexia. In today's environment, those are problems and we
234
00:23:31.520 --> 00:23:36.880
need to fix you. When they're your superpower and you didn't embrace them to be able to identify
235
00:23:36.880 --> 00:23:42.080
how do you become more of who you are by embracing what you have? Thank you for sharing that. And
236
00:23:43.600 --> 00:23:47.680
one thing that pops up, right, because you're talking about your very parallel experience,
237
00:23:47.680 --> 00:23:52.240
was the system better than, right? I mean, you probably were paddled, right? Like, because
238
00:23:52.240 --> 00:23:59.600
paddling happened in my school. I don't know if that was that a better system is now. And then
239
00:23:59.600 --> 00:24:05.440
the system fundamentally different, but like just throw in devices where, where there is an escape
240
00:24:05.440 --> 00:24:10.720
from the pain, right, the struggle where I can just throw myself into social media and start
241
00:24:10.720 --> 00:24:16.080
swiping. And then I've got instant gratification. Like, that's clearly not good. I don't have any
242
00:24:16.080 --> 00:24:21.120
doubts about that. But, you know, is there a better system? And, you know, I don't want to spend
243
00:24:21.120 --> 00:24:26.080
too much on this because I want to kind of hop into health and wellness here. But I think this is
244
00:24:26.080 --> 00:24:32.240
part of health and wellness. I really do because I believe that I believe connection is one of the most
245
00:24:32.240 --> 00:24:39.840
important longevity tools we have is the ability to connect it, be connected. I believe that
246
00:24:39.920 --> 00:24:47.600
dads today, if you think about, if you think about the history over the last 75 years, right? I'm
247
00:24:47.600 --> 00:24:52.880
50, I'm 52, I'm turning 53. So, if you look at the last 75 years, my father,
248
00:24:54.160 --> 00:25:00.000
came, was, would, would be considered a boomer. Like, the, the mentality of the boomer generation
249
00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:04.480
was your 18 get out of the house. Like, fortunately, that wasn't the picture of the thought that my
250
00:25:04.480 --> 00:25:09.920
dad had and I had an incredibly loving father and mom. So, I had a great example of what a good
251
00:25:09.920 --> 00:25:14.960
parent should be. And so, now that I see my son, my oldest son, Braden, dude, I'm going to get
252
00:25:14.960 --> 00:25:20.720
emotional on this. Sorry. Now that I see my oldest son, Braden, who's had his first child and I watch
253
00:25:20.720 --> 00:25:27.760
him and I ask myself, did I do enough to be the dad, the example for him? Did I make enough
254
00:25:27.760 --> 00:25:32.320
connection with him so that he can make that connection with his little girl? You know what I mean?
255
00:25:32.400 --> 00:25:39.040
And then I sit back and I watch him and and I see who he is and I'm like, he's going to be fine.
256
00:25:39.680 --> 00:25:43.920
Sorry, I'm going to get emotional because like, seriously, this just happened like less than a
257
00:25:43.920 --> 00:25:50.000
week ago and that little girl is freaking amazing. But I watched my son and I sit there and I was like,
258
00:25:50.960 --> 00:25:55.360
yeah, I think I did. And I think that's one of the most important things that we can do is build
259
00:25:55.360 --> 00:26:04.000
connection with our kids. Like, we've lost in the US. I've traveled all over the world. I've
260
00:26:04.000 --> 00:26:09.760
lived in India for about nine months. I love Mexico. I love, I travel all over the world and you
261
00:26:09.760 --> 00:26:15.120
know the one thing that I find in common with people that live long years is they have multi-generational
262
00:26:15.120 --> 00:26:22.960
families. Yep. Yep. In the house. And in the house. And that boomer mentality that was our parents
263
00:26:23.600 --> 00:26:29.680
was your 18 get out of the house. It's like, fucking why? Why? Do you know what? And look,
264
00:26:29.680 --> 00:26:33.680
there's a lot of conspiracies we can talk about. Well, that creates taxation. Like, that was the moment,
265
00:26:33.680 --> 00:26:40.480
that was the shift that allowed somebody to have to go work and pay and tax and like, there's a huge,
266
00:26:40.480 --> 00:26:45.440
there's a lot of things that you can talk about that. But really what it did is it put ourselves in
267
00:26:45.440 --> 00:26:51.600
a situation where the parents that are becoming parents today don't necessarily have the example
268
00:26:51.600 --> 00:26:56.160
of parenthood that I had growing up, which I think is one of the biggest challenges in health and
269
00:26:56.160 --> 00:27:02.480
longevity that we have. My good example, I was talking with an individual and he's like, you guys
270
00:27:02.480 --> 00:27:07.280
are trying to live to like, you're doing everything you can so you can live longer. He's like, I just
271
00:27:07.280 --> 00:27:12.160
want to die. He's been through divorce. He's been through things. He's had challenges in his life.
272
00:27:12.160 --> 00:27:17.920
It struggles and he's like, I don't know that I want to be here anymore. Why do you guys want to
273
00:27:17.920 --> 00:27:24.560
live longer? The greatest thing you can do in order to support longevity and health is mental
274
00:27:24.560 --> 00:27:31.440
and build connections. I love the fact I was sitting in a conference and there was a small conference
275
00:27:31.440 --> 00:27:36.400
that they did a pass they had out of these cards and you sat down at your table and there's these
276
00:27:36.400 --> 00:27:42.000
cards and it was an icebreaker card. It's like your name, your hobbies, what do you do when you're
277
00:27:42.480 --> 00:27:47.440
and one of the questions was, what is the single greatest compliment you get most often?
278
00:27:48.240 --> 00:27:55.600
And dude, without hesitation, I said, Dad, I have four boys who are 22 or young parents who
279
00:27:56.720 --> 00:28:04.480
are adults who still call me Dad, who still want to be hang out with me. In fact, my third son,
280
00:28:04.480 --> 00:28:10.480
Davis, Davis is the type of kid that like you couldn't tell that kid to do anything. If you told
281
00:28:10.480 --> 00:28:16.000
him how to do something, he'd do it a different way just to prove you wrong. But he's incredibly
282
00:28:16.000 --> 00:28:24.400
talented at accomplishing what he wants to do. And he was going to school, young married,
283
00:28:24.400 --> 00:28:28.400
like he was bare married just a little over a year and he came to me and he's like, Dad, I feel
284
00:28:28.400 --> 00:28:33.040
like I'm missing out on the opportunity to learn from you. He's like, can I work with you? Is there
285
00:28:33.040 --> 00:28:38.800
anything that I can do to be a part of what you're doing? And I was like, yeah, so I put him to work
286
00:28:38.880 --> 00:28:43.040
and I didn't and I haven't paid him. He's been working for me eight months and I haven't paid him
287
00:28:43.040 --> 00:28:46.880
because he just wants to be there and he wants to be a part of it and he's learning what
288
00:28:47.760 --> 00:28:52.000
what supply chain is and learning what project management and he's learning and he'll get paid.
289
00:28:52.000 --> 00:28:57.680
It's kind of the family joke that I don't pay any of my kids. But he'll get like, there's the
290
00:28:57.680 --> 00:29:04.160
opportunity and for the fact that my kids want to be called, want to still call me Dad and want
291
00:29:04.240 --> 00:29:11.360
to be a part of that. That's what longevity is. That's what true life span becomes. Yeah, I want
292
00:29:12.080 --> 00:29:18.320
and because of that, I want to be as healthy as possible so that I can live as long as possible
293
00:29:18.320 --> 00:29:25.360
with that support and environment that my wife and I have built. Man, that's amazing. And we
294
00:29:25.360 --> 00:29:30.400
could end the podcast here, but we have stuff to cover. We have a lot more to do. I mean, sorry.
295
00:29:30.400 --> 00:29:36.160
Well, and I'm going to do I'm going to do a shameless plug because because this kind of fits. I
296
00:29:36.160 --> 00:29:41.040
have been inspired in this concept and this is one of the reasons why I'm so passionate about it.
297
00:29:41.040 --> 00:29:46.160
I have been inspired to identify. I've always wanted to write leadership books. I want it. I love
298
00:29:46.160 --> 00:29:52.160
dude. I grew up reading Steve Narcovey. I grew up reading, you know, Benjamin Franklin's the
299
00:29:53.120 --> 00:30:00.880
the art of habits and like, I love leadership books. I have good friends that have written books
300
00:30:00.880 --> 00:30:07.360
in and then Dr. Benjamin Hardy, who's a phenomenal author, has it comes out like, I don't want to
301
00:30:07.360 --> 00:30:11.600
compete with him. And so what I did, and I took a step back and I said, how can I how can I
302
00:30:11.600 --> 00:30:18.720
influence a younger at a younger level, the power of leadership? And so I actually, I'm writing
303
00:30:18.800 --> 00:30:25.360
a book series called the books books for boys. And these are leadership books in the form of
304
00:30:26.800 --> 00:30:31.840
in the form of story. And it takes and it's funny because there's four boys and a girl in this
305
00:30:31.840 --> 00:30:37.360
team, which is my kids. And they all have personalities of my kids in the so and they go through
306
00:30:37.360 --> 00:30:42.480
these adventures in their little town that that I grew up in basically, they go through these
307
00:30:42.480 --> 00:30:46.400
adventures and there's leadership principles that are taught. Each book has a leadership principle.
308
00:30:46.640 --> 00:30:54.000
Each chapter emphasizes that leadership principle. And then there's a I've built a online
309
00:30:55.200 --> 00:31:01.440
platform that allows these kids after they read the chapter of the book to go online and to
310
00:31:02.240 --> 00:31:08.160
to have offline experiences and to chat with these characters in the books. And I've worked
311
00:31:08.160 --> 00:31:11.840
really hard to keep it safe and secure so they can chat with these characters in the books and
312
00:31:11.840 --> 00:31:15.680
the characters in the books will give them challenges that they can do offline to become better
313
00:31:15.680 --> 00:31:21.840
leaders. And the parents have the ability to be mentors to these children as they're going through
314
00:31:21.840 --> 00:31:26.480
these leadership and they're designed for nine to 12 year olds. And the first ones first ones
315
00:31:27.200 --> 00:31:31.600
went through has gone I've written three right now. First ones gone through editing. They're all
316
00:31:31.600 --> 00:31:35.440
all of them are written. We're going through editing and production. Hopefully they'll come out
317
00:31:35.440 --> 00:31:43.120
in May. But I'm really excited about the opportunity to lean in to hopefully creating a connection
318
00:31:43.680 --> 00:31:50.080
because the idea is that like one of the things I love doing with my boys was I would read the books
319
00:31:50.080 --> 00:31:54.720
that they were supposed to read in school. And I would have conversations about what they were
320
00:31:54.720 --> 00:32:00.000
reading so that we could talk and just create connection. That's a value. That's a tool. It's not
321
00:32:00.000 --> 00:32:04.640
the only tool but it's a tool that parents can have. If dads are struggling on how to be a dad,
322
00:32:05.200 --> 00:32:12.000
it's create connection by doing something together and reading and having conversation and thought
323
00:32:12.800 --> 00:32:17.680
is a way to stimulate those conversations with those connections and and the offline challenges
324
00:32:17.680 --> 00:32:22.240
that are part of the the online experience are going to be really fun. So just the same as plug.
325
00:32:22.240 --> 00:32:26.080
They're hopefully they'll come out in May. Hey super quick break from the podcast. Some

337
00:33:29.680 --> 00:33:36.640
we're here to talk about STEM cells. We're here to talk about STEM region. You're the CEO of STEM
338
00:33:36.640 --> 00:33:41.840
region. Actually, when I first had a conversation with Christian Drapo, he was actually on my
339
00:33:41.840 --> 00:33:46.240
summit, the uncovering the secrets of longevity summit. You were not in the picture at that time,
340
00:33:46.240 --> 00:33:52.400
so how did you get connected with Christian? So I was, I saw Christian, he had 10 minutes on
341
00:33:52.400 --> 00:34:00.480
stage at a conference that I was at and it was after we exited about a year after we exited
342
00:34:00.480 --> 00:34:09.920
cell core. And in that 10 minutes, I don't know if it was divine. I believe it was. I knew that I
343
00:34:09.920 --> 00:34:15.680
had to work with him. I knew that every that he that that was the next opportunity for me.
344
00:34:16.240 --> 00:34:23.600
And so I did everything I could to to prove myself to him. I'm an investor in this company.
345
00:34:23.600 --> 00:34:31.120
I worked for the first nine months to just prove myself. And then in the beginning of 24, he
346
00:34:31.920 --> 00:34:39.600
gave me the incredible honor to to be CEO of STEM region. When you think back to that, okay,
347
00:34:39.680 --> 00:34:45.600
brief 10 minutes. What first of what was the conference? I think you kind of offline mentioned
348
00:34:45.600 --> 00:34:49.920
mastermind, maybe describe that a little bit. And is there anything in particular? Was it the whole
349
00:34:49.920 --> 00:34:55.600
package or was there a couple of key points that really resonated with you to like, okay, this is
350
00:34:55.600 --> 00:35:02.320
this is a big deal. I don't know that I can pinpoint it. Specifically, it was, it was just this
351
00:35:03.040 --> 00:35:08.000
this incredible overwhelming feeling that he was the next person that I needed to support.
352
00:35:08.320 --> 00:35:12.640
We talked we talked. There's a video that I absolutely love. And I think everybody should see
353
00:35:12.640 --> 00:35:17.440
it. It's about the first follower. It's about this guy who's at a concert on the side of a hill
354
00:35:17.440 --> 00:35:23.600
and he's dancing. He's this crazy lone dude all out there by himself. And the message is about
355
00:35:23.600 --> 00:35:28.480
how important that first follower is. Somebody that can come to him, that can champion him,
356
00:35:28.480 --> 00:35:34.640
that can be embraced by him. And then because of that, somebody else is like, oh, hey, they're not
357
00:35:35.520 --> 00:35:40.080
I don't have to be that person alone like. And then all of a sudden, two and three and four and
358
00:35:40.080 --> 00:35:47.120
five and 10 and 20. And then you have a movement and everybody is up dancing. I love being that
359
00:35:47.120 --> 00:35:54.880
first follower. I love supporting an individual that has incredible opportunity in front of them.
360
00:35:54.880 --> 00:36:02.480
And I can I believe that I have the gift and talent to be able to see that in people. And I saw
361
00:36:02.560 --> 00:36:10.160
in Christian and I immediately came home and I told my team. I said, I got it. I know what we're
362
00:36:10.160 --> 00:36:14.960
doing for the next five years. And they were like, what? And I was and they met Christian and
363
00:36:15.600 --> 00:36:22.560
it's been it's not easy like growing and scaling a business and supporting that that that
364
00:36:22.560 --> 00:36:27.600
lone dude that's out dancing on the side of the hill by himself is not easy. But it's incredible
365
00:36:27.600 --> 00:36:32.640
rewarding. It's and you have the opportunity to impact so many lives, especially with the
366
00:36:32.640 --> 00:36:40.160
technology that Christian has and understanding how disease and longevity and and and health
367
00:36:40.160 --> 00:36:47.840
challenges are tied to your repair process and your repair system in your body. And how stem cells
368
00:36:47.840 --> 00:36:53.680
play that role has been incredible. And the work that we're doing, I believe, has the potential
369
00:36:53.680 --> 00:37:01.520
to really truly change the way people look at at disease and decline. And I think there's some
370
00:37:01.520 --> 00:37:07.440
important things here. So I let's yeah, let's get into it. So going into that talk, what kind of
371
00:37:07.440 --> 00:37:15.600
awareness of stem cells did you have? Nothing. Absolutely nothing. I was yes. For me, health was,
372
00:37:15.600 --> 00:37:20.000
I was on my own personal health journey and it was tied to gut and gut health because that's
373
00:37:20.000 --> 00:37:27.440
what cell core was. I didn't have hardly any I knew what stem cells were kind of, but I thought I
374
00:37:27.440 --> 00:37:35.120
did. So no, it wasn't and so it wasn't even about the topic. It wasn't it was about him. It was about
375
00:37:35.120 --> 00:37:41.040
Christian. It was about the feeling that I had when I heard him speak and the opportunity that was
376
00:37:41.040 --> 00:37:48.000
presented in my in in my mind's eye of where this where this could go and who he was.
377
00:37:49.120 --> 00:37:53.120
Anytime I'm learning something new and this is like you're you're about to kind of pour the next
378
00:37:53.120 --> 00:37:57.920
five years of your life into it, there's like things that you got to go where you say, okay,
379
00:37:57.920 --> 00:38:01.760
maybe does this make sense? Did you have where there are a couple of things that you had to go
380
00:38:01.760 --> 00:38:05.920
like check some boxes to make sure things were I don't know on the up and up. I know Christian,
381
00:38:05.920 --> 00:38:10.480
so that wasn't much of a debate, but but but like what did you come off and they're like, I got
382
00:38:10.480 --> 00:38:17.600
to double check these things. Having dyslexia and ADHD is interesting because with ADHD, you can go
383
00:38:17.600 --> 00:38:23.600
broad on a lot of topics, but but when you focus in on one, you go deep. And so after here in
384
00:38:23.600 --> 00:38:30.640
Christian, I went deep on that in in ways that like he was, I think he's still impressed that I was
385
00:38:30.640 --> 00:38:35.360
able to learn as much as I learned I read his book multiple times, like listen, I went deep on who
386
00:38:35.600 --> 00:38:45.040
he was. And then with dyslexia gives you the incredible ability to look at things dyslexia, you
387
00:38:45.040 --> 00:38:48.400
could take an idea and a concept and you could turn it upside down. It's like a ribic scoop. That
388
00:38:48.400 --> 00:38:53.840
idea becomes a ribic scoop to me and I can flip it and turn it and move it in many different ways
389
00:38:53.840 --> 00:38:59.760
until it becomes a hole and and and then continue to look at it. The only downside is I can't spell
390
00:38:59.840 --> 00:39:05.600
with anything. So chat GPT has unlocked my ability to like write, which is fun. So I went deep in
391
00:39:05.600 --> 00:39:13.280
that in that realm of who he was and I immediately saw the impact in the studies and his name across
392
00:39:13.280 --> 00:39:18.240
multiple scientific papers across multiple studies that had been done over the course of his time
393
00:39:19.040 --> 00:39:24.560
and have just been truly honored and blessed to be a part of this in in a small way, which is
394
00:39:25.120 --> 00:39:29.440
exciting. So let's talk about it. So what is the technology and why is it so important?
395
00:39:29.440 --> 00:39:34.800
In a nutshell and this is this is I think this is the greatest thing that Christian did in about
396
00:39:34.800 --> 00:39:41.920
early on in the late 90s and he he came across an ingredient from Klamath Lake called AFA and he
397
00:39:41.920 --> 00:39:47.760
was brought in to do scientific research and study the the mechanism of actions and the effects
398
00:39:47.760 --> 00:39:54.240
of the AFA on the body. And as he was going through this this this research project, he started
399
00:39:54.240 --> 00:39:59.600
seeing all these outlining cases of things that he couldn't explain. And in most time when you're
400
00:39:59.600 --> 00:40:03.040
doing research there's always going to be outliers. There's going to be one to two, three things that
401
00:40:03.040 --> 00:40:10.000
you just can't really explain and you just set them aside as as as notes as and and and just
402
00:40:10.000 --> 00:40:16.400
continue to move on with the core of your research. But when those outliers start to compound in
403
00:40:16.720 --> 00:40:21.840
two hundreds and two hundreds and three hundreds cases, you have to stop and take a moment to say,
404
00:40:21.840 --> 00:40:29.280
okay, what's truly happening here? And these are outliers of things that that at that time in 2001
405
00:40:29.280 --> 00:40:35.760
from a medical outlook were not possible. In fact, those same things are still happening today as
406
00:40:35.760 --> 00:40:40.960
people are using these these products and these ingredients. So he started doing he started digging
407
00:40:40.960 --> 00:40:45.200
into the research and he started reading everything he could and he came across an article. I think
408
00:40:45.280 --> 00:40:49.440
it was the one of the first articles that was written about the effects of stem cells in the body.
409
00:40:49.440 --> 00:40:57.600
And the article just discussed how they were able to identify stem cells migrating and becoming
410
00:40:57.600 --> 00:41:02.960
a heart cell. And that triggered the whole concept. And then and then he found another article
411
00:41:02.960 --> 00:41:10.560
as he dug deeper that stem cells could actually be identified and tagged becoming a brain cell
412
00:41:10.560 --> 00:41:18.480
in in mice and a a liver cell. And so in his mind, he's like, if we if stem cells can become
413
00:41:19.200 --> 00:41:25.840
heart brain or liver, then they are the repair system of the body. Stem cells are at the heart
414
00:41:25.840 --> 00:41:30.880
of the repair system of the body. And he's like literally in 2001, he's like, we just found the
415
00:41:30.880 --> 00:41:39.280
cure to disease. And it's taken him 26 years, 25, 26 years to be able to have a platform where
416
00:41:39.280 --> 00:41:47.280
people are finally beginning to listen. And the whole process, the whole concept is a process that he
417
00:41:47.280 --> 00:41:53.200
has identified called endogenous stem cell mobilization. And he's been doing his had the work
418
00:41:53.200 --> 00:41:59.520
that he's been doing on botanicals throughout the world. And he's identified many many different
419
00:41:59.520 --> 00:42:06.320
botanicals and he's narrowed it down to three that have a have a tremendous effect on mobilizing
420
00:42:06.320 --> 00:42:11.200
stem cells from your own bone marrow into your body. So there's a difference when people think of
421
00:42:11.200 --> 00:42:16.160
stem cells, they think of doing an injection, right? So they they go and they do a localized
422
00:42:16.160 --> 00:42:22.720
injection and where they do a systemic injection. But it's external stem cells being applied into
423
00:42:22.800 --> 00:42:29.680
an area where hopefully they'll have an absorption rate greater than 17%. So if you think about it,
424
00:42:29.680 --> 00:42:37.920
they do an injection into a shoulder for a pitcher in major week baseball. They're doing about
425
00:42:37.920 --> 00:42:44.320
100 million stem cells injected into that area. There's about a 17% absorption rate. So you're
426
00:42:44.320 --> 00:42:51.120
getting about 17 million stem cells that actually take effect and and have the ability to have an
427
00:42:51.120 --> 00:42:57.280
impact and and and it works. These these athletes, the individuals that like in the knee and the
428
00:42:57.280 --> 00:43:02.640
hip in these areas of joint where people have struggles and pains and challenges, it works. They
429
00:43:02.640 --> 00:43:11.120
there's people that see a benefit to stem cell injections. Well, that's an outside source coming in.
430
00:43:11.120 --> 00:43:18.160
The interesting thing with with what the work that Christian has been doing is he's identified how
431
00:43:18.240 --> 00:43:24.240
these three different botanicals have an effect of releasing your own stem cells into the body
432
00:43:24.240 --> 00:43:30.080
and the the the conservative estimate by taking two capsules of stem origin release. You can
433
00:43:30.080 --> 00:43:36.240
increase 10 million new stem cells in circulation in your in your body within the next two to three
434
00:43:36.240 --> 00:43:44.480
hours. So if you do that twice a day for 30 days, you've just added 600 million stem cells in
435
00:43:44.480 --> 00:43:49.760
circulation on the constant and like constantly evolving, constantly working. Then the beauty of
436
00:43:49.760 --> 00:43:58.240
this is that it is known by the time you reach age 30, you have a 90% reduction in circulating stem
437
00:43:58.240 --> 00:44:04.000
cells and it can just continues to to decline from there. And that's and if you think about it,
438
00:44:04.000 --> 00:44:10.000
anybody will tell you I'm 53. Anybody will tell you man, I don't have the body that I used to.
439
00:44:10.080 --> 00:44:16.320
Like when you hit 30, that's when you start filling the pains and and your body doesn't recover
440
00:44:16.320 --> 00:44:22.800
the way that it used to and and everybody like if you start putting that correlation between
441
00:44:23.440 --> 00:44:29.120
the number of circulating stem cells and your body's ability to recover after an activity,
442
00:44:29.760 --> 00:44:34.720
you can immediately draw that connection. And that's exactly what Christian did. He started drawing
443
00:44:34.720 --> 00:44:38.560
the connection and and the beauty of this is there's a lot of other people doing the research on
444
00:44:38.560 --> 00:44:44.400
this as well. It is well known fact that within medical data and the research papers that are out
445
00:44:44.400 --> 00:44:51.520
there that any age related disease, any age related disease, whether it's congestive heart failure,
446
00:44:51.520 --> 00:44:57.840
whether it's erectile of the function, any age related disease, the person who has that disease
447
00:44:57.840 --> 00:45:03.120
has 50% less stem cells in circulation than the person of the same age that's healthy. There's a
448
00:45:03.120 --> 00:45:09.360
direct correlation. We're actually in the process of working with some professional and and universities,
449
00:45:09.360 --> 00:45:14.160
professional athletes and some universities to actually show a direct correlation between
450
00:45:14.800 --> 00:45:20.160
an athlete that steps onto the field, two athletes step onto the field. One of them and their
451
00:45:20.160 --> 00:45:26.320
makeup body, everything is exactly the same. One of them thrives, one of them has just every like
452
00:45:27.280 --> 00:45:32.320
everything works. The other is prone to injury. Now this is a conversation. This is a question that
453
00:45:32.320 --> 00:45:39.840
has plagued sports therapists and and player development for years. Why does one person excel?
454
00:45:39.840 --> 00:45:45.200
The other person is prone to injury. Well, we're in the process of identifying that story that
455
00:45:46.080 --> 00:45:51.520
that the person who has is prone to injury has less stem cells in circulation. The person that
456
00:45:51.520 --> 00:45:56.080
doesn't. There's a direct correlation between the number of stem cells in circulation and your
457
00:45:56.080 --> 00:46:03.200
body's ability to repair and recover. So if you think of it from a concept of decline as you get
458
00:46:03.200 --> 00:46:10.240
older, your body constantly is in a state of repair. You get a new heart. I mean, I think they said
459
00:46:10.240 --> 00:46:16.480
you get a new heart every 30 years. So if you think of your first heart for the first 30 and then
460
00:46:16.480 --> 00:46:22.800
your second heart from 30 to 60, when does when do when do we start having health problems?
461
00:46:22.800 --> 00:46:28.640
Like 16 beyond. And that's because your body doesn't have the ability to continue to recover
462
00:46:28.640 --> 00:46:34.160
and repair. And if it can't repair, those needed because it doesn't have the it doesn't have
463
00:46:34.880 --> 00:46:44.720
the circulating tools to be able to do so, then your body reach is drawn into a state of decline.
464
00:46:45.360 --> 00:46:51.280
Now, the interesting thing about longevity and this, all of these all like red light, there's
465
00:46:51.280 --> 00:46:56.400
people that do red light therapy. There's people that do cryotherapy. There's people like
466
00:46:56.400 --> 00:47:02.320
hyperbaric chambers. There's all of these things that are designed to help your body recover
467
00:47:02.320 --> 00:47:09.600
and repair cold plunging. Everything has an effect and and on the circulating stem cells in your
468
00:47:09.600 --> 00:47:14.880
body. So that if you can stack stem regen release, which with two capsules, you get 10 million
469
00:47:14.880 --> 00:47:20.320
new stem cells with other modalities of repair and recovery, you're only providing the tools
470
00:47:20.320 --> 00:47:26.000
necessary for your body to recover in a way that it was designed to do. And that's the entire
471
00:47:26.000 --> 00:47:31.840
that's the premise and concept of of stem regen is to be able to support your body's natural
472
00:47:31.840 --> 00:47:37.520
ability to repair. That's it. Like I'm and the cool thing about that is if we can do that,
473
00:47:37.520 --> 00:47:42.560
if we can truly support the body's ability to repair what will happen. And that's the question
474
00:47:42.640 --> 00:47:50.800
we're asking. Now, I'm here to tell you from a FDA like regulations and claims across the board,
475
00:47:50.800 --> 00:47:57.760
all we do is support the body's natural ability to repair. That's what we do. That's the mechanism
476
00:47:57.760 --> 00:48:03.440
action. We can it's well documented. We know exactly what our product does. The question that
477
00:48:03.440 --> 00:48:10.160
we're asking is if we can truly do that. What will happen? And that's where that's where the
478
00:48:10.160 --> 00:48:16.880
beauty comes at. That's where the magic happens. I know in my conversation with Christian really
479
00:48:16.880 --> 00:48:26.240
kind of fascinating stuff about different herbs and botanicals that released stem cells and how
480
00:48:26.240 --> 00:48:30.720
he understood that they weren't the same mechanism right because there's a different timeline on when
481
00:48:30.720 --> 00:48:35.920
they're actually released. And then actually incorporating or finding, I think it was really kind
482
00:48:35.920 --> 00:48:41.680
of discovering that there were some that would actually push these stem cells into tissue,
483
00:48:41.680 --> 00:48:47.520
right? I don't know if you didn't mention that and I know that there's multiple products now,
484
00:48:47.520 --> 00:48:53.680
is that still incorporated into the main product? Yeah, absolutely. And that's the beauty about
485
00:48:53.680 --> 00:48:58.880
what the product does is there's three main ingredients that have an effect of releasing stem cells
486
00:48:58.880 --> 00:49:05.360
in the body. And basically the mechanism that that's occurred is these three ingredients mimic
487
00:49:05.360 --> 00:49:12.480
the signal of repair that you're that that that happens in cell to cell communication.
488
00:49:12.480 --> 00:49:19.920
When there is a damaged tissue, there is a signal that goes out saying, I need help. That signal
489
00:49:19.920 --> 00:49:26.400
is inflammation. It's that's part of the the process of repair. Information is a tool that your
490
00:49:26.400 --> 00:49:32.400
body uses to be able to identify that there is an area that needs help. Like we talk about inflammation
491
00:49:32.400 --> 00:49:36.960
and systemic inflammation is such a bad thing. And yes, systemic inflammation is because what's
492
00:49:36.960 --> 00:49:41.920
happening. And the reason why you have to be able to manage that, you have so much inflammation
493
00:49:41.920 --> 00:49:47.360
in your body that those stem cells don't know where to go. There's so much noise. Think about
494
00:49:47.360 --> 00:49:52.960
static on an old TV or on a radio. When when static would come in, when interference would come in,
495
00:49:52.960 --> 00:49:58.000
that wasn't a good signal. And that cell to cell communication is so vital because what happens is
496
00:49:58.080 --> 00:50:07.440
when there's when there is a need of repair, a mechanism occurs where a signal is produced so that
497
00:50:07.440 --> 00:50:12.080
stem cells are released from the bone marrow into the bloodstream and can travel to that signal
498
00:50:12.080 --> 00:50:18.720
and accomplish repair. The three main ingredients in our product actually mimic that signal,
499
00:50:18.720 --> 00:50:23.280
which is why they're getting released. And so we can easily identify. Now the other products in
500
00:50:23.360 --> 00:50:29.920
our ingredient help with the mobilization of those stem cells through and into the tissue. And so
501
00:50:29.920 --> 00:50:35.360
that's the beauty of what Christian has done. He's been able to document and identify all of the
502
00:50:35.360 --> 00:50:41.520
effects of endogenous stem cell mobilization and how they play have a role in playing to support
503
00:50:41.520 --> 00:50:46.720
the body's natural repair system. So I remember when I interviewed him, I walked away because I didn't
504
00:50:46.880 --> 00:50:54.240
think of this at the time. We're mobilizing stem cells out of red bone marrow, right? Typically,
505
00:50:54.240 --> 00:50:59.680
that's where it's coming from. Red bone marrow shrinks with age. Is there any concern that we're
506
00:50:59.680 --> 00:51:09.120
actually kind of expediting the shrinkage of bone marrow? Are we pulling out? Because obviously,
507
00:51:09.120 --> 00:51:13.520
if we were, and I don't think we are, but I want to get your opinion, if we were, that would
508
00:51:14.000 --> 00:51:20.720
maybe not be the best long term plan, great short term, but not long term. And I think maybe even
509
00:51:20.720 --> 00:51:25.680
Christian hadn't thought about that when I sent the email to him at the time. But anyway,
510
00:51:26.240 --> 00:51:31.520
what are your thoughts? No, there's absolutely. And that's a question that we get all the time.
511
00:51:31.520 --> 00:51:39.120
Well, are we going to run out? There is zero scientific evidence that your body will ever get to
512
00:51:39.120 --> 00:51:43.920
the point where it doesn't produce any more stem cells. If it does, you would die. That's like,
513
00:51:43.920 --> 00:51:49.280
and that's a known factor. But if you think about it, what are the things that actually create
514
00:51:49.280 --> 00:51:54.160
stem cell mobilization naturally without taking any supplement or anything, people that work out?
515
00:51:54.160 --> 00:51:59.120
Well, look at these athletes that are just that are driven to exercise or to work out. They're
516
00:51:59.120 --> 00:52:05.200
constantly reducing high volumes of stem cells in circulation and body. There's no evidence in any
517
00:52:05.200 --> 00:52:11.840
of the scientific literature that states that your body will run out of stem cells.
518
00:52:11.840 --> 00:52:19.280
The beauty about what happens, and there's actually proof that stem cells have the ability
519
00:52:19.280 --> 00:52:25.680
to be stored and make their way back into the bone cell where they can be able to repopulate.
520
00:52:25.680 --> 00:52:33.600
And there was a study that was done that was a bone marrow that was completely dry depleted.
521
00:52:33.600 --> 00:52:39.280
And they took a single stem cell and they put it into the bone marrow. And within time,
522
00:52:39.840 --> 00:52:46.880
that bone marrow was completely rejuvenated. So your body has, that's the beauty of this concept,
523
00:52:46.880 --> 00:52:52.400
is it is all we're doing is supporting that natural ability, that repair system of the body.
524
00:52:53.120 --> 00:52:58.240
And we're just providing the tools at a greater rate so that your body can be able to handle it.
525
00:52:58.240 --> 00:53:04.400
And those that aren't the excess tools and you can, the excess stem cells will actually make
526
00:53:04.400 --> 00:53:08.720
their way back into the bone marrow to repopulate that bone marrow so that they can be ready to be
527
00:53:08.720 --> 00:53:16.880
released again. It's interesting when the story of the mechanism, the mechanism is so core
528
00:53:17.840 --> 00:53:23.920
to how the body functions, right? And then you're, so you probably get this, well, what about the
529
00:53:23.920 --> 00:53:27.600
liver? And you're like, well, the stem cells help the liver? Yes, well, but what about the
530
00:53:27.600 --> 00:53:32.240
heart or what about the muscle? And I bump into that with my product, product as well.
531
00:53:32.240 --> 00:53:36.240
Is there any place you think that this might not be a value? Is there anything you're like,
532
00:53:36.240 --> 00:53:40.320
nah, I wouldn't waste my time on, I don't know, this particular concern?
533
00:53:40.880 --> 00:53:46.160
You know, I think the best way to do this is through some anecdotal observations that we've
534
00:53:46.160 --> 00:53:50.640
had some from some of our practitioners, one of my, one of our practitioners is that he's a
535
00:53:50.640 --> 00:54:00.000
podiatrist. So he deals injuries from the knee down. So a lot of neuropathy, a lot of, a lot of
536
00:54:00.000 --> 00:54:06.560
open wounds that just don't heal. And as he has incorporated the full protocol into his practice,
537
00:54:07.200 --> 00:54:11.360
it's interesting the way he approaches this with his patients because he says, hey, look,
538
00:54:11.360 --> 00:54:17.680
this is something that's new. It has, I've seen it have tremendous effect on, on, on the people
539
00:54:17.680 --> 00:54:23.360
that I'm working with. But the interesting thing about this is that your body knows what needs
540
00:54:23.360 --> 00:54:30.000
to be repaired. So while we're going to work, he has, he has actually seen a reversal of neuropathy
541
00:54:30.000 --> 00:54:35.920
in the legs because he puts people on the product. But at the same time, he had this one gal who
542
00:54:35.920 --> 00:54:41.360
couldn't, she, her shoulders were so bad, she couldn't do anything. And she came in and she was
543
00:54:41.440 --> 00:54:48.320
like, I saw her two months before this. And she was just down and devastated. She just looked like
544
00:54:48.320 --> 00:54:52.320
she couldn't do anything. She was in so much pain. I put her on the product two months later. She
545
00:54:52.320 --> 00:54:58.560
came in and she was a different person. And she was like, yeah, I just, I, I, I mowed, it was
546
00:54:58.560 --> 00:55:04.000
fourth of July weekend. I mowed the lawn and she couldn't, she had full control. So the, the story
547
00:55:04.000 --> 00:55:10.800
behind this is that your body knows what it needs. Your body knows where repair is necessary.
548
00:55:11.600 --> 00:55:18.640
And it is going to prioritize and go for the highest points needed first and then prioritize
549
00:55:18.640 --> 00:55:24.880
down. So when he, when he gives people the product, he's like, look, it, I, I believe that it will
550
00:55:24.880 --> 00:55:30.000
have an effect in this area. But I also know that you will come back and it will have, it will
551
00:55:30.000 --> 00:55:35.600
affect you systemically because your body knows how to repair. And that's two capsules a day.
552
00:55:36.320 --> 00:55:40.400
Two capsules twice. Yeah, two capsules a day. If you're, you can push it a little bit more with
553
00:55:40.400 --> 00:55:48.080
two capsules twice a day. There's even evidence the, the, the, when we go into doing a clinical trial
554
00:55:48.080 --> 00:55:53.360
or one of our studies, we have an on, we have a couple ongoing studies right now. One is on
555
00:55:53.360 --> 00:55:59.280
congestive heart failure. The other is on, on Parkinson's. And the protocol that we do with
556
00:55:59.280 --> 00:56:04.160
Stimergen release on that is two capsules three times a day. We keep it straight and forward. It's
557
00:56:04.160 --> 00:56:09.760
and, and the outcomes that we're seeing through these studies are just incredible. That's awesome.
558
00:56:09.760 --> 00:56:15.280
So congestive heart failure or disease and Parkinson's. That's, that's pretty amazing.
559
00:56:15.280 --> 00:56:19.600
You want to talk about, yeah, I know you have, when I first met with Christian, it was one
560
00:56:19.600 --> 00:56:24.080
product. Now you're at three, I think, talk about kind of what are, what are the differences there
561
00:56:24.080 --> 00:56:28.240
and then we can get into our wrap up questions. Yeah, sure. Absolutely. So the, the, the beauty of
562
00:56:28.240 --> 00:56:34.320
the whole, this whole system is we're supporting the, the entire process of stem cell mobilization,
563
00:56:34.320 --> 00:56:39.280
a endogenous stem cell mobilization and endogenous repair. So if you think about it, we've already
564
00:56:39.280 --> 00:56:43.120
talked about the release of stem cells in the body. So that we have three products. One is called
565
00:56:43.120 --> 00:56:50.720
release, which release stem cells, the other is signal and then mobilize. And the entire process
566
00:56:50.720 --> 00:56:57.040
is release releases the stem cells in your body. Signal reduces the noise in the body. If that
567
00:56:57.040 --> 00:57:02.320
systemic, we talked a little bit about the cell, the cell communication and how that, how that
568
00:57:02.400 --> 00:57:08.960
has an effect on the, the mobilization of stem cells. Well, if there's systemic inflammation
569
00:57:08.960 --> 00:57:14.720
in your body, then that signaling, we get disruptive. So as we signal reduces systemic
570
00:57:14.720 --> 00:57:21.200
inflammation, it reduces the body's noise that's going on in the system and allows you to be able to
571
00:57:21.200 --> 00:57:27.920
allow the stem cells to know where they're needed most. Mobilize is a full of,
572
00:57:28.080 --> 00:57:33.200
nanoconies and another number of different ingredients that supports your capularies and your
573
00:57:33.200 --> 00:57:41.040
microcapularies. If you look at a stem cell, stem cells like 30 microns in size and your microcapularies
574
00:57:41.040 --> 00:57:48.320
are five microns, like how do you shove a 30 micron, like stem cell through into a five micron
575
00:57:48.320 --> 00:57:52.640
so that it can actually break the blood barrier and get into the tissues? Well, that's what
576
00:57:52.640 --> 00:57:58.800
mobilize does. It actually supports the, the health and the elasticity of those, of those capularies
577
00:57:58.800 --> 00:58:04.160
so that it can be able to expand and grow so that stem cells can be able to flow properly
578
00:58:04.800 --> 00:58:11.200
through the system. So release signal reduces the noise so signal we can occur and mobilize
579
00:58:11.200 --> 00:58:15.280
which allows the mobilization of those stem cells. And those are the three main products.
580
00:58:16.080 --> 00:58:21.440
Excellent. Well, before we get to our wrap up questions, anything, any summary, anything,
581
00:58:21.440 --> 00:58:26.720
maybe we didn't touch on that you'd like to hit. No, man, we covered a lot and sorry that
582
00:58:26.720 --> 00:58:30.960
there was a lot of personal in there. You get me talking about my family and me. I think the
583
00:58:30.960 --> 00:58:37.600
biggest thing is that I truly believe, I truly, truly believe that the work that Christian
584
00:58:37.600 --> 00:58:44.800
Drupal is doing, if people will just take an opportunity to step back, clear minds like really
585
00:58:44.800 --> 00:58:51.040
look into it, that this has the ability to change the way we look at medicine. It has the
586
00:58:51.040 --> 00:58:57.760
opportunity to, to, there's so much that this concept of endogenous stem cell repair and endogenous
587
00:58:57.760 --> 00:59:03.440
stem cell mobilization can occur, can do for the human body if we just give it a chance. I've seen
588
00:59:03.440 --> 00:59:08.800
it in my personal life. I've seen it with my mom. I've seen it many, many others in the reports
589
00:59:08.800 --> 00:59:14.640
and the research that we're doing shows that this does have a tremendous effect on your ability to
590
00:59:14.800 --> 00:59:20.560
recover and repair the body systemically. Excellent. All right, time for our wrap-up questions.
591
00:59:20.560 --> 00:59:26.720
Ryan, do you have a target age that you want to live to? You know, I don't. Honestly, I, I don't,
592
00:59:26.720 --> 00:59:33.600
I just want to be able to be actively engaged in the life of my family and friends as long as
593
00:59:33.600 --> 00:59:38.400
possible. How long do you think humans can live? Well, there's the centenials. There's, there's,
594
00:59:38.880 --> 00:59:44.720
absolutely evidence that, you know, I think the, the, the one interview that I saw the gentleman
595
00:59:44.720 --> 00:59:55.360
live to be at 138, 140, there are, that you, your body has a tremendous capacity to, to, to live
596
00:59:55.360 --> 01:00:01.840
and, and wants to live. I believe that I believe that we're barely scratching the surface on what
597
01:00:01.840 --> 01:00:10.240
our potential is. And as we support, naturally support our body's ability to, to, to recover,
598
01:00:10.240 --> 01:00:17.360
to repair it and, and just doing simple modalities on, and creating a regular cadence of your own
599
01:00:17.360 --> 01:00:23.120
protocols of what you do. I, I love, I have a power plate at home. I love, I love being able to do
600
01:00:23.120 --> 01:00:29.920
vibration therapy, um, sauna, cold plunge, um, infrared, like, red light therapy. All of these
601
01:00:30.000 --> 01:00:34.800
things together will have an effect on you. And, and you can tell, you can tell an immediate impact
602
01:00:34.800 --> 01:00:40.080
that the, the, these modalities that are centered around longevity and the 12 harmonics of,
603
01:00:40.080 --> 01:00:45.760
of longevity are real and they have an effect. So I would love to see the day when this becomes
604
01:00:45.760 --> 01:00:51.600
more mainstream. And I think it's getting there, um, so that people can truly see the, the,
605
01:00:51.600 --> 01:00:57.520
the benefit from supporting your body's natural ability to repair. So you're 52, 53, right? Right,
606
01:00:57.600 --> 01:01:03.440
right on the cuss. You say potentially 140. So we're talking somewhere between the,
607
01:01:03.440 --> 01:01:09.440
there and then I always like to kind of push is the number 100 is the number. So my wife and I
608
01:01:09.440 --> 01:01:16.480
just started living our second 50. So let's 100 years old for us. We're like it. And, and, and for
609
01:01:16.480 --> 01:01:23.440
us, I'm telling you, man, that the first 50 was hard. The second 50 is amazing. So we're, we're
610
01:01:23.440 --> 01:01:29.120
really excited about about what, what's in front of us. I'm only three years old. Exactly.
611
01:01:29.120 --> 01:01:34.560
Three, three of the next 50. I love it. Um, what are two to three protocols, habits, mindsets,
612
01:01:34.560 --> 01:01:38.800
let's call them shortcuts because everybody likes shortcuts to longevity and a long health span
613
01:01:38.800 --> 01:01:44.400
that you would share. So my, my personal routine is I wake, I'm, I'm an early to bed early to rise.
614
01:01:45.120 --> 01:01:52.560
I, 10 o'clock, bedtime, five o'clock, I'm up. Um, sometimes four, four to five, I'm up. And,
615
01:01:52.560 --> 01:02:00.240
and that routine is, is pretty, pretty standard. My own personal study and prayer, my own personal
616
01:02:00.240 --> 01:02:05.840
meditation, I, I begin every day that way. And then I go and I sit in the sauna for 20 minutes
617
01:02:05.840 --> 01:02:11.520
with the red light therapy, sauna. From there, I cold plunge. And then I go and, and there's a
618
01:02:11.520 --> 01:02:15.680
number of different things from there. I'll, I'll stand on a vibration plate and then I'll
619
01:02:15.680 --> 01:02:23.280
dead hang. I believe for, for, for everybody like dead hanging and grip strength is one of the
620
01:02:23.280 --> 01:02:28.480
most important things you could do. If you can, if you can dead hang for a minute, you're in great
621
01:02:28.480 --> 01:02:32.960
shape. And it's interesting to see what happens is you, as you begin the process of hanging,
622
01:02:32.960 --> 01:02:37.680
of dead hanging and, and you go from a minute to a minute and a half. And then you get to the
623
01:02:37.680 --> 01:02:44.960
point where you can do a lock, a lock off and hang and your body has tremendous. So that's when
624
01:02:44.960 --> 01:02:51.200
you're hanging this way. Okay. Yeah. And, and a lock off and you're hanging rigid strength and,
625
01:02:51.200 --> 01:02:56.640
and you move into that dead hang in different ways. And then you, you're, you're, you're bringing
626
01:02:56.640 --> 01:03:03.040
your feet parallel like in a hanging position, you do as much as you can. It's amazing how much
627
01:03:03.120 --> 01:03:08.640
that strengthens your shoulders, how it stretches your body. So those are, those are my favorite
628
01:03:08.640 --> 01:03:13.680
things to do. The other, the other main, the other thing that I do is, is, is community I have,
629
01:03:13.680 --> 01:03:20.240
I'm engaged in active communities and friendships and love and family constantly. Excellent.
630
01:03:20.800 --> 01:03:25.600
What are one or two things that you think people get absolutely wrong regarding longevity and
631
01:03:25.600 --> 01:03:31.360
a long health span? So it, it, interesting you say that there was a, and I, and I don't know who
632
01:03:31.360 --> 01:03:35.920
this was and I, I don't want to offend anybody. But there was a con, there was a conference that,
633
01:03:35.920 --> 01:03:40.560
that came out last year that was called don't die. Yeah. First of all, that's a whole negative
634
01:03:40.560 --> 01:03:47.680
approach to longevity. The idea of don't die, you cannot, you could walk cross street, get hit
635
01:03:47.680 --> 01:03:53.280
by a bus and that has nothing to do with whether you did red light in the morning or not, right? So
636
01:03:53.360 --> 01:04:02.160
in, in my, that, that idea of that fear of death to me is, is the wrong reason to do this.
637
01:04:02.160 --> 01:04:08.160
Fear of death to me is that negative approach to why you're doing this. You have to have a reason to
638
01:04:08.160 --> 01:04:15.520
live and to live the fullest in your life. That's what longevity is about. It's not about don't die.
639
01:04:15.520 --> 01:04:23.040
It's about living more. Excellent. Brian, how can people contact you? I have a couple of different,
640
01:04:23.040 --> 01:04:32.160
online platforms. Fifthhammer.com is my business concept and, and, and, and philanthropy and funding
641
01:04:32.960 --> 01:04:39.200
side of things. It's, it's so Fifthhammer.com. You can go to Stembridge N. Yeah, spelled out. You
642
01:04:39.200 --> 01:04:46.880
can go to Stembridge N. .co. I'm Ryan Atte. I'm on like Instagram and, and LinkedIn. You'll,
643
01:04:46.880 --> 01:04:51.520
I'm, I'm pretty easy to find. If you, if you do a search for Ryan Riley from Idaho,
644
01:04:52.160 --> 01:04:56.560
I'm all over the place. You'll get me. Excellent. And what in the near future are you excited about?
645
01:04:56.560 --> 01:05:00.640
Being a grandpa for the very first time. I mean, that's, I honestly, that's the biggest
646
01:05:00.640 --> 01:05:06.080
impact right now is, I'm, but I'm excited about, I'm excited about the future. I mean, I,
647
01:05:06.960 --> 01:05:13.520
there's so much going on in this world where people are so afraid of the future, whether it's
648
01:05:13.520 --> 01:05:17.680
political, economical, there's, there's a lot happening in this world at this time.
649
01:05:19.040 --> 01:05:23.360
I'm excited for the good that we can bring to the table because we have a tremendous capacity
650
01:05:23.360 --> 01:05:27.520
for good. And I'm excited for where the people that lean into that side of the future
651
01:05:28.560 --> 01:05:32.800
are really the ones that are going to have longevity. Excellent. Well, you can find him at
652
01:05:32.800 --> 01:05:40.880
