''I Lost 100 Pounds Eating Real Food and Walking Every Day'' — Brandon Miller Proves Modern Ancestral Living Works

What if the journey to true health wasn’t about the perfect diet but about reconnecting to yourself?

In this episode, I sit down with Brandon Miller, a nutrition coach and personal trainer from Jupiter, Florida. At just 23, Brandon has lived a complete health transformation. He lost over 100 pounds, battled IBS, navigated the cult-like corners of diet culture, and came out the other side more grounded, more curious, and more balanced than ever.

We go deep into how the carnivore diet helped and harmed him, why he believes movement and sleep may matter more than food, and how he's using his experience to help others avoid the pitfalls he faced. This isn’t a conversation about hacks or hype. It’s about real growth, real healing, and redefining what health actually means.

Key Takeaways

Healing Through Humility – Brandon shares how extreme dieting taught him what not to do, and how those lessons now shape his coaching approach.

The Carnivore Cult Effect – Brandon opens up about how restrictive diet communities can become toxic and why changing his views came with backlash and clarity.

From Gut Issues to Food Freedom – After struggling with IBS, Brandon learned that small changes, not total eliminations, offered real healing.

Sunlight and Sleep Over Supplements – Getting outside, sleeping deeply, and tuning into circadian rhythms shifted Brandon’s energy more than any diet ever did.

Redefining Success in Your 20s – Instead of partying, Brandon built a career, moved across the country, and grounded himself in purpose and daily discipline.

Balanced Health Is a State of Being – Health isn’t about perfect foods or fitness plans. It’s about how you feel, live, move, and relate to the world around you.
