In this episode of the PerformWell Podcast, we’re tackling one of the most common challenges we see with clients and listeners alike, protein intake. If you’ve ever struggled to hit your protein goal, felt confused by food labels, or wondered whether plant-based protein really cuts it, this one’s for you.
We break down the basics of protein sources, from animal vs. plant-based options to understanding quality, bioavailability, and what actually fuels your performance. We also get practical, sharing meal planning strategies, snack ideas, and mindset shifts to help you stop overthinking and start hitting your numbers.
Plus, we talk about the deeper stuff: why some people sabotage their goals, how psychology plays a role in nutrition, and how to stay consistent without being obsessive.
If you're serious about improving your health and performance, this episode gives you the tools to make protein work for you, not against you.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
