Today on The EMPWR Podcast, we’re joined by Harry and Brett– best friends, former college athletes, and the voices behind The Meat Mafia Podcast. From their own health transformations to launching a platform that challenges mainstream nutrition norms, these two are on a mission to empower people to think differently about their food, and where it comes from, and ultimately, to become the CEO of their own body.
We get into: the path from athletics and burnout to entrepreneurship and metabolic health, Brett’s experience navigating an autoimmune disease and getting off all medications by taking his health into his own hands, why the meat industry has been so misunderstood (and what most people get wrong), hot takes on the carnivore diet, vegan diet, seed oils, and what “clean eating” really means, the food system, decentralization, and taking your health into your own hands, and building a brand (and a mission) with your best friend.
We also talk about the “good, better, best” framework when it comes to sourcing meat, and how to apply that same mindset to the way you consume and make choices with food in everyday life. If you’re passionate about clean eating, but also believe in balance, and if you're questioning what’s actually healthy, or just want to feel more grounded in your choices… this one’s for you.
