Episode 186

In this episode:We’re diving into the wild world of vagal nerve stimulators today. Yep, you heard that right – those fancy gadgets might just be the next big thing for recovery, or they might be the latest gimmick to separate you from your cash. We’ll be chatting about how these devices are supposed to help athletes bounce back after a grueling workout, but spoiler alert: the science is still a bit shaky. Also, our guest, Jess Cerra, is here to share how she turned her kitchen experiments into a successful energy bar business and co-founded a gravel race that’s funding scholarships for women. Seriously, we’re talking about $130,000 in scholarships handed out over the past five years – and that’s not just a drop in the bucket!
