(3:00) He mentions measuring things by your FQ, the "Failure Quotient". This has nothing to do with how smart you are; it has everything to do with brushing yourself off and getting back up. If you find poor excuses, you need to take a better look at yourself. (8:00) You have a brain, you make choices. Vinnie is considering doing small group Zoom consults; he'll figure out the details and give more information down the road. (11:00) He asks for feedback on the idea—contact him through X (formerly Twitter) and let him know your thoughts. Vinnie reminds listeners that it's not as important that you screw up, you must get back up. (15:00) He discusses how Tom Brady took average skills, learned what to develop, and looked at what he did with it. (16:30) He shares an example of a success story from his Rowing Class. (17:20) Vinnie discusses how people white-knuckle it through other diets, only to hit the goal and rebound up. This usually happens because they don't address what is going on mentally. Anna shares a story where she had to say no to what was a big deal for her business. (23:00) She talks about how she has changed over the years and how she handled it now compared to what she would have done before. Everything is an opportunity to learn and grow by learning from failures. She ties her story back to health and fitness, and how to not beat yourself up, just get right back on with the next moment. They chat a bit about Anna's new upcoming cookbook, Eat Happy Italian. (28:00) Vinnie's going to a wedding. (29:45) They chit-chat a bit about their younger years and what they realize now in comparison. Anna Has Answers Anna shares a couple of cooking questions she received.

A listener asks for a rundown of Anna's Eat Happy Kitchen spices on meat. (47:30) Vinnie gives a shout-out to listener Mark who recently finished a great climb up Mt. Whitney—he DNF'd the first time, but made it this time! (50:30) Vinnie plays a YouTube video excerpt, "How Keto Failed You". Why did it work for someone else, but not you?
