Artificial intelligence is evolving at an unprecedented pace—what does that mean for the future of technology, venture capital, business, and even our understanding of ourselves? Award-winning journalist and writer Anil Ananthaswamy joins us for our latest episode to discuss his latest book Why Machines Learn: The Elegant Math Behind Modern AI . Anil helps us explore the journey and many breakthroughs that have propelled machine learning from simple perceptrons to the sophisticated algorithms shaping today’s AI revolution, powering GPT and other models. The discussion aims to demystify some of the underlying math that powers modern machine learning to help everyone grasp this technology impacting our lives, even if your last math class was in high school. Anil walks us through the power of scaling laws, the shift from training to inference optimization, and the debate among AI’s pioneers about the road to AGI—should we be concerned, or are we still missing key pieces of the puzzle? The conversation also delves into AI’s philosophical implications—could understanding how machines learn help us better understand ourselves? And what challenges remain before AI systems can truly operate with agency? If you enjoy this episode, please subscribe and leave us a review on your favorite podcast platform.

Everything you want is on the other side of feeling it, or as this week's guest says, "You gotta feel it to real it." Natalie Habbaz is a therapist and former Fitness FYX client. Just as we take a holistic approach to nutrition and fitness inside of The FYX, Natalie does the same with her clients, combining her counseling background with her love for movement as a lifelong dancer.
Inside of The Fitness FYX, Natalie learned how to fuel her body to have more energy to manage a household of 3 kids, and lost several inches on her waist by reducing inflammation in her body--also through MORE food, not less. In this episode, we discuss:

The importance of recognizing and addressing mental blocks that hinder personal progress, emphasizing that everyone is perfect as they are, despite challenges we may face.
The significance of a body-mind connection, where understanding personal experiences can help alleviate stigma and promote healing.
The necessity of self-care and nutrition in improving mood and overall well-being, highlighting the need to eat more and prioritize sleep and movement.
The idea of operating from a place of abundance rather than scarcity, encouraging clients to trust themselves and their choices regarding food and fitness.
The role of vulnerability and realistic expectations in personal growth, suggesting that societal messaging often contributes to negative self-identification with mental health struggles.
The value of professional support in uncovering personal blocks and facilitating a journey towards self-acceptance and empowerment.

1:30:03

Mike Crowson takes us on his raw, unfiltered journey from bodybuilding dreams to building multiple 7-figure businesses. But this isn't your typical "hustle harder" pep talk – it's the strategic reality check we all need. In this value-packed conversation we dive into: • Why working smarter > working harder (and the crucial difference) • The real reason most entrepreneurs plateau (it's not what you think!) • How to create genuine connections that actually convert to clients • The power of narrowing your focus to exponentially scale your impact The Entrepreneurial Reality Check • "It's really hard. And to have light on the direction to go is what people want more than anything." • Real entrepreneurs don't want success handed to them – they just need confidence their hard work is going in the right direction • Most people don't quit because of work ethic – they quit because they're going hard in the wrong direction • Two degrees of correction early can prevent miles of wasted effort later The Journey from Gym to Business Empire • Started as a bodybuilder, personal trainer, and fitness model in NYC • Launched Rise Supplements (now worth high nine figures) • Created Coffee Over Cardio (sold after generating $10M in sales) • Built a successful marketing agency alongside other ventures • Now runs AR, building automated lead funnels for online fitness coaches The Power of Environment & Mentorship • "We fall to the levels of our systems, not the levels of our goals" • Your environment shapes your potential – who you speak with, your habits, everything • The pivotal mentor advice: "You're much bigger than this place" • The danger of being the "big dog" in a small pond – you never realize what a big dog truly is The 80% Rule for Success • Consistency trumps perfection every time • "80% will get you in the right direction. 100 and zero will get you nowhere." • One more decision in the right direction will get you results • "Perfect is the enemy of getting shit done" • Err on the side of good decisions rather than seeking perfection APPLY FOR 1:1 COACHING WITH THE FITNESS FYX FOLLOW KRYSTA: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@thekrystahuber⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@thefyx.officialpod⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@thefitnessfyx⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Check us out on Youtube Follow Mike: Instagram: @mike_crowson Instagram: @arfunnel.io…
