Back in the early days of building Fit Body Boot Camp, I had the perfect escape from the chaos.
Late nights, early mornings, and fires to put out everywhere I turned.
The stress was crushing me.
So I found my refuge: sneaking out during lunch to get sushi.
I’d crush a few rounds of salmon, tuna, and yellowtail rolls before heading back to the office. It felt like the perfect way to decompress without any downside.
For months, this was my routine. My little secret stress relief.
But here’s the thing about life…
Even innocent pleasures can turn against you if you’re not careful.
One day, after my usual sushi indulgence, things started to feel…off.
I couldn’t put my finger on it, but I was sluggish, foggy, and second-guessing decisions I typically made with confidence. The sharp mental edge I needed to build a business was disappearing.
After doing some bloodwork, it turns out my body had been waving the white flag.
My “innocent” sushi habit had quietly spiked my blood mercury levels, impacting my cognitive function, energy, and decision-making ability.
The very thing I thought was helping me handle stress was actually sabotaging my ability to perform when it mattered most.
Here’s what I learned:
Your body IS your business plan.
Every decision you make about what you put in your body directly impacts your ability to make the decisions that grow your business.
When your energy crashes at 2 PM, you’re not just tired. You’re operating at 50% capacity during critical business hours.
When your brain fog kicks in during important calls, you’re not just having an off day.
You’re leaving money on the table.
When you’re too exhausted to think strategically, you’re not just burnt out. You’re making reactive decisions instead of strategic ones.
HERE’S HOW TO OPTIMIZE YOUR BODY FOR PEAK BUSINESS PERFORMANCE:
- Treat Your Energy Like Currency – You wouldn’t waste money on bad investments. Stop wasting energy on foods that crash your system.
- Time Your Fuel Right – What you eat at lunch determines your 2-6 PM performance. Choose foods that sustain, not sabotage.
- Track Your Patterns – Notice when your energy peaks and crashes. Schedule your most important work during peak hours.
- Invest in Systems – Just like business systems, health systems compound. Small daily choices create massive long-term results.
I share this because I firmly believe that if you want your business to perform at a championship level, your body needs to run just as efficiently as your company.
