On this week’s episode of Harder to Kill Radio, I’m pleased to welcome New York Times best-selling author and podcast host Dallas Hartwig.
Meet Episode 51’s Guest, Dallas Hartwig
Dallas Hartwig has a clear mission: to help people live healthier, more intentional lives. Many readers know him as a co-creator of the Whole30 program, but his interests and influence reach far beyond food. Over the years he’s explored nutrition, behavior, technology, and the ways modern life shapes our habits and relationships.
In this conversation, Dallas and I dig into the broader challenges people face today—how technology affects attention and social connection, how social media rewires reward systems, and what practical steps we can take to regain control. We also discuss why he’s shifting some of his focus away from nutrition alone and toward the larger systems that shape wellbeing.
Dallas is someone whose work I respect, and he’s also a close personal friend. I’m excited to share this thoughtful, wide-ranging episode with you.
