In this episode of Men of Influence, host Tim Holloway welcomes Dr. Bill Janeshak, a chiropractor with nearly 30 years of experience in functional neurology, functional medicine, and performance optimization. Dr. Bill shares his holistic approach to health, blending physical fitness, mental clarity, and spiritual purpose to help men thrive in faith, family, fitness, and finances. Drawing from his expertise, he explains how lifestyle choices in one area; such as fitness; naturally enhance others, creating a ripple effect of influence. From overcoming personal challenges like epilepsy to guiding patients through complex health journeys, Dr. Bill emphasizes the power of aligning body, mind, and purpose to live as men were designed: to provide, protect, and grow.
Dr. Bill dives into the fundamentals of health; breathing, hydration, nutrition, sleep, movement, sunlight, and stress reduction; while stressing the importance of a compelling “why” to fuel daily action. He offers practical steps for building resilience, like writing down your ideal self to clarify your identity and assembling a supportive “tribe” for accountability. Through a neuroscientific lens, he explores how dopamine drives motivation and how breaking down limiting beliefs can unlock potential. With insights from the hero’s journey and biblical principles like Philippians 4:8, Dr. Bill inspires men to embrace adversity, move daily, and build a life of purpose and strength for their families and communities.
