Proof of Practice Podcast

by To cut through the noise in health and wellness with honest, research-backed conversations that inspire real people to live longer, stronger, and more fully. No shame, no shortcuts, no wellness theater.

Five voices, one table, no filter. Proof of Practice brings together pro athlete Gabby Reece, Dr. Abbie Smith-Ryan, Dr. Gabrielle Lyon, Dr. Stacy Sims, and tech leader Amber Taylor for the kind of conversation that usually only happens after the conference ends - honest, sharp, and grounded in both lived experience and real science. Each episode explores the intersection of health, performance, and longevity through a lens that centers women without excluding anyone. From hormones to strength, sleep science to mental resilience, nutrition to biometric tech, the trio covers what's actually working, what's overhyped, and what the research says versus what culture tells us. Guests span sport, medicine, nutrition, research, mental health, and beyond. This isn't a podcast that makes you feel bad for not doing enough. It's a table where smart people come to get real, get informed, and get inspired. proofpractice.substack.com
