Meet Darin Olien, “The Indiana Jones of Super Foods”
It was an amazing conversation considering I was in the middle of doing a program he co-created called the 21 Day Ultimate Reset. His story is absolutely amazing and if you have a passion for health and nutrition, I KNOW you’ll not only love this interview, but love his new book he just published called “SUPERLIFE: THE 5 FORCES THAT WILL MAKE YOU HEALTHY, FIT, AND ETERNALLY AWESOME.”
Having a SuperLife is about living the greatest expression of life possible.
