Brian Sanders is the founder of the
Sapien Center in Austin, Texas, a health and social club that brings together like-minded health enthusiasts. Brian became interested in launching a physical space after spending nearly 6 years working on his upcoming documentary
Food Lies, launching his brand
Nose-to-Tail, and starting his podcast
Peak Human. His passion for re-writing the health narrative was born out of his own health journey that started after both his parents encountered life-altering diagnoses. Since then, Brian has focused his energy on getting more information in the hands of people looking to make a change, and now his community space serves as the epicenter of healthy living in Austin, Texas. In our episode with Brian, we discuss the importance of creating a third place, why community is just part of the bigger picture of health, and the power of learning how to hunt for your own food. We hope you enjoy!

What is The Meat Mafia Podcast?
The Meat Mafia Podcast is hosted by @MeatMafiaBrett and @MeatMafiaHarry.
We're two guys who walked away from the typical path to carve out something different. Based in Austin, we’re on a mission to figure out what it takes to live a fulfilled life in a world that often pushes us away from meaning.
We have conversations with people we believe can help us, diving deep into the pillars of health, wealth, and faith, as the cornerstones of our mission.
Whether it's challenging the modern food system, questioning conventional health advice, or building something from the ground up, we're here to explore the tough questions and share the lessons we’ve learned along the way.
If you're tired of the noise and ready to find meaning, tune in and join us!
