Foreign. Hey, everyone. Dylan Gemelli here today with an extremely exciting announcement. I am now on the Minec app as an expert. That is Patrick Bet David's app. So you can hire me today. You can ask me questions about hormones, pept, neuroscience, cardiology, cellular health, finances, faith, religion, whatever it may be. I am there. You can book me for your podcast and you can also apply to be on mine. But go over, download the Manect app, find Ylanjamieli. I will answer either by audio, by text, you can get video responses, you can even book a phone call with me. I'm extremely excited to be available to work with all of you and I thank you all for your support. So check me out on my NECT today. Today's episode is sponsored by my good friends at Timeline. Timeline is now offering the world's first ever longevity gummies, powered by Mitipure. You've heard me talk about the importance of cellular health and our mitochondria, which is why I have Timeline as my favorite and most trusted sponsor. These are the only clinically proven Urolithin, a gummies for strength and healthy aging. We may be living longer lifespans, but are we truly living better lives? What if the key is not just adding years to your life, but to your years? This all starts at the cellular level. As we age, our mitochondrial health starts to decline. And one of the keys to living longer and healthier is keeping our mitochondria healthy and strong and might appear targets. This for us. Take control of your health now and live the life that you not only desire, but you also deserve. As a gift to all my listeners, you can save 20% off today by going to timeline.comdylan to get started. That's timeline.combackslash Dylan, I assure you your cells will thank you. All right, everybody, welcome back to the Dylan Gelli podcast. And today it's just me, Dylan Gelli. And you saw the title, I'm sure, and I really want to dive into the reason and the motivation behind this podcast. I have written about it, I gave a trailer about it when I initially started it, but I really want to talk to you about the direction where we're going and why I am even here. And, well, first, I just want to thank everybody. I'm sure that some of you have seen and some of you may not have, if you're new here especially, but we did hit number one in health and fitness, and that is. It's so humbling. It's mind blowing. It's amazing. I don't have the words I am so, so thankful for all of you. I've had so much support. I'm thankful for the people that listen, that give me constructive criticism and feedback. I, I need that I am ever evolving. I always want to know things that I can improve, fix things that you like so that I can continue to work on things for everybody. Because I am a firm believer in never being complacent and always realizing that no matter how well something may go, you can always do it a little bit better. You can always find things that need fixed or retooled. And you know, I am never, never opposed to hearing any of that. This show is for everybody else. It's not for Dylan. This is not about me. This is about me doing God's work. I am strictly God driven and I am literally doing whatever that I feel that I'm being told by the Holy Spirit to do. And you know, things have gone extremely well and I'm always been known as a health and fitness guy and I still am to the core. I've you know, been associated with talking about hormone optimization, for example, muscle building supplements, peptides. So a lot of people that think about me, that's what they go to. And I certainly want everybody to know that you can always come to me for that and that is always something I will study and I will be knowledgeable in and be very passionate about. But now things have expounded far more really now for me I want to be known more for as an anti aging expert and basically a studier of neuroscience. I'm getting enrolled at Arizona State University. I have recently signed a very long term deal with Dr. Dave Rabin and I will be working very closely with him with the Apollo Neuro. If you see the video, you see that I'm wearing that. And my focus now with everything is a mind to body connection. I work quite closely with timeline and as soon as I started working with timeline I began to study cellular biology, most specifically the mitochondria. But now it's really expounded and now I'm doing that mind, body connection and correlation and trying to really piece together how we can live not only longer but better, better quality of life. My goal here is to, to teach everybody how to take care of themselves in the right way. To be able to be self dependent in terms of knowing what to do and how to go about it, knowing what tests to get if you're not getting them from your doctor, knowing at things that you need to be aware of about yourself that you can't just get Anywhere and everywhere. You know, there's a lot of things in life that many of us become reliant upon or dependent upon. And I realize not everybody's spiritual, and that's fine. I will always say to rely on God first, but you have to be able to rely on yourself. You have to be able to know where to go get your information. You need to know what to look for and how to look for it. And you gotta be careful about being overly complacent and just trusting everything that you hear and see. It's great to ask questions and don't let anybody ever tell you any different. Science is meant to be questioned, and so are any other things that are being presented to you. If somebody's getting so overly offended when you question them, then you have to ask yourself, but why? What, what is it that's offending the person that's getting asked the question? Now, it depends on how the question is being asked, of course, but simple, you know, properly motivated questions. When it comes down to your health, you need to know everything, and I mean everything. So there's no question that should be left undone or unsaid. I want to make sure that you come here to my channel and you know that I am talking about everything I'm bringing on. People that talk about the heart, people that talk about the mind, people that talk about emotions, people that talk about your brain, people that talk about health, fitness, wellness. I want to talk about it all. And I want to be a place that, you know, that you can go, that I am so well rounded and versatile in what I am talking about and understand this. I want everybody to know what I do when I have guests on. There are many podcasts that I've been on that I know of are out there. And I'm not saying they're bad. I listen. I am the last person. I will not throw stones at people. I will not do it. But I will say that I feel that one of the reasons that my show has taken off so quickly and done so well is because of the way that I approach every guest. Many people take on as many guests as they can. And I. I understand, you know, why, and I understand the desire to do that. But they don't talk with them beforehand. They don't, like, get to know them. They don't learn enough about them and what they do. I don't script a thing. I don't believe in scripting things. I have a lot of people that will send me these big, long outlines. They want me to go over and you know, with the person that I'm interviewing and it's nice to have some ideas of things that they want to talk about. But I like to meet people beforehand so that I can get to know them, so I can learn about their passions, so that I can see what drives them, so I can get a face to face interaction with them and see, you know, what kind of personality that I'm talking to. Because personalities are different. I'm great at getting along with every type of personality because I'm a straight down the line. I like to stay cool as as can be, you know, and I just try to get along with everybody. I just want to learn. Everything in life is learning. And so I really take my guests to heart. I get to know them first, 15, 20 minutes even. So a lot of times the conversations end up going longer. But then I schedule the podcast at least a week or two out from our conversation. Why? So that I have time to really study them, what they do, what they're passionate about, what their specialty is. And I try to learn it because when I get into a conversation, if it's not inquisitive to me and it's not engaging to me, it's going to be very difficult to convey that to an audience that's listening and wanting to hear a really strong conversation and take something from it and learn from it. I don't want something to be this scripted, boring, same old, same old, do it with the same old people type of thing. That is not what I'm about. I want conversations to go anywhere and everywhere. Like I said, it's nice to have some sort of an idea. Somebody's got a book coming out. Okay, we're going to talk a little bit about the book. I'm going to help them, you know, talk about what they've put out there and what people can expect. But that, that's not what this is. This is getting to the core of things. This is possibly getting people to talk about things they've never talked about before and if they have maybe taken a different angle to it so it's not the same story over and over again. I want to take my time with a guest and I want to get every last bit of information that I can and utilize every last second of that conversation to bring you exactly what you want and need and more. And I want the guests that come on to go, wow, I didn't even think about these topics that I never discussed before or add on to what they're doing elsewhere. Perhaps it's adding on to a speech they're giving at a conference or you know, maybe it's giving them another topic that they didn't realize, they didn't touch on or further expound upon. And I want to give you, my audience and everybody listening, the best of the best information that you can listen to, that you can learn from, that you will engage with, that you will, you will resonate with and you will learn from and take it home with you to improve every aspect of your life. And I am going to continue expound my knowledge base. I will tell you how, how deep that I go and God bless my wife because she will ha. She has to deal with me often in terms of me talking to her about multitudes of topics or a lot of nights where she has to go to bed without me because I'm reading and I'm studying and she's been nothing but supportive and great to me throughout all of that. But she engages with me too. She learns with me. We do it together. But I will tell you, I have become so well rounded in my studies and what I've learned and I it, it's a testament to the people that I get to interview that are willing to speak to me that are some of the most brilliant minds out there. But I really tried to spotlight the people that have the right motivations, the right motives, that really want to deliver the goods. And when I say the goods, I mean the best information possible. It's going to help us. I don't spotlight people that have bad motives that are just trying to sell a product or pitch a product. However, I will bring people on here that have good products, that have something that I feel is going to be a huge benefit to everybody. I'm not going to shill said products. And you know, a lot of people say, well come be an affiliate and come do this. I'll give a special code on here to people to help them out. If, if I feel like it's going to be a benefit to you. I have very, very, very specific partners that I work with because it's a passion of mine that I feel is going to make a significant difference. But I try to keep my ads and the products and things that I promote to what I firmly, firmly, firmly believe in, that I think have the right motives that will make the right difference. I won't just start doing anything and everything. I will never sell out like that. I promise you. Now you will see me promote a few because I, I, I don't do these little short term things where I go in I look to work with people long term to build something, to grow something. That's what I do. And so I avoid. I have been given. I. I've lost count now, but if I went and looked, probably well over 200 affiliate codes, if not more, and you'll see me use a few of them. I have a couple close friends that I try to help out because I use their stuff every day, but I don't work with them closely. But I want to make sure that you are coming here because of the credibility, the reliability and the trust and the belief, and also hopefully the entertainment and the knowledge base. The motivation here is very, very simple. Help you overcome every single aspect that plagues you in your life. Whether it's bad information, whether it's health, whether it's looking for alternative medications, whether it's getting the right, you know, recommended products out there. And, and I want you to feel comfortable here. I want you to come to this channel feeling like, okay, Dylan's not here talking about politics and talking about these conspiracies and everything. I will not hold back on things that I know for certain are true. So if I see, like, for instance, when I will talk about statins and I know the way that they're misused and misrepresented, when there's, you know, I may be somebody that is pro, I don't know, GLP1, but I will tell you about all the bad ways that people use them and why they hurt people when they shouldn't, which could be anything. I will be honest with you. I. Like I said, you guys know me. I've put out the content on who I am and overcoming things that I've done wrong, overcoming prison, you know, dealing with eating disorders. I want you to realize one thing about me, and I think and hope that everybody out there will resonate with this. And people that have huge numbers and huge channels and are extremely popular, I hope they listen to this. And maybe they do. And maybe they say, ah, whatever. And maybe they actually go, man, maybe I should think about that. I am just another dude, you know, another guy, normal everyday person. I just happen to have a large following. And that's, to me, that's amazing. And I do get flattered and I do get excited, of course I do. But I choose to understand and know that this platform was given to me by God for a reason and for a purpose. And it's not to exploit people, it's not to lie to people, it's not to mislead people, and it's not to Try to make this huge prominent name for myself where I'm obsessed with my image and things that I've done in the past. That's not what this is about. Yes, I want to be number one because I am ultra competitive and because I believe that if I am, that people are going to hear what I have to say and present with the people that I bring on here. Anybody that goes into anything and not wanting to be the best, then I would question why they're doing it. However, the purpose and the reason, it's God's work. It's for all of you. It's to do the right things at this time. This is my time to present what I can to you, to all of you. As long as you'll support me, as long as you'll listen to me, as long as you will give me your attention, then I'm going to give you everything that you need and deserve that I've been told to help and provide you. And I will continue to do that day in and day out. That is my motivation, that is my drive, and that is my purpose. I know. Finally, after all of these years of questioning, of wondering, of being selfish, of being greedy, of being inquisitive, of wondering just what the hell am I here for? I now know. I know the reason. I know the purpose. And I knew from the moment that I was very little, that I. There was something special that I had to do, you know? And it went from playing basketball to modeling to doing YouTube videos. And all that time being so unfulfilled, wondering what. What exactly am I here to do? Why do I feel like I. I should be so happy because I have all of these things. But what am I missing? Well, I was not being God first. And I was missing the motive. I was missing that feeling inside. I was missing that humility. And I was missing being thankful and being understanding of everything that I have and that I am. And I just want so badly to do the right thing by all of you and to give you my very best at all times. And that is what I will do. I know my purpose. I know why I'm here and I know why I do this. And I will continue to stay on that path and do everything that I can to be the very, very, very best for all of you. So thank you everybody for your support, for all of the kind words and for watching and hopefully learning and changing your lives. Please subscribe, share it with everybody. I just want my mission to be out there, to be heard and to grow. And I want everybody to have the opportunity to learn something to improve their quality of life. I got some big guests coming. I'm going to be appearing on several shows as well. I'm going to be going all over the place to many different conventions and speaking in person. So follow me on Instagram. You'll see all my clips.
