What's up, folks?

Welcome back to the WOOP podcast.

I'm your host, Will Amit, founder and CEO of WOOP, and we are on a mission to unlock human

performance.

That's right, the WOOP membership collects information about your body, strain, recovery,

sleep, helps you figure out what you need to change about your

behavior to perform at a higher level. And if you do not have a W-W-M-M-E-M-Ship, you can use the code

Will-W-I-L-L-H-MED and get 15% off a W-WP membership. I hope you enjoyed the Super Bowl,

Patrick Mahomes, Chiefs, great season. We have to congratulate Tom Brady and the Bucks. And you can check out some cool analysis we did of how Woop data was affected by the big game right now at Woop.com slash locker. That's whoop.com slash locker. We look at some behavioral analysis on not the players, in fact,

but the fans. Headed fans from different cities react to the Super Bowl. Pretty interesting.

This week we've got a great guest, chef, entrepreneur, and athlete Michael Chernow. Michael joins me

to detail his journey to sobriety, the importance of gratitude,

and what drives him to perform in life. He dives deep on overcoming adversity and what he's learned

along the way. He talks about balancing being a father, a husband, a fitness freak, and a

successful businessman all at the same time. We discuss how Michael found his passion for the

restaurant business at the young age of 13, the importance of creating the right environment to

foster success, learning how to not let work consume your life and why gratitude is critical,

embracing failure, his opinion, not mine, and learning from your mistakes and why he thinks

the restaurant industry is in for a big bounce back later this year.

Michael's a great guest without further ado.

Here is Michael Chernow.

Michael, welcome to the Woof podcast.
