In this episode of The Superhuman Podcast, we sat down with Ben Strange — an international connector, investor, and founder of Strange Investments, known for bridging high-level conversations between family offices, HNWIs, and bold founders.

Ben opened up about his unconventional path to success — from dropping out of school early to becoming a trusted dealmaker to the ultra-wealthy. We talked about the raw lessons that shaped him: cold calling, rejection, humility, and building trust through brutal honesty. This one’s packed with wisdom for anyone navigating both business and life.

Here’s what we dive into:

• Ben’s unfiltered rise — how leaving school and working in retail sparked a global career in investment and relationship-building

• Trust over tactics — why staying grounded and calling people out (even billionaires) built his strongest relationships

• Old-school grit vs new-age fluff — what today’s entrepreneurs can learn from war-era wisdom, cold showers, and saying “no” to scripts

• The psychology of money — thoughts on S&P 500, crypto, collectibles, and how the ultra-wealthy really think about investing

• Ben’s superhuman routines — ice baths, organic eating, nature immersion, early mornings, and how pain creates resilience

If you’re looking to build something meaningful and play the long game — in both relationships and results — this episode will remind you what really matters.

In this episode of The Superhuman Podcast, we sat down with Cynthia Cohen, founder and CEO of Nuchu — a clean, gut-friendly gummy supplement brand made without any added sugars or sweeteners.

Cynthia shared the story behind how years of gut issues led her to create the product she wished existed. What started as a personal health journey turned into a purpose-driven company—one that’s now redefining what it means to be truly “clean” in the supplement industry.

Here’s what we unpack:

• Cynthia’s gut health journey — from battling IBS and Candida to creating her own healing path after conventional medicine failed her.

• The hidden truth about gummies — why most are packed with sugar or artificial sweeteners, and how Cynthia spent 3.5 years building Nuchu as a clean, functional alternative.

• The science behind absorption — why Nuchu gummies work faster and more effectively than most pills, especially for those with compromised digestion.

• The mindset behind the mission — how Cynthia used meditation, manifestation, and mindset rewiring to overcome imposter syndrome and build resilience.

• Daily rituals & future vision — her personal superhuman routines (from bone broth to scripting the future), plus what’s next for Nuchu’s community and product line.

If you care about your health, mindset, or are building something from scratch — this episode is full of wisdom, strategy, and grounded inspiration.

*MY STORY*

☉ Burnt out in finance after working 12-18 hour days. Diagnosed with an autoimmune condition, I realized pushing harder wasn't the answer. This led me into the deep world of peak performance.

☉ 2018: Spent thousands of hours researching (and new education) on how to optimize energy, focus, and creativity. Realized true peak performance starts with managing your biology, not just working harder. This involved flying around the world to meet the best-of-the-best doctors and leaders within the space.

☉ 2018-2020: Launched my Sleep Nirvana program for entrepreneurs and CEOs. Helped clients maximize energy and focus while reducing stress and fatigue through their deep sleep. Business grew rapidly. Started traveling and speaking to high performers around the world…

☉ 2021: I realized how many people don't just need to sleep better, but actually improve their health on a root cause level. Many were just taking surface level temporary "Band-Aid" solutions without seeing any actual progress. That's when I saw testing (not guessing) with lab testing to see health and peak performance issues at a root cause level was needed.

☉ 2022: The Peak Perform model was born. A new era of health performance optimization combining cutting-edge lab testing and "health KPI" monitoring with personalized protocols customized to an individuals biology. No more guessing - just top 1% consistent energy, focus, flow, output, and more.

☉ 2023: Things evolved and became more refined - down to a science. People's health started improving (many times struggling for years) and states of peak performance and flow became their new effortless norm. The world needs this, and I am ready to scale.

☉ 2024: Massive focus on more presence globally - this new era model of health and peak performance. People followed the system and saw results, it was that replicable. It felt massively empowering, leading to a commitment to grow The Superhuman Podcast & YouTube channel to increase awareness around the world - with the goal to help 100,000 people with their health and performance by 2026.
