PrecisionCycle
The elevate.epo Podcast
Psychology, Precision, Power.
Welcome to the elevate.epo podcast—where therapy ends and transformation begins. Hosted by Enrique Arteaga, MSc., this series breaks the mold of traditional mental health discourse. No DSM checklists. No passive listening. Just sharp, unfiltered insight into what it really takes to recalibrate your identity, optimize your emotional system, and move through the world with embodied leadership.
Each episode explores the mechanics of EPO (Executive Performance Optimization) and EROS (Embodied Relational Optimization System), drawing from real-world client breakthroughs, cultural analysis, and deep psychological pattern recognition. From founders to creatives, high-performers to seekers—this is where you come to decode your internal operating system and rewire it with precision.
You're not broken. You're underutilized.
Welcome to the upgrade.

The Mixdown of the Mind: Grunge Producers as Therapists of the 90s Psyche
In this episode of PrecisionCycle, Enrique peels back the distortion and dives straight into the psyche of the 1990s—through the lens of the men behind the console. What if grunge producers weren’t just making records... they were guiding entire generations through therapeutic landscapes?
We break down the big six:
- Butch Vig as Winnicott’s Container
- Steve Albini as Lacan’s Analyst
- Rick Rubin as Jung’s Mystic
- Brendan O’Brien as CBT with a distortion pedal
- Terry Date as DBT in Drop-D
- Dave Jerden as Humanistic Nihilist with a mic’d-up snare
From Nevermind to In Utero, from Under the Bridge to Rooster, this isn’t just music criticism—it’s field psychology.
What does it mean that your favorite 90s track might be more therapeutic than your therapist? Tune in and find out. elevate.epo
