Biohack-it – Détails, épisodes et analyse

I have waited two and a half years to bring you this conversation. Today, I am joined by the world-renowned OBGYN and women’s health expert, Dr. Jessica Shepherd from HERS.

We live in a culture that promises "salvation" through a single shot, a specific pill, or one hormone replacement. But as Dr. Shepherd reveals, the truth about total body optimization is far more complex. This episode is an urgent call for women to reclaim sovereignty over their own bodies and nervous systems.

In this masterclass, we discuss:

The HRT Lie: Why an entire generation of women was taught to fear hormones and the devastating impact of that misinformation.

The GLP-1 Reality: Why your health transformation requires more than just a shot to reach the "best version of you".

Total Body Levers: The specific, alternative points of view on medicine that allow you to optimize your health from a cellular level.

Personal Expansion: How to bridge the gap between "getting by" and achieving true longevity.

If you feel like you’ve been looking for answers in all the wrong places, this conversation will give you the tools to finally pull the right levers for your health.

I've been using Branch Basics for five years. It changed my health before I even fully understood why.

In this episode I sit down with Allison Love, co-founder of Branch Basics, to break down something most people never think about: the toxic load hiding in your cleaning products, laundry detergent, personal care items and yes, the air inside your own home. We talk about how Allison's co-founder reversed her PCOS not through medication but by changing what she was washing her clothes with. We talk about Marylee, their mentor, whose son went from a healthy, coordinated child to barely being able to lift his head off a pillow after pesticide exposure, and how stripping their home one product at a time brought him back.

We also get into why the word "natural" on a label means nothing, how fragrance hides hundreds of toxic chemicals in a single word, why your sanitizers and disinfectants may actually be making you more vulnerable to getting sick, and what the word "fragrance" is legally allowed to conceal.

I share my own story too. Ovarian cysts since 15. One ovary reconstructed. Migraines. Inflammation. And how switching my environment, not just my diet, changed everything. If you have kids, pets, or a body, this episode is for you.

I have always believed that "curiosity heals," and today I am sitting down with one of the most talked-about women on the internet: Sadia Khan, PhD, MBA. You’ve likely seen her viral clips on TikTok or Instagram, and while she is no stranger to controversy, I wanted to peel back the layers and hear her side of the story—from her "big dirty secret" involving a years-long setup to the truth about her background as a psychology teacher.

We dive deep into the differences between Eastern and Western family values, why "similarity feels like settling" in modern dating, and the biological wiring that makes women crave dominance and protection. Sadia doesn't hold back on the "soy boy" crisis, the toxicity of weaponizing intimacy, and why she believes a man's most important trait isn't his height or his money—it’s his intelligence and his ability to see through manipulation. Whether you agree with her or not, this conversation is a masterclass in understanding the hidden dynamics of the modern home.

I sit down with the incredible Kris Fade (of Dubai Bling and Virgin Radio) to discuss everything he’s never fully revealed. I was a little intimidated to interview the man who built an empire from nothing in the UAE, but the authenticity we unlocked is what I needed and what you need to hear.We dive deep into the brutally honest, challenging realities of divorce, the pressures of co-parenting, and what it took to become a better husband the second time around. Kris shares the true, crippling story of his battle with anxiety and depression, what it was like hitting rock bottom, and the moment he realized the medical system failed him with unnecessary prescriptions.You’ll hear our unscripted, controversial discussion about biohacking: the truth about Peptides (BPC-157) and TRT (Testosterone Replacement Therapy), and how he got his mind and body in the best shape of his life at 45. This isn't just a talk about success; it's about the relentless drive, the importance of loyalty, the fear of the unknown (from xenophobia to health), and why everything he does is for his children.
