Shownotes

The biohacking industry is worth $60 billion, and it is built on making you feel like you are never doing enough. If you have ever felt guilty for skipping a cold plunge, stressed about your cortisol from drinking coffee, or wondered whether your 15-step morning routine is actually helping, this episode challenges the belief that more optimization equals better health.

Mason Mahoney and Audrey Adams are fitness coaches who have coached over 2,500 women through their company Metabolic Makeover Academy. In this episode they share how their own biohacking phases backfired, why health anxiety disguised as wellness is doing real damage, and the eight foundational things that actually move the needle for women's health. This one is for the ambitious woman who is doing everything "right" and still feeling behind.
