If you want to live longer—and better—this episode is for you.

Dr. Matt Chalmers joins me to unpack what real wellness looks like and why the standard advice is letting people down. He breaks down hormones, fasting, blood testing, psychedelics, and what you actually need to do to optimise your body and brain for the long haul.

We cover the tactical and the transformational—science-backed, no fluff.

In this episode, you’ll learn:
• The 4 pillars of true wellness—and why most people only address one
• What blood markers actually matter (hint: it’s not just cholesterol)
• Why calorie counting is outdated and what to track instead
• How to fast without losing muscle—and why collagen is a game-changer
• Why your hormones might be fine on paper… but still be wrecking your health
• The overlooked benefits of cannabis and psychedelics in healing trauma and anxiety
• How to future-proof your physical health with strength, stability and balance
• The essential supplements for plant-based diets (especially amino acids + B vitamins)

This episode is a wake-up call.
