Is cortisol really the enemy? Or have we completely misunderstood this essential hormone? In this fascinating conversation, Dr. Erin Kinney breaks down what healthy cortisol should actually look like, how chronic stress can leave us stuck in a cycle of exhaustion, and the surprising signs that your nervous system may be dysregulated. We share our own burnout experiences as we explore the connections between cortisol, blood sugar, thyroid function, perimenopause, caffeine, intermittent fasting, and even fasted workouts. Dr. Kinney also reveals why multitasking, emotional suppression, and stealth infections can keep the body in stress mode—and what we can do to strengthen our “relax muscle.” If you’ve ever felt exhausted but wired, relied on caffeine to get through the day, or wondered why your body isn’t responding to all the “healthy” things you’re doing, this episode is a must-listen!Dr. Erin Kinney is a Naturopathic Doctor, speaker, and podcast host who helps stressed-out patients balance their hormones, improve their mood, and restore their energy. She runs a private practice in Annapolis, Maryland, specializing in chronic health conditions related to hormonal and nervous-system imbalances, and has guided more than 7,000 people back to vibrant health through her clinic, workshops, retreats, and online programs.

In this fascinating episode, we sit down with Dr. Jeff McNairy, Chief Medical Officer at Rythmia and a pioneer at the intersection of Western psychology and indigenous plant medicine, to explore the transformative potential of ayahuasca. Dr. Jeff explains how this powerful medicine may influence the brain, including synaptic plasticity, while emphasizing the critical importance of safety, screening, intention, and the “set and setting” surrounding the experience. He also shares insights into trauma, women’s emotional health, supporting highly sensitive people, and why some individuals may be drawn to plant medicine after conventional approaches haven’t delivered lasting results.

We’re challenging the idea that your gut is something you need to “fix” and exploring why symptoms like bloating, constipation, diarrhea, and gas may actually be signals rather than signs that something is broken.

Diving into the principals of the book "Food Therapy" by Luis Mojica

What if your cravings, blood sugar, and relationship with food are telling you something deeper about your nervous system? In this fascinating conversation, Luis Mojica—somatic therapist, trauma nutritionist, and USA Today bestselling author of Food Therapy—reveals how stress, trauma, cortisol, and glucose are intricately connected, and why healing may require more than simply changing what’s on your plate. We dive into hypervigilance, co-regulation, and somatic experiencing, including a powerful LIVE somatic exercise to help you connect with your body and create a greater sense of safety within. Plus, Luis challenges conventional ideas about “healthy” foods, explains how food can become a tool for regulating stress, and even debunks some surprising myths about beans.

Luis Mojica is a somatic therapist, trauma nutritionist, and founder of Holistic Life Navigation, where he teaches thousands of people around the world how to recover from stress and trauma. He uses whole foods, self-inquiry, and Somatic Experiencing as tools to find safety within yourself. Through Holistic Life Navigation, Luis offers online courses and webinars, in-person workshops and retreats, trauma-informed support groups, a monthly membership and newsletter, a weekly podcast, and a popular YouTube channel filled with insights and interviews. Luis’ first book, Food Therapy, was released in April of 2026, and is a USA Today bestseller.

What happens when you stop outsourcing your health and start learning how to think for yourself? In this powerful conversation, Dr. Stephanie Rimka challenges the way we’ve been taught to approach health, healing, and even our own bodies. We dive into medical gaslighting, health sovereignty, nervous system regulation, autism spectrum, biohacking, and why the right intervention at the wrong time can sometimes do more harm than good. We also explore the deeper biology of safety, femininity, intimacy, relationships, and what it takes to reconnect with yourself after years of overriding your own signals. Dr. Rimka offers a radically different perspective on health: one that asks us to stop blindly following protocols, understand our own physiology, and learn how to think rather than simply being told what to do. If you’ve ever felt dismissed by the medical system, disconnected from your body, stuck in survival mode, or overwhelmed by conflicting health advice, this conversation will challenge you to rethink what it really means to take your health back.Dr. Stephanie Rimka is a clinician, educator, and speaker specializing in mitochondrial function, nervous system regulation, and the biological foundations of brain health, mental health, and human performance. With nearly three decades of clinical experience working with conditions such as ADHD, autism, anxiety, depression, and complex neurodevelopmental challenges, her work focuses on helping practitioners and audiences understand why conventional protocols often fail and how to think in systems rather than isolated interventions.She is a founding faculty member of Peptide University, where she teaches clinicians worldwide how to apply advanced therapies through the lens of mitochondrial physiology, signaling, and clinical sequencing. Her approach integrates bioenergetics, trauma physiology, and metabolic health to create a more precise and effective model for restoring energy, cognitive function, and emotional resilience.Dr. Rimka is also the author of Receive: The Dance of Feminine Power, and the creator of multiple educational programs exploring the intersection of biology, identity, and human potential. Her work challenges reductionist approaches to health and emphasizes the importance of sequence, structure, and system-wide coherence, particularly in the treatment of chronic mental health and neurodevelopmental conditions.SHOW NOTES:0:38 Welcome to the show!2:33 About Dr. Stephanie Rimka3:21 Welcome to the podcast!4:01 How she defines health5:28 How we lose our sovereignty10:26 Medical gaslighting12:45 Renee’s story16:20 Learning how to think18:35 Nervous system &amp; decision-making20:53 The problem with biohacking25:30 Burning man28:13 Parenting children with autism spectrum disorder33:14 Restoring intimacy &amp; sex37:56 Balancing masculine &amp; feminine in relationships39:58 Strategies to decrease dissociation &amp; increase creativity46:45 Bioenergetics &amp; nature somatics51:49 Permission to be lazy56:47 Brain wave support1:00:49 When to use biohacking tech1:06:30 Creating a healthier home1:11:15 Beauty is safety1:13:05 Botox issues1:20:20 How she learned to think1:22:43 How to find her1:31:30 Thanks for tuning in!RESOURCES:Website: <a href="http://www.drrimka.com" rel="nofollow">www.drrimka.com</a>IG: <a href="http://www.instagram.com/dr_rimka" rel="nofollow">@dr_rimka</a>LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/drrimka" rel="nofollow">@drstephanierimka</a> Advertising Inquiries: <a href='https://redcircle.com/brands'>https://redcircle.com/brands</a>

Biohacking hormones through perimenopause

Before blaming every symptom on perimenopause, it’s worth asking a bigger question: what if your body is trying to tell you something deeper? In this episode, we sit down with Bria Gadd, The Period Whisperer, to unpack the root causes behind hormonal chaos, exploring everything from gut health and adrenal dysfunction to blood sugar, endotoxins, and functional lab testing. Bria shares why supporting your body before jumping into detoxes or hormone replacement therapy can make all the difference, and how working with the right practitioner helps cut through the overwhelming amount of perimenopause advice online. The conversation also dives into peptides, changing menstrual cycles, birth control, and the surprising role that stress, sleep, and even a lack of joy can play in how you feel during midlife. If you&#39;re navigating perimenopause, or want to prepare for it, this episode is packed with practical, root-cause strategies to help you regain your energy, balance your hormones, and thrive through the transition.

The conversation also dives into the rise of AI in healthcare, exploring both the incredible potential of AI-driven insights and the limitations of relying too heavily on technology without understanding the bigger picture of your health. Throughout the episode, we share our personal lab recommendations, funny real-life stories, and practical advice for implementing health recommendations on your own.

In this episode, Kyle Hulbert shares his powerful journey from struggling with anxiety, depression, alcoholism, and burnout to uncovering the hidden root causes behind his health challenges: heavy metal toxicity and low testosterone. He dives into the importance of optimizing health upstream of hormones, the dangers of mercury exposure, and the transformative role detoxification played in reclaiming his vitality. Kyle breaks down advanced therapies like chelation, TPE, EBOO, ozone 10-pass, and methylene blue IVs while also emphasizing the foundational lifestyle practices that support safe and effective detoxification. The conversation explores common symptoms women experience with toxicity, testing for Lyme disease and biotoxins, and the biggest mistakes people make when starting their healing journey. Kyle Hulbert is the CEO of the Longevity Center, co-host of the Longevity Unlocked podcast, and a wellness and integrative nutrition coach specializing in detoxification. After years of battling anxiety, depression, and alcoholism while living in Dubai and completing his master’s degree, Kyle discovered that heavy metal toxicity and low testosterone were at the root of his struggles. His deep dive into detox, integrative health, and biohacking led him to earn multiple coaching certifications and ultimately leave his family business to open the Longevity Center.
