In today’s episode of One Thirty Biohacks, we sit down with Jan Svensson, co-founder of Pwr.8, for an inspiring conversation about movement, mindset, community and what it really means to create a healthy, balanced life.
Jan shares his personal journey from a challenging childhood and early life experiences to building Power 8 — a space rooted in movement, energy, aesthetics, connection and holistic wellbeing. We talk about how trauma can be transformed into purpose, and how curiosity, positivity and the ability to see beauty in life — even during difficult times can become powerful tools for healing and growth.
We explore the philosophy behind Power 8, where health is not only about physical performance, but also about balance, belonging and creating spaces where people feel welcome, accepted and motivated to move.
We talk about:
• Jan’s personal journey and transformation
• The evolution from Powerhouse to Power 8
• Why movement can support both physical and mental health
• The importance of positivity, curiosity and beauty in everyday life
• Creating inclusive fitness spaces that feel welcoming, not intimidating
• How community and connection can become part of the healing process
• Finding balance between the spiritual and material sides of life
This episode is a reminder that health is not only something we do — it is also how we choose to see life, how we move through challenges, and the people and environments we surround ourselves with.
As Jan says: “Focus on the beauty in life, even in difficult times.”
