  • Metabolic health through a woman’s life cycles with Prof. Christian Breymann

    48:59|
    In this episode of One Thirty Biohacks, we’re back with Prof. Christian Breymann — this time to talk about metabolic health as one of the most important foundations for long-term longevity, and why it becomes even more relevant across the hormonal shifts a woman goes through.We explore how metabolic health intersects with perimenopause and menopause, and why symptoms are often misunderstood when we don’t look at the full picture: blood sugar regulation, inflammation, body composition, energy production, and the way hormones and metabolism constantly influence each other.We also touch on PCOS (and the evolving terminology and understanding of the condition), and why it’s often a metabolic story as much as it is a reproductive one.Finally, we dive into a topic that deserves far more attention: iron deficiency — what it can look like in real life, why it’s so common, and how countries like Switzerland use high-dose iron infusions as standard practice (while it’s still far less common in Denmark). A conversation with real takeaways and a few perspectives worth learning from.About Prof. Christian BreymannProf. Breymann is a Professor of Obstetrics and Gynaecology based in Zurich, Switzerland, with a long-standing clinical focus on women’s health across life stages.

  • Can we really change our lives by changing the stories we tell ourselves?

    01:06:46|
    In this episode of One Thirty Biohacks, I sit down with psychotherapist, speaker, and founder of Compassionate Inquiry, Stephanie Canavesio, for a conversation that challenged some of my deepest assumptions about healing, human potential, and personal transformation.We explore how our unconscious patterns, beliefs, and emotional wounds shape the way we experience the world — and how many of the limitations we carry today may simply be old narratives we have never questioned.What makes this episode especially unique is that it became incredibly personal. In a completely unplanned moment, Stephanie guided me through a live somatic exploration of a recent trigger, allowing listeners to witness what it actually looks like when we move beyond intellectual understanding and into embodied healing.Together we discuss:• Why awareness alone is often not enough to create change• How our nervous system stores old experiences and emotional patterns• The connection between childhood adaptations and adult behaviours• Compassionate Inquiry and the power of asking different questions• Human potential, self-sabotage, and the stories that keep us stuck• The difference between understanding a trigger and truly processing it• A live, unscripted somatic healing session around one of my own recent triggersThis is a conversation about what becomes possible when we stop identifying with our past and start becoming curious about the stories we have been living by.If you’ve ever felt trapped in recurring patterns, emotional reactions, or versions of yourself that no longer serve you, this episode might offer a completely different perspective.
