Keegan Downer (Founder of mindfulMEDS) shares how he went from alcohol addiction and a near-suicidal breaking point, to recovery and to building one of Canada's most recognized microdosing education brands, and why psilocybin doesn't have to be "woo." We also get super practical: What microdosing actually feels like day-to-day, why it can hit women differently (especially moms), how psilocybin compares to SSRIs (Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor) when it comes to emotional processing, and why "wine o'clock" culture is quietly keeping so many women stuck in a stress-and-numb cycle.

In Day 2 of The Feminine Longevity Shift free live masterclass, I unpack why so many women are doing "everything right". Yet still feel inflamed, exhausted, or disconnected. This isn't about more discipline or optimization. It's about recognizing how misalignment shows up in the female body and what actually supports long-term vitality, hormonal resilience, and healthy aging. Join my NEW private community at thelongherlife.com for ongoing protocols, live coaching, and deeper support. I TALK ABOUT: 05:45 - Connecting women's longevity to intuition and low-grade stress you don't notice until you feel it 07:10 - Recognizing the systems that train women to override their needs and intuition 13:10 - Using a full-body scan to treat your symptoms like feedback, not "normal aging" 21:45 - Hormone burnout, resentment, and loss of pleasure through the sacral/womb lens 27:30 - Linking self-worth and productivity to metabolism, inflammation, and "proving energy" 33:20 - Emotional labor as a real physical load that shows up in the shoulders, chest, and immunity 41:20 - Breaking the overthinking loop and returning to the body when you live "in your head" 51:25 - From survival identity to thriving identity with three reflection prompts RESOURCES: Join my NEW private community at thelongherlife.com for ongoing protocols, live coaching, and deeper support.

In this free live masterclass, I connect the dots between women's healthspan, chronic stress, and the biological cost of living out of alignment. Even when your habits look "healthy." I talk about why the longevity conversation has been dominated by male-centered frameworks, and what happens when women override their intuition for years (in work, relationships, family dynamics, and daily decisions). This is an invitation to stop treating intuition like a "soft" topic—and start seeing it as a health input that shapes inflammation, hormones, nervous system regulation, and long-term vitality. Join my NEW private community at thelongherlife.com for ongoing protocols, live coaching, and deeper support. I TALK ABOUT: 10:05 - Setting the intention for women's health, longevity, and intuition 13:40 - How "doing everything right" can still accelerate aging 15:20 - Why women live longer but spend more years in poor health 17:45 - Linking chronic stress to inflammation, epigenetics, and hormone disruption 19:15 - A simple self-check to measure how aligned your life feels right now 25:35 - Distinguishing body-led intuition from self-led intuition 27:20 - How overriding needs trains the nervous system into threat mode 30:55 - Guided prompts to identify what your body and life actually need right now 46:25 - Reframing longevity as safety, not force RESOURCES: Join my NEW private community at thelongherlife.com for ongoing protocols, live coaching, and deeper support.

Dr. Holly Duckworth (PhD) shares how she went from mechanical engineering → psychology → deep hypnosis work (QHHT), and why "higher self" doesn't have to be woo. Especially when you understand how fear, trauma responses, and nervous system dysregulation run the show. We also get super practical: How to recognize dysregulation (hello, sensory sensitivity + road rage), why "therapy doesn't work" for some people until the body is regulated first, and how gratitude + nature can become daily tools for coming back to safety.

Modern longevity culture can make "the perfect protocol" feel like the answer—especially when you're a busy mom who wants more energy now and a longer healthspan. Dan Pardi from Qualia (code: BRITTANY) breaks down what's changed in longevity science over the last 25 years—and why "healthspan" (feeling strong, clear, and capable for longer) matters more than simply living longer. We get into the real trade-offs of fasting, protein, and vitality, plus a clear explanation of what stem cells actually do, why they decline with age, and how "stem cell wellness" differs from clinic-based stem cell therapy.

Modern women are doing the most—tracking, supplementing, optimizing—yet still feel tired, inflamed, and strangely off. And sometimes the issue isn't another protocol. It's the life you're living. Queen Oluwatobiloba explores women's holistic wellness through a lens we don't talk about enough: alignment. We unpack how your environment can mirror your internal season, why "being stuck" drains your vitality, and how discomfort is often the clearest sign you're choosing something true. We also go into motherhood as an initiation (and why mom guilt is so biologically sticky), plus the missing longevity conversation: no supplement can override the relationship, job, or lifestyle that keeps your nervous system in survival mode. WE TALK ABOUT: 07:40 - Womb power as the courage muscle for radical change 12:45 - Differentiating sensing from feeling for clearer decisions 14:00 - Nature archetypes as a map for energy, boundaries, and burnout risk 19:35 - Motherhood revealing your true nature and unmet support needs 22:20 - Sacrifice, support, and why moms hit depletion so fast 26:35 - Releasing guilt and shame as a hormonal + energetic reset 29:40 - Womb connection practice to identify what you're carrying 38:30 - When "fixing the symptom" hides unresolved root patterns 40:45 - Longevity through value alignment and living by your blueprint 45:00 - Why biohacking can't override a misaligned life 53:55 - Choosing discomfort now to protect vitality later SPONSORS: Join me in Costa Rica for Optimize Her, a 5-night luxury women's retreat in Costa Rica with yoga, healing rituals, and biohacking workshops—only 12 spots available.

Modern success can humble your nervous system fast. Especially when your life looks "perfect" on paper, but your body feels flat, restless, or quietly done. Silvia Resnik unpacks the hidden ache so many high-achieving women carry: doing everything "right" and still feeling unfulfilled. We explore the subtle signs of misalignment, how productivity becomes a coping strategy, and why nervous system safety is often the missing piece behind burnout and people-pleasing. We also get into what it actually looks like to rebuild self-trust without blowing up your whole life—tiny, brave choices that bring you back to your truth, your joy, and a life that feels like yours again.

Modern motherhood can make "detox" feel like the answer—especially when you're exhausted and convinced you just need the right protocol to get your body back. Eva Hooft unpacks why the do-more, cleanse-harder mindset can keep women stuck, and how real healing starts with safety, not force. We talk detox through a nervous system + mineral lens: how stress shuts down digestion and drainage, why aggressive "pulling" can backfire when you're depleted, and what it looks like to rebuild your terrain with simple, foundational support. We also get real about the emotional side—when wellness becomes obsession, why slowing down can be the most powerful biohack, and how simplicity helps you get your energy and resilience back for the long game.

Michelle Skaff shares how one "cellular biohack" pulled her out of chronic pain, and why she believes oxidative stress is the quiet root of aging, inflammation, and so many chronic issues.

Motherhood can humble your nervous system fast, especially when sleep is unpredictable and everyone has an opinion. Lindsey Simcik (Almost 30) opens up about what it looks like to trust your instincts as a mom, even when you're tired, unsure, or doing things differently than the moms around you.
