What does it actually take to rebuild your body, your business, and your belief in yourself, from absolute zero?
Anthony Lolli knows. He was a millionaire at 23, running 800 agents across 100+ New York City real estate locations. He had the Rolls-Royce. The mansion. 50 Cent filming commercials in his backyard.
Then came his two-year-old daughter, who looked up at her 315-pound father and said: "Daddy, you're fat. I don't want you to die."
That sentence changed everything.
TereZa Lolli came to America from Armenia with $300 and a fire that doesn't quit. A piano prodigy, a ping pong champion, an Idol finalist — she graduated at the top of her class, turned down a prestigious corporate offer, and bet everything on her own terms. After having children, her hormones collapsed and her body stopped cooperating. Her response? Become a two-time bikini world champion and launch one of the fastest-growing independent health media platforms on the planet.
Together, Anthony and TereZa are the founders of Biohack Yourself Media — producers of more than a dozen award-winning health documentaries and the exclusive health press at the MAHA Inaugural Ball. Their children, Love and Legend, are child actors who — guided by their mother — invested their own earnings in real estate before their tenth birthdays.
In this episode, Shawn French sits down with Anthony and TereZa to talk about:
The biohacking protocols that transformed Anthony's body and mindset
How TereZa reversed hormonal collapse and became a world champion
Longevity, healthspan, and the testing that actually matters
Sleep optimization and stress as a silent killer
Biological dentistry and what your mouth is telling your body
Raising children to think like entrepreneurs and investors
The lawsuits, the fall, the federal racketeering claim — and what really happened
What Biohack Yourself Media is building and why it matters now
This is not a highlight reel. This is the whole story — the rises, the falls, and the relentless determination to rebuild.

Determination. Adversity. Discipline. Mindset.
Most people want to heal—but very few are willing to face the adversity it takes to rebuild trust, set boundaries, and develop the discipline to choose themselves. Real growth happens when your mindset shifts from surviving to taking control.
In this episode, Jana Kramer opens up about healing from trauma, learning to trust herself again, and building the determination and mental toughness required to stop repeating the same patterns. This conversation is about developing high performance habits, choosing consistency over motivation, and having the courage to say no—even when it’s uncomfortable.
If you’ve ever struggled with trust, boundaries, or walking away from what no longer serves you, this episode will challenge your mindset, strengthen your discipline, and show you how to move forward with real determination through adversity.
Key Takeaways
Adversity is where real healing begins—it forces growth and self-awareness
Determination is choosing yourself, even when it’s uncomfortable
Discipline is what keeps you from falling back into old patterns
Your mindset determines whether you stay stuck or move forward
Boundaries are built through mental toughness, not guilt
Consistency over motivation is key to long-term healing
Trusting yourself is the foundation of real confidence and freedom

Most people see success, but they don’t see the adversity, discipline, and relentless determination it takes to get there. What looks like overnight success is really years of rejection that build the mindset and mental toughness required to last.
In this episode, Tony Goldwyn shares the reality of breaking into Hollywood, the power of committing fully, and how adversity shapes your determination, discipline, and long-term success. This is about developing high performance habits, choosing consistency over motivation, and staying locked in when most people would quit.
If you’ve ever felt like quitting, this conversation will challenge your mindset, strengthen your mental toughness, and remind you that adversity is the path—not the obstacle.
Key Takeaways
Most successful people fail far more than they win—but determination keeps them going
The difference is they stay disciplined and don’t stop when it gets hard
Commitment eliminates “what if” and builds real mental toughness
Adversity isn’t a stop sign—it’s where determination is built
Purpose fuels consistency more than motivation ever will
If you don’t go all in, you’ll never fully test your potential or your mindset
