Angela is joined by Digital Transformist, Optimal Human Performance Specialist, Best-selling Author & Biohacker,Teemu Arina,  for an eye-opening discussion about the dark side of biohacking and the unconventional topic of the health and wellness industry.

Teemu challenges the notion of constant optimisation and perfection, suggesting that many people in this industry have unresolved traumas or underlying issues that led to their health problems in the first place, and highlights the dangers of extreme behaviours and the need for balance and self-reflection in the pursuit of health and wellness.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
The health and wellness industry often focuses on perfection and optimization, but it is important to recognize and address the underlying traumas or unresolved issues that may have led to health problems in the first place.
Many health influencers and experts in the industry are wounded healers who have overcome their own health issues and now dedicate their time to helping others. However, there can be a mismatch between their public persona and their true selves, leading to feelings of loneliness and inauthenticity.
Extreme biohacking practices, such as strict diets or excessive exercise, can become control mechanisms and addictions that replace previous unhealthy coping mechanisms. It is important to find a balance and address the root causes of health issues rather than relying solely on extreme measures.
Personal narratives and identity play a significant role in how individuals approach health and wellness. It is important to examine the stories we tell ourselves and others about who we are and what we value, as these narratives can shape our behaviours and choices.

BEST MOMENTS 

"The whole health and wellness industry is quite interesting. The way how I see it is that people have some kind of trauma or unresolved things that often led to the health problems in the first place."

"But what if there's a mismatch between who you are, actually, really, and the persona or the avatar or the illusion you created? That can be a pretty lonely place."

"We have all these biohacking gurus, like, you know, I don't want to say names, but if you take, for example, Dave Asprey, who's been kind of the leading figure of this whole movement, what he has been all about is better, faster, stronger."

"So what happens there is like, you are, you have less wiggling room, you have less kind of buffer, in a sense, when you're burning the candle from both ends"
