  • Hey besties! Welcome to another solo episode of Biohacking Bestie. Today, we're diving deep into your most personal, raw, and real questions—because let’s face it, we all have struggles that deserve compassion, not shame. From navigating body image and overcoming emotional eating to the complexities of sex and self-worth, we’re getting into it all.


    One DM really touched my heart: a woman shared how her boyfriend's comment about her body shattered her confidence. It’s something many of us can relate to—feeling like our worth is tied to how others perceive us. But guess what? You’re an absolute QUEEN. Your challenges do not define your value. In this episode, I’ll show you how to flip the script and turn these experiences into opportunities for growth and radical self-love.


    I also answer your burning questions about health, nutrition, and body biohacking—like how to track macros without the stress, deal with cellulite, and why I’m obsessed with my air fryer (yes, even in biohacking, we can indulge wisely!).


    Here’s what you’ll learn in this empowering episode:

    How to let go of shame and reclaim your confidenceRewiring your subconscious for lasting self-love and body acceptanceThe truth behind emotional eating and how to break the cycleMy best biohacking tips for boosting your confidence and body imageThe simple (and stress-free) way to track your health without obsession

    This episode is all about you stepping into your power, owning your worth, and learning to navigate life with grace—even when challenges pop up. Let’s work together to ditch the shame, embrace our bodies, and rewrite the stories we’ve been telling ourselves.


    Listen now to tap into the unstoppable, beautiful force that is YOU! 💥


    P.S. I’m always here for you! Got a question you want me to answer in the next episode? Drop me a DM or hit me up on Instagram @aggie @biohackingbestie

  • Real talk: There is a long-standing issue with misinformation in women's health, particularly concerning hormonal health and the historical dismissal of women's medicine by male physicians. In this episode of Biohacking Bestie, my guest Dr. Jolene Brighten not only addresses this but also dives into how society has normalized severe period pain and premenstrual mood swings, and how these symptoms should actually be seen as warning signs rather than the norm.


    Dr. Brighten will also explore the often-misunderstood signals our bodies send us about hormonal imbalances, the critical impact of lifestyle and environmental factors on fertility and scientific findings that will change the way you approach your wellness


    Dr. Jolene Brighten is board certified in naturopathic endocrinology and a certified sex counselor. Dr. Brighten is the author of Is This Normal, a non-judgemental guide to creating hormone balance, eliminating unwanted symptoms, and building the sexual desire you crave. She also wrote Beyond The Pill, which was the first book that introduced me to her work. Dr. Brighten empowers women worldwide to take control of their health and their hormones.
