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.
"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"
