Well, thank you for that. So my story is, I mean, I've always, since I was young, been kind of like, I was like a science kid, right? I was always really kind of geeky into science and I studied physiology in university and And I was a fitness instructor. And at some point, I kind of got sidetracked and ended up on the corporate world. But I never let go of the whole science piece, right?

And at some point, I kind of got sidetracked and ended up on the corporate world. But I never let go of the whole science piece, right?
Like, I remember when university was over. saying to someone, I miss it. Like I miss learning. I miss the, I miss that being deep into, into that human physiology thing. And that was an extremely articulate way of putting that, wasn't it? Anyway. And, and, and so I've always, and because, and by, by staying, keeping a hand in fitness and, my whole career, it always kept my toe in the water.

And about 15 years ago, I just felt like it was time for a career change and it was time for me to go back to that thing that I never stopped missing. And so I went back to school and I became a holistic nutritionist. And then I got... And by then, like, I think that this was really early days of, like, Dave Asprey and the Bulletproof Diet and Rob Wolf with the Paleo Diet, Mark Sisson with Primo.

You know, like, that whole... All those guys were coming up, and I kind of was really interested in that. And within a couple years of graduating from... From nutrition school, Dave announced his first cohort of the Bulletproof Coach Training Program at the time. And I just, on a whim, I just signed up. I was like, I need to know more about this stuff.

And that was really kind of like the gate that pushed me out into this space. And, you know, and after that, it's, you know what it's like, like you're learning and learning and it's one thing to the next to the next. And then I came across peptides a few years ago and I was like, wow, this is wild.

And, and, you know, and I almost turned my back on it because my husband was like, dude, you keep going in different directions. Like you need to pick one thing and commit to it. And I was like, yeah, but this was really cool. He's like, no, nope, nope. You've got like, you know, you've got, what did he say? He said, you've got shiny object syndrome. You need to like focus on one thing.

And he's right. But I have since reframed my shiny object syndrome as I'm a, I'm a, I'm a perpetual learner. And this peptide space has been just the most incredible journey. And what happened very shortly after I came across peptides is I started a community on Facebook. pretty much devoted to peptides in a way just for me to learn more, but also to connect with other people in the space.

And then about a year and a half after that, I launched the podcast. And the podcast is what, like the Facebook community kind of It started to tap into this love of learning and teaching that I have.
