Max Lugavere is a filmmaker, TV personality, health and science journalist, and brain food expert. Max is also the author of Genius Foods, the host of The Genius Life podcast, and the director of the upcoming film Bread Head, the first-ever documentary about dementia prevention through diet and lifestyle. Topics Discussed with Max Lugavere: The out-of-date notion that there’s a one-size-fits-all diet Condescension and cynicism in the fitness world How to rid your home of endocrine-disrupting chemicals Biohacking the iron levels in your blood How bringing your own condiments to restaurants will save you money and improve your health Embracing consistency and striving for progress Spiritual atheism How our language colors the world The future of personalized medicine Daniel Eisenman graduated Pre-Med from Emory University with a BS – an ironic acronym, he’s come to learn – in Biology. He even took the MCAT and was well on his way to medical school. But before continuing down the path of "NORMAL," as pretty much everyone in his life advised him to do, he decided to take a year off. That year off has now turned into a decade of breaking normal, embarking on adventures throughout all 50 states and 20+ countries. Through his journey and experiences, he found that so many people seem to be trapped in self-imposed prisons, keeping a lid on their genius, joy, and growth – and that’s when the idea for Breaking Normal was born, as a way for people to free themselves from this self-imposed prison. Daniel now travels the world as a keynote speaker and facilitator of Breaking Normal Experiences, which are radical retreats and workshops – or, as he likes to call them, playshops – based on the principles of raw honesty and emotional freedom. Topics Discussed with Daniel Eisenman: Just because something works for you (like a new diet, supplement, or biohack) doesn’t mean it will work for others Why you might be hurting your health by eating food that’s out of season Why Daniel’s favorite and free biohack is breathing (correctly) The magic of edible mushrooms How to focus on your vibrancy Recontextualizing negativity Being health conscious (without becoming neurotic) Combining unconditional love with radical honesty Mia Magik is a soul hacker. Yeah, I’m just gonna let how cool that is sink in for a moment. So, what does that mean? It means she helps people come into contact with their deepest truth, expression, and magic through ancient wisdom integrated with modern techniques – or, in simpler terms, she uses every tool in her arsenal to help others see that magic is real. Topics Discussed with Mia Magik: Magic is real The myth that pharmaceutical medication is necessary Toxic shame, judgement, and separation The ultimate biohack: navigating a roadmap through your own consciousness Connecting with dragon energy Listening to your intuition and Goddess Earth
