Biohacking is OUT, biological living is IN. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Laura DeCesaris, a functional medicine health strategist who specializes in women’s health and high performance. Today’s conversation is for all my fellow high performing, ambitious women who want to optimize performance in business — without having to sacrifice their health or wellbeing. Dr. Laura breaks down exactly how to align your work with the different phases of your menstrual cycle (including the best time to ask for a raise), the top wellness trends to pass on (Castor oil in the belly button? Mouth taping? Red light therapy?), and practical ways to connect to your body on a deeper level so you can truly THRIVE.
