Fifteen years ago, the Universe provided me a powerful kick in the pants, prompting me to undergo both a physical and mindset transformation. An extreme makeover, if you will – inside and out. Part of that included a hair transplant. It made a big difference in my confidence and how I held myself. A few years later would come my spiritual awakening, but this physical and mental reboot was an important precursor to the spiritual one. Bottom line: the hair transplant was literally life-changing for me.

Knowing first-hand how life changing this technology can be, I’m excited to bring onto today’s show one of the world’s experts in hair transplants and hair restoration, Dr. Alan Bauman.

I met Dr. Bauman through one of his famous patients, Dave Asprey, the godfather of biohacking, whom I’ve also had as a guest on this show.

In our discussion, Dr. Bauman explores the spectrum of alternative and conventional modalities that he employs to biohack baldness—from cutting-edge laser therapies and regenerative treatments to the power of meditation, nutrition, and mindfulness. He shares insights into the latest advancements enhancing hair transplants and talks about how nurturing the body's inherent healing abilities contributes to overall health and recovery.

What if the very foods we think are healthy are actually harming us? Dr. Steven Gundry, a renowned surgeon and nutrition expert, joins us to upend our assumptions about diet and longevity.

Early in his distinguished medical career, Dr. Gundry pioneered life-saving surgical techniques. However, he soon realized he could prevent many procedures from even happening by teaching patients how to eat. His extensive research revealed surprising truths about foods, like lectins, and the vital role of our microbiome.

In our wide-ranging discussion, Dr. Gundry shares insights from his newest book, Gut Check, showing how our gut bacteria control most aspects of health, including immunity, mood, and even cravings. He explains the profound power microbes have to harm or heal us, depending on the makeup of our internal ecosystem. He tells the story of how a patient's dramatic heart disease reversal led him to connect diet, supplements, and health, and he discusses the latest science on how leaky gut drives conditions like autoimmunity and Alzheimer's.

It's truly an illuminating discussion of the paradoxes of modern nutrition. Dr. Gundry offers simple dietary strategies based on evolutionary biology that can help remedy chronic diseases, reverse aging, and transform lives (all disclaimers apply; please consult your physician, etc.).

Music is a universal language that taps into our shared humanity. Unfortunately, a lot of us figure out—or are told—early on that we are not musical, so we shut ourselves off to exploring our musical creativity.

My guest on today’s show wondered—what if this creative capability could be revealed in all people, even those who believe themselves to be "unmusical"?

Neil Moore is a pioneering Australian educator and the founder of Simply Music. His breakthrough methodology upends traditional music education. By meeting students where they are, Neil helps them rapidly connect with their innate musicality. Learners quickly gain the skills needed for self-expression through song.

In this enlightening discussion, Neil explains how music literally grows the brain by increasing neural connectivity. He talks about how musicianship is "neurological nutrition" that builds creative capability, and how his method unlocks musical ability in adults up to 100 years old. Neil shares stories from his remarkable journey in shifting limiting beliefs about talent and he gives us tools to unleash our creative potential. He notes that as humanity rushes into a future shaped by accelerating technology, creative thinking allows us to dream boldly and meet new challenges. So without any further ado, on with the show!
