Biohacking with Brittany
I’m finally sharing my full peptide journey: how it started after weaning Callahan, why MOTS-c was my first, and the exact stack I’m using right now for energy, skin, and longevity. The peptide world is still so bro-dominated, and women are being left out of a conversation that could genuinely change how we move through fertility, postpartum, perimenopause, and beyond. In this episode, I’m breaking down why peptides aren’t supplements, why cycling matters, and how your protocol should shift across every season of womanhood. I’m also opening up about postpartum anxiety, the tools...

Aimee Raupp, fertility expert, licensed acupuncturist, herbalist, and author of Yes, You Can Get Pregnant, shares a more hopeful and expansive conversation around fertility, especially for women in their late 30s and 40s. She explains why fertility is about far more than age, and how inflammation, immune health, sperm quality, uterine health, mitochondrial function, and lifestyle all shape the bigger picture. This episode looks at the fear-based messaging women are still given around fertility and challenges the idea that turning 35 automatically means your chances are over. We...

Priyanka Jain, co-founder and CEO of (code: BRITTANY), shares how being dismissed by the medical system led her to help transform women’s health through better vaginal microbiome data. We talk about why the vaginal microbiome matters, how dysbiosis can drive inflammation even without obvious symptoms, and why women still face outdated standards of care. We also cover recurrent UTIs, yeast infections, fertility, pregnancy, postpartum, perimenopause, probiotics, and at-home testing. This is a practical conversation for women who want to better understand their bodies, stop brushing off...

Dr. Natalie Crawford (board-certified OBGYN + REI fertility specialist) shares why fertility starts in “trimester zero,” how inflammation impacts egg + sperm quality, and how to avoid pricey IVF add-ons that aren’t backed by solid science. You’ll walk away with: The key labs to track, the biggest lifestyle levers for both partners (including cannabis), and the hormone-testing mistakes that can accidentally act like birth control.

Keegan Downer (Founder of ) shares how he went from alcohol addiction and a near-suicidal breaking point, to recovery and to building one of Canada’s most recognized microdosing education brands, and why psilocybin doesn’t have to be “woo.” We also get super practical: What microdosing actually feels like day-to-day, why it can hit women differently (especially moms), how psilocybin compares to SSRIs (Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor) when it comes to emotional processing, and why “wine o’clock” culture is quietly keeping so many women stuck in a stress-and-numb...

In Day 2 of The Feminine Longevity Shift free live masterclass, I unpack why so many women are doing “everything right”. Yet still feel inflamed, exhausted, or disconnected. This isn’t about more discipline or optimization. It’s about recognizing how misalignment shows up in the female body and what actually supports long-term vitality, hormonal resilience, and healthy aging. Want protocols built specifically for women, live coaching, and real talk about peptides and longevity? That's what The LongHer Life is for. Private. Uncensored. Ongoing. I TALK ABOUT: 05:45 - Connecting...

In this free live masterclass, I connect the dots between women’s healthspan, chronic stress, and the biological cost of living out of alignment. Even when your habits look “healthy.” I talk about why the longevity conversation has been dominated by male-centered frameworks, and what happens when women override their intuition for years (in work, relationships, family dynamics, and daily decisions). This is an invitation to stop treating intuition like a “soft” topic—and start seeing it as a health input that shapes inflammation, hormones, nervous system regulation, and...

Dr. Holly Duckworth (PhD) shares how she went from mechanical engineering → psychology → deep hypnosis work (QHHT), and why “higher self” doesn’t have to be woo. Especially when you understand how fear, trauma responses, and nervous system dysregulation run the show. We also get super practical: How to recognize dysregulation (hello, sensory sensitivity + road rage), why “therapy doesn’t work” for some people until the body is regulated first, and how gratitude + nature can become daily tools for coming back to safety. Want protocols built specifically for women, live coaching,...

Modern longevity culture can make “the perfect protocol” feel like the answer—especially when you’re a busy mom who wants more energy now and a longer healthspan. Dan Pardi from (code: BRITTANY) breaks down what’s changed in longevity science over the last 25 years—and why “healthspan” (feeling strong, clear, and capable for longer) matters more than simply living longer. We get into the real trade-offs of fasting, protein, and vitality, plus a clear explanation of what stem cells actually do, why they decline with age, and how “stem cell wellness” differs from...
info_outlineModern success can humble your nervous system fast. Especially when your life looks “perfect” on paper, but your body feels flat, restless, or quietly done.
Silvia Resnik unpacks the hidden ache so many high-achieving women carry: doing everything “right” and still feeling unfulfilled. We explore the subtle signs of misalignment, how productivity becomes a coping strategy, and why nervous system safety is often the missing piece behind burnout and people-pleasing.
We also get into what it actually looks like to rebuild self-trust without blowing up your whole life—tiny, brave choices that bring you back to your truth, your joy, and a life that feels like yours again.
