Where Quantum Science Meets Spirituality – Jewels Arnes
I’m excited to welcome back Jewels Arnes, an author, ascension coach, and the founder of BioQuantum Skincare Technology. Jewels has more than 30 years of experience in energy medicine and intensive consciousness work.
In today’s episode, Jewels explains scalar waves, ORMUS, and the quantum level. She shares how these concepts all contribute to her BioQuantum Skincare line and the intention she poured into the products. We also talk about how and why Jewels moved away from psychedelics and regular meditation, and how she tunes into frequencies without them.
Plus, we get into the spiritual ego, how to master your triggers, the frequency of DMT, and Jewels’ role as an ascension coach. Unlike my analytical brain, Jewels sees the world through frequencies, so this was a fun conversation with fresh perspectives.

The Science of Supper: Transform Your Health Through Family Meals – Shawn Stevenson
Today’s guest is none other than Shawn Stevenson. If you’re not already familiar with Shawn’s work, he’s the author of the USA Today National bestseller Eat Smarter, the international bestselling book Sleep Smarter, and the creator of the widely popular health podcast, The Model Health Show.
Shawn is one of those guys who embodies peace and calm, after an impressively transformative journey stemming from a background of health challenges at least as severe as mine. After recovering, he became a researcher and nutritionist experienced in biology and nutritional science.
We dive into a crucial element of biohacking I am always keen to highlight—friendship, or in this case, community.
Based on research from Shawn’s latest book, Eat Smarter Family Cookbook, we talk about his current mission on the path to wellness: creating a culture of wellness around the dinner table, how communal meals impact our health and longevity, and filling the void of connection we all so desperately need these days.
Shawn shares insights from his own family’s dinner table, his tips for implementing family meals into your weekly routine, and the encouraging science and data behind how it supports physical and spiritual nourishment, nervous system regulation, stress management, and more.
If you like this episode, I encourage you to go pick out a good cut of meat and cook food for someone you care about—or simply do anything that's an act of service that nourishes another human being. Here’s to cultivating strong relationships, imbuing our food with love, and honoring the act of nourishing ourselves and our families.

No Grain, No Pain: Why Removing Gluten is Key to Improving Your Health – Dr. Peter Osborne
Today, we're diving into a topic that's on everyone's mind, but often misunderstood: gluten. Joining the show on this gluten-decoding mission is none other than Dr. Peter Osborne, aka the Gluten-Free Warrior. Dr. Osborne is a powerhouse of knowledge in nutritional health, particularly regarding gluten sensitivity and food allergies.
As the founder of Gluten Free Society, the author of the bestseller, No Grain No Pain, and the host of the Glutenology MasterClass Series, he's at the forefront of functional medicine, helping countless individuals combat chronic and autoimmune diseases.
His insights are crucial for anyone navigating the complexities of a gluten-free life.
In this episode, we explain why gluten isn’t good for anyone—even if you don’t have symptoms or a diagnosed celiac problem. As a foundation, we lay out the differences between gluten sensitivity and celiac disease, covering the surprising connections between dairy, gluten allergies, and mold.
Dr. Osborne also highlights why common gluten-free substitutes like corn, oats, and rice aren't the safe havens we wish we were. You’ll hear about the nefarious ways Big Food is keeping our country sick and how to start taking charge of your own health in simple, free ways.
Dr. Osborne shares his recommended diet, the rule of thirds, and how to effectively shift your eating habits. He recognizes the frustration and struggle many people face in finding effective professional help, and shares his tips for spearheading your own healing while collaborating with competent professionals.
This episode isn't just about gluten; it's a deep dive into understanding your body, your diet, and how to collaborate with your doctor to find the health solutions that work for you.

Akashic Records 101: The Simple Spiritual Practice You Haven’t Heard of…Yet – Laura Coe
Today we’re talking about something a little different—the “weird,” esoteric, metaphysical stuff. I’m joined by Laura Coe, who was a successful healthcare tech entrepreneur before selling her company and returning to her passion for philosophy. She is now an author, certified life coach, and Akashic Records reader.
Never heard of the Akashic Records? Laura explains exactly what they are, and how they can help you understand yourself on a deeper level to find more joy, peace, and prosperity in your life. We explore the big questions… Who can access the Records? How do you know if they’re even real?
Then, we get into the nitty gritty… How do you learn to read them? What can you ask and not ask? Can they help you sell your house or make more money?
Laura and I also talk about how to tap into your intuition as an entrepreneur, the stigmas against spirituality, and why more of us than we think probably have psychic gifts. If you’re skeptical of this stuff, I’m going to ask you to suspend your disbelief and listen with an open mind. Laura’s perspective will give you a lot to think about. Why not give it a try?

Customer Reviews
Awesome podcast
Before I dived in, I red some reviews and almost didn’t go through with this podcast, but I’m so happy I did in the end cause I can’t stop listening! I thought Dave was arrogant but it’s not that, it’s more like a Charisse’s with dry sense of sarcasm, which I like a lot. And the guests are great! Glad I kept listening as it’s a ton of great info
If you’re ready, you’ve landed ...
Dave’s style is the absolute best in my podcast listening world (7 years total) I’ve watch the Bulletproof brand get stronger year after year. Dave is brilliant at so many things and thank God he is in this space where we need him. I have gotten immense knowledge from his BP podcast, and now this one which is my go-to for Upgrading my biology. Dave is selective and sets very admirable standards for all of the pieces that make up his bio-hacking endeavors. I have often used his style of integrity as a margin when researching practitioners and products. If you have been in search of this optimal self transformation and human up-leveling, get ready, you’ve landed. ~Lisette, Las Vegas✨
Easy to understand
I have really enjoyed Dave’s series on Gaia and I find him very easy to listen to and easy to understand. With such in-depth knowledge he also allows his guests to speak. I consider him a honorary doctor in the field of human science and this is an area all humans should explore and self educate.
