    Ep.05 - What Your Skin Reveals About Your Health | Dr. Sonali Kohli

    In this episode of 4 Questions with Luke Coutinho, I’m joined once again by dermatologist Dr. Sonali Kohli after the response to our previous conversation. This time, we get straight into four important questions around skin, hair, hormones, aging and some of the health signals we often overlook. Can your skin, hair and nails reveal what is happening inside your body? We discuss hair fall, widening hair parting, pigmentation, skin tags and the possible connection with nutritional deficiencies and insulin resistance. We also talk about the changes women experience during perimenopause and menopause, including collagen breakdown, skin and hair changes, and why the foundations you build years earlier can influence how you age. Dr. Sonali also breaks down the impact of smoking, vaping and shisha on oxidative stress, skin and hair, and we discuss the growing trend of using nicotine for cognitive performance and longevity. Finally, we get into the obsession with glass skin and skin lightening, the risks of overusing certain products, and the truth behind glutathione injections and whether they can actually make your skin fairer. A practical conversation about understanding your skin beyond appearance and looking at the bigger picture of health, lifestyle and foundational wellness. In this episode: * What your skin, hair and nails may be telling you * Early signs of female pattern hair loss * Hair loss, hormones and insulin resistance * Perimenopause, menopause and collagen * Strength training and healthy aging * Smoking, vaping and shisha * Nicotine microdosing and longevity * The glass skin trend * Skin lightening and skin barrier damage * The truth about glutathione injections

    Ep.04 - Beyond Sex: Understanding Intimacy, Desire & Emotional Connection | ft. Shruti Lakhotia

    Intimacy Without Shame: Desire, Communication & Sexual Wellness with Shruti Lakhotia Intimacy is an important part of wellbeing, yet conversations around desire, pleasure and sexuality are still shaped by silence, shame, social conditioning and unrealistic expectations. In this episode of 4 Questions with Luke Coutinho, Luke sits down with Shruti Lakhotia, Intimacy and Self-Love Empowerment Coach, for an open and honest conversation about intimacy, desire, self-exploration, relationships and communication. What does intimacy really mean beyond sexual performance? Why do many women find it difficult to communicate what gives them pleasure? How do attraction, past experiences and social conditioning influence the way we experience desire? And how can couples become more comfortable talking about their needs, boundaries and preferences? Luke and Shruti also explore sexual compatibility, libido, initiation, sex toys, self-awareness, attraction and the role of communication in creating deeper intimacy. Rather than prescribing what intimacy should look like, this conversation encourages greater awareness, education and honesty—so individuals and couples can understand themselves and each other better. In this episode, we discuss: 00:00 Introduction 00:57 Communication & Pleasure 04:32 Intimacy Beyond Performance 09:00 What Drives Attraction? 14:30 The Role of Sex Toys 21:10 Initiation & Sexual Compatibility Intimacy is not just about physical closeness. It can also involve trust, emotional safety, communication, self-awareness and the ability to express what we need. This is a conversation about intimacy without shame, relationships without assumptions, and understanding ourselves with greater honesty and empathy. 🎧 Listen to the full conversation and share your thoughts. #LukeCoutinho #4QuestionsWithLukeCoutinho #ShrutiLakhotia #Intimacy #SexualWellness #Relationships #EmotionalIntimacy

    Ep.03 - Marriage, Family & Boundaries: Who Comes First? | 4 Questions with Luke Coutinho ft. Anandita Vaghani

    What happens when two people love each other, but there is mismatch in desires? Should your spouse come before your parents after marriage? Is asking for space a sign that a relationship is failing - or could it actually make the relationship stronger? And when children become the centre of a family, what happens to the couple who existed before them? In this episode of *4 Questions with Luke Coutinho, Luke sits down with **Anandita Vaghani, Mental Health Expert*, for an honest conversation about the parts of relationships we often experience but rarely know how to talk about. They explore sexual desire, vulnerability, reassurance, family boundaries, emotional space, parenting, intimacy - and one question that may change the way you look at love: *Are we spending more time trying to find the right relationship than learning how to build one?* And then there is social media. Are relationships really changing as dramatically as our feeds make us believe? Or are algorithms simply changing what we think is normal? A conversation about love, but more importantly, about understanding the human beings inside it. 4 Questions with Luke Coutinho - because sometimes the right question can change the way you see everything.

    Ep.02 - The Seafood Truth: Farmed Fish vs Wild Fish, Heavy Metals Contamination & Sustainability

    In this episode of The Wellness Reset, Luke Coutinho sits down with his childhood friend Aaron Lobo, Marine Conservation Scientist and practitioner, for a deeper look at something we rarely question: where does our food actually come from? The conversation explores the powerful connection between human health, the ocean, nature and our food systems. Aaron shares how his journey from studying snakes and marine life led him into marine conservation, and what his experiences at sea taught him about the seafood we eat. They discuss: * Farmed fish vs wild-caught fish: Is farmed seafood actually unhealthy, or is the reality more nuanced? * How aquaculture and mariculture work and why farmed seafood has become such an important part of the global food system * What really happens in trawl fisheries and their impact on marine life * Why seafood is not just food, but also wildlife * How our oceans, forests, wetlands, biodiversity and food chains are deeply connected to human health * Mercury and heavy-metal accumulation in fish, and why certain larger, longer-lived fish may require more consideration * How the modern food system has changed our relationship with what we eat * Why health may begin much earlier than a supplement, gym or diet plan, with the quality of our soil, water, air and ecosystems A thought-provoking conversation about seafood, sustainability, food choices and the forgotten connection between our health and the natural world.

    Ep.01 - Breast Cancer: 4 Questions Every Woman Needs Answers To | Dr. Garvit Chitkara

    Breast cancer raises questions every woman deserves clear answers to. But what if some of the most important questions aren’t the ones we usually ask? In this episode of The Luke Coutinho Show, Luke Coutinho sits down with Dr. Garvit Chitkara, Breast Surgical Oncologist and Foundational Medicine Advisory Board Expert, for a deeply informative conversation around 4 essential questions every woman needs answers to about breast cancer. What has changed in our understanding of breast cancer over the last 20 years? How do genetics, inflammation, metabolic health, chronic stress, environmental factors and lifestyle fit into the bigger picture? And once someone is diagnosed, what can they do alongside medical treatment to support their health through nutrition, movement and sustainable lifestyle changes? The conversation goes beyond biology to address something equally important: the beliefs we carry about cancer. Is cancer a punishment? Bad karma? Something a person should feel responsible or guilty for? Luke and Dr. Chitkara unpack why fear, shame and blame have no place in the cancer journey. They also tackle a question women frequently wonder about: Can wearing a bra increase breast cancer risk? And perhaps most importantly, Dr. Chitkara gives a practical, step-by-step guide to self-breast examination, when to check, what changes to look for, what may be normal, and when a change warrants a consultation with a doctor. This episode brings together breast cancer awareness, breast health, early detection, self-examination, lifestyle and medical care to help women move from fear to informed action. Because the right questions can lead to better conversations, earlier awareness and more informed decisions. Listen to the full episode and share it with the women you care about.

    Ep.11 - The Truth Behind ‘Healthy’ Packaged Foods

    In this powerful episode of The Wellness Reset, Luke Coutinho sits down with Shashank Mehta, founder of The Whole Truth, to discuss transparency, ethics, and the hidden realities of the food industry. Shashank shares his personal journey with obesity, losing 40 kilograms twice, and how that struggle pushed him to study food science and build a brand based on honesty. He explains why many “healthy” foods contain hidden sugars, how preservatives extend shelf life, and why listing every ingredient with its percentage is essential for consumer trust. The conversation also covers influencer marketing ethics, rigorous testing for contaminants like heavy metals, pricing challenges of clean ingredients, and the future of honest nutrition — especially for children. If you want to understand what’s really inside your food and how to make better choices, this episode is a must-watch.
