How This Billionaire Became the Healthiest Human Alive (ft. Bryan Johnson)

Welcome to the episode that might change your life (or at least your bedtime routine).

Bryan Johnson made bank building Braintree Venmo. Then he walked away from it all to spend $2M a year turning his body into a science experiment. Now? He says he’s the healthiest human alive, and he’s got the organ scans to prove it.

Hosts Phoebe Gates and Sophia Kianni get deep with Bryan about biohacking, founder burnout, the dirty truth about our food system, and why optimizing your sleep might be the most rebellious thing you can do as an entrepreneur.

This convo gets real: blood transfusions, lonely sleep routines, and "sugar face" real.
