In this raw solo episode, I’m calling out three pieces of “wellness propaganda” I refuse to follow—sleep training, daycare before age 3, and slathering on chemical sunscreen all day. 

Expect science-backed research, mom-life honesty, and feminine-first biohacks that protect our babies’ nervous systems and our own hormones. 

If you’re a high-achieving mom who’s tired of being told to override intuition for convenience, this conversation is for you. DM me the “propaganda” you’re ditching on Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/biohackingbrittany/].

I TALK ABOUT: 

08:00 – Propaganda #1: Sleep training vs. respecting an infant’s circadian rhythm and HPA-axis development

15:10 – Attachment parenting, intuitive nap cues, and why I ditched the Huckleberry tracking app

19:00 – Propaganda #2: Daycare cortisol spikes, behavioral dysregulation, and why grandparent care wins for under-threes

26:40 – Rejecting the 40-hour grind and building a feminine-flow business around motherhood

33:55 – Propaganda #3: Sunlight as a nutrient, mitochondrial biogenesis, and choosing mineral blockers over chemical SPF

40:00 – My go-to zinc sunscreens — One Skin SPF 30 [https://www.oneskin.co/] (code: BIOHACKINGBRITTANY) and Think Baby SPF 30 for Callahan

I Went to Nicaragua to Slow Down—Here’s What It Did to My Brain, Body, and Baby

Sophie Allen and Izzy Fischer, co-founders of the revolutionary supplement brand Daily Basis, break down how our hormones fluctuate daily and why most wellness products completely ignore this biological reality. 

We dive deep into menstrual health, the flaws in current supplement routines, and the science behind cycle-specific nutrition.

From birth control recovery to postpartum irregularity, we explore how targeted nutrients in specific phases of the cycle can drastically reduce PMS symptoms, balance hormones, and help women reconnect with their bodies.
