I had an absolute blast in this episode of Bio’s Brightest sitting down with my friend Stephen Kavanagh, the founder of Marine Life Foods Ltd. Not only is he hilarious (you’ll see what I mean), but he’s also one of the smartest, most forward-thinking people I know when it comes to food, sustainability, and innovation.

We dive deep into how oysters—yes, oysters—might just be one of the most powerful foods on the planet. Stephen shares some wild stats about oyster consumption, why these little shellfish are insanely good for you, and how they’re actually helping to heal our oceans.

We also talk business. Stephen breaks down how he built Marine Life Foods from the ground up and what it takes to bring a truly disruptive idea to market. Whether you're into nutrition, environmental sustainability, or just love a good entrepreneurial story, this one is packed with gems.

Trust me, you’ll never look at oysters the same way again.

In this episode of BIO’s Brightest, I had the absolute pleasure of sitting down with Dr. Cam McDonald—one of the most brilliant minds in precision health and someone who’s been quietly building what I believe is the future of medicine.

From growing up with a holistic healer mom and a conventional dentist dad, to leading a team that’s spent over two decades perfecting AI-driven personalized care, Cam’s story is wild—and his mission is powerful. We dive deep into how his team is using just two photos and 20 minutes to generate customized health plans, why most wearables miss the mark, and how clinics around the world are cutting admin time, increasing revenue, and scaling like never before.

We also talk about one of the coolest innovations I’ve seen: digital twins. Imagine your patients being able to talk to an AI version of you 24/7, built from your content and knowledge base. It’s real—and it’s happening now.

If you run a clinic, work in functional medicine, or are just curious about where the future of healthcare is headed, this one is a must-listen.

Join host Chris Himel as he sits down with Jim Ohneck, the founder of Epoch Lasers, to uncover the truth about red and near-infrared light therapy. From the cellular science of ATP production to real-world use cases for pain relief, injury recovery, and even post-IV treatment care—this episode is packed with expert insights, clinic success stories, and practical takeaways for providers and patients alike. Whether you're a clinic owner, health entrepreneur, or biohacking enthusiast, you’ll walk away with a clearer understanding of what makes this technology a game-changer.

In this episode of Bio’s Brightest, Chris Himel sits down with Guti, founder of Mitolux, to explore the science and application of full-spectrum light therapy. Guti explains the limitations of red light therapy alone and introduces the benefits of incorporating UVB and near-infrared wavelengths for improved mood, hormone regulation, circadian rhythm support, and vitamin D production.

They discuss how clinics are integrating Mitolux devices into their offerings, how skin type impacts light absorption, and why most people remain vitamin D deficient despite supplementation. Guti also breaks down the differences between light wavelengths, the concept of "grandma hacks" in biohacking, and how his light therapy device replicates the benefits of natural sunlight.

This episode is a deep dive into light as a therapeutic tool and how it can support overall wellness through practical, science-based approaches.

In this episode of Bio’s Brightest, I sit down with one of the most fascinating minds in regenerative health — Christian Drapeau, a neuroscientist turned stem cell trailblazer. If you've ever wondered what stem cells do in your body, or if it's possible to trigger healing without injections or invasive procedures, this episode is going to blow your mind.

Christian has spent more than 25 years researching how certain plants can activate your body’s stem cells — and in doing so, unlock the natural ability we all have to repair ourselves. We talk about the science behind it, yes — but also the real-world results: from reversing chronic heart failure, to supporting Parkinson’s recovery, to why most doctors still have no idea this exists.

What I love most about this conversation is how simple Christian makes it. This isn’t about hype — it’s about the science that’s finally catching up to what natural medicine has known for centuries. It’s about empowering clinic owners, practitioners, and patients to rethink what’s possible.

If you're in functional medicine, run a wellness clinic, or just care about your long-term health — this is the one episode you don’t want to miss.

In this dynamic episode, Chris Himel sits with entrepreneur Emma to unpack the real story behind launching and scaling a wellness studio. From building her business from the ground up to navigating cash flow, client retention, and burnout, Emma shares the unfiltered truth about what it takes to succeed in the health and fitness industry.

Chris and Emma dive into the strategies that helped her grow her studio to profitability in under a year, including the turning point that led her to hire a business coach and the marketing moves that made a difference. They also explore the emotional and mental toll of entrepreneurship, the importance of customer service, and why building community is the secret weapon in business success.

Whether you’re starting a business or scaling an existing one, this episode offers powerful takeaways and honest insights that will inspire you to take action and grow with purpose.

What if healing could come from sound?

In this episode of Bio’s Brightest, I sat down with John Bamber—co-founder of WAVwatch and one of the most genuine innovators I’ve met. His story is wild: his mom invented a frequency-based watch that’s now transforming how we approach pain, sleep, anxiety, detoxing, and more.

We talk about: → The science behind sound frequencies and healing
→ The woman whose tremors disappeared in 3 minutes
→ Real-world clinical results (including a heavy metals detox retest!)
→ How clinics can use WaveWatch as a powerful new revenue stream
→ The future of non-invasive, frequency-based therapy

This one’s part heart, part science, and packed with moments that will challenge how you think about wellness.
