Mushrooms. Manifestation. A brand changing the game.

Meet Zain Peer, cofounder of London Nootropics, one of the breakout names in functional health right now. Their adaptogenic coffee blends have taken the wellness space by storm, helping people ditch the jitters, clear brain fog, and tap into something better than burnout.

They have gone from kitchen counter experiments to a seven figure brand, featured on BBC Dragons’ Den, backed by major health voices, and supported by a growing wave of customers who are tired of being sold nonsense in shiny packaging.

But this conversation is not just about what they built, it is about everything they uncovered along the way.

We go there.

Behind the scenes of the supplement industry. The dangerous loopholes in regulation. The brands selling junk science under the label of wellness. And the question nobody wants to answer, if these ingredients are so effective, why are so many people trying to shut them down?

We also talk about the magic in the mess. The chaos of Covid. The timing they could not have planned. The moment Chris Evans shouted about them live on air. And the Dragons’ Den offer they walked away from without blinking.

⸻

Key moments include:

✔ What adaptogens really do to the body and why the quality matters more than people think

✔ How suppressed emotion might be linked to illness and what happens when you finally face it

✔ The science, the woo, and where it all overlaps

✔ Synchronicity, instinct, and the surreal moments that kept pointing them forward

✔ Why so much of what we are told about health is still built on broken systems

This one is bold. It is unfiltered. And it goes far beyond coffee.

If you care about your body, your energy, your focus, your health, and if you have ever had the sense that there is more going on than we are being told, this episode is for you.

What if the solution to your chronic pain, low energy, poor sleep, or even spiralling mental health wasn’t another pill but a magnetic field?

More and more people are starting to take their health and longevity seriously, myself included. And once you start digging, it’s incredible what’s out there. One of the names that keeps coming up is Andy Smith. He’s really making waves (pardon the pun) in the biohacking world with a device called CELLER8, a PEMF therapy mat designed to work with the body’s own energy field to support proper healing.

Andy’s not just talking the talk. After going through a serious health crash in his twenties, he led the development of CELLER8 from the ground up, taking everything he’d learned through personal experience and years in the PEMF space and turning it into something more accessible, more portable, and crucially more effective.

We get into the science behind PEMF, the madness of modern EMFs, and why so many of us are walking around inflamed, depleted, and running on empty. Andy breaks it down in simple terms and shares exactly what happens when you give your body the tools it actually needs to heal.

⸻

Key moments include:

✔ The brutal health breakdown that changed everything and why nothing the doctors gave him worked.

✔ How CELLER8 supports the body at a cellular level and what most cheap PEMF devices get wrong.

✔ Why 70% of users are women and how it’s helping with pain, energy, periods, menopause and more.

✔ The truth about knock off PEMF mats and why some could be making people worse.

✔ How his toddler’s hip dysplasia healed eight months ahead of schedule using PEMF.

If you’re into longevity, recovery, or just want to feel more like yourself again, this one’s worth a listen.

He arrived in the UK with just £270 in his pocket and ended up building a multi-million-pound business with Lord Sugar as his partner.

In this episode, I’m joined by Mark Wright, who doesn’t just talk about entrepreneurship, he’s lived it, battled through it and earned every win.

We talk about what really happens after the cameras stop rolling. From legal battles in month two of business, to being publicly booed by an entire industry, Mark shares the kind of experience that can’t be taught in a classroom.

He opens up about the relentless pressure of launching a company in the spotlight, how he handled being stalked, hacked and written off and why none of it stopped him.

We also get into his obsession with studying success, the harsh lessons that shaped him, and the no-nonsense mentoring he’s had from Lord Sugar and Grant Cardone.

Key moments include:

✔ What it really takes to win The Apprentice (and why the game starts long before the boardroom).

✔ Why the first 18 months of business nearly broke him.

✔ The mindset shift that separates talkers from doers.

✔ Behind the scenes of launching a business with Lord Sugar.

✔ Why Mark refuses to water things down for anyone.

✔ The difference between being liked and being respected.
