Taryn and Michela get real about the pressure to optimize every single thing: your sleep, your skin, your diet, your body. From peptide injections ordered off TikTok to the death of HIIT culture — nothing is off the table. They're not doctors, nutritionists, or trainers. They're just two women who've tried it all, made some expensive mistakes, and want to cut through the noise. Chapters: 0:00 – Intro: When di... | 40m 40s | ||||||
