Bios Brightest

Pulsed Electromagnetic Fields (PEMF) therapy is really, really big in biohacking right now. The leading company behind the modality is arguably Pulse PEMF. Representing the trailbalzing Pulse PEMF team is my guest this week on Bio’s Brightest, Joe LeHotay.

He’s here to unpack what exactly PEMF is in the first place and why it’s so effective as a “ground zero” service for patients. There’s some real science behind it (cells and the Earth’s electromagentic field), which we get into.

But it’s not just about health benefits — Joe also lays out the compelling business case for clinic owners. PEMF can be great for both patient results AND improving your clinic’s bottom line. This is an action-packed interview so stick with us!

Interested in unlocking your clinic's true growth? Then you need to get in the room with over a hundred other clinic owners who are at the top of their game. Our private Bio Boardroom is taking new members if you're interested: https://thebioboardroom.com/

Without a doubt, Clayton Thomas is one of the most unique founders you'll find in the alternative medicine space. As the founder of The ROOT Brand, which sells all-natural detox products, Clayton’s passion for the human body is practically woven into his DNA — beginning with a family legacy in veterinary medicine and carrying through his days as a PAC-10 college runner. For Clayton, understanding health has been a lifelong pursuit.

In this episode of Bio’s Brightest, Clayton doesn’t just talk symptoms — he reveals a potential hidden source that might be behind many of today’s health challenges, something that starts affecting us even in the womb. His perspective on toxicity, epigenetics, and cellular regeneration offers a fresh look at wellness that you won’t find anywhere else. If you’re looking for a deep dive into the science behind the human body, this conversation is for you. Clayton not only brings decades of experience but also independent research that challenges what we think we know about health. Trust me — this is a must-listen episode for anyone passionate about true healing and human potential.

Jonny Weber is as inspiring an entrepreneur as you’ll find in the alternative medicine space. After 18 years as a paramedic, where he routinely ran into burning buildings to save lives, Jonny founded Mobile IV Nurses and Rocky Mountain IV Medics. The transition might seem surprising, but those intense, life-saving experiences prepared him for a career where caring for people remains front and center.

But Jonny’s genuine care for others doesn’t come from a job or a business — it’s woven into who he is at his core. As we discuss on the show, Jonny is what we call a “giver” in business, and that comes with both pros and cons. 

Jonny has been on Bio’s Brightest before, but this time, we’re going deeper. In this special in-person interview, Jonny shares the philosophies that guide his life and business. Whether you’re in functional medicine or any field involving people, Jonny’s story will inspire you to embrace both your heart and your hustle.

Transitioning from a hands-on leader to a motivational powerhouse is no easy task, and this episode dives deep into that journey. In this episode, we bring you Katie Wafer Gillberg, the visionary founder of Hydrate IV Bar. 

Katie's inspiring journey from medical sales to establishing a successful IV therapy business is nothing short of remarkable. Hear firsthand how a friend's battle with Lyme disease and an eye-opening experience with IV therapy in Las Vegas fueled her entrepreneurial spirit. Katie shares her meticulous planning process and the creation of a unique spa-like atmosphere that marries top-notch medical care with luxury.

We also tackle one of the toughest hurdles for any entrepreneur: letting go of control. We discuss the challenges of delegating critical tasks and the transformative power of therapy and self-care in overcoming these barriers. This episode also dispels the myth that success makes life easier, instead revealing the increased pressures and isolation that often come with entrepreneurial achievements.

In this episode, you will hear:

• Hydrate IV bar concept
• Overcoming control in business growth
• Supporting personal wellbeing in leadership
• Leading with purpose and culture
• Advice for clinic owners
• Franchise growth and celebration
