Being told you're going to die at 26 changes everything—especially when you prove the doctors wrong.

That's exactly what happened to Michele Hughes when she woke up covered in a mysterious rash that doctors said was an incurable autoimmune disease. They put her on 60 milligrams of prednisone, made her gain 10 pounds in a weekend, and basically wrote her off. But Michele's intuition told her something different.

She started titrating down the medication, began researching alternative approaches, and eventually got fired by her doctor for refusing to follow his orders. Turns out, she had been misdiagnosed, and that "firing" became the catalyst for everything.

Michele didn't just recover. She built a real estate empire worth tens of millions, developing luxury homes and owning prime land in Hawaii. But her real passion emerged later: helping others avoid the medical merry-go-round that nearly destroyed her life.

For over five years, Michele has been hosting the "Ageless and Timeless" podcast, interviewing 120+ longevity experts and biohackers. She's become a walking experiment, testing everything from ESS60 and peptide bioregulators to red light therapy and plasmalogen optimization.

Her philosophy? Pain to purpose to passion to power, and trusting your intuition above all else.

"Getting rid of that fear that I was going to die and that I had an incurable disease was probably one of the biggest life-changing events that I can remember." ~ Michele Hughes
