As September catches a chill, in this classic Q&A, I answer your Biohacking and lifehacking questions. From how to manage a YouTube addiction, the sorry state of the Kratom biz, to Biohacking in India and Monoatomic Gold - something that you may have heard some pretty fantastic claims about!

Q

Hey, Jonathan! Are you planning on doing any additional reviews on kratom. I became highly addicted to that stuff...to the point where I had to go to inpatient rehab for 90 days. I am mainly curious as to what your thoughts are concerning its positives and negatives as a botanical. I vaguely remember a video in which you concluded it really doesn't have a great deal of value as a nootropic...but I could be wrong. Just curious!

Monoatomic gold is not a biohack - There's no substantial human clinical research on it; as of 2025, nothing can be found on PubMed. However, I found the lore around Monoatomic gold as a “superposition particle” so tantalizing that I wrote it into my new sci-fi novel, Hourglass, about biohacking, seduction, and philosophy. If you’re curious about these sorts of things, you’ll love it...

Skin in the Game biohacking consulting/coaching

As mentioned in the podcast, this is a very lean biohacking consulting/life coaching program. Here's how this would work...

* The Biohacking Consultation is 1 hour and 45 minutes total - which is actually two consulting calls.

* First Call 1 hour - Discovery & Strategizing call, I need to ask you some questions, we'll discuss your history, and outline a biohacking strategy and action plan to overcome your issues.

* Second Call 45 minutes - Follow-up call in 30 - 90 days to see how you're doing with the plan we outlined; how you've improved, what you're struggling with, etc

There are a few important reasons we split the time up into two calls

* It's a significant motivation hack for you to follow through on the biohacking habits and plan we'll outline because you're accountable to me in 30 - 90 days.

* I'm incentivized to come up with an effective biohacking strategy for you because I have to talk to you after you've been following it for a month or two.

* It timeboxes us with a deadline in 30 - 90 days for you to make improvements and accomplish your goals.

Your Skin in the game here that you're paying good money for this and you're accountable to me on another call in 30 - 90 days. You'll have to explain your lack of action if you fail to follow through.

PLEASE fill out this form

Take a few minutes to answer a few questions, if your issues are far outside my areas of expertise I'll decline the consultation. My time is finite and very valuable, so I only want to spend it consulting the people I can help. Thanks in advance for your understanding!
