When Biohacking Becomes Burnout: The Feminine Rebellion Against Elitist Wellness with Camilla Thompson

Australian biohacker and author Camilla Thompson dives into what it really takes to get well—beyond the gadgets, green juices, and "optimized" routines. We unpack how biohacking is evolving in Australia and New Zealand, why wellness feels elitist, and how to make it more accessible.

We also get real about detoxing in a toxic world, the hormonal cost of our environments, and how to find balance between data and intuition in biohacking. If you're a health-curious woman craving grounded wellness—less obsession, more embodiment—this episode is for you.

WE TALK ABOUT:

06:40 – Biohacking in Australia: Accessibility, regulation, and cultural gaps

10:30 – Health and food quality in New Zealand vs. Australia

14:10 – The elitism of biohacking and how to democratize it

20:10 – Women, research gaps, and the cost of getting well

24:50 – Camilla's personal story of mold illness and recovery

31:15 – Women's retreats, emotional healing, and slowing down

38:00 – Motherhood, modeling health for kids, and finding balance

48:00 – Hormones, perimenopause, and environmental toxins

54:20 – Detoxing, binders, and realistic biohacks that actually work
