372: The Truth About Mitochondria, Energy + Longevity | Daria Mochly-Rosen

In this episode, I sit down with Daria Mochly-Rosen to explore the powerful role mitochondria play in our energy, brain health, metabolism, and long term resilience. We talk about the science behind sleep, strength training, stress, and nutrition, and how simple daily habits can support better healthspan without falling into burnout or extreme biohacks. We also cover the cultural pressure to hustle nonstop, why slowing down is not a weakness, and how connection, family, and meaningful conversations can actually support your biology. She breaks down the fascinating truth about how we inherit mitochondria, how lifestyle choices influence cellular health, and why it is never too late to start building stronger, more resilient energy from the inside out. → Leave Us A Voice Message!
