Hacking Your Health

Anthony spent years chasing extremes: crash diets, juice cleanses, and quick fixes that worked for a week and backfired for a year. Every time, the weight came back.What finally worked looked almost boring. Walking more. Tracking before changing anything. One gym session a week. Slowly, it stopped being a goal and became who he is. Years later, he’s four weeks out from his first bodybuilding show, recorded live in Vegas at DEF CON.In this conversation, Anthony breaks down why extreme never lasted, how he learned to trust the process, and why “keeping promises to yourself” changed far more than his body. His advice for anyone putting it off: just start.If you want more: https://www.wehackhealth.com/Book a coaching call here Support the showWant to know more about coaching?

Conferences like DEF CON and Black Hat can wreck you: bad sleep, worse food, and days spent running on empty. Jeff used to do it the hard way: fast food every meal, 2-3 hours of sleep, and showing up too foggy to actually absorb anything.This year was different. In this conversation, Jeff breaks down exactly what changed: the planning, the small non-negotiables, and how he went from barely functioning by day two to feeling sharper, more present, and more himself than he has in years, all while still going out, having a drink, and enjoying the week.If conferences leave you wrecked every time, this one's worth watching before your next trip.If you want more: https://www.wehackhealth.com/Book a coaching call here Support the showWant to know more about coaching?

In 2012, Mandy Logan survived a gang attack that led to four clinical deaths and a series of strokes — leaving her with no memory, no ability to speak, and no control over her own body. Doctors had no real precedent for her recovery.What followed was years of near-total isolation, teaching herself a binary system just to communicate, and slowly, deliberately rebuilding her body and mind — eventually finding her way into weightlifting and, today, a respected voice in the cybersecurity community at events like DEF CON.This is a conversation about what it actually takes to rebuild from nothing, and why she believes most people give up on their health long before they have any real reason to.Connect With Mandy:LinkedIn:   / mandy-logan-cdt-cesswi-qsp-a5b30b2b  X: https://x.com/5urvivatrixInstagram:   / tellallthestories  More about her Communities & media:Paul's Security Weekly: https://securityweekly.com/pswThe Diana Initiative: https://www.dianainitiative.orgSkytalks: https://skytalks.infoSupport the showWant to know more about coaching?

He's also spent decades proving that a demanding, high-stress career in cybersecurity doesn't have to come at the cost of your health.In this conversation, Philip talks about why so many people in this field put their health last, the excuses that hold people back (time, travel, stress), and the simple, realistic approach that's kept him consistent for decades - even while working full-time in one of the most demanding corners of the industry.If you work in cybersecurity and keep telling yourself "I'll start when things calm down" - this is the conversation to watch first.If you want more: https://www.wehackhealth.com/Book a coaching call here Support the showWant to know more about coaching?

After 10 days in Vegas and a week of conferences with well over 100 conversations and 20 sit down podcasts, I have learned a lot. I decided to try and organise my thoughts from those conversations and that is what this episode is - the things I saw, the conversations that stuck with me, the struggles that people have and the want for a better state of health in the industry. I guess it's not so much a conference recap and more of an insight to the humans behind cybersecurity and why I believe we need to start taking their health and performance as seriously as the systems they're responsible for protecting.If you want more: https://www.wehackhealth.com/Book a coaching call hereSupport the showWant to know more about coaching?
