From Broke to Biohacked: Anthony & TereZa Lolli on Health, Wealth, and Rebuilding Everything

What does it actually take to rebuild your body, your business, and your belief in yourself, from absolute zero? Anthony Lolli knows. He was a millionaire at 23, running 800 agents across 100+ New York City real estate locations. He had the Rolls-Royce. The mansion. 50 Cent filming commercials in his backyard.  Then came his two-year-old daughter, who looked up at her 315-pound father and said: "Daddy, you're fat. I don't want you to die." That sentence changed everything. TereZa Lolli came to America from Armenia with $300 and a fire that doesn't quit. A piano prodigy, a ping pong champion, an Idol finalist — she graduated at the top of her class, turned down a prestigious corporate offer, and bet everything on her own terms. After having children, her hormones collapsed and her body stopped cooperating. Her response? Become a two-time bikini world champion and launch one of the fastest-growing independent health media platforms on the planet. Together, Anthony and TereZa are the founders of Biohack Yourself Media — producers of more than a dozen award-winning health documentaries and the exclusive health press at the MAHA Inaugural Ball. Their children, Love and Legend, are child actors who — guided by their mother — invested their own earnings in real estate before their tenth birthdays. In this episode, Shawn French sits down with Anthony and TereZa to talk about: The biohacking protocols that transformed Anthony's body and mindset How TereZa reversed hormonal collapse and became a world champion Longevity, healthspan, and the testing that actually matters Sleep optimization and stress as a silent killer Biological dentistry and what your mouth is telling your body Raising children to think like entrepreneurs and investors The lawsuits, the fall, the federal racketeering claim — and what really happened What Biohack Yourself Media is building and why it matters now This is not a highlight reel. This is the whole story — the rises, the falls, and the relentless determination to rebuild.

Real growth happens when your mindset shifts from surviving to taking control. In this episode, Jana Kramer opens up about healing from trauma, learning to trust herself again, and building the determination and mental toughness required to stop repeating the same patterns.

Adversity isn't a setback—it's your setup. When LaMyiah Pearlinia lost her job, she faced an identity crisis that forced her to rebuild from zero. In this raw conversation, she reveals how losing everything became the exact catalyst for finding real discipline, purpose, and what she's truly called to do. A candid exploration of career pivots, mental resilience, and trusting God through uncertainty.   Key Takeaways:   Losing your job isn’t failure — it’s adversity redirecting you toward where your determination is meant to take you. Staying authentic requires the discipline and determination to walk away from what doesn’t align. Fear shows up when your identity is shaken through adversity, but determination is what steadies you. You can’t step into purpose without the discipline and determination to stop chasing someone else’s vision. Sometimes adversity forces surrender so your determination can be rebuilt the right way. Peace is often the reward on the other side of disciplined, determined decisions.
