In this episode, we dive into the fascinating world of NRF1 and NRF2—two master regulators of cellular health that are transforming how we think about aging and longevity. NRF1 supports mitochondrial biogenesis, powering up the energy centres of our cells, while NRF2 activates our body’s natural antioxidant defences, reducing oxidative stress and inflammation. Together, they form a dynamic duo for cellular resilience, vitality, and graceful aging.

We’ll explore how LifeVantage has pioneered research in this space, developing nutrigenomic formulations that tap into these pathways to promote health span and youthful function. Whether you're a biohacker, wellness seeker, or simply curious about the future of anti-aging science, this episode offers a clear and inspiring look at how we can harmonize biology and consciousness for radiant longevity.

Melanie Wakelin is the host of Activate and Illuminate, a podcast that spotlights real people awakening their potential and inspiring others through the power of their stories. For over a decade, she’s been sharing how cellular activation can transform not just our bodies, but our lives, light, and the way we experience the world.

As a multi-passionate entrepreneur, Melanie also founded BizBloomer.com, a platform dedicated to helping small businesses grow, bloom, and connect through visibility, collaboration, and creative strategy.

Beyond the mic and her ventures with LifeVantage and BizBloomer, you’ll often find Melanie in her happy places — cooking from scratch for family and friends, chasing sunsets across Alberta, capturing nature’s wild beauty through her lens, or exploring the next road less travelled.

A lifelong student of healing, wellness, and human connection, Melanie brings curiosity, depth, and heart to everything she does. To her, activation isn’t just a business — it’s a movement for the builders, dreamers, and doers who refuse to play small, in their lives or in their cells.

Dr. Jo Whitaker is an internationally recognized researcher, speaker, and pioneer at the intersection of biology, natural health, and electromagnetic science. With a background in biomedical sciences—including genetics, oncology, microbiology, and immunology—she integrates rigorous expertise with emerging research on the human biofield and its interaction with the environment.

Her work explores how natural frequencies, electromagnetic fields, and biological systems are interconnected, revealing how environmental and artificial EMF exposures affect human, animal, and plant health. By investigating the link between Earth’s natural electromagnetic patterns and living organisms, Dr. Whitaker is advancing a new understanding of vitality that bridges quantum magnetic fields, biology, and environmental science.

Through research and public speaking, she offers a science-based approach to detoxification, energy balance, and EMF harmonization—helping people reconnect with nature’s restorative frequencies.

Together with Kelly Hindson, she co-founded Crystal Water Experience (CWE), a wellness company conducting cutting-edge research into the biofield and developing evidence-based tools to optimize energy, reduce EMF exposure, and support holistic well-being.
