    In this thought-provoking conversation, Lisa Tamati sits down with Luke Kemeys, chartered accountant, financial educator, and host of the Keep the Change podcast, to unpack the pressing financial realities facing New Zealanders today. From inflation and the housing crisis to the broken monetary system and the concentration of wealth, they explore why Kiwis can no longer rely on government fixes or property alone to secure their financial futures. Lisa and Luke share their personal journeys toward financial literacy, their experiences with cryptocurrency, the importance of asset tracking, and why personal responsibility is the cornerstone of both health and wealth. They also discuss AI disruption, investment strategies that outpace inflation, and the dangers of consumer debt culture.

    A single gene that reverses ageing by over 13 years without activating pluripotency or cancer risk?

In this detailed breakdown, Lisa Tamati, longevity coach, biohacker, and host of the Longevity & Lifestyle podcast Pushing The Limits, explores how SB000 was discovered using cutting-edge AI and transcriptomic ageing clocks, what it actually does at the cellular level, and what this means for the future of safe, targeted anti-aging interventions. What you’ll learn in this episode: How cell age reversal has become a real possibility Why Yamanaka factors (OSKM) carry cancer risk How Shift Bioscience used AI to simulate 562 million gene combinations What makes SB000 unique as a “transcriptomic rejuvenator” The therapeutic potential of SB000 in reversing ageing safely Why this matters for the future of biohacking, longevity science, and gene therapy Visit Shift Biosciences to learn more about this study: https://www.shiftbioscience.com/ 🎯 Personalised Health Optimisation Consulting with Lisa Tamati Lisa offers solution focused coaching sessions to help you find the right answers to your challenges. 📌 Topics Lisa can help with: Lisa is a Genetics Practitioner, Health Optimisation Coach, High Performance and Mindset Coach.
