The War Council for Wellness: HOLOLIFE Mastermind

As a fighter, I know the difference between a training session and a title fight. The HOLOLIFE Summit was our training camp. The Mastermind Island was where we drew up the battle plan. Because make no mistake, we are in a fight. It’s a “David vs. Goliath” struggle for the future of health.

Our path forward isn’t just about publishing data; it’s about winning hearts and minds. We must become master storytellers and build tribes, not just customer bases. The most important takeaway from our time on the island was the unanimous agreement on one core principle: collaboration over competition.

HOLOLIFE DINNER - VIP EXPERIENCE

This year’s HOLOLIFE Dinner was more than a meal; it was a hands-on, metabolic masterclass. Our guests didn’t just eat—they helped create the very sauces and dressings that would upgrade their biology. In sessions led by experts like Dr. Olli Sovijärvi and Jaakko Halmetoja, we crafted everything from a vibrant sea buckthorn vinaigrette to a stem-cell-stimulating, plant-based hollandaise infused with peptides.

This collaborative energy flowed directly to the table in a menu designed to nourish both body and spirit, featuring dishes like Wild Salmon with fermented beets and nettle pesto, Grilled Tenderloin of Elk, and a "Forest Decoction X" of medicinal mushrooms and tonic herbs to finish.

HOLOLIFE VIKING ACADEMY - RETREAT EXPERIENCE

The HOLOLIFE VIKING ACADEMY was never about historical reenactment. It was about extracting the timeless principles of our ancestors and applying them to the challenges of the 21st century. The constant notifications, the endless workdays, the mental and environmental stressors of modern life—these are our modern-day harsh winters and uncharted seas.

Short Stay in London

the way back to Boston, we have about 7 hours layover in London. Even though we had only 3 hours of free time in London, that was enough to get a taste of the city! The City of London is the ancient center of London but is actually the smallest city in England. The London that we’re familiar with covers a much wider metropolitan area

Helsinki 2019

With so many things to do in Helsinki, it's easy to see why the Finish capital city is a popular European destination. Finland’s capital was founded in the 16th century but the city you see today took shape in the 1800s.

Well, I did nothing special as a tourist in Helsinki. lol. I spent two days on Biohacker Summit and went to Rautalampi for the offsite event, so my wife and I had the only chance to walk around in the city after the evening when no place for tourists was open.

First time in Lapland

I didn’t expect to go for upgraded offsite, however, Teemu invited us to this fantastic offsite trip a day before! My wife and I were not prepared for Lapland weather, but thanks to many bits of help, we got all the gears we need and made it. Even though most of our time we spent in Finland was in Helsinki, just one-night experience in Lapland was beyond the above and an unforgettable experience in my life. I am so glad to write this blog as I try to remember what we did there.

Upgraded Dinner Helsinki 2019

It’s easy to remember our wedding anniversary because it is the day of Halloween. We didn’t expect to spend time in Finland, but it was an honor to spend our anniversary at VIP upgraded dinner. I was invited to the biohacker summit, and we visited Helsinki, Finland, and had a fantastic experience in Finland.
