Davinia Taylor: From Boozy Nights to Biohacking Brilliance
Episode description
This week, Hamish sits down with the incredible Davinia Taylor—former Hollyoaks actress turned sober hero and health warrior. In this eye-opening conversation, Davinia shares her journey from alcohol-fuelled chaos to reclaiming her health through sobriety and metabolic science.
She opens up about battling postnatal depression, understanding dopamine-driven alcohol-seeking behaviours, and why peri-menopause can make quitting booze even trickier. Davinia also reveals the power of tracking your cycle, advocating for your own health, and why you should demand more from your doctor—especially when it comes to blood tests and hormonal balance.
Plus, we explore how technology is revolutionising women’s health, from wearable trackers to apps that decode hormonal shifts, helping women understand their bodies like never before.
And here’s something you might not have considered—could a little bit of testosterone be the missing piece for women’s health? Davinia unpacks why this often-overlooked hormone can be a game-changer for energy, confidence, and overall well-being.
If you’re feeling sober but stuck in a flat mood, struggling with motivation, or just not feeling quite right, this episode has the answers. It might not be your willpower or mindset—it could all be down to your gut.
In this insightful episode Davinia explains how what you eat, how you move, and the way you support your metabolic health can be the key to rewiring your brain for long-term happiness and balance.
It’s an episode packed with science, sass, and serious inspiration—don’t miss it!
