Brian Mcnally was raised in a working class family from Philadelphia where he was taught to value hard work, integrity and grit. Like most working class families they lived paycheck to paycheck. At a young age he recognized that in order to have anything beyond the necessities his parents worked so hard to provide he would need to contribute. At 9 he and his brother would raid the recycling bin in their apartment complex where they lived and take the cans to the recycling plant for the 5 cents a can return, he shoveled snow in the winter, worked in the kitchen of pizza shops at 13 and by 16 was holding down two jobs as a custodian while maintaining good grades and leading as captain of his high school lacrosse team. His father struggled with alcohol which created a tremendous strain on his family life, Brian had to grow up fast and quickly became fiercely independent. However driven and independant he was, he lacked direction and his desire for more led him down a road of selling drugs in his late teens and early twenties. He very narrowly escaped this chapter of his life with his freedom and decided a radical change was needed so he packed up and left for Florida where he attended the University of South Florida.

Anthony and TereZa Lolli are the power couple behind Biohack Yourself Media — the fastest-growing independent health and wellness news platform in the world — reaching millions with expert-driven journalism, science-backed content, and award-winning storytelling. But before they became health media disruptors… they were in survival mode.

Anthony Lolli is a real estate mogul and the best-selling author of The Heart of the Deal, who built a multimillion-dollar empire from scratch. But at 315 pounds, facing major health decline, he made the radical decision to document his 125-pound transformation on camera — launching the now-viral documentary Fat Lolli to Six Pack Lolli, which became a global phenomenon on Prime Video and Apple TV.

TereZa Hakobyan-Lolli is an Armenian-born actress, recording artist, mother, and editor-in-chief who turned postpartum hormonal collapse into a wellness revolution — winning two bikini world titles and documenting it all through films like The Super Lollis, Skin Deep, and SHEALED. Together, they’ve co-founded Lolli Brands Entertainment — producing more than a dozen acclaimed health and transformation documentaries. And they’re raising two young trailblazers, Love and Legend Lolli, who are already reporting on health news, building media projects, and investing in real estate — all before age 10.

In 2024, their influence reached national heights when Biohack Yourself Media was selected as the exclusive health press at RFK Jr.’s MAHA Inaugural Ball. They’re not just content creators — they’re immersive documentarians, performance marketers, and media entrepreneurs turning pain into purpose… and purpose into platforms.

Dr. Mamta Bhatt is a Harvard-trained scientist, bestselling author, keynote speaker, and holistic wellness expert who has been featured more than ten times on NBC and CBS for her work in improving performance, recovery, resilience, and long-term health.

After a two-decade career as a high-level executive and scientific career—no contributing to research, product development, and innovation for Fortune 50 companies—Dr. Bhatt’s life came to an abrupt halt. One morning, she woke up unable to lift herself out of bed. A crushing, unexplained fatigue left her bedridden, battling chronic exhaustion, hormonal imbalances, and digestive dysfunction, with no answers from conventional medicine.

Determined to heal, she turned back to first principles. Inspired by Hippocrates’ wisdom, “Let food be thy medicine,” she combined her scientific training with ancient healing systems, lifestyle medicine, nutrition, and mind-body regulation. Through rigorous self-experimentation, she developed her own proprietary, science-backed protocol.

Within just 90 days, her health was fully restored. She returned to energy, vitality—and even jogging again. The transformation was so profound that those who had watched her decline were stunned. Word spread quickly, and soon others began seeking her guidance. One by one, they too began experiencing measurable improvements in energy, metabolic health, blood sugar, cholesterol, inflammation, and overall well-being—often within the same 90-day window.

Today, Dr. Bhatt works with clients globally, including individuals from the U.S., U.K., Japan, and Australia, helping them reverse chronic conditions and reclaim vitality through lifestyle-based, sustainable solutions. Her work bridges rigorous science with real-world application—making it especially impactful for high performers, athletes, executives, and organizations seeking longevity, focus, and resilience.

Dr. Bhatt holds a PhD in Macromolecular Science, with executive education from Wharton Business School and Harvard Medical School. Beyond science, her journey led her inward. She spent decades immersed in a monastery in rural India, studying meditation, yoga, Ayurveda, naturopathy, breathwork, vipassana, reiki, and contemplative practices under the guidance of living masters—deepening her understanding of healing at the mind-body-spirit level.

She is the author of two bestselling books, Journey for Joy and Recipes for Joy, available on Amazon, which combine her personal healing story with practical, actionable strategies for overcoming chronic disease and restoring clarity, energy and joy. She is also a sought-after keynote speaker and works with corporations to improve mindset, well-being, and productivity using evidence-based lifestyle medicine.

Dr. Bhatt’s work is grounded in one simple truth: true performance and lasting health emerge when the body, mind, and spirit are brought back into alignment.
