Nick sits down with Mike Kilcullin, owner of Neuage Health & Wellness in Leawood, KS, for a deep dive into the world of hormone optimization, medical weight loss, and peptide therapy. Mike shares his personal story of hitting a wall with energy, motivation, and performance, and how discovering the root cause led him to leave corporate life and open a clinic focused on helping people understand their bodies at a deeper level.
They talk about what “optimal” hormones actually mean compared to “normal” lab ranges, how TRT and HRT can be safely managed through proper medical oversight, and why these therapies are far more individualized than most people realize. Mike also breaks down how GLP medications work, who they’re appropriate for, and why nutrition, protein intake, and strength training still matter no matter what route someone takes. They wrap up with a high-level look at peptide therapy, why it’s growing so quickly, and how it fits into the future of health, recovery, and performance.
This conversation brings clarity to a space full of confusion, helping you understand what’s hype, what’s real, and how to make smarter decisions for your health.
