Being You with Lisa Raleigh and Stafford Masie

Heal Your Physiology, Heal Your Life

The science behind stress, resilience, and real vitality. What if your stress, energy, resilience, and emotional state could finally be measured... not guessed? In this episode, Lisa and Stafford sit down with Dr. Costa and Toni, the pioneers behind the new plenti VitaNeu test, to explore the science of physiology and the revolutionary idea that when you heal your physiology, you heal your life. We unpack why Dr. Costa left conventional medicine, Toni’s journey through cutting-edge wellness tech, and how understanding the nervous system changes everything; from burnout and anxiety to performance and longevity. This isn’t theory. It’s data-driven insight into how the body and mind truly communicate. If you’ve ever wondered why some wellness tools work for others and not for you, how stress silently rewires the body, or how to finally understand what's going on inside you... this conversation will change the way you see your health forever.
