In this episode, I’m breaking down some of the biggest mistakes people make when getting started with peptides. Honestly, it can feel like the wild west out there—so much info, so many opinions, and not a lot of clarity. I’ve been in this space for a while now, and I’ve definitely learned a lot through trial and error. That’s why I always tell people: do your research before jumping into any peptide protocol.

One of the most important things I’ve found is that you have to know your goal before choosing a peptide. Are you trying to lose fat? Sleep better? Boost your focus? Having a clear goal makes it so much easier to pick the right peptide and get results that actually match what you’re aiming for.

I also talk about stacking—what works, what doesn’t, and why randomly combining peptides without understanding how they work can totally backfire. I’ve seen it happen. Dosing is another big one. More isn’t always better, and starting too high or too low can lead to disappointment—or side effects.

At the end of the day, peptides are powerful tools, but they’re not magic. They work best when you’ve already got your basics dialed in—nutrition, sleep, stress, recovery. This episode is all about helping you lay that foundation so you can actually get the most out of your peptide journey.

In this episode, I’m diving into one of the most exciting peptides in the fat loss space right now — Retatrutide. I’ll break down what makes it different from semaglutide and tirzepatide, including how it works as a triple agonist that targets three key metabolic pathways. I’ll also cover what the clinical trials are showing so far, and why the results are already looking more promising than the GLP-1s that came before it. If you’re thinking about switching from sema or tirz, I’ll walk through how to make that transition, what side effects to watch for, and how to minimize them. My goal with this one is to give you a clear, real-world look at how Retatrutide works and what to expect if you’re considering it as part of your fat loss strategy.

Takeaways:

• The recent launch of thepeptique.com coincided with my 50th birthday celebration, marking a significant milestone.
• Retatrutide is positioned as a next-generation fat loss peptide, currently in phase 3 clinical trials.
• The unique mechanism of retatrutide involves activation of multiple receptors, enhancing metabolic efficiency.
• Clinical trials indicate that retatrutide may facilitate weight loss without plateauing as quickly as other peptides.
• It is crucial to maintain proper nutrition while using retatrutide to support muscle retention during fat loss.
• Potential side effects of retatrutide include gastrointestinal symptoms, which can be managed with proper dosing.

The Peptique is officially live, and I just want to take a moment to say thank you. Launching this brand has been a huge milestone—and honestly, it came with all the emotions: excitement, nerves, and a lot of behind-the-scenes hustle. But the feedback and support so far have been incredible, and I’m so grateful for this community that’s continuing to grow around it.

In this episode, I’m diving into one of my favorite topics for summer: skin health. Specifically, how the Glow Stack and Melanotan 1 work together as the ultimate skin optimization duo.

The Glow Stack—made up of GHK-Cu, BPC-157, and TB-500—was built to support collagen production, cellular repair, and overall skin rejuvenation from the inside out. And when you pair it with Melanotan 1, a peptide that stimulates your body’s natural melanin production, you’re not just getting a glow—you’re getting real skin protection and long-term benefits without baking in the sun.

I’ll break down how these peptides work, how they stack together, and why this combo is one of the most effective (and safest) ways to support skin health and that bronzed summer look—without relying on harmful UV exposure.

If summer skin is on your radar, you’re going to love this one.

Takeaways:

• The Peptique was officially launched, marking a significant milestone for us today.
• Melanitan one is a synthetic analog that enhances melanin production for natural tanning.
• The Glow Stack promotes collagen production and improves skin health from cellular levels.
• Combining Melanitan one with the Glow Stack addresses both skin pigmentation and quality effectively.
