#54 Biohacking Your Way To a Braver Life and Business with Karen Kissane
This week, I’m joined by the incredible Karen Kissane, whose story of leaving corporate after facing maternity discrimination kickstarted a business (and personal) journey built on relentless courage. Now, as a leader in the biohacking space, Karen shares how biology, mindset, and strategy intersect to help you create a braver, more aligned business.
From scaling a seven-figure coaching business to plunging into icy Finnish waters (literally), Karen reveals the power of knowing what you need to thrive—especially when everything feels hard.
We talk about standing up for yourself, why “strategy isn’t enough,” and how biohacking became the missing piece in Karen’s business and life.
Meet Karen Kissane
When the path didn’t exist, Karen Kissane built her own - and turned it into a seven-figure business that now helps experts and entrepreneurs do the same. An award-winning business coach, entrepreneur, author and biohacker, she’s the founder of tech platform ExpertSpace and the Biohack Your Business® movement, where high-performance strategy meets radical self-optimisation.
After leaving the UK for France, navigating the pressures of building a seven-figure business, and facing some of life’s toughest personal and professional battles head-on, Karen discovered that real success comes from raising your game in every dimension - capacity, energy, focus, and strategy.
She’s helped thousands of entrepreneurs scale profitably by combining bold strategy with cutting-edge systems, from automation and tech stacks to the neuroscience of energy management and simple but highly effective business strategies that work.
Karen lives what she teaches - every strategy, every system, every breakthrough has been road-tested in her own business and life. Whether she’s coaching business owners through high-stakes growth, plunging into icy water to reset her nervous system, or challenging the old ways of working, she’s driven by one belief: when you master your biology, you unlock your bravest business decisions.
Today, Karen is on a mission to show entrepreneurs that Self actualisation is the ultimate business strategy. When you combine bold decision-making with intelligent systems, streamlined processes, and a business model designed for scale, you create unstoppable momentum. Her philosophy is simple: when you lead with courage and operate with intention and precision, growth stops being a gamble and starts becoming inevitable.
