Episode 028 - The Withdraw Reset — Clear the Static and Come Back Online

Brandon Sojka Season 1 Episode 28

If you feel flat, fried, and fragile—even while doing everything “right”—your Withdraw domain may be off. This is the quiet shutdown: epigenetic dysfunction, clogged autophagy, and broken cellular communication. 

In this episode, Brandon maps a **Withdraw Reset** that reduces interference so your systems can hear again. You’ll learn core tools (butyrate/BIOMEnd®, zinc carnosine, glutamine, ImmunoLin®, quercetin/EGCG, fiber blends), movement for lymph & reconnection, circadian scaffolding, and emotional/environmental safety—then a gentle 2‑week plan.

What we cover:

• Why Withdraw is the final drift—and the hardest to see

• The 3 hallmarks: epigenetic dysfunction, disabled macroautophagy, altered intercellular communication

• Core tools that lower noise (gut barrier, immune tolerance, mitochondrial calm)

• Movement, lymph, and somatic reconnection (walks, breathing, fascia work)

• Sleep, circadian anchors, and caffeine timing (glymphatic repair)

• Emotional & environmental safety (mold/PM2.5/ALAN, micro‑rituals)

• The 2‑Week Withdraw Reset—restoration before optimization
