After facing 7 years of struggle with chronic fatigue syndrome & lyme disease resulting in panic attacks, derealization, debilitating brain fog, and many other mysterious symptoms, Kyle became obsessed with getting well. Despite being in his early 20s, he was forced down a winding road through countless healing systems, supplements, and diets, with no lasting solutions.
When he discovered mineral-balancing, he found it was the missing piece to his health puzzle, going on to fully recover and find the best health of his life. Several years later, he now helps others in similar health situations that he was in, as well as help people reach new heights in their physical & mental performance, beyond “biohacking.”

Charles Mayfield is an entrepreneur, regenerative farmer, and bestselling author known for his work at the intersection of sustainable agriculture and natural skincare. As the founder and CEO of Farrow Skincare, a Tennessee-based company launched in 2022, he pioneered the use of "SmartLard"—a chemical-free, waterless balm derived from pasture-raised animal fats—to create toxin-free products that nourish the skin microbiome. Drawing from his background in regenerative farming through Mayfield Pastures, where he raised high-quality, pasture-based meats, Mayfield's venture was sparked by a personal battle with severe sunburn and a passion for real, unprocessed ingredients. A co-author of the Paleo Comfort Foods cookbook series, he balances his role as a father with advocacy for land stewardship, ethical animal husbandry, and consumer transparency in the beauty industry. Under his leadership, Farrow has gained traction through podcast appearances and organic growth, aiming for scalable, eco-conscious expansion while supporting artisanal farms committed to soil health and community nutrition.
