The Lord Mayor tells an audience of hundreds from the construction and development industry that he follows an unusual morning practice he describes as “biohacking.” Reporting across multiple outlets says the comment is made in the context of managing the demands of what he calls a high-stress job and the need to “stay alive.”

The articles present the remarks as a personal habit shared during an event attended by people in construction and development. While the sources agree on the framing—that the Lord Mayor describes himself as “kind of into biohacking” and links the practice to staying energised and coping with stress—they do not provide consistent detailed information on the specific steps of the routine in the excerpts supplied.

Overall, the coverage focuses on the Lord Mayor’s disclosure of a biohacking-style approach to his mornings and his explanation that it is part of his broader strategy for functioning in a high-pressure role. The reports do not indicate that authorities have verified or commented on the practice.
