Approved bio

Oscar Trelles is the founder of Breathing Flame and author of The Human OS Manual, a forthcoming book about why self-improvement fails when it ignores the system running underneath.

After more than two decades building and investing across technology, media, real estate, and human performance, his work now focuses on how energy, clarity, behavior, recovery, adaptation, and healthspan are shaped by the conditions people operate inside.

Through Breathing Flame, the Reverse Aging Challenge, and related Human OS initiatives, Oscar works at the intersection of nervous system regulation, healthspan, environmental design, leadership, and sustainable performance.

  • Burnout as accumulated operating cost
  • Healthspan beyond biohacking
  • Nervous system regulation for founders and leaders
  • Why environment beats intention

  • Human performance without optimization theater
  • Community as biological infrastructure
