Vanja reveals why Okinawa, Japan has more people living past 100 than anywhere else on Earth - and it's not genetics. Only 20% of your lifespan comes down to DNA, the other 80% is how you live. Discover how Okinawans embed movement into daily life through squatting, carrying groceries, and sitting on the floor - they're not exercising, they're living, but their life is training their body. Learn about the five Blue Zones, the power of moai (community circles), ikigai (purpose), and how to apply these principles in a world designed to break you down. If you can't get up from the floor without using your hands at 85, that fragility wasn't built overnight - it was decades of neglect. This episode will change how you think about aging, movement, and building a body that lasts.
