Episode 3205:

Ryan Frederick challenges the longevity obsession by emphasizing healthspan, the years lived with vitality and purpose, as the smarter, more fulfilling investment. He reveals how daily lifestyle choices, social connections, and even where we live play a far greater role than genetics in shaping our well-being, and how prioritizing health now can extend not just life but also financial security and quality of life.
