Healthspan isn’t just about how long you live. It’s about why you live.
In this episode of The Menopause Method, Cam Allen shares why purpose and belief are powerful longevity tools, just as important as food or exercise. Research shows that people with a strong sense of purpose live longer, recover faster, and are less likely to develop chronic disease.
You’ll hear Cam’s own story of leaving teaching, walking through divorce and empty nest, and finding renewal in faith and community at 42. You’ll also learn how purpose shows up in the four bodies (physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual) and simple, specific ways to reconnect with meaning in midlife.
What you’ll learn in this episode:

• The research on purpose, faith, and healthspan
• Why belief and community protect longevity
• How purpose shows up through the 4 Bodies
• Practical ways to reconnect with your “why” in midlife
• Why health isn’t just about steps or protein. It's about meaning
