What if you could extend your life by 25  years more - and still have the energy to enjoy them?

In this episode, I sit down with Naveen Bhat, ex‑finance exec now building 25 Years More, and Abhi Patwardhan, a Stanford Longevity ambassador who helps people redesign life after the corporate grind.

Naveen explains why he swapped boardrooms for biomarkers and how adding healthspan, not just lifespan, is his new bottom line. Abhi shares simple, science‑backed habits (think walking clubs and 80 % full plates) that keep purpose, bones, and bank accounts in balance. Together, they reveal why community outruns cardio machines and why midlife is the perfect time to hit refresh.

Join me for a candid chat that might just rewrite your own roadmap to a longer, better life!
