When most people hear about health and wellness, they instantly think not again. We’re constantly bombarded with information about health and wellness to the point where it can be overwhelming to know what really matters.

But imagine living a longer life but not just adding years—adding years full of energy, wellness, and vitality?

Tell me one thing in your life that is more important than longevity and wellness.

This week’s episode is all about increasing your lifespan and making those extra years full of vigor and joy.

I’ve brought back Rhya Pachin, a top-notch dietitian specializing in functional nutrition, gut health, and hormone balance.

Rhya’s tips are key for anyone in midlife, especially women facing the challenges of menopause or just looking for ways to live their best, healthiest life. She shares some fantastic advice on supplements you may already know, like turmeric and others you’ll want to get into right away, like DIM and creatine.

She will be on stage at OP Summit 2025 to talk more about longevity but in the meantime, tune in to this episode to learn of some health tips you’ll never hear from your doctor.
