What happens when the future of humanity is no longer something we wait for but something we can choose?

When science gives us that kind of power, the real question becomes how wisely we’re prepared to use it. Today, Jonathan joins Julian to break down the fast-evolving world of embryo selection and what it could mean for the future of human evolution. Jonathan explains how IVF has grown from a niche medical procedure into a window into chromosomal health, genetic risk, and now polygenic traits that influence everything from disease risk to intelligence. They also revisit the history of eugenics, unpack the huge difference between past state-controlled abuses and today’s individual, non-coercive choices, and show why modern genomic tools aren’t about “playing God” but about making more informed, thoughtful decisions rooted in science.

What traits should families even care about? How do we keep individuality alive when selection becomes easier? And what happens when science, politics, and markets start overlapping in ways society isn’t quite prepared for? Julian and Jonathan dig into the complexity behind intelligence, personality, mental health, and moral behavior, while also touching on industry controversies, regulation challenges, and the importance of transparency in genetic prediction.

Jonathan Anomaly is a philosopher and researcher focused on the ethics of genetics, human enhancement, and emerging biotechnologies. He works at the intersection of science and philosophy, helping shape how genomic prediction and reproductive technologies are understood and responsibly used.

What if the real secret to aging well isn’t found in a futuristic lab, but in understanding your body more honestly than you ever have before?

From the very first question, this conversation challenges the assumptions most of us carry about health, longevity, and what it means to “measure” how well we’re aging. Instead of getting lost in the noise of biological clocks, trends, and high-priced diagnostics, Julian, Andrea, and Matt bring everything back to practical, evidence-backed fundamentals, the kind of markers any person can track, understand, and actually do something about. It’s a refreshing look at why knowing your sleep patterns, blood pressure, daily habits, and cognitive health may be more powerful than any shiny longevity product marketed today.

Andrea Maier is a leading geriatrician focused on improving health span through practical, evidence-based approaches, and Matt Kaeberlein is a renowned longevity researcher exploring the biology of aging and interventions to extend healthy life.

Their focus shifts to the future: personalized medicine, repurposed therapies, the role of AI, and the growing public demand for accessible, trustworthy health guidance. The ideas here don’t promise magic fixes or miracle pills; instead, they offer a roadmap for making better decisions, understanding your own data, and appreciating how much your daily environment shapes your long-term well-being. It’s an honest, grounded, and deeply encouraging exploration of how anyone can start improving their health span, no matter where they’re starting from.

What if the future of longevity isn’t just about living longer but finally understanding what your hormones have been trying to tell you?

Dr. Amy Killen joins us to unpack the science of longevity through the lens of women’s health and modern medicine. From hormone therapy and metabolic health to GLP-1 medications and cold plunging, Amy explains how small, evidence-based shifts can transform not just how long we live but how well we age.

But beyond the science, this episode is also about empowerment. Dr. Killen reminds us that true longevity means living with awareness of our bodies, our stress, and our disconnection from nature and each other. It’s a thought-provoking deep dive into how technology, environment, and mindset all intersect to shape the future of health.

What if your body’s greatest healer was already inside you, waiting to be switched on?

Big Announcement: Check out the NEW FREE Beyond Tomorrow Community at skool.com/beyond-tomorrow!

In this episode, stem cell scientist, author and STEMREGEN® founder Christian Drapeau shares three decades of research into the idea that adult stem cells are the body’s natural repair system - not science fiction, not just IV clinics for the elite, but a daily physiological reality.

We explore how stem cells circulate to repair damaged tissues, why releasing more of your own stem cells could be a powerful lever for regeneration, and where this sits in relation to invasive stem cell therapies, celebrity biohacking, and the explosion of “miracle” products in the market. Christian breaks down the science in accessible language, walks us through his global search for plant compounds that support stem cell function, and explains how fasting, meditation, nitric-oxide-rich foods and microcirculation all intersect with the body’s repair capacity—while staying grounded in caution, evidence, and ethical responsibility.

This episode is for anyone curious about stem cells, skeptical of snake oil, and ready to better understand how to work with (not against) their own biology. Nothing in this episode is medical advice; always speak to a qualified clinician before making decisions about treatments or supplements.📌 What You Will Learn

What if optimism wasn’t just a mindset but a daily act of strength and self-belief?

In this episode, psychiatrist and author Dr. Sue Varma unpacks the science and soul of practical optimism, a philosophy that blends positivity with action, helping us move from wishful thinking to real change. Drawing from her work with 9/11 survivors, her personal story of burnout, and decades in mental health, Dr. Varma reveals how optimism isn’t about ignoring pain, it’s about believing in the possibility of good while doing the work to make it happen.

We explore why our brains are wired toward negativity, how to reframe pessimistic thoughts into growth, and what neuroscience says about the left and right sides of our emotional lives. Dr. Varma breaks down her eight pillars of practical optimism, from finding purpose and processing emotions to building self-compassion and practicing healthy habits and offers four daily anchors anyone can start today: movement, mindfulness, mastery, and meaningful connection.

Discover how to turn hope into action and make optimism your superpower.

Practical Optimism: The Art, Science, and Practice of Exceptional Well-Being

What if the real path to longevity is mastering fundamentals while measuring what matters?

In this episode, recorded at Copenhagen Health Week, Siim Land - author, longevity educator, and anthropology graduate - breaks down a pragmatic roadmap to living longer and better. We get honest about diet debates, biomarkers, and what to do before you touch a single peptide or pharmaceutical.

We cover why adaptation defines human health, how to use blood work and objective markers to see risk decades ahead, the case for sleep, movement, diet, and environment, and where rapamycin, metformin, and methylene blue actually fit. Siim shares his supplement stack, the VO2 max trade-offs with creatine, and a grounded outlook on gene editing, embryo selection, and the ethics of enhancement.

📌 What You Will Learn
• Adaptation, anthropology, and why context matters
• Diet through the biomarker lens, not dogma
• The four fundamentals that move the needle
• Rapamycin, metformin, methylene blue: promise vs proof

What if longevity could be designed into your daily life? In this episode, Allen Law shares how he went from turning around a foreclosed hotel at 23 to building Morrow, a $170M wellness ecosystem that applies Lifestyle Medicine, coaching, community, and AI to close the gap between healthspan and lifespan.

We talk about the real bottleneck in health — action, not knowledge — and how to turn diagnostics and wearables into decisions you can stick with. Allen explains why he prices for the median, not the elite, what Singapore’s “engineered Blue Zone” gets right, and where the market is heading by 2030. We cover supplements vs food first, how to build adherence through community, and the potential of stem cells as regulations evolve.

This one is practical, hopeful, and focused on what works.
