Lifespan vs. Health span

Maureen & Pierre discuss Attia's book, Outlive: the Science and Art of Longevity.

In addition to the main themes in the book, Attia self-reveals his own drive and inability to self-care, which led him to crisis.  Driven to point of working and almost missing his wife giving birth during a difficult pregnancy, only later does this imbalance in priorities bubble up as problematic behavior.

Another resource in balancing and caring for self in the mind-body-spirit space, check out Dr. Attia.  His forte is medical science related to healthy living.
