Earlier this week, I had the privilege of speaking to a group of high-performing CEOs from Robert Schmidt's Vistage Worldwide, Inc. group. During our session, we explored a reimagined framework for taking ownership of our health and the aging process. Here are a few key takeaways:
Longevity is a Choice. Longevity isn't about luck or good genes; it's about the daily habits and choices we make. We often accept declining memory and the onset of disease as “normal” or “inevitable,” but it doesn’t have to be this way.
Longevity is an Investment. You wouldn’t retire without saving for your future, yet many of us enter our final few decades in a health deficit with aches, pains, and other chronic diseases slowly degrading our quality of life. It’s never too early or too late for improvement.. By treating health as an investment, we can ensure our final decades are filled with vitality, energy, and mobility.
Aging is a NOW Issue, for everyone. Chronic diseases like heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and Alzheimer’s don’t appear suddenly; they develop over decades. By detecting early warning signs and taking corrective action, it’s possible to prevent or delay these conditions. With simple blood tests and screenings that cost less than a month in a nursing home, we may avoid needing one for years, if ever.
Aging is Treatable. While we all face mortality, there's no need to endure a prolonged, painful decline. Our lifespan should align with our health span. By taking decisive action based on your individual risk factors and biochemistry, our final years will be dedicated to the people and pursuits that give our lives meaning.
I look forward to continuing discussions like this and reshaping our narratives and expectations around aging and long-term health. 💪✨
