What if the real key to living longer and better isn’t found in another supplement—but in your relationships, mindset, and how you design your lifestyle?

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Manoj Agrawal, longevity physician and founder of Blue Wealth, a precision medicine practice helping high performers extend their healthspan and upgrade their quality of life.

Dr. Agrawal was once a nationally recognized radiation oncologist treating cancer patients—but witnessing how lifestyle choices fueled disease inspired him to shift his focus from treating illness to preventing it.

  • The biggest misconceptions about aging and how to avoid common traps

  • The core lab tests and biologic age markers he runs with every client

  • Gut health, serotonin, and the critical gut-brain connection

  • How AI and science are pushing us closer to age reversal breakthroughs
