I’m a writer, author, professor, and thinker who’s spent more than a decade covering human health and performance. My semimonthly newsletter delivers original reporting I’ve sourced from being on the ground and talking to the leading minds in the field (i.e., information you can’t get anywhere else). It also includes a curated list of the most life-enhancing stories, books, and studies I’ve read; podcasts I’ve listened to; products I’ve used; ideas I’ve grappled with (and sometimes, although not often, even had myself); and much more. I’ll give you practical new information that makes you think differently about your health—so you can live life better. Interested? Get on board.
