Episode 111: You Can’t Impact What You Can’t Measure

by

One of Dan’s key quotes, also a foundational coaching concept in Strategic Coach, is “your ears only hear and your eyes only see what you’re looking for,” meaning that we only notice breakthroughs when we search for them. In this episode, Peter and Dan discuss the many business examples and industries in which this applies.

In this episode:

  • Peter talks about longevity technologies and one of his latest companies, Fountain Life, which uses advanced diagnostics to measure every aspect of your health. The company is solely focused on collecting patient data, making it understandable, and providing actionable insights for lifestyle changes. 
  • Dan discusses the impact of mindset on longevity, offering myriad examples of friends and relatives whose failure to cultivate a longevity mindset has led to health problems.
  • Peter touches on the need for an improved health insurance system, one focused on technological breakthroughs and proactive extension of the healthy human lifespan.

Episode 55: The Immorality of Mortality

by

Peter and Dan discuss a recent trip to Vatican City, where the XPRIZE Vision Circle & Innovation Board members met on the annual Adventure Trip to discuss longevity and regenerative medicine, piggybacking on the United to Cure conference hosted by the Pope.

 

In this episode:

  • Peter discusses his opening remarks at the conference with fellow panelists George Church (one of the creators of gene-editing CRISPR technology), Martine Rothblatt (CEO of United Therapeutics, whose goal is to regenerate human organs), and Lou Reese and Mei Mei Hu (co-CEOs of United Neuroscience, focused on creating vaccines against Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease).
  • Dan brings up three keys to longevity: 1) Friends who are progressing, not declining, 2) Enough resources and income to be independent, and 3) Having a purpose, so you look forward to a future that is much greater than the past.
  • Peter and Dan discuss how morality has evolved over time, and how some ideas that were once considered immoral are now considered miracles.
