What does it really take to live longer and feel better while doing it? In this episode, Dr. Mina speaks with wellness and longevity expert Tania St. Laurent to unpack what it really means to age well.

They go beyond the buzzwords to break down the three essential pillars of health—movement, nutrition, and recovery—and how to build simple, sustainable habits that support your well-being at every age. You’ll hear why longevity is about quality of life, not just quantity, how daily movement impacts your nervous system, and why an inside-out approach is key to vibrant health. If you're in your 40s and wondering how to prevent burnout, reduce stress, and feel like yourself again, this episode is for you.
