Dr. Peter Attia’s MOST personal interview yet.

Best-selling author of Outlive & host of The Drive podcast Dr. Peter Attia reveals why the current medical model is failing us and how a focus on combating the erosion of healthspan could be the secret to a fuller, richer life.

We can PREVENT chronic diseases - Dr. Attia's insights will change the way you think about your health forever!

He helps us break down everything from the real reasons we should avoid certain foods and the impact of mental health on our physical well-being, to the role of spirituality as a healing component to terminal illness and trauma. We also cover:

- Why most people today are dying from chronic diseases
- Impediments our doctors are currently facing

- How to detach your behaviors from your urges

Dr. Attia GETS PERSONAL in a way you've never seen him before. He opens up about:
- Being addicted to workaholism, perfectionism, anger, and even oxycontin
- The physiological ramifications he experienced from going cold turkey off of oxytocin
- His psychedelic experiences
- What numbing the pain looks like for him now
- Why the underlying emotion under his anger is helplessness
