What if the biggest threat to your brain health isn’t age—but routine?


In this second episode of our brain health series, Jasbir and Zann sit down with Dr. Michael Netzley, founder of Extend My Runway and Thrive After 45, to explore how we can preserve and strengthen brain health as we age.
The focus this time: nutrition, social connection, and novelty. From debunking supplement myths and unpacking the power of protein, to revealing why friendships and fresh experiences literally rewire your brain, this episode blends science with simple, practical strategies you can start today.
Candid, energizing, and grounded in research—this is the conversation that will challenge how you think about food, connection, and curiosity in your daily life.
