What if your next vacation could actually add years to your life?

In this mind-expanding and deeply motivating episode, Kelly sits down with Dr. Eric Wolk—ER physician turned preventative health expert and founder of Jetset Meds—to explore the unexpected ways travel fuels your health, happiness, and longevity.

From near-misses on remote beaches to concierge medicine with a passport-first philosophy, Dr. Wolk shares how his nine pillars of lifelong health were born—and why skipping your next trip might do more harm than good. Whether you're a wellness junkie, a nervous flyer, or somewhere in between, this episode will shift the way you think about your health…and your next adventure.

  • How travel boosts brain health and fights cognitive decline
  • The 9 holistic pillars of lifelong vitality (and how to actually implement them)
  • Why your healthspan matters more than your lifespan
  • Real talk on travel risks, Jetset Meds, and being prepared without the panic
  • What London cab drivers, dopamine, and the Andes have in common
