The longevity industry is no longer a niche—it’s a global economic force. In this episode, Alexia Brue speaks with Phil Newman, founder of Longevity.Technology, about how aging science is evolving from the lab into commercial markets. From diagnostics and AI to digital therapeutics and cellular reprogramming, Phil offers a macro view of where capital is flowing, which technologies are gaining traction, and why “healthspan” is the true opportunity of our time.

Inside this episode, learn:

• How longevity evolved from fringe science to a trillion-dollar opportunity
  
  
• Why healthspan—not just lifespan—will define the next decade
  
  
• Why longevity clinics are the new bridge between wellness and clinical care
  
  
• The 25 sub-domains tracked by Longevity.Technology (e.g. epigenetics, AI diagnostics)
  
  
• What investors, entrepreneurs, and policymakers need to understand about this fast-moving sector

What if aging was optional? In this kickoff episode, physician, futurist, and entrepreneur Dr. Peter Diamandis joins host Alexia Brue to unpack the technologies fueling what he calls the “healthspan revolution.” From full-body diagnostics and AI-powered imaging to muscle-centric medicine and regenerative therapies, Diamandis outlines a near-future where living to 100 in vibrant health is not only possible—but increasingly plausible. He shares his own daily protocol, breaks down longevity escape velocity, and introduces listeners to the $101M Healthspan X Prize.

This episode also features insight from Beth McGroarty, VP of Research & Forecasting at the Global Wellness Institute, who explores how longevity has rapidly overtaken wellness in the cultural zeitgeist and explains why the convergence of biotech and wellness is both revolutionary and in urgent need of regulation.

Expanded Talking Points:

• What “longevity escape velocity” means—and why some believe it will arrive by 2030
• Peter’s personal protocol: sleep, supplements, training, and mindset
• Why muscle is a longevity organ and how to train for it
• How full-body MRIs, CTs, and genome sequencing are redefining preventive care
• The $101M Healthspan X Prize and the future of regenerative medicine
• Beth McGroarty: The rapid rise of longevity as a cultural movement, the pitfalls of “longevity washing,” and how the public’s appetite for deep scientific content is reshaping consumer education
