How To Live Life On Your Own Terms | AMA Vol. 24

Ross Szabo breaks down a clear, working definition of mental health, why the more words you have for your feelings the better your mental health becomes, the neuroscience behind coping, and how parents, teachers, and leaders can help young people build mental health skills before they ever reach a crisis point.

Dr. Stacy Sims, exercise physiologist, nutrition scientist, and bestselling author of ROAR and Next Level, joins Dr. Michael Gervais to share why so much of what women have been taught about training and nutrition was built on research that was never done on women, what actually changes during perimenopause and menopause, and how to work with your physiology rather than against it.

Eddie Jones, one of the most accomplished coaches in world rugby, who has led Australia, England, and guided Japan to one of the greatest upsets in the sport's history, joins Dr. Michael Gervais to share how he builds team identity, learns from past mistakes, creates training environments where mistakes become learning, and gets people to become more than they thought they could.

Dr. Dan Siegel, Harvard-trained clinical professor of psychiatry at UCLA, neuroscientist, and New York Times bestselling co-author of The Whole-Brain Child and No-Drama Discipline, joins Dr. Michael Gervais to share what four decades of attachment research reveal about the three things children need most from us, why repair matters more than perfection, and why understanding your own story may be the foundation of parenting well... and living a full life.

Dr. Valter Longo, professor and director of the Longevity Institute at USC and one of the world’s leading researchers on aging, nutrition, and lifespan, joins Dr. Michael Gervais to share what decades of research reveal about how the body protects and repairs itself, why he’s challenging the common narrative around protein, and how fasting-mimicking approaches may reshape the way we think about food, disease, and healthy aging.
