The 19-Year-Old Trying To Become The Oldest Man Alive: Inside The Blueprint Cult – Talmage Johnson
Thrilled to welcome Talmage Johnson today on Live Well Be Well! After interviewing his father Bryan Johnson two years ago, I'm finally sitting down with the younger half of this pioneering health duo to discuss his journey with Blueprint – the revolutionary health protocol that's challenging how we approach longevity.At just 19 years old, Talmage offers a refreshingly thoughtful perspective on health optimisation. Talmage shares how his version of Blueprint focuses primarily on the foundational pillars of sleep, nutrition, and exercise. We dive deep into his daily routine – from his 4-6 hour eating window and plant-based diet to his disciplined sleep schedule and comprehensive fitness regimen.Talmage speaks candidly about balancing extreme discipline with enjoying life, his relationship with data tracking, and his unique perspective on relationships at his age. His insight into cultivating health habits at such a young age provides valuable wisdom for listeners of all generations.About Talmage Johnson:Talmage Johnson is a health advocate and entrepreneur who began following the Blueprint protocol at age 16. Now at 19, he works with his father Bryan Johnson at their health company while taking a gap year from university. He shares his health journey publicly, participating in what he calls "compounding health" - making a long-term investment in his future self through disciplined health practices.Connect with Talmage Johnson:Instagram: @talmagejohnson_X: @talmagejohnson_LinkedIn: Talmage JohnsonLove, Sarah Ann 💛***Thank you to my wonderful sponsors!

Radhika Das: The #1 Shift That Transformed My Relationships | 5 Questions
Each week, I ask my guest five questions designed to nourish their mind, body, and soul pre interview. These questions help us explore what makes each guest tick as an imperfect, evolving human, taking them out of their heads and into their bodies.While our discussions often go deep into the intellect, these questions invite my guests to step out of their comfort zones, gain a fresh perspective, and perhaps hold a bit more compassion for themselves. I believe this shift from headspace to heart space is something we can all relate to – it’s the universal journey of being human.And as a listener, I hope you’ll come away feeling a little more connected, not only to these stories but to the shared truths and vulnerabilities we uncover here. Each conversation is an opportunity to peek behind the scenes and share in the humanity of those on the other side of the microphone.Fifth - Bhakti Yoga teacher, Radhika DasListen to the full episode here.Watch the full episode on YouTube here.***Thank you to my wonderful sponsors!
