In this episode, I’m in the hot seat on Marc Champagne’s Behind the Human podcast, talking identity, legacy, and the story behind my documentary, Boundless: The Man Who Became Human. You’ll hear how tying my worth to achievement pulled me away from my family, the rites of passage I built for my sons, where the “Boundless” name came from, and how Caleb Applegate created a film that Zac Efron executive produced.

We also dig into questions from the AI-powered wisdom keepers in Marc’s new book, You’re Invited, including which practices I’d keep if none of them extended my life and what I finally stopped doing. You’ll learn why exercise beats piling on biohacks, how I stay true to my creative work, my daily, weekly, and annual reflection rituals, what excites me in the longevity space, and what my late father would be proudest of in how I’m raising my sons.

You can find his new book, You’re Invited, here.

My new book Precepts: A 100-Day Guide to Living Fully, is also out now. You can order it here.
