## Resource

What if the biggest threat to human health isn't hidden in our bloodwork, hormones, or genetics—but in the environment we've created around ourselves? Caroline Howell challenges the modern definition of health by arguing that true wellness cannot exist apart from the ecosystems that sustain us. From climate change and biodiversity loss to glyphosate, regenerative agriculture, longevity culture, and our growing disconnection from nature, this conversation explores what it means to become a positive contributor rather than an extractor. Caroline shares how leaving private equity and relocating to Panama transformed her health, purpose, and relationship with the natural world, while offering a hopeful vision for how technology, business, and human ingenuity can help regenerate life instead of depleting it.
