## Resource

You can find more here from Alan: https://alanrozanski.com/⁠ https://www.linkedin.com/in/alanrozanski/ Longevity isn’t just about cholesterol, blood pressure, or diet. In this episode, Dr. Alan Rozanski — cardiologist, Professor of Medicine at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, Director of Nuclear Cardiology at Mount Sinai Morningside, and recently featured in TIME — explains why healthy aging is about far more than traditional heart health metrics. Dr. Rozanski is helping redefine cardiovascular care by focusing on the bigger drivers of vitality and longevity: strength, stress resilience, mindset, purpose, and social connection. He shares his research-backed framework, the Six Domains of Optimal Health & Vitality, and how high-achieving professionals can use it to stay sharp, energetic, and resilient long term. In this episode, we explore: • Why cholesterol and blood pressure don’t tell the full story of heart health • The real drivers of longevity and healthy aging • How stress resilience impacts cardiovascular health • The connection between mindset, purpose, and long-term vitality • Why strength and social connection are critical for aging well • Practical ways to protect your heart and extend your performance lifespan If you’re a driven professional who wants to maintain energy, leadership capacity, and mental sharpness for decades — this conversation is essential.
