Starting my medical journey at 16 and becoming one of the youngest doctors in the country, studying and training at the Mayo Clinic, Harvard Business School, Singularity University and other prestigious institutions, becoming a board certified surgeon and accumulating over two decades of practice, I have discovered that a mere 20% of health knowledge yields 80% of the results. That's why this podcast is all about cutting through the noise on how to turn back the aging clock. I interview world-renowned medical practitioners, doctors, experts, and thought leaders, offering you a step-by-step guide and actionable advice to proactively avoid disease and optimize your health. Plus, I share weekly solo episodes giving you quick, digestible protocols for successfully extending your healthspan.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-09T18:18:24.162936+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/extend-podcast-with-darshan-shah-md-7064213"},"episode":{"title":"168.

We look at biomarkers, sleep, nutrition, exercise, recovery, and protocols, hoping that if we get enough of the physical pieces right, we will finally feel better, stronger, and more alive. Yet there is another layer that can quietly shape everything from the way we handle stress to the way we heal, lead, love, perform, and experience our own potential. In this episode of Extend, I sit down with Peter Crone to explore why true vitality is not only about what is happening in the body, but also about the subconscious stories shaping the mind. We get into the patterns of inadequacy, insecurity, and scarcity, how they can keep the nervous system in survival, why health is not simply the absence of disease, and how the narratives we live inside can affect our physiology, relationships, performance, and ability to feel free. This conversation matters because it challenges the idea that physical optimization alone is enough when the mind is still operating from old constraints. Peter Crone is a renowned thought leader in human awakening and potential who helps people dissolve the subconscious constraints shaping their behaviour, health, relationships, and performance. As a transformation coach, writer, speaker, and Ayurvedic practitioner, he has become one of the most trusted voices helping elite athletes, CEOs, and people from all walks of life move beyond survival patterns and access greater freedom, clarity, and ease.
