    Paris Fashion Week and the Question Nobody in Fashion Asks: Does What You Wear Define Who You Are

    Méline heads to Paris Fashion Week to ask a question the fashion industry rarely stops to consider: does what you wear define who you are, or does who you are define what you wear? Joined by Alyne Hansen Damm, a fashion and luxury consultant with 27 years of experience working with some of the world's most prestigious brands, Méline attends four couture shows including George Hobeika, Rahul Mishra, Standing Ground and ArdAzAei Show, before sitting down with Alyne to explore the deeper connection between style, identity, confidence and wellbeing.

    How to Live Past 100 in Good Health According to a Longevity Doctor in Europe's Longest Living City

    What does it actually take to live well past 100? Javier Ramírez Sabau, founder of Clínica Neleva in Madrid, one of Europe's leading longevity clinics, says the answer is simpler and more powerful than most people expect. In this short, Javier shares the three things that matter most for longevity, why healthspan matters far more than lifespan, and the one thing he says is more important than any diet, supplement, or biomarker test. He explains: ◼ Why the goal is not living longer but living better for longer ◼ Why a positive mindset is the single most important factor in health ◼ How optimising your biomarkers delays the effects of ageing ◼ Why living in better health quality will naturally take you well above 100 You can follow Clinica Neleva here: ◼ Website: https://clinicaneleva.com/ ◼ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/clinicaneleva/ **This content is for informational purposes only and should not be considered medical advice.

    How to Stop Overthinking at Night: A Hypnotherapist Explains What Actually Works

    Malminder Gill has been a hypnotherapist for over 16 years. She has worked in rehab centres around the world, written a book of therapeutic sleep stories, and built an entire practice from word of mouth alone. When it comes to overthinking and sleep, she speaks from personal experience: at 18, she suffered a year of insomnia following a car accident and found a solution in hypnotherapy. In this conversation, Méline sits down with Malminder to explore what hypnotherapy actually is, how the subconscious mind controls far more of your behaviour than you think, and why your brain is already entering trance states multiple times a day without you realising it.  Malminder also reveals the one technique you can practise at home tonight to finally quiet a racing mind, and explains why the AI therapy chatbot she tried left her with more questions than answers. She explains: ◼ Why your subconscious mind controls far more of your behaviour than you think ◼ How scrolling Instagram puts your brain into the exact same state as clinical hypnotherapy ◼ Why it is the emotion attached to a memory, not the memory itself, that keeps you stuck ◼ The ethical grey area around using hypnotherapy to recover forgotten memories ◼ Why AI therapy always validated her and why that is a serious problem ◼ The room visualisation technique you can practise tonight to quiet a racing mind ◼ Why bad memories make your life smaller and what hypnotherapy actually does about it You can follow Malminder here: ◼ Website: https://www.malmindergill.com ◼ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/malminder.gill/ **This content is for informational purposes only and should not be considered medical advice.

    88% of People Who Think They Are Healthy Already Have Heart Disease. Here Is What to Do About It

    Bill Kapp is a former orthopaedic surgeon who built nine hospitals, founded Fountain Life alongside Peter Diamandis and Tony Robbins, voted the number one longevity centre in the world by the Buck Institute.  He started Fountain Life because of one devastating realisation: the American healthcare system is designed to treat disease, not prevent it. And by the time most people find out they are sick, it is already too late. In this conversation, Bill reveals why 88% of Fountain Life members who consider themselves healthy already show signs of cardiac disease, why the United States spends $5.3 trillion on healthcare and still ranks 64th in longevity, and what his mother's death from stage four ovarian cancer taught him about the cost of waiting for symptoms.  He also explains why early detection could lower healthcare costs by 70%, why GLP-1 drugs are the first true longevity medication, and the two things he says will do more for your long-term health than almost anything else. He explains: ◼ How Fountain Life collects 240GB of data about your body and turns it into an action plan in under five minutes using AI ◼ Why 60% of US bankruptcies are caused by medical debt and how preventive care fixes that ◼ The 12 hallmarks of ageing and which ones you can actually change right now ◼ Why GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic may be the first true class of longevity medication ◼ Why women should be on hormone replacement for life, not just ten years ◼ The two daily habits that protect your long-term health more than anything else: muscle mass and sleep You can follow Bill and Fountain Life here: ◼ Website: https://www.fountainlife.com ◼ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/fountainlife **This content is for informational purposes only and should not be considered medical advice.

    Peter Diamandis: How to Reverse Ageing and Live Longer Than You Think Is Possible

    Peter Diamandis is one of the world's leading voices on longevity, exponential technology, and the future of human health. He is the founder of XPRIZE, co-founder of Singularity University, and the founder of Fountain Life, an advanced health and longevity centre that collects 200GB of data about your body in a single day to find what conventional medicine misses entirely. In this conversation, Peter shares why medicine is about to undergo the most dramatic transformation in human history, why longevity escape velocity is coming by 2033, and why most people know more about what is happening inside their car than inside their own body.
