What would we do without all of our modern conveniences? Things like instant access to food, water, clothing, information, and entertainment.
Science, chemistry, and technology have made our lives bigger, better, faster and - well, more convenient.
The question is… at what cost?
Returning to the podcast this week is Darin Olien, health entrepreneur, activist, podcaster, co-host of the number one Netflix docuseries Down to Earth with Zac Efron, and author of bestsellers like SuperLife and Fatal Conveniences.
Darin says the chemicals and systems that process our food, our water, what we wear -- basically everything we consume -- is killing us and destroying the planet.
That’s a big statement. And a pretty shocking one, at that. But it didn’t come out of nowhere - Darin’s been traveling the world, sounding this alarm for decades with real concern for our collective health and the planet’s future.
And if he's intense about exposing the problems, he's even more passionate about finding the solutions.
In our conversation today, we unravel how to turn that fear and concern into real action - on a personal level, and in the world. He provides easy alternatives to our modern “fatal conveniences” that can help us regain our health and maybe save the planet.
It’s a discussion that couldn’t be more timely and urgent - and I’m confident you’ll leave it with some new learnings, a fresh perspective, and important insights into healthy living.
