In this 128th episode of Sober Head Podcast, Dr. Esra Çavuşoğlu, PhD welcomes Tina Woods. Tina Woods is a multifaceted figure: a systems thinker and one of the leading voices in longevity, the founder of Collider Health, the Executive Director of the International Institute of Longevity, and the author of “Live Longer with AI.” Her work focuses on healthy aging, artificial intelligence, technology, the exposome, and health policy at a systems level.
In this conversation, we explore some of the biggest questions emerging in longevity today: What is the exposome and how does it affect aging? How much of longevity is determined by genetics versus environment? Can chronic stress and loneliness accelerate aging? Can social connection improve healthspan? Can joy actually be measured biologically? What is JoyScore? And could music, dancing, community, and even a Longevity Rave become part of a new approach to healthy aging?
We also ask whether modern biohacking and longevity clinics are always supported by strong scientific evidence, whether we have become too focused on individual self-optimization, and whether the cities and environments we live in may influence our health more than we realize.
