Deep dives
The Burden of Unrealistic Expectations
Society often places unrealistic expectations on individuals who aggressively pursue health and longevity. The notion that spending large sums on health protocols should yield youthful appearances, regardless of age, is unfounded and dismisses the complexities of biological aging. Public figures, including those in the tech industry, may exacerbate this issue by promoting a culture of extreme measures and grind culture, which sets unattainable standards for others. Such dynamics can foster a narrative where individuals feel pressured to conform to unrealistic ideals rather than focusing on their unique health journeys.
