Episode notes
Health Debt From Complacency
- Financial advisors often take their health for granted because they are born with good health and never had to work for it.
- This complacency leads to accumulated "health debt" that becomes expensive and difficult to pay off later in life.

- Financial advisors experience chronic moderate stress averaging 7 out of 10, much higher than during the 2008 financial crisis.
- This chronic stress harms health by affecting body composition, blood pressure, and arterial health.

- Advisors who allocate 10% of their waking day to self-care have better health.
- This 10% can be any intentional activity that replenishes them, not necessarily rigorous exercise.
