Live Beyond the Norms
You want to have a spectacular life. You want to live longer as long as you are healthy mentally and physically.
This podcast has been a vision of mine for the last two and a half years. As I continue to share with people the astounding results, 90% extension of life in test subjects, reported in peer-reviewed published research about our molecule ESS60, I started to think about what it would be like to live longer. Not just longer, but ALOT longer. I also started thinking about how living longer would disrupt the vision many people had about their lives and the final years of that life.
This podcast is big enough to cover all aspects of Living Beyond the Norms but it will start and probably focus on health and longevity and the cutting-edge research which promises significantly longer and healthier living. It will also cover the unconventional strategies employed today by today's experts to help people Live Beyond the Norms.

Menopause isn’t just hot flashes and mood swings—it’s a transformative phase impacting sleep, brain health, and overall vitality. For 14 years, Andrea Donsky navigated perimenopause unknowingly, battling symptoms she didn’t realize were tied to hormonal shifts.
Now a published researcher and menopause educator with nearly 350,000 TikTok followers, Andrea is rewriting the narrative around “the change.”
Through her platform, We Are Morphus, Andrea combines science-backed supplements, nutritional strategies, and raw honesty to help women reclaim control.
In this episode, Andrea breaks down the biggest misconceptions around perimenopause and menopause, the 103 symptoms women should be aware of (yes, there are way more than the 34 you’ve heard about), and the crucial role that sleep, nutrition, and mindset play in navigating this life stage.
"We are not going into perimenopause and menopause quietly. We’re screaming it from the rooftops to change the story for all women coming after us." ~ Andrea Donsky
