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.

How to Use Wearable Tech and HRV Data to Find Hidden Stressors, Reverse Lifestyle Disease, and Extend Your Lifespan with Dr. Torkil Færø
Wearables promise insights into health, but most people are left asking: what do the numbers really mean, and how do they help us live longer? Behind those heart rate variability (HRV) scores and recovery charts lie clues about hidden stressors, like food, alcohol, poor sleep, and even altitude, that quietly shape how long and how well we live.
In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Torkil Færø, Norwegian physician, emergency doctor, and author of The Pulse Cure. With decades of experience treating patients and using HRV to decode the body’s stress response, he reveals how wearables uncover what standard medicine often ignores. We unpack why conventional training overlooks prevention, what HRV is able to measure, and how simple lifestyle shifts can add not just years, but quality years, to life.
"Heart rate variability is like watching your heart rate with a magnifying glass." ~ Dr. Torkil Færø
