Wellness industry veteran Alexia Brue hosts the first 10 episodes of The Wellness Roundtable. Alexia is the co-founder of award-winning media company, Well+Good, and a longevity entrepreneur, whose latest venture is The Practice: Habits for Healthspan. Alexia sits down with renowned scientists, clinicians, CEOs and investors to discuss where lifespan and healthspan are pushing into new frontiers, such as biomarkers, AI, exercise and nutrition, and regenerative medicine. The provocative conversations range from surprising new research on women’s longevity to whether the longevity boom represents a new golden age or gold rush.

The Wellness Roundtable will explore a new topic every ten episodes, with a fresh host at the helm. The longevity series is sponsored by Fountain Life, a leading science-backed longevity center, powered by AI.

Phil Newman: “Mapping the Future of Longevity”

The longevity industry is no longer niche, it’s a global economic force. Phil Newman, the London-based founder of Longevity.Technology, explains how aging science is moving from the laboratory to the marketplace. From diagnostics and AI to digital therapeutics and cellular reprogramming, he offers a broad overview of where the capital is flowing, which technologies are gaining most traction, and why healthspan is the greatest opportunity of our time.

Anna Bjurstam: “Where Wellness Meets Longevity”

Wellness pioneer Bjurstam, with decades of international experience across hospitality, spa and integrative health, discusses the evolving relationship between wellness and longevity—and why these two frameworks must converge for both to remain meaningful. Discussing everything from Blue Zones and wearables to the spiritual dimensions of aging well, she also addresses the growing problem of “longevity washing,” and how practitioners can maintain integrity in a hyper-commercialized sector.

Dr. Andrea Maier: “The Science of Healthy Longevity”

The Singapore-based geroscientist and longevity physician explores how aging is no longer a fixed destiny, but increasingly a modifiable risk factor. As co-founder of Chi Longevity Clinics, she discusses how the company is translating epigenetic science, precision medicine, and behavioral coaching into scalable healthspan interventions. From biological aging clocks to the future of annual checkups, she offers a pragmatic look at the slow shift from sick care to proactive longevity care.

Dr. Adeel Khan: “Regenerative Medicine and the Next Frontier of Longevity”

Regenerative medicine is no longer science fiction. Dr. Adeel Khan, a global leader in cell therapy innovation, takes a deep dive into the state of the science behind stem cells, gene editing and tissue engineering. From MSCs and exosomes to the ethics of access and experimentation, he unpacks both the promise and the hype around the most futuristic corner of longevity.

Dr. Piraye Beim: “Why Women’s Health Is Central to Longevity”

Women may live longer but they spend more years in poor health. Dr. Piraye Beim, founder of Celmatix, reveals why ovarian aging is the hidden accelerant of female biological decline—and why extending ovarian healthspan could be the next breakthrough in longevity science. From inflammaging to how tracking AMH biomarkers could transform preventative care for women in their 30s and 40s, she brings cutting-edge reproductive science into the center of the longevity discourse.

Abby Miller Levy: “The Business of Aging Well”

The co-founder of Primetime Partners and a leading longevity investor breaks down the massive opportunity—and responsibility—facing business leaders in the age of longevity. From redefining retirement (now being reframed as a 30+ year life phase) to redesigning financial services and wellness products for older consumers, she shares a venture capitalist’s view on where this market is headed, and how brands must evolve to meet the needs of a longer-lived population.

Chip Conley: “Wisdom at Midlife and Beyond”

Midlife isn’t a crisis—it’s a calling. The New York Times best-selling author and Modern Elder Academy founder reframes aging as a powerful phase of reinvention, and explores how emotional resilience, community, and “life literacy” can become the true metrics of a long, meaningful life. With wit and wisdom, he challenges conventional career arcs and invites listeners to consider what a purposeful second (or third) act could look like.
