Health is talked about more than ever, yet what often gets lost is a clear, meaningful understanding of how we can truly elevate our lives. The Upgrade is a program that goes beyond surface-level wellness to connects credible science with the deeper questions of what it means to live well. Sometimes it’s hidden in daily habits, sometimes in culture, sometimes in the science no one’s talking about. Wherever it is, we bring it to light—so you can rise a little higher, every day.

I sit down with Michelle Manu, a Native Hawaiian martial artist and legal scholar, to explore what traditional martial arts teach us about living healthy into old age. We discuss the physical foundations of longevity, the role of metaphysical health in wellness, and how indigenous wisdom offers insights modern science is only beginning to understand. Whether you’re interested in martial arts, longevity research, or the intersection of ancient practice and contemporary health, this conversation offers a fresh perspective on what it means to age well.
