The Retirement Trap: Why Health Discipline Starts Decades Earlier

Most people dream of retirement as a time of freedom—playing with grandchildren, enjoying hobbies, and living without limits. But for many, it becomes a cycle of doctor visits, endless medications, and declining mobility. Why? Because the habits we build (or ignore) in our 20s, 30s, 40s, and beyond shape our future health.

In this episode, we dive into why quick-fix fitness programs and diet trends fail, how society encourages short-term solutions over long-term well-being, and what we can do today to create a retirement we can actually enjoy. Plus, we explore the bigger picture—how a healthier society could ease the burden on healthcare systems like the NHS.

Start investing in your future self now—your retirement depends on it.
