Show Notes
Korean culture is having a major moment—from skincare to K-pop to groundbreaking longevity research. By 2030, Korea is projected to have the highest life expectancy in the world. So what’s their secret? Award-winning eco-entrepreneur and Harvard Business School grad Michelle Jungmin Bang joins me to talk about her book Sun & Ssukgat: The Korean Art of Self-Care, Wellness, and Longevity. We dive into ancient Korean wellness wisdom, the power of food as medicine, the concept of a longevity pantry, and self-care rituals that go far beyond skincare. From zero-waste cooking to forest bathing to the deeply rooted cultural connection known as Jeong, Michelle shares how these practices have transformed her view on aging—and how we can incorporate them into our lives.
