Summary

This week, I’m joined by Simon Hill—nutritionist, physiotherapist, best-selling author, and host of The Proof podcast—for a rich conversation on what it truly means to live a long, vibrant, and intentional life.

Simon has dedicated his career to breaking down complex nutritional science into accessible, actionable wisdom. After witnessing his father suffer a heart attack at 41, he shifted from physiotherapy to earning a Master’s in Human Nutrition—and has since become a trusted voice in the global wellness space. His book The Proof Is in the Plants topped the charts, and his podcast has reached millions with evidence-based insights on diet, movement, longevity, and mental well-being.

In this episode, we talk about the power of plant-rich eating (and why it doesn’t have to be all-or-nothing), how to optimize your health without fear or restriction, and the markers that really matter when it comes to living well. We also touch on the myths that get in the way of sustainable wellness—and what he wishes more people knew about protein, supplements, and lifestyle medicine.

Whether you're deep in your wellness journey or just beginning to ask deeper questions about your health, Simon offers grounded, science-backed tools that will help you cut through the noise and make informed choices that serve your future self.
