23 and a Half Hours: Exercise is Medicine
Inspired by Dr. Mike Evans' viral health video
There’s a video I often recommend to clients, friends, and even family.
It’s called “23 and 1/2 Hours” by Dr. Mike Evans—a simple, visually engaging presentation that answers one key question:
What’s the single best thing you can do for your health?
His answer might surprise you. It’s not a cleanse, a supplement, or a 6-week challenge. It’s not something you need to spend hundreds of dollars on.
It’s walking.
Just 30 minutes of movement a day—walking, stretching, biking, anything - can significantly lower your risk for chronic diseases, improve your mental health, and extend your life.
It’s a reminder that small daily choices can have a significant long-term impact.
But as I watched it again recently, it hit me differently. Not just as someone who cares about health, but as someone who helps people protect their families.
Because here's what I believe:
When we love someone, we don’t just say, “I’d die for you.”
We live for them. We take care of ourselves.
We show up, every day, in every way we can.
Going for that walk, even on the hard days.
Choosing food that fuels you instead of fills you.
Making time for movement, rest, checkups, and stress management.
Those aren’t just wellness trends. They’re commitments. They’re actions.
But of course, life is unpredictable. And that’s where life insurance comes in.
Just like that 30-minute walk protects your body, life insurance protects your family’s financial well-being.
It's not just about death - it's about security. It’s about giving your loved ones the stability to stay in their home, keep their lifestyle, pay for school, and recover emotionally without the added burden of financial stress.
And here’s the truth: the best time to secure life insurance is before life throws you a curveball.
When you're healthy, coverage is more affordable and easier to qualify for. So if you’re already making the effort to care for your body and mind, this is the next natural step.
Because financial wellness is part of overall wellness.
The beauty of “23 and 1/2 Hours” is that it doesn’t ask you to overhaul your life.
Just 30 minutes. Just a walk. Just one change you can stick to.
And that’s where I encourage you to start - not only with your physical health, but with your financial plan, too.
A simple conversation about life insurance might be the most impactful 30-minute decision you make this year.
Because one protects your future,
The other protects theirs.
I’m here to make the process simple, honest, and personalized. You don’t have to do everything in one day - just take that first step.
