I am a licensed geropsychologist with more than 30 years of professional experience focused on psychologically healthy aging. My work addresses how mindset, lifestyle, mental health, and social connection influence longevity, brain health, and quality of life in later years.

I am the founder of Living to 100, an education and media platform dedicated to reframing aging as a stage of continued growth, meaning, and contribution. I host the long-running Living to 100 Club podcast, where I interview researchers, clinicians, and innovators in aging, health, and longevity, translating evidence-based insights into accessible, real-world guidance.

Longevity Expert | Founder of KinetikChain | Author I help high-performers engineer a "100-Year Body."

I am a physician specializing in longevity medicine, regenerative therapies, and functional health optimization. My work focuses on understanding how the body performs and adapts over time — not treating isolated symptoms, but identifying what drives them. Every protocol I design begins with clinical data: biomarkers, metabolic patterns, hormonal baselines, and long-term health objectives. From there, I build a structured, personalized strategy that evolves as the body responds. My training includes international certifications in lifestyle medicine — I am certified by the American Board of Lifestyle Medicine (ABLM) — as well as regenerative medicine, IV nutrition therapy, and cellular therapy. At Healthi Life, I personally design and supervise every longevity program. The goal is never short-term improvement. It is sustainable biological performance — measured, monitored, and refined over time. I believe medicine should follow the person, not the other way around. That is what we built this house for.

Franck-Olivier Chabbat is a French State-Certified Audioprothésiste (DE) who has fitted hearing aids on more than 3,000 patients — most of them seniors aged 65 to 95 — across 28 years of clinical practice at Amplifon, Audika, 18 Afflelou hearing centers, and as clinical director at Auzen.com. "The technology is the easy part. The hard part is the silence that grows between people before anyone names it. Patients almost never come on their own — their daughter brings them in after they stop attending grandkids' birthdays." In 2025, he stopped retail practice to launch LeGuideAuditif.fr, an independent guide written for seniors who don't want to wait until 80 — and for adult children who finally noticed their parent has been faking it for years. The site demystifies hearing tests, hearing aids, the hearing-loss-and-dementia connection (Lancet Commission 2024 confirmed it as the largest modifiable midlife risk factor), and France's "100% Santé" reform — which made basic hearing aids free at point of sale, a case study that fascinates international audiences. He is also the author of the 2026 "French Hearing Care Deserts" study, the first interactive map cross-referencing France's 7,146 registered audioprothésistes with INSEE population data. Key finding: a senior in Haute-Marne (4.19 audiologists per 100,000 residents) has four times less access to hearing care than a senior in Paris (17.13 per 100,000). Available for plain-language commentary on: senior hearing loss, hearing-aid choices (OTC vs prescription), the dementia/fall-risk connection, France's 100% Santé reform, healthcare access and "care deserts," and daily-life adaptations for families.
