Is it really more difficult to learn new things as we get older or do we just become stuck in our ways? While it’s easier to stay comfortable, this doesn’t mean we should stop ourselves from growing.

Dr. Orest Komarnyckyj enjoyed a prestigious career as a periodontal regenerative surgeon before moving to a new passion in June 2018. At age 70, Dr. Orest has taken on a new role as an interviewer, podcaster, and government-certified Old Guy who helps mentor men to get what they want.

He’s not afraid to tackle uncomfortable topics and very often brings his audience the unexpected. In today’s episode, you’ll hear from Dr. Orest on reclaiming your masculinity, your future, and your life.

We discussed:

  • The turning point when Dr. Orest realized it was time to leave his career
  • Why most people struggle to articulate what they want out of life
  • Why there’s a price to pay for being financially successful 
  • How Dr. Orest is optimizing his health to live for 50 more years
  • What happens when we get too comfortable with the status quo
