Unraveling the Impact of Digital Advancements on Personal Health

  • Summary

  • Ever thought about how technology has intertwined itself into every aspect of your life, including your health? We, Tony and Sarah, ventured into this territory, sharing personal stories about how health tech has been a game-changer for us and those close to us. Tony's life as a diabetic has seen a transformation thanks to a nifty glucose monitor that syncs to his phone, while our friend's husband keeps a check on his wife's wellbeing remotely. But while we revel in these advancements, we also scrutinize the flip side of how technology can overstep its boundaries and become intrusive.

    On another note, the COVID-19 pandemic catapulted telemedicine to the forefront, birthing a new era of online healthcare. This change brought the doctor's office to our homes, giving rise to health coaching and more. As we unpack these changes, we also delve into the potential pitfalls of technology overuse, from declining mental and physical health to disrupted sleep and neglected social ties. Lastly, enjoy as we discuss the impact of technology on wealth and relationships and share our top three go-to health apps. Join us for a lively conversation on the dual nature of technology and how it can both aid and impair our health, wealth, and relationships.
