Discover Your Mental Age

Welcome back to the new and improved Health, Tech & Wellness Newsletter.

It's been a little while since you've seen one of these, and a lot has changed. The podcast has grown, Living95 has evolved, and I've learned a lot along the way.

Because of that, I wanted this newsletter to evolve too.

Going forward, you'll still get highlights from our latest episodes, but you'll also find more insights, practical takeaways, behind-the-scenes updates, and real conversations designed to help you live a healthier, happier, and more balanced life.

Thanks for being part of the journey. Now let's dive into this week's episode.

Welcome! Today, we're diving into an insightful exploration of self-awareness with Crystal Nevedale and John Adams from the Health Tech and Wellness Podcast.

Imagine a day when you're completely free no responsibilities, no kids, and even meals delivered to your door. What would you do? This intriguing question was just the start of a mental age discovery journey that Crystal and John embarked on in their latest episode.

The Mental Age Quiz

John stumbled upon a set of 15 questions designed to reveal not your chronological age, but your mental age. "It's not about how old you are," John explains, "but how you react to things." Together, they go through questions like:

• You have a completely free day off. Do you:

  • A: Stay in and recharge

  • B: Get something productive done

  • C: Go out and do something spontaneous

  • D: Do nothing and scroll through your phone

Crystal leaned towards spontaneity, choosing C, "If I had just one day off, I'd opt for adventure," she shared. John, on the other hand, found himself torn between productivity and relaxation, opting for B.

Reaction to Life's Challenges

Another thought-provoking question asked about one's instinctive response to something going wrong. Crystal's growth journey resonated here. "Previously, I would ask, 'Why is this happening to me?' But now, I'm more about 'What can I learn from this?'" she reflected, choosing C.

Observing Others' Success

How do you feel when you see someone doing better than you? This question revealed some interesting self-awareness. John admits to a mix of motivation and happiness for others, while Crystal emphasizes the joy in others' success, acknowledging that different paths don't diminish one's own journey.

Final Thoughts

The episode is a gentle reminder that self-discovery isn't about right or wrong answers. It's about honest introspection and learning to understand oneself better. "Write these down," John suggests, "You're going to realize something at the end of this."
