Tro and Rosette talk about how they met, how they started gaining weight and declining in metabolic health, and how they reversed the process. They discussed the importance of exercise for mood and mental health, the process of emotionally maturing with age, knowing how to stand up for what is right wisely and effectively, understanding how interests impact and direct medicine, learning to balance work and family, the challenges of starting and running a business, taking a step back and thinking about what ultimately matters in life, how diet effects mental health and mood, and teaching your kids to think critically for themselves.

Life's Best Medicine according to Tro: "I've been working so hard and I think, 'what is the purpose of all this?' And it's relationships. How many lives have we positively affected? Whether it's being friends with somebody, being a father, a husband; how many lives did we positively affect. Also exercise! If you take exercise away I become a terrible person."

Life's Best Medicine according to Rosette: "My kids give me a lot of strength. Just watching them and being able to be present for them is amazing. They give me a source of strength that I didn't even know I had sometimes."
