In this powerful and wide-ranging conversation, Darin sits down with Dr. Anthony Youn, known to millions as America’s Holistic Plastic Surgeon, to unpack the real foundations of beauty, health, and longevity.

From the broken healthcare system and insurance handcuffs to the deep connection between gut health, skin, and self-esteem, Dr. Youn shares why surgery should always be the last step, not the first. This episode challenges everything we’ve been taught about aesthetics, medicine, and what it truly means to age well.
