Redefining what it means to live longer with purpose | Shark Tank investor and Entrepreneur | TEDx speaker

What’s the Point of a Long Life If It’s Not a Fulfilling One?

Most people chase longevity like it’s the ultimate goal. Longer life, better health, more years on the clock.

But what if living longer isn’t enough?

I’m Dr. Felix Bertram, a dermatologist turned entrepreneur, and I once discovered that biologically, I was already at retirement age.

That realisation forced me to rethink everything. Longevity isn’t just about adding years. It’s about adding meaning, purpose, and connection.

What I Share
- Growth and Development – How to continuously evolve, no matter your age
- Relationships – The key to a long life isn’t just health, it’s who you share it with
- Longevity with Purpose – Why living longer only matters if it makes life richer

Because success extends beyond one industry

I believe true longevity isn’t just about extending life. It’s about making every moment count.

If you’re ready to rethink what it means to grow, thrive, and live fully, let’s connect.

Your normal day is someone's dream.

Pause and appreciate it.

Life is full of twists and turns
that we all have to navigate.

But there's one thing that everyone has in common.

Everyone dreams.

We dream of:

→ More time.
→ More money.
→ More freedom.

And oftentimes, we're closer to those dreams than we think. 
Maybe we've achieved our dream and don't even realise it.

We're so caught up in the day-to-day,
that it can be hard to sit back
and remember what we have.

You're able to spend evenings with your loved ones.
You can buy yourself a treat on occasion.
You have the freedom to travel.

That might feel ordinary to you.

But it's exactly what someone else is dreaming of right now.

→ Someone's looking for their dream job.
→ Someone's missing their family.
→ Someone's trying to find time for themselves.

Not everyone has the options you do.

So let's try to feel more grateful.

You never know how quickly things could change.
And today, I'm sure there's something to cherish.

What's one thing you're grateful for today?

Felix Bertram

The people you're around shape who you become.

Choose your people wisely.

There will always be people who aren't good for you.

Somehow, they spread negativity wherever they go.

You mention something positive.
↳ They roll their eyes and change the subject.

You share a goal you're excited about.
↳ They shoot down your dreams instantly.

You come up with a new idea.
↳ They act like they thought of it first.

Every interaction leaves you feeling small.

If you spend enough time around people who doubt everything,
eventually, you'll start doubting yourself too. 

Instead, spend time around people
who reflect the person you want to be.

If you want to be more disciplined
↳ Be around people with good habits.

If you want to be successful
↳ Be around people who push your limits.

If you want to be inspired
↳ Be around people who are honest and kind.

Growth doesn't happen in isolation.

It happens when you're surrounded by the right energy.

You won't just become a better person,
You'll help others become better too. 

Who's someone that lifts you up when you're around them?

Tag them in the comments to let them know!

You have 7 seconds for a first impression.

Make them count. 

Thanks to Rohan Sheth for this reminder.

I've seen many pitches during my time on Shark Tank.
The first few seconds are always important.

It's the same for any interaction.

If you're selling, raising capital, or networking,
how you introduce yourself matters.

The worst thing to do is:

→ Ramble
→ Oversell
→ Repeat yourself endlessly

But if you master those first few seconds,
what follows runs smoothly.

Here's how to get it right:

1. Lead with proof
↳ Skip the title, share what you've done.
↳ The results speak for themselves.

2. Hit a pain point
↳ Speak to the problem they're trying to solve.
↳ Sell clarity, not confusion.

3. Use a 10-word story
↳ Boil down your journey.
↳ If they want more, they'll ask.

4. Body language
↳ Make eye contact and speak slowly.
↳ Confidence is felt before it's seen.

5. End with a question
↳ Make things about them, not you.
↳ You'll respond with more value.

6. Mirror their language
↳ Use the words they use for their industry.
↳ They'll trust you much more quickly.

7. Show what's next
↳ Hint towards the bigger mission.
↳ That's how they buy into it.

8. Show authority without bragging
↳ Mention one credibility marker.
↳ Let curiosity do the rest.

You don’t get a second chance to make a first impression.

So when the opportunity comes,
seize the moment.

Which one of these will you try first?

Most founders chase what they don't have.

The smart ones trade what they've got.

Everyone has access to three things:

→ Knowledge
→ Time
→ Money

It's rare to have all three at once.

Still, everyone wants more.

The smartest people know how to leverage what they have
to secure the third thing they need. 

That's how you create more freedom to focus on what matters.
Your health, your relationships and your next big goal.

If you want knowledge...
↳ Trade your time to study.
↳ Invest in mentors or access to the right rooms.

If you want time...
↳ Spend money to take tasks off your plate.
↳ Use knowledge to simplify your workflow.

If you want money...
↳ Use your time to learn high-value skills.
↳ Spend knowledge to build something great.

You already have two of these resources.

Don't stop yourself from gaining the third. 

Check your wallet.
Decide which currency you need most.
Then spend the other two wisely to get it.

Which currency are you focusing on right now?

The second you think "I've made it," be careful.

Don't fall into this trap.

When you reach a goal you've worked hard for.
There's a temptation to stagnate.

It happens more often than you think.

→ Leaders get complacent.
→ Creators can plateau.
→ Professionals stop growing.

Don't get me wrong.
It's important to celebrate your wins.

But you also need to remember:

Success isn't a finish line.

It's a checkpoint.

Chances are, you've sparked more dreams along the way.

So next time you hit a milestone, remember this:

1. Celebrate with those you love
↳ Let yourself feel proud.
↳ Don't rush past the moment.

2. Reflect on how it happened
↳ What did you learn?
↳ What would you do differently?

3. Collect your new dreams.
↳ Write them all in one place.
↳ Notice which one excites you the most.

4. Start planning
↳ Use the lessons from your win.
↳ Map out the first few steps.

5. Share your dream
↳ Tell someone you trust.
↳ Invite them to be part of it.

Growth is endless.

But you have to be hungry enough to keep moving.

It's time to go after what's next.

How do you like to celebrate after a win?

The beautiful thing about purpose:

No one can define it except you.

Some people find purpose in busy, high-profile lifestyles.

Others are happier living quieter lives.

And many are figuring out what works for them.

There's nothing wrong with taking your time
to discover what fulfils you.

It's normal to look around and be inspired by others.

But the trap you can fall into is comparison.

You start thinking about what your life should look like
instead of asking yourself what you actually want.

It's easy to believe your happiness
has to be what someone else has.

But purpose isn't a one-size-fits-all.

And it's not a competition.

Your job is to make sure your purpose is actually yours.

There are those who light up doing work most would overlook:

→ A shop assistant who brightens people's day.
→ A waiter who loves creating great experiences.
→ A nurse finding fulfilment in easing someone's pain.

That's purpose.

Being proud of what you do
and finding meaning in how you do it.

At Skinmed, I'm proud to see it within my team.
Everyone takes pride in serving, giving and making someone's day better.

In my eyes, that's the highest form of success.

What's something simple in your work that brings you joy?

The Only Way To Do Great Work Is To Love What You Do

Most people plan for success.

Very few plan for what really matters.

It's very easy to think about the future.
We plan and chase after it.

And often we put off what's important
thinking, we'll "get to it later."

But if you continue that way,
the important parts of life slowly fade.

Once they've been lost.

You can't get them back. 

You risk losing your:

→ Time
→ Trust
→ Words
→ Health
→ Energy
→ Moments
→ First Impressions

We think these things are guaranteed,
but they're not.

It's up to us to protect them
and use them well.

Here's where you can start:

Time
↳ Track where it actually goes and where it could be better spent.

Trust
↳ Keep your word, especially when it's hard.

Words
↳ You can lift people up or bring them hard. Choose the former.

Health
↳ Don't wait for a scare. Prevention is more powerful.

Energy
↳ Spend it on the things that fuel you, not drain you.

Moments
↳ Create moments with the people that matter most.

First Impressions
↳ They shape who you are. Put your best foot forward. 

No one's perfect.

But too many people let years go by
without facing this.

You don't need to change everything at once,
just give what's important to you the attention it deserves.

Which one of these will you focus on first?
