Episode Synopsis

“When 40 Changed Everything” is a personal reflection on the moment I realized my health had to take center stage. In this powerful episode, I share how a routine doctor’s visit in my early 40s — and the words of a culturally aware physician — opened my eyes to the importance of proactive care, especially for men of color. As friends around me started facing life-altering health events, we unknowingly created a brotherhood rooted in shared experience and accountability. This isn’t about fear. It’s about responsibility, community, and choosing to live better — together. If you’re entering your 40s, already there, or supporting someone who is, this conversation is for you.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/in-the-know-with-tony-reeves--5596987/support.
