Welcome to your Friday edition of The Exercise Doc! | Happy Friday, friends 👋 | I'm really glad you're here today. Fridays always feel like a good time to pause, take a breath, and reflect—and this week's newsletter fits that mood perfectly. | Inside today's edition, you'll find part three of our retirement series: purpose after retirement. For many people, this is the hardest and most important piece. When the schedule loosens and the job title fades, the big question becomes: What gets me out of bed now? We'll talk about why purpose matters so much for health, happiness, and longevity—and how to start shaping it on your own terms. | You'll also find a clear, balanced look at hormone replacement therapy. This topic brings up a lot of strong opinions and confusion, so the goal here is simple: help you understand the real benefits, the real risks, and who it may (or may not) make sense for, without the hype or fear. | And of course, there are tidbits—those small but useful ideas you can actually use in real life. Think of them as quick wins for your brain and body before the weekend kicks off. | If you've been enjoying the newsletter, I have one small favor to ask. Help this little family grow 🌱. If you know a friend, family member, or coworker who would enjoy practical, no-nonsense health and life guidance, please invite them to subscribe. Sharing it is the biggest compliment you can give, and it helps keep this community growing with thoughtful, curious people like you. | Thanks again for being here and for spending part of your Friday with me. I hope something in today's issue makes you think, smile, or see the next chapter of life a little more clearly. | Wishing you a healthy, meaningful weekend ahead. | Always | Doc Mike |

| | Purpose After Retirement | One of the biggest myths about retirement is that purpose disappears when work ends. In truth, purpose simply changes. | Purpose does not mean pressure. It means having a reason to care about how you spend your days. |
