As a keynote speaker, Nick uses his experience as a member of the original Blue Zones expedition team to take his audience to these longer-lasting cultures. With a dynamic delivery, first-hand knowledge of these incredible regions and National Geographic photography, he inspires, educates and trains listeners on the themes of longevity, well-being and community health.
