Dr. Vivek Murthy — Former Surgeon General on Combatting
COVID-19, Loneliness, and More | Brought to you by
NutriBullet and Trello.
“All of us, regardless of what stage of life we’re at,
we’ve got three basic needs: we all want to know that we matter,
we want to be seen for who we are, and we want to know that we’re
loved.” — Dr. Vivek Murthy
Dr. Vivek H.
Murthy (@vivek_murthy, vivekmurthy.com) served
as the 19th Surgeon General of the United States between
2014-2017. As the Vice Admiral of the US Public Health Service
Commissioned Corps, he commanded a uniformed service of 6,600
public health officers globally. During his tenure, Dr. Murthy
launched the TurnTheTide campaign, catalyzing a movement among
health professionals to address the nation’s opioid crisis. He
also issued the first Surgeon General’s Report on Alcohol, Drugs,
and Health, calling for expanded access to prevention and
treatment and for recognizing addiction as a chronic illness, not
a character flaw.
In 2017, Dr. Murthy focused his attention on chronic stress and
loneliness as prevalent problems that have profound implications
for health, productivity, and happiness. He has co-founded a
number of organizations: VISIONS, an HIV/AIDS education program
in India; Swasthya, a community health partnership in rural India
training women as health providers and educators; software
company TrialNetworks; and the grassroots physicians
organization Doctors for America.
Since leaving government service, Dr. Murthy has continued to
focus on loneliness and social connection. His
book Together: the Healing Power of
Human Connection in a Sometimes Lonely World will
be published this spring by Harper Collins.

This episode is brought to you
by NutriBullet. NutriBullet
is the affordable, easy-to-use, easy-to-clean blender that was
first recommended to me by entrepreneur Noah Kagan when I
interviewed him for the podcast. Its signature blending process
transforms high-fiber veggies, nuts, seeds, and fruits into
silky, nutrient-dense smoothies (or protein shakes, savory soups,
and dips) that are easy to digest and absorb.
Now, the engineers at NutriBullet have
created an incredibly convenient upgrade named the NutriBullet
Blender Combo. This device is their most versatile yet, allowing
you to effortlessly switch between single-serve and full-size
blending—everything you know and love about the classic device,
plus all the performance and capacity you expect from a full-size
blender. Don’t settle for blenders that leave your smoothies
filled with chunks. Get the NutriBullet Blender Combo, and
introduce your veggies and fruits to 1,200 watts. It easily gets
the job done. And for you, my dear listeners,
NutriBullet is offering 20% off of all products on its website.
