ThatScienceCouple is at the intersection of Finance and Health. While it is important to make sure that you have a solid financial basis, it is equally important to take care of your physical and mental health along the way so that you can fully enjoy your FI life. Our blog covers topics of financial independence, lifestyle medicine, and minimalism; each of which have helped to shape our FI journey thus far. Financial Independence is about using a variety of different investment strategies to have a solid financial foundation. This can occur at any point in your life and allows you to enjoy more of your days doing what you are passionate about rather than what pays the most. Lifestyle medicine is about looking at the different aspects of your life that impact your health. This includes sleep, exercise, stress, social connection and nutrition. Health is complex and we often take for granted how much lifestyle factors that are within our control can make a difference. It is easier to maintain your health, than regain it. Minimalism is about examining out consumerist tendencies and overall making choices that help to simplify our lives. It is about freeing up space in your life so that you have more time to focus on those things that give you the most joy. Above all, being content with what we have and separating wants and needs can make for a more sustainable life. We know that there is a lot of confusion and misinformation on the internet these days, so we hope that we can be a reliable resource for our readers and be the go to "Science Couple" for the FI community.
