Dear reader,
I’m excited to share a recent conversation that delves into the heart of why I practice medicine the way I do. I was a guest on the “Breakfast Leadership” podcast with Michael Levitt, where we discussed my journey from emergency medicine to performance health optimization.
The discussion covers topics I know many of you are passionate about:
- The real, often silent, causes of burnout, even when you love what you do.
- Why our approach to health must shift as we age, focusing on optimization rather than just treating disease.
- The critical role of metabolic health, food as fuel, and gut health in achieving stable energy, sharp focus, and long-term resilience.
- Practical, sustainable strategies for busy people to invest in their health now for a vibrant future.
This conversation is a great encapsulation of the philosophy behind our practice: that feeling your best is the foundation for doing your best, in every aspect of life.
