What good is financial wealth if you don't have the health to enjoy it? That's the question at the center of my eye-opening conversation with Lisa Brooking, CEO of Healthcode Medical. With her background as a critical care nurse and elite marathon runner, Lisa is transforming how we think about health—from reactive “sick care” to proactive wellness optimization.Lisa shares how traditional medicine often waits for symptoms to appear before acting, missing the chance to prevent disease altogether. At Healthcode Medical, her team treats health as a vital asset class, applying strategies similar to wealth management: early detection, ongoing monitoring, and personalized planning.Their cutting-edge diagnostics—from advanced brain scans to specialized MRIs—create a deep baseline to catch issues early and optimize wellness. Lisa's most powerful insight? That poor health quietly restricts your freedom—limiting travel, activity, and quality of life. True luxury, she argues, isn't material—it's the vibrant health to fully enjoy your life.This philosophy mirrors my own approach to managing wealth: be proactive, informed, and intentional. Healthcode's efficient, boutique two-day assessment equips clients with actionable insights and continuous support for sustainable change.Want to invest in your greatest asset—your health? Connect with Lisa and her team at Healthcode to see how strategic health planning can transform your future.About Our GuestCEO of Healthcode Medical, Lisa is a dynamic and engaging health care leader with a proven track record in both the private and public sectors.
