"There's a big difference for me in living and being alive. There's a difference between breathing and truly experiencing life." - Todd WhitthorneMy guest this week Todd Whitthorne joined me for a conversation that goes far beyond the balance sheet to explore the true meaning of well-being. We discuss why a leader's personal health is the foundational, non-negotiable asset for their professional success.Todd breaks down the crucial role leaders play in building trust and creating a "culture of health" that yields a real financial, clinical, and cultural ROI. We explore the five pillars of well-being (fitness, nutrition, sleep, stress, and prevention), the difference between "lifespan" and "healthspan," and why investing in yourself is the least selfish thing a leader can do.The episode concludes with the incredible true story of Todd's 70-year-old friend who survived being hit and run over by a drunk driver, which is a powerful testament to how a lifelong commitment to fitness creates true resilience. I hope you'll tune in for this inspirational conversation!Chapters:(00:00:00) Lessons in Health & Leadership (00:06:11) Why Trust is a Leader's Most Important Asset (00:14:14) The Difference Between Lifespan and Healthspan (00:17:06) Why Investing in Yourself Isn't Selfish (00:48:59) The Pursuit of True Happiness (01:05:49) The 70-Year-Old Who Survived And Thrived After a Hit-and-RunKey Links for Social:@SelfFunded on YouTube for video versions of the podcast and much more - https://www.youtube.com/@SelfFundedListen/watch on Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/1TjmrMrkIj0qSmlwAIevKA?si=068a389925474f02Listen on Apple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/self-funded-with-spencer/id1566182286Follow Spencer on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/spencer-smith-self-funded/Follow Spencer on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/selffundedwithspencer/

Send us a textWe all know movement is good for us. But can the right kind of exercise actually slow the aging process itself?In this episode, Dr. Kevin White talks with Benjamin Miller, Ph.D., professor of aging research at OMRF and past president of the American Aging Association, about what really happens to our muscles and mitochondria as we age, and how his new NIH-funded clinical trial is working to answer one of the most important questions in longevity science: why do some people respond to exercise better than others?"Every drug we study is just trying to be as good as exercise — and exercise still wins."Dr. Miller explains the biology of aging in plain language, from protein damage to energy production, and shares why exercise still outperforms any “miracle drug” on the market. He also unpacks the design of his new trial, where people 60 and older will receive supervised training, advanced health testing, and wearables to measure everything from VO₂ max to sleep — all with the goal of predicting who benefits most from which type of exercise.In this episode:Why exercise is still the closest thing we have to a longevity drugHow mitochondria and protein health drive resilience as we ageWhat VO₂ max actually measures — and why it predicts lifespanThe role of genetics vs. lifestyle in how our bodies respond to trainingHow to get involved in Dr. Miller's NIH-backed exercise study at OMRFThis conversation is a reminder that slowing aging isn't about hacks or shortcuts — it's about moving, staying engaged, and using science to make every decade stronger than the last.

On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared is joined by Dr. Drew Kidder, VP of Education for CellCore, to unpack the fascinating science behind glutathione—often called the “master antioxidant.” They explore what glutathione is, how it supports healthy aging, mitochondrial function, and detoxification, and why modern lifestyles can leave us running low. Dr. Kidder explains the groundbreaking research on GlyNAC, a targeted blend of glycine and NAC shown to support optimal glutathione levels, and why CellCore's GlyNACtive formula goes a step further with co-factors like selenium, taurine, and bioactive carbon technology. You'll learn who may benefit most from glutathione support, how to recognize possible signs of deficiency, and practical ways to help your body produce more of this essential antioxidant naturally.Products:CellCore GlyNACtiveAdditional Information:#497: The Vital Role of Glutathione and How to Deliver it to Your Cells with Dr. Nayan PatelVisit the podcast website here: VitalityRadio.comYou can follow @vitalitynutritionbountiful and @vitalityradio on Instagram, or Vitality Radio and Vitality Nutrition on Facebook.

For many, integrative medicine has become an unattainable luxury, and healthy diet and lifestyle the prerogative of the privileged. Today's guest, Dr. Ramona Wallace, is attempting to change that. Trained conventionally as a DO, she undertook additional training and certification via the Institute for Functional Medicine to broaden her clinical skills. She practices primary care in an underserved community in Kalamazoo, Michigan, where she incorporates diet and lifestyle recommendations to address her patients' chronic conditions. Careful nutritional assessment has revealed that many of her patients, while overtly overweight, are decidedly malnourished. She has documented a wide range of deficiencies—of B vitamins, vitamins A, C, and D, critical minerals like zinc and magnesium, even full-blown scurvy. These are precisely the patients who are most likely to benefit from nutritional support. Discovering obstacles to compliance is a key element to effect their health transformations. Dr. Wallace believes that individualized care is the key to reversing long-standing health conditions. She mentors medical students in the first-of-its-kind Functional Medicine program at a medical school. She has also co-authored a landmark paper arguing for wellness self-care by doctors, to stave off burnout and to help them be better role models for patients.
