I was delighted to have the opportunity to interview Joseph A. Michelli about his book, All Business is Personal.
He described the brilliant concept and growth of One Medical, from origin to when they were purchased by Amazon for $4 billion.
Medical One started with the mission of designing the best possible technology-powered medical experience for patients “Easier, faster, more personal” was the underlying theme. They developed and expanded the concept that quickly available primary care could, and often did, resolve medical concerns and issues. When necessary, they would expedite screenings and medical specialist appointments.
Their services were subscription-based, a perfect fit for Amazon.
Staff and employee career development, coaching rather than management, use of proven techniques to build community and foster supportive relationships were always powered by the latest available technology.
It was “a best of all possible worlds” scenario - their growth and success are legendary. I learned so much about guiding growth and providing delightful customer experience in this book. Every chapter had valuable takeaways to improve on all levels, - business, life and personal.

I’m so grateful to Kirkus Reviews for calling Live the Health You Want: A Primer for the Care and Feeding of the Human Body “an appealing and wide-ranging survey of ways to reclaim your health.”
This book grew out of my belief that it is never too late to take a more proactive role in your own well-being.
So much of our health care system is built around reacting after something goes wrong. But what if we gave more attention to prevention: nutrition, movement, sleep, gut health, community, financial peace, spiritual grounding, and the daily choices that help us feel strong and vibrant at every age?
One of the greatest joys of writing this book has been sharing what has worked in my own life. I truly do love how good I feel, and my hope is that Live the Health You Want helps others feel empowered to reclaim their health, too.
If you’re ready to take a more proactive approach to your health, Live the Health You Want is available now. DM me “HEALTH” for a link to purchase.
What is the one prevention habit you are focusing on right now: sleep, nutrition, movement, or stress?

Muscle is the new longevity drug?
My heart sang when I heard Peter Diamandis affirm on his Moonshots podcast to Dr. David Sinclair, 'I think, and we can talk about this, that muscle mass (and exercise) still remain one of the prime longevity drugs out there.'
This resonates deeply with me, as I've experienced firsthand the profound, positive impact exercise has had on my own health. I’ll be 75 this October, and have no medical issues.
It's a simple truth: our bodies thrive on movement. Strength training builds essential muscle mass, cardio fortifies our heart and lungs, and together, they supercharge brain function. Longevity is not a mystery. Train your strength, support your heart, and make movement non-negotiable.
If you do one thing for your future self this week, let it be this: schedule your workouts like appointments you don’t cancel.

Waking up with the birds is about our biology. Morning light tells your brain, “Start the clock now” and sets your circadian rhythm, affecting your energy, cravings, mood, and even your sleep later tonight. Try this tomorrow: get 5-10 minutes outside soon after waking. No sunglasses. No phone. Just daylight. See how you feel and let me know if you like. I’d love for you to pick up my book “Live The Health You Want” for more strategies for optimal health and longevity.

Back-to-back Zoom meetings got you welded to your chair?
Try this: the 60-second Microburst Rule.
Every hour, hit a quick burst of movement so your body stops paying the “sitting tax.”
Today’s favorite: counter pushups (no floor, no gear, no excuses).
Why pushups punch above their weight:
Build real-world upper-body strength (chest, shoulders, triceps)
Reinforce a stronger core and better posture (your spine will thank you)
Support bone density and joint resilience
Do this between calls and you will feel different by the end of the day. Not “someday.” Today.
Make sure you’re properly hydrated and in good enough shape to do this. Hit 8-12 reps. Step your feet back to make it harder.
Want the full system? It’s all inside my book: Live The Health You Want: A Primer for the Care and Feeding of the Human Body.

I’ve loved life for 74 1/2 years so far, and I’ve learned one of the best ways to stay healthy is exercise and boxing moves are fun.
Boxing-style cardio has become one of my favorite ways to stay strong because it does not just work your body. It wakes you up.
When you throw punches with good form, you are using legs, hips, core, shoulders, and arms all at once. That means your body needs more oxygen, and your heart rate climbs fast. Add a few combos and some light footwork, and you have a simple version of interval training: short bursts, quick resets, repeat. Effective, efficient, and honestly… fun.
What I love most is how empowering it feels. You are not just “doing cardio.” You are building coordination, breathing control, and confidence with every round.
Try this and first, make sure you’re hydrated and fit enough.
* 30 seconds: jab-cross (fast, controlled)
* 20 seconds: boxer shuffle (stay light on your feet)
* 30 seconds: jab-cross-hook (keep your core tight)
* 20 seconds: rest and breathe
* Repeat 3-5 rounds
If you want more simple, sustainable fitness strategies to help you feel better and live stronger, get my book Live the Health You Want.

Hydration is not a “nice-to-have” - it drives energy, focus, digestion, temperature regulation, workout performance, and even how well your body recovers. When you’re even slightly dehydrated, headaches creep in, cravings spike, and fatigue hits harder than it should. If you want optimal health, hydration is one of the fastest wins you can control today.
A solid, widely used rule of thumb is 0.5 oz of water per pound of body weight per day (adjust up if you sweat a lot, train hard, or live in heat). That is the same as about 30-35 mL per kg for Australians using kilos. Start there, then let your thirst, urine color (pale straw), and activity level fine-tune the target.
For more practical, body-first guidance on optimal health, grab my book: Live the Health You Want, The Care and Feeding of the Human Body on my website or on Amazon or Audible.

At 74 1/2, I’m not chasing youth. I’m protecting my future.
These squats aren’t about looking strong. They’re about living strong: steady legs, confident balance, and the ability to do everyday life without fear.
Strength training has been one of the biggest contributors to the good health I’m grateful for today.
If this motivates you, save this and do 3 sets of “sit-to-stands” from a chair today. Don’t forget to make sure you’re hydrated and don’t overdo if not ready.
Then tell me: what age are you, and what movement are you working on?
Want the full plan behind what you’re seeing here? I put it all in my book: Live The Health You Want.

If strength training matters to you, warming up has to be part of the plan. It is the fastest way to go from stiff and shaky to strong and stable: 1 to 2 minutes to get warm, a few mobility moves for the joints you are about to load, a quick activation, then 2 to 4 lighter ramp-up sets before you go heavy. You will feel the difference immediately in how smooth and confident your reps are❤️
