Listen "Lessons In Healthcare And Life, with Todd Whitthorne"
Episode Synopsis
"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/
