Episode 13 In this episode of The Calm Cockpit, we’re joined by Lashae Bacon; former U.S. Army pilot, certified personal trainer, and founder of Mile High Health Club, a wellness company designed specifically for pilots. Lashae shares powerful insights into how fitness, nutrition, and sleep work together to support peak performance, long-term health, and flight safety.
We dive into the unique challenges pilots face—irregular schedules, long hours sitting, and environmental stressors—and how small, consistent changes can lead to big results. From smart snack tips to movement hacks between flights, this episode is packed with practical advice to help you feel more energized, focused, and resilient.
Whether you're just starting your wellness journey or looking to fine-tune your routine, this conversation will leave you inspired and ready to take action—both in the cockpit and beyond.
