Closing in on 300 episodes of The Made To Thrive Show, it’s been an enriching and empowering  journey for me speaking to global expert and health heroes about their fields of expertise. So in honor of the 300 mark, I have put together a masterclass composed of the best insights for each of Made To Thrive’s 7 Pillars To Thriving: purpose, community, sleep, nutrition, movement, self-quantification, and environment. 

Thriving - Pillar by Pillar distills the best of those conversations into one powerful series. Each episode is curated to help you not just understand a specific pillar — but how to take action to live it.

This is Medicine 4.0 in action: preventative, proactive, personalized through data, and performance-enhancing. We believe sustainable health begins with awareness, and education is the foundation that transforms how we become aware of ourselves and the actions and habits that create our life. Only when we understand, can we identify both what’s holding us back as well as the thriving that's possible. 

At the root of the word doctor is Latin for teacher. Through the Pillar by Pillar series, I hope each episode becomes a lesson about how to see health and wellness differently, and to empower you to take action, one intentional, educated step at a time.


Community 

Humans are wired for connection, and the quality of your relationships has a profound impact on health and happiness. Being part of a supportive community lowers stress, improves immune function, and boosts overall life satisfaction. Community is the real secret to the Blue Zones! Investing in meaningful connections is not optional—it’s a biological necessity for thriving.

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
