Research leader @ Mayo Clinic | Follow me for insights on habits, productivity, and self-actualization | On a mission to normalize health

70% of American adults are overweight or obese. 
40% of cancers are preventable. 
72% of adults report health impacts due to stress.

I've worked with 300+ cancer patients as a health and wellness coach at the Mayo Clinic. 
And I've noticed a few things during this time:

-No one wants to be unhealthy
-Medications and procedures can keep you alive
-But it's lifestyle change that will help you build resilient health

And there's an unfortunate misconception out there that health is difficult to build. 
That "exercise" = self-imposed suffering
That "healthy foods" = kale smoothies
That joint pain is normal. 

But if you've got a demanding professional life, you need to implement low-friction habits and routines to preserve your health. 90 minutes at the gym 5x/week is not an option. 

This is the stuff I help people with. 
Simple health that will last a lifetime. 
So you can back to  your mission. 

Over the course of 12 weeks, we’ll develop habits and routines that will help you lose the weight, dissolve the stress, and reclaim your health. 
Should we talk?
DM me. 

About me

I’m a Returned Peace Corps Volunteer (Zambia) and Mayo Clinic-certified health and wellness coach.

I’m the author of the twice-weekly email newsletter 66.1 (66point1.com), which merges science and common sense to help you live healthier, for longer.

Marcus Frick

Talked with a gentleman the other day. 96 years old. #1 Rotarian in his state 3 years running. Still works full-time selling insurance. He’s got heart disease, cancer, bad knees. Daughter says, “Dad, you’ve got to slow down or you’re going to die!” He says, “I've got to keep going or I’m going to die!” 

So far, he’s right. 
Doesn’t it make you wonder…

If retirement is overrated?
How many lives he's touched over the course of a 74 year career?
If longevity is correlated with how often you make other people smile?

Building healthy founders, people, and companies

Had a "New Year's Resolution" conversation today. 
Raised a few questions. 

If you're...

Overweight.
Stressed out.
Struggling to sleep.

And looking at the calendar, deciding what kind of resolution you want to make come the New Year.
Wondering if, before the New Year, the holidays are just going to make all these problems even worse...

Is there anything you could do today to set yourself up for success come January 1?
Does improving your life have to wait until the calendar reads "2026"?

Care to have a conversation? 
I'm crowdsourcing some wisdom gathering.
5 minute interview on 1-3 things you can do in the final 6 weeks of 2025 to make sure you hit the ground running in 2026. 
Send a DM and we'll find a time. 

Or maybe you'd prefer to share your thoughts in the comments?

Overdid it on Thanksgiving stuffing?

7 ways to lose 1 pound this week: 

1. Walk additional 7000 steps/day
2. Skip dessert every day for the next week
3. Don’t eat for 1 whole day (ask your doctor)
4. Don’t drink anything for 1 whole day (not recommended!)
5. Replace Coke with Olipop
6. Replace 2 beers after work with a walk
7. Turn every “touchpoint” into a walking meeting

Is there one in here that might work for you?
Or something that didn’t make the list that might be your ticket to 1 pound?

Doctor (or spouse?!) told you you’d do well to lose a pound this week?

Rules, rules, rules!
Yuck.

Sleep 8 hours/night. 

But why, then, are there nights when you sleep for 5 hours and feel great?
Or others when you sleep for 9 hours and feel like you got hit by a train?

Drink 3 Liters of water/day. 

But what if you’re not thirsty?
Why would you drink water if you’re not thirsty?
If you’re eating a whole foods diet, do you need to drink the same amount of water as if you were eating a diet full of processed foods?

Eat 2,000 calories per day. 

What if you’re a super athlete?
What if you have a sedentary job?
Spent the day traveling?
What foods should make up these 2,000 calories anyway?

Who makes these rules?
Are they working?

Talked to a CEO + founder client this afternoon. He called to say thanks. His people are losing weight, more productive, happier, less stressed. 

I reminded him that he’s the one who connected his people with their health guy. And he’s good at picking high-potential people. 

His sales guy was expecting to have a down quarter (“Q4 is always slow”). He’s on track to have his second-best month in the 5 years he’s been at the company. What happened?

“I’ve got more energy so I’ve been reaching out to prospects more.”
 
I asked the founder why he invested in this kind of support for his people. What sort of ROI was he hoping to see?

His answer, “Not really worried about ROI. Not everyone has access to this kind of thing and I figured it could help them.”

Can doing the right thing for your people really help your bottom line???

Client texted today to cancel this afternoon’s call. She’s sick, Thanksgiving is coming, the works. 

No sweat. Same day + time next week? 

Yep. 

I went to change the calendar invite immediately. 
Client had already sent a new invitation with updated day and time. 

What if we all operated like this client?
Wouldn’t the world be a better place?

A couple weeks back, a friend sent a piece about his friend who used AI as his health coach. Helped him with some technical stuff like suggesting he ask his doctor about a new medication because the current one was messing up his hormones. Smart.

Another friend told me he wouldn’t hire a health coach because all the information is available online. True. And fine, because he doesn’t need a health coach. 

So, what’s left? Is AI coming for everyone’s job? Are you going to ChatGPT your way to losing 50 pounds? Is knowing what you need to do enough?

Talking to a friend back in June. He’s in his early 70s, got a new hip a couple years ago. 

When it was time for a new hip, his doctor said hold on, not so fast, you’ve gotta lose some weight first. In August, his doctor said he’d schedule the surgery tentatively for February, on the condition that my friend had to be 20 lbs lighter by then. 

He’s a pretty focused guy, plus he was tired of not being able to do the stuff he wanted to, sick of the pain. Had lost the weight in the past, had a plan, was confident he could do it again. 

He got it done. Lost the 20 lbs in 10 weeks. Then, starting in mid-October, he called his doctor every day (focused, remember?).
“Any cancellations?” No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, yes. Got the new hip the day before Thanksgiving. Had a whole new life by February. 

But what if you’re not like my friend?
Don’t have a plan, haven’t lost the weight before?
But still need a new hip/knee/etc.?

Drinking coffee, reading 4,000 Weeks by Oliver Burkeman. There's some stuff in the epilogue about self-help. 

The question, "If telling someone what to do was enough, wouldn't we know it already?" came up. 

Reminded me of a friend who sent a DM a couple weeks ago. Said something like, "I know you charge for this stuff, but maybe you can share a few free tips with a friend? Please? I need to lose weight." 

4,000 weeks. This guy is in his early 30s. 30x52 = 1560 weeks gone, 40% of life is in the rearview. 

Doesn't it make you wonder?

Is another podcast episode, another free tip going to get you from where you are to where you want to be? 
How long has it been this way? 
How long are you going to tolerate it?

3 things I heard this week: 

-"I'm walking 12,000 steps/day."
-"My clothes aren't so tight anymore!"
-"My girlfriend told me she's proud of the progress I'm making."

You have the support you need to get where you want to go?
Going to lone wolf it? 
Got a plan?

Say you lose 10 pounds by 12/31/2025...who's the first person to notice?

Talked to a guy today:

He's lost weight before. That time around, he started 75 Hard and stopped eating at the same time. If it’s all about CICO, he was a model student.

But it sucked!
Energy was low, he was injured a few weeks in.
Made it 25% of the way to his weight loss goal.
3 months later he had gained it all back +20 lbs.

Doing it differently this time around.
More exercise, but not so extreme.
Eating plenty, and it's all real stuff.
Doesn’t count calories, macros, etc.
And? 

He’s down 10 pounds in the last 6 weeks. 
Shooting for 15 by Thanksgiving. 
Family telling him he’s got more energy. 

Can it really be simple, pain-free, maybe even fun?!?!

What's your biggest obstacle to losing weight?

Weak leaders hire followers.

Strong leaders hire people who can replace them.

Sharing great insights from Eric Partaker.

When I started out:

I thought leadership meant being the smartest person in the room.

It’s not.

Real leadership is about:

Creating space for people who challenge you.
Push you further.
And yes - sometimes outshine you.

That’s not a threat.

That’s how you grow.

When you surround yourself with sharper minds:

1. You see more clearly.

They spot what you miss and say what others won’t.

2. You make better calls.

New perspectives turn decent ideas into powerful ones.

3. You grow faster.

Iron sharpens iron and the right people sharpen you.

4. You innovate more.

Different thinkers break patterns and create progress.

5. You build trust.

Letting people challenge you shows you value truth over ego.

6. You expand your influence.

Empowered people create impact far beyond your reach.

7. You build a legacy.

Real leaders aren’t remembered for their titles:

But for the people they lifted along the way.

8. You attract top talent.

Great people want to work where:

Growth, freedom, and challenge are celebrated.

9. You create resilience.

When everyone thinks for themselves:

Your team can adapt to anything.

10. You buy time and freedom.

Strong people don’t just follow your vision:

They execute it without needing your constant hand.

Your job isn’t to shine brighter than your team.

It’s to light the stage so they can shine.

Because your legacy lives in them,

Not in your spotlight.

P.S. Do you hire people capable of outgrowing you?

♻️ Repost to help more leaders build teams that grow and thrive.

Most companies look at skills.

The best ones hire character.

Yes, skills are important,

But character is what makes the difference.

Sharing great insights from Mike Leber:

Talent can impress on paper.

Character shows up when things get hard.

It’s not about fancy titles or cool résumés.

It’s about drive, hunger, and heart.

The right leader sees beyond experience:

They spot potential, attitude, and grit.

Because experience can be built,

But mindset can’t be manufactured.

You can always teach what to do.

You can’t teach who they are.

That’s why the real difference,
Between a good hire and a great one,
Isn’t written in their CV - it’s in their character 👇

1. Attitude

They stay calm under pressure.

Problems don’t shake them - they solve them.

2. Curiosity

They ask “why” before “how.”

Always chasing better, never settling.

3. Integrity

Their word means something.

You can trust them when no one’s watching.

4. Resilience

They fall, learn, and rise stronger.

Every setback is fuel for the next win.

5. Humility

They listen first, speak second.

That’s how growth - real growth - happens.

6. Accountability

They own their actions.

No excuses, just solutions.

7. Empathy

Real connection drives collaboration.

They understand people, not just performance.

8. Initiative

They act before being asked.

They see what’s missing and step up.

9. Self-awareness

They know their impact.

Adjust. Learn. Improve. Repeat.

Skills can be taught.

Character can’t.

Don't forget to look at both.

P.S. What are you looking for when hiring?

♻️ Repost so your network can improve their hiring decisions.

You can replace a position,

But you can’t replace trust:

Sharing great insights from Mike Leber

Once loyalty walks out - it rarely comes back.

That’s the blind spot of many leaders.

They see people as headcount, not hearts.

They assume talent is easy to swap.

“Someone else will do the job.”

But trust isn’t a line item.

Loyalty doesn’t reappear once it’s lost.

By the time reality hits,

Their best people are already gone.

Here are 10 small choices that make people stay:

1. Acknowledge effort, not just results

Results are easy to measure.

Effort isn’t - but it’s what builds results.

When people feel unseen, they stop trying.

2. Stand up for your team

If rumors spread and you stay silent,

you lose credibility fast.

Defend your people publicly and privately:

It builds lasting trust.

3. Manage workload and stress

Burnout is not a personal failure:

It’s often poor leadership.

Check workloads, respect boundaries.

Make rest part of performance.

4. Support growth, even when it leads them elsewhere

If someone outgrows their role, help them rise.

Good leaders grow people - even if it means letting them go.

5. Treat them as people, not job titles

Learn their goals, challenges, and motivators.

People stay where they’re valued beyond what they deliver.

6. Handle feedback with empathy

Be direct, but stay kind.

Honesty with respect:

Creates improvement without resentment.

7. Provide growth opportunities

If employees can’t grow where they are,

They’ll look for growth somewhere else.

8. Involve them in decisions

Ownership builds commitment.

Ask for input and show that their ideas matter.

9. Celebrate progress and personal milestones

Recognize more than KPIs.

A quick message or small gesture,

Can make people feel seen and valued.

10. Regularly check in on their needs

Don’t assume satisfaction - ask.

People’s priorities change, and good leaders stay in tune.

Deadlines will be forgotten.

But how you made people feel will last.

Seen. Valued. Supported.

Be the reason they stay,

Not the reason they leave.

Lead in a way that earns trust.

P.S. Do you lead this way?

♻️ Share with your network so they lead better!

People forget titles.

They never forget who believed in them.

Most of us are where we are,

Because someone took a chance.

Not because our CV was perfect.
Not because we nailed every question.
But because someone saw something deeper.

They saw potential:

Hunger. Humility. Curiosity.

The qualities that never show up on paper.

And they gave us a shot.

In a world obsessed with:

“10+ years of experience,” prestige labels,

We forget something important:

Some of the best people you’ll ever hire just need one person to bet on them.

They may not have all the answers yet.

But they have the mindset that’s impossible to teach:

They grow fast because they’re hungry.
They show up with something to prove.
They own their mistakes.
They crave feedback.

The best leaders know this.

They don’t just hire skills.

They hire:

Character. Attitude. Effort.

Because they remember being overlooked.

Being unproven.

Wondering if anyone would give them a chance.

So they choose a different path.

They build people, not just "employees".

If someone once believed in you, you know exactly how it feels.

It’s not a job offer.
It’s a turning point.
A shift in your life trajectory.

And if you lead today,

You have the chance to pay that forward.

Look past the résumé.
Search for mindset, not just metrics.
See possibility where others see risk.

Because talent isn’t always found.
Sometimes it’s developed.
And sometimes all it takes is one yes.

One “I believe in you.”

One leader willing to bet on potential.

To the leaders who do that - thank you.

You’re not just hiring.

You’re changing lives.

P.S. Who believed in you before you believed in yourself?

♻️ Repost to inspire more leaders to bet on potential

Your manager can be your biggest risk,

Or your greatest upgrade.

I’ve seen many different people:

Those who drained every ounce of energy.

And leaders who made you believe in yourself again.

The difference?

One sees you as a tool.

The other sees you as a person.

We spend 40+ hours a week at work.

Your manager doesn’t just impact your results:

They shape your mindset, energy, and confidence.

The truth is:

A great manager can rebuild years of lost belief.

A bad one can destroy it.

10 ways great leaders protect and empower people:

1. Safety before pressure.

You can’t perform if you’re constantly defending yourself.

2. Defend when absent.

They protect your reputation when you’re not there.

3. Notice the small signs.

A simple “How are you?” can change everything.

4. Feedback that fuels.

You leave motivated, not broken.

5. Lead by balance.

They switch off and make it okay for you to do the same.

6. Celebrate progress.

They value growth, not just goals.

7. Believe louder than doubts.

Their confidence becomes your courage.

8. Communicate with clarity.

No guessing games. No confusion. Just trust.

9. Give ownership.

They let you take the wheel and grow through real responsibility.

10. Stay human.

They care before they manage. That’s the real difference.

Great leaders don’t just grow businesses.

They build confidence.
They make life better.
They grow people.

P.S. What kind of leader will people remember you as?

♻️ Share to inspire more great leaders!

Weak leaders fear smarter people.

Strong leaders hire them.

Too many leaders still fear people:

Who think faster, see deeper, or know more.

That fear kills growth.

Real leaders don’t compete with their team.

They build a team worth competing with.

Here’s what the best understand:

➟ If everyone thinks like you, your ceiling never moves.

➟ Smarter people aren’t a threat. They’re leverage.

➟ Challenge is fuel. It sharpens vision and drives progress.

Leadership isn’t about being the genius in the room.

It’s about creating a room full of geniuses.

And that takes humility.

Admitting you don’t have all the answers.
Welcoming people who do.

Letting brilliance - not ego - drive the mission.

When you hire people who outshine you:

Your impact multiplies.
Decisions get sharper.
Innovation explodes.
Blind spots shrink.

Leadership isn’t about being the brightest mind.

It’s about creating a place where the brightest minds thrive - together.

If you want to grow, stop fearing smarter people.

Start hiring them.

P.S. Do you choose challenge or comfort?
