How to become an outdoor influencer with Author and outdoor adventurer Alex Schnee
How to become an outdoor influencer with Author and outdoor adventurer Alex Schnee In Her Words: Believe it or not, I didn't always love the outdoors. After growing up right by Glacier National Park and being forced to head up into the mountains with my family every weekend, I got out of the Treasure State as soon as I could. It wasn't until I had traveled the world (over 50 countries!) that I realized how essential it was to explore nature and how it could transform. Getting outside helped me battle an eating disorder by helping me realize it was more important to view my body as how it allowed me to hike amazing mountains rather than how it looked. I kayaked down the Amazon in Peru, hiked to the Everest Base Camp, and ran into a bear in my home park of Glacier. It also gave me the confidence to start my own blog and business so I could help others make the most of their time outdoors. In order to achieve that mission, I set out to provide information that people actually need to know when they visit national parks, set out on the trail, and how to follow Leave No Trace principles when they do. I also started a Facebook group where I could help those looking to escape the 9-5 find work that gets them out and that they could find more meaningful. If you have any questions about getting outside, don't hesitate to ask! I hope to make your time in the outdoors as worthwhile as it has been to me.

How to finally get the body and health you want with world champion cross-fit athlete Marcus Filly In His Words... Hi, I'm Marcus Filly, the founder of Functional Bodybuilding. After leaving medical school, I turned instead to health and fitness to help people more directly with training and nutrition in their day to day lives. Drawing on an extensive training background in soccer and my competitive Crossfit career, I owned an affiliate for years before changing methodologies to help athletes better succeed through individual coaching. After the 2016 CrossFit Games, I was burned out and broken, and about to become a first time father. Functional Bodybuilding was born out of a need to train more for longevity and sustainability – while still looking good and moving well.

How to live longer, healthier, look better and be happier with Chris Mirabile', Founder & CEO of NOVOS: the leading human longevity company
How to live longer, healthier, look better and be happier with Chris Mirabile', Founder & CEO of NOVOS: the leading human longevity company Chris Mirabile is Founder & CEO of Healthy Hand, and formerly a co-founder and CEO of the geosocial networking technology, Hotlist. Mirabile, a graduate of New York University Stern School of Business, was the youngest entrant to win the NYU Stern Business Plan Competition, from which Hotlist.com was launched. Chris Mirabile, Founder & CEO of NOVOS, is a serial entrepreneur and longevity expert. Chris' interest in health began when he was 12, and evolved into a passion after he was cured of a brain tumor when he was 16. Chris has researched and integrated longevity practices and interventions into his life for more than ten years, has achieved a biological age 13.6 years younger than his chronological age (37% reduction), and according to epigenetic tests like DunedInPACE, is aging 31% slower biologically than chronologically. In 2019 Chris founded NOVOS, the first nutraceutical company that targets the 10 biological causes of aging to increase longevity. NOVOS includes a scientific advisory board of six of the world's top biologists and geneticists who study aging from Harvard, MIT, The Salk Institute, and more. With NOVOS, Chris created much more than a supplement company—he built the first-of-its-kind consumer biotech platform that leverages the latest science to help people take control of their healthspans and lifespans. Prior to NOVOS, Chris co-founded multiple lucrative startups, including a commercial real estate tech platform whose first clients possessed more than a half trillion USD in assets.
