Hi Phoenix Friends,

I recently joined Dr. Heather Sandison, the NYT bestselling author of “Reversing Alzheimer’s, on the ThinkWell AgeWell podcast to share my journey of discovering I carry APOE4/4…and how that moment of fear became the spark for rebuilding my health from the ground up.

In the episode, I talk about:

• Discovering that genetic risk can be empowering when you take actionable steps.

• Understanding the simple, foundational habits that changed my metabolic, physical, and cognitive health.

• Gaining clarity through personalized prevention instead of fear-based avoidance.

We explored how my family history shaped my mindset, and how I’ve used that awareness to build a lifestyle rooted in prevention, purpose, and neuroplasticity.
From fasting and functional testing to mindset shifts and community, I walked through the tools that have helped me turn fear into fuel.
We also talked about the emotional side of genetic risk—how to hold both awareness and agency without falling into anxiety.
I want others to know that your genes are not your destiny—and resilience is something we can all cultivate, one choice at a time.

Big thanks for one of our Phoenix Member, Cathy to have made the introduction.
If you also know folks in the podcast space, please make the introduction.
I believe we need to spread awareness about APOE4, not as a curse, but as a huge catalyst for positive change.

Cheers,

Kevin
