Four energizing days in Austin with our coaches, our team, and our incredible clients. 🤍

The theme of this quarter’s event was commitment—to our growth, to the work, and to one another. And we got to see that commitment come to life as we learned from our coaches, shared meals and conversations, and spent time together as a community.

This is what FPC is all about. So grateful for the people who show up for themselves and each other, and who make this community what it is.

Hay días que no se olvidan.
No porque todo salga perfecto, sino porque algo en el aire cambia. Porque las conversaciones van más profundo de lo esperado. Porque te sientas junto a alguien que no conocías y cuando te levantas, algo en ti se movió.

Cuerpos que aprenden, que sienten, que se reconectan con lo que la medicina a veces olvida nombrar.

Gracias por cada momento compartido. 🤍

Esta semana tuve el gran honor de participar en @ammev_org - 6o Congreso de la Asociación Mexicana de Medicina de Estilo de Vida. Estoy profundamente agradecido con los organizadores, por su visión y liderazgo @v_saadia y su increíble pasión y empuje @dra.elisasacal y todo el maravilloso equipo con quien han construido esto. Me llevo muchísimo mas de lo que pudiera aportar. Compartí con personas bellísimas y tuvimos conversaciones trascendentes, en un entorno de aprendizaje, cooperación y apertura que no se logra ver en otros congresos médicos. Si eres médico te invito a sumarte y seguir a la Asociación y verás que contarás con recursos valiosísimos para poderle dar mas humanidad, calidez, respeto y opciones terapéuticas a tu paciente. 🫶🙏

Tratando de encontrar las palabras dentro de tanto ruido, y con la experiencia aún fresca, me encuentro en un lugar que nunca imaginé: Xochitepec, Morelos.

¿Cómo terminé aquí?

Podría decir que todo lo que hacemos en la vida nos lleva a ciertos momentos, y que esos momentos me trajeron hasta aquí.

Mi principal objetivo durante este fin de semana era convivir, platicar y conocer a otras personas, más que buscar un conocimiento específico.

Bueno… también tenía que hacer mi examen de certificación. Pero quienes me conocen saben que lo primero representa un reto importante para mí.

Cuando llegué al congreso y me dieron mi gafete, podíamos elegir algunos “pins”.

Instintivamente elegí uno que decía “introvertido”, porque así suelo sentirme: me gusta estar en lo mío, hacer mis cosas; soy el típico que se pone los audífonos y desconecta del mundo.

Pero también lo elegí como un recordatorio: abrirme, conectar y salir un poco de mí mismo.

La Medicina del Estilo de Vida es algo que, hasta hace relativamente poco, ni siquiera sabía que existía.

Encontrarla fue, en muchos sentidos, un hallazgo serendípico.

Siempre he sido apasionado de la medicina, pero durante mucho tiempo batallé con una de sus incongruencias: intentar acompañar a nuestros pacientes hacia cambios desde una posición de autoridad, mientras nosotros mismos muchas veces dormimos poco, hacemos poco ejercicio o comemos mal.

Todo esto, además, sobre la escasa formación que recibimos en temas como ejercicio, nutrición y salud mental.

Por eso, encontrarme aquí, rodeado de profesionales de distintas áreas de la salud —médicos, nutriólogos, psicólogos, coaches de salud y muchos más— que comparten una visión centrada en la persona, ha sido muy especial.

Una forma distinta de entender nuestra labor: dejar de colocarnos por encima del paciente y reconocer que él es el experto en su propia vida.

Nuestro papel no es decirle cómo vivirla, sino acompañarlo y utilizar nuestro conocimiento para ayudarlo a encontrar el camino que mejor funcione, como un equipo.

Este congreso fue una gran salida de mi zona de confort.

Durante las últimas semanas me encontré buscando razones para no asistir, pero hoy me alegr

QSX 2026 ✨

For three days, practitioners, innovators, researchers, and thought leaders came together to explore the future of health.

From hormones and detoxification to longevity, cognition, metabolic health, emerging technologies, and the evolution of integrative care, the conversations were bold, inspiring, and thought-provoking.

Thank you to everyone who shared their expertise, challenged assumptions, and helped create an unforgettable experience.

The future isn’t something we wait for. It’s something we build together.

See you in 2027.

@yestolifecharity conference:. The theme: Our Return to Our True Nature.
 It’s taken a few days to process the conference on Integrative Oncology; remarkable for its absence of talk of the usual pillars: diet, exercise, sleep, supplements, environment, toxins.

@drsamwatts opened with a sharp observation: we fixate on the protocol and forget the patient. His question hung in the air all day: How can a body heal when the person inside has lost their reason to? I’ve been thinking about that since Saturday, because it lands as a challenge to how I practise.

@davidrhamiltonphd on kindness as physiology. Measurable effects on blood pressure, immune function, the brain, the pace of ageing, and how contagious this all is, which is the part I hadn’t considered.

@drannaforbes on the integrative doctor as a bridge. Between conventional and natural medicine, certainly, but also between the physical body and the emotional and spiritual currents that unsettle it and that can settle it again.

@leopruimboom framed longevity as an achievement, not an entitlement—evolution prioritised reproduction over lifespan. His key insight: the brain regions for spirituality, emotional balance and human connection are also the most vulnerable to modern chemical exposure. We are degrading the very networks this conference set out to honour.

@adsvitality on circadian alignment—the session closest to my work. He detailed how immune surveillance, DNA repair, hormones, and gut function all run on 24-hour cycles. Disrupt them with erratic sleep, artificial light, irregular meals, or the shock of diagnosis, and the dysfunction echoes system-wide. His core advice: set a fixed wake time, protect your melatonin window, and feed the gut microbes that regulate inflammation.

My friend @sophietrewbreath on breath, with a guided practice over lunch. A practical and free tool.

@mrjamesmaskell on network sufficiency. His argument: chronic disease is a failure of connection, biological, emotional and social. Healing works by restoring connection at every level, and understanding how we lost this.

Happy Birthday to one of my favorite Brit’s, entrepreneurs, innovators, and nutrition nerds! 🇬🇧

For more than a decade, we’ve done an amazing amount of professional life together- conferences (more than we would want to admit) big ideas, crazy projects, and long conversations about changing healthcare.

But some of the best memories had absolutely nothing to do with work… dominating the pickleball courts, riding scooters through some random city at night after a long day, or catching a sporting event/ concert…always finding ways to turn a business trip into an adventure.

You’re a true entrepreneur - relentlessly curious, innovative, passionate, and genuinely committed to making healthcare better. But what I appreciate most is that through all the business, you’ve remained a friend and someone who knows how to have a lot of fun along the way.

Here’s to another year of big ideas, new adventures, pickleball domination, hopefully slightly fewer conferences, and a few more days in the Wrigley Field sun.

Happy Birthday, my friend! Wishing you all the best and looking forward to whatever crazy adventure comes next. Maybe even a cricket match! #birthday

What a weekend at the Yes to Life Conference!
Kicking off with the YTL awards celebrating the people, practitioners and organisations making an impact in integrative oncology (more to come…) and moving straight into our sell out conference - Reclaiming your true nature.

This year’s event was groundbreaking on so many levels. Not least for embracing a theme that is too often neglected in cancer care - the power of belief.

Our thanks start with @drsamwatts who partnered with us and took the courageous direction to focus on the role of positive mindset and belief in exceptional survivorship. His unwavering leadership in this area of non physical factors in cancer survivorship inspires and brings hope and YTL is honoured to have his support.

We would like to thank each of our exceptional speakers who each brought their expertise and empathy to the stage - sharing their professional and lived experiences of inner natures impact on healing.

@davidrhamiltonphd on ‘kindfulness’ and ‘mindfulness’
@drannaforbes on bridging the gap between traditional and integrative cancer care.
@adsvitality1 on circadian biology and the power of light and @sophietrewbreath on the power of breath.
@leopruimboom on environmental determinants of health and healing
@mrjamesmaskell on a journey that our words cannot adequately describe (watch the replay!)
And an emotional return by @drnashawinters on finding your voice and becoming the author of your biology.

This year we welcomed over 350 beneficiaries - a record breaking attendance. Our heartfelt thanks to you all. Yes to Life exists for you, to support you, to champion integrative cancer care, and to advocate for change.

Specials thanks to guests @petecohen_ and @juliabradbury for asking the hard hitting questions. Where do we take this movement next?
How can we better advocate for integrative cancer services in standard of care?
What will drive change?

Questions that will shape the work we do and our plans for the coming year. As Dr Sam Watts said “impossible is nothing”.

Lastly…. what an aspirational close with our 4Men patient advocate Q&A. Four men, four cancers, four exceptional stories of surviv

Functional medicine is growing, but independent providers may be facing a new kind of competition.

Patients are no longer choosing only between conventional care and cash-pay functional medicine. They are also seeing more convenient platforms, insurance-based options, AI-powered tools, and recognizable health brands entering the space.

Bret speaks with James Maskell about what this shift means for doctors who want to stay relevant, sustainable, and effective in the next era of care.

The big takeaway? Clinical skill matters, but going it alone may no longer be enough.

For functional medicine practitioners, the future may depend on stronger networks, shared systems, better patient acquisition, and communities that help doctors do more than survive.
