Who we help

We help busy entrepreneurs, investors, and knowledge workers. This ranges from VC backed founders, to internet entrepreneurs, to capital allocators, to knowledge workers working at big tech or emerging startups.

Our customers are typically high achievers who have put their health on the back burner in the pursuit of wealth.

What we do

We help our clients master their health and longevity by acting as the 'Chief Risk Officer' for their health.

We've built a world class, evidence informed longevity risk assessment designed to help you gain full clarity of where you stand with your health, your personal risk factors, and what specific tools we can implement to hit your goals and mitigate your risks.

We aim to maximize healthspan, lifespan, happiness, and quality of life; and minimize time, complexity, costs, and stress.

Our Values

We love what we do. We work our asses off. We practice what we preach. And we never skip dessert.
If you're the best at what you do and you resonate with our values reach out to join our small, growing team.

  • 1. Speed matters - it's important to do things fast and to a high standard. Our small team moves fast.
  • 2. Will to win - you're an ambitious person that needs to work. Its almost like a medical condition. You love winning, hate losing, and are the type of person people are proud to associate with.
    3. Captain the titanic - you can't turn the titanic around on a dime, you need to do it miles away. We all have icebergs in the distance. We don't have a secret formula to living longer but we do act as a navigator to ensure our clients don't hit an iceberg prematurely.
  • 4. Inputs > outputs - if we show up everyday and do the things that matter, results will come over time. Enjoy the process, not the end result.
  • 5. Compound growth - we're learning machines. We know we can't start saving for retirement at 60, so why would we start thinking about our health only when we are in the final stages of it.
  • 6. Eat the complexity - whoever provides the most value to the customer wins. Complexity can be faced by us or our customer. We do the grunt work for our customers to make it easy for them to win.  

Our Story

Part 1. Sacrificing health in the pursuit of wealth

It all started back in 2017-2019 when I (Skylor) was relentlessly trying to build the next Silicon Valley unicorn while simultaneously running a consulting business to pay the bills. Nobody would hire 18 year old Skylor so I created Swanson Carlyle, a semi-fictitious management consulting firm that could garner clients. I was back and forth between Waterloo and SF trying to build my startup and fulfill all the client work. However, I was only one human that was unaware of labor leverage that had 3-4 consulting gigs on the go at one time; each required 4-8 hours of work per day. After a couple years of poor life hygiene (high stress, near zero exercise, a diet of convenience, and 3-4 hours of sleep per night), I was at the grocery store grabbing a quick 10pm dinner when I nearly dropped dead with a sudden heart attack. Thankfully a hospital was just down the street where they saved my life. As you can imagine, my first message upon waking was not to my family but to my clients.

Part 2. Trading wealth to reclaim my health

I spent the next few months in and out of the hospital trying to reclaim my health. Once my heart was stable, I spent the better part of the next year traveling around the world in the pursuit of health tactics that would give me the confidence that my heart wouldn't suddenly fail me again. I tried all the fad diets from keto to vegan to carnivore, I tried all the latest and greatest health supplements popularized by health podcasters and influencers, I tried every fancy exercise regime I could get my hands on; I saw every doctor under the sun from the best cardiologists money could buy, to traditional Chinese medicine practitioners, to naturopathic doctors, to functional medical doctors, to an 'intuitive medical psychic'. I tried Bryan Johnson's Blueprint protocol, many of Dr. Andrew Huberman's protocols, and even spent a month as a monk. I was desperate to regain the confidence in my heart and finally get my health back. Even with this desperation I would still regularly succumb to eating ultra processed unhealthy junk foods. Like a drug addict, I was a junkie.

Part 3. Discovering the field of longevity

It wasn't until I started working with a longevity focused functional medicine doctor who introduced me to Dr. Peter Attia where I started to really regain my confidence and reclaim my health. I binge watched every single Attia video I could get my hands on and paid a pretty penny to get inside look at what being a client is like inside of his medical practice. I finally understood that true health had nothing to do with one fad vs another but rather identifying personal risk factors and building sustainable lifestyle habits that you can stick with for life.

Part 4. Hell weekend health bootcamp

After trying everything, I felt like I had found the magic sauce. In an attempt to try to solve the health problem for others, I launched 'Ownership', a David Goggins-esque health bootcamp aiming to give founders the kick in the butt they need to start prioritizing their health. I used my network and a friends newsletter to get a handful of startup founders to come to a luxury AirBnb for a weekend of biohacking. During that weekend, we'd get a chef to cook healthy meals, a phlebotomist to come draw our blood, and hire an ex UFC fighter and Navy SEAL to kick our ass. While the healthy food and blood party aspect of this was fun, I quickly found out that the 'Hell Weekend' bootcamp idea sounds great in theory but the actual reality of it does not have product market fit amongst Silicon Valley knowledge workers lol.

Part 5. Finding Ageless

Charlie Munger says, "produce what you would want to buy on the other end." I took that to heart and focused less on prescriptive tactics and more on the core mindsets, principles, and daily habits required to hit your health and longevity goals that I learnt from Dr. Peter Attia and many others. We're now laser focused on helping busy entrepreneurs, investors, and knowledge workers unlock the science and art of longevity by acting as a 'Chief Risk Officer' for their health and targeting the four horsemen of death. Ageless customers look similar to me from a few years ago, high achievers (usually a lot more than I) that put their health on the back burner in the pursuit of wealth. We arm these high achievers with the advanced testing they should be doing to stay on top of their health, and the psychology & habits to give them health for life. If you can't do it for a decade, why do it for a day.
