College is where most of us make our first real adult decisions—and where a lot of lifelong habits begin. Rebecca Sanchez, Executive Director of the Lifelong Wellbeing Foundation, joins Mark to share how an “on-campus voice for longevity” is helping students build health, resilience, and purpose across the eight dimensions of well-being—before burnout, debt, or poor habits hardwire.

From redefining campus culture (beyond the Hollywood party script) to peer-led clubs, real habit building, and early intervention, Rebecca unpacks why community and practical tools matter. She also shares the serendipitous origin story of the Foundation—from a chance conversation in Helsinki to a funded plan—and exactly how students, alumni, and supporters can get involved.

Algae that fuels astronauts, elite athletes—and maybe your morning routine. Dr. Catherine Arnston (ENERGYbits) sits down with Mark at the Changing Life & Destiny Conference for this episode of the Performance Driven Living Podcast, to unpack why spirulina (energy/focus) and chlorella (detox/recovery) might be the most underrated “fast food” on earth—and how a midlife leap with zero science background became a mission.

We get into the origin story (her sister’s cancer, alkaline eating, and Warburg’s research), Algae 101 (spirulina is a cyanobacteria; chlorella is a green algae), and the big reasons quality matters—clean growing, no high heat—to preserve heavy-hitters like SOD and phycocyanin. Catherine shares simple protocols (pre = spirulina, post = chlorella), real-world dosing from daily use to NHL/ultrarunner stacks, and an easy “pistachio mix” hack. Then we pivot to mindset: grit, bankruptcy, starting from zero, and the reframe that changed everything—“What if I’m right?”

00:02:32 Why algae? Sister’s diagnosis, alkaline diet & Warburg

00:04:08 Algae 101 + the NASA nutrient-density stat (1g ≈ 1000g veggies)

00:06:31 Quality that counts: SOD, phycocyanin, and why low-heat processing matters

00:08:46 How to use it: daily vs. therapeutic dosing, athletes, recovery & detox

00:19:36 Entrepreneur’s pivot: fear, failure, and “What if I’m right?”

Former pro ballplayer and Real Ketones co-founder Rob Rogers joins Performance Driven Living to unpack what ketones really are, why BHB (beta-hydroxybutyrate) can feel so different from caffeine, and how shifting from sugar to ketones may impact brain speed, energy, appetite, and more. We also get personal on philanthropy: supporting military families and fighting human trafficking. Not medical advice—informational only.

00:01:17 – From Cleveland Indians org to ketone entrepreneur: Rob’s origin story

00:09:08 – Birth of exogenous ketones: USF/D’Agostino, Navy & NASA; bio-identical BHB

00:16:42 – Brain benefits, concussions & “executive function” gains; why Rob doses daily

00:28:06 – The real enemy is sugar (not salt): microbiome, cravings & practical swaps

00:47:10 – Impact beyond business: military support, scholarships & anti-trafficking work
