The Future of Health: Preventative Care, Biohacks, and Empowered Aging with Zach Gurick

In this episode of What Are You Made Of?, host Mike “C-Roc” sits down with Zach Gurick, a leader in nonprofit organizational development and longevity innovation at Shell Point—the largest single-site nonprofit life plan community in the country. Zach shares his journey from years of youth-focused nonprofit leadership with Young Life to now curating wellness, biohacking, and longevity initiatives for seniors in Southwest Florida. He opens up about what he’s made of at his core—love, adventure, and the drive to make a lasting impact—and explains how that perspective shapes the way he leads and serves others. Together, Zach and Mike "C-Roc" discuss the importance of authentic relationships, the differences between nonprofit and for-profit work, and the exciting advances in functional medicine, AI-driven healthcare, and biohacking that could one day move people from assisted living back into independence. Zach’s vision is bold and full of hope: to add not just years to life, but life to years, and to help transform aging into an empowered, purpose-filled stage of life.Website-https://www.shellpoint.org/podcast/https://www.linkedin.com/in/zach-gurick-9684883a/
