In this episode, Michael Glatts sits down with Adam Citron, founder of The Strategic Conduit, to talk about chronic illness, preventative wellness, employer benefits, and why individuals and organizations need to take a more proactive approach to health. Adam shares his own experience living with Crohn’s disease, undergoing numerous surgeries, and navigating the financial and practical challenges of the healthcare system.Adam explains that traditional healthcare often focuses on treating problems after they appear, while his approach is centered on helping people take action earlier. He discusses areas like nutrition, sleep, movement, mental health, and access to professionals who can help people improve their health before problems become more serious.The conversation also explores the role employers and trusted advisors play in employee health. Adam argues that benefit decisions should not be based only on cost containment, but also on whether employees can actually access and use the care being offered. He encourages employers to ask better questions, review their options throughout the year, and hold their advisors accountable.In this episode:● The rise of chronic illness in the United States● Adam’s experience living with Crohn’s disease● Why access and affordability can stop people from seeking care● Moving beyond reactive healthcare● What proactive wellness can look like● Nutrition, movement, sleep, and mental health● The role employers play in employee health● Holding benefits advisors accountable● Why health benefits should be usable, not just available● Becoming a better buyer of healthcare● Comparing healthcare and prescription costs● Making small, sustainable health changes● Why self-advocacy matters● Using telehealth and other available resources● Adam’s personal health transformation● Setting a healthier example for children and familiesAdam’s message is that better health does not always begin with a dramatic change.
