Welcome to Episode 3 of The HumanUp Imperative, a podcast about re-centering human connection in a healthcare industry that too often sidelines it.
In this episode, host Rex Wallace sits down with Sean Lancaster, a triathlete, Ironman competitor, and founder of Lancaster Advanced Nutrition. After spending decades in healthcare facility management, Sean made a dramatic midlife pivot, leaving a successful career to align his professional life with his personal passion for endurance training, fitness, and wellness.
🎧 In this episode, we explore:
Why physical fitness is often the entry point to mental, emotional, and even spiritual transformation
How strength training builds confidence while endurance training brings clarity and emotional resilience
The myth of work-life separation and why holistic wellness matters for high performance
How to integrate fitness and movement into busy professional lives (yes, even during back-to-back Zooms)
The underestimated link between fitness and leadership presence, energy, and connection with others
What it really takes to “just get started” when you're feeling stuck
Why nearly every Fortune 500 CEO prioritizes daily workouts and what that tells us about leading well
💡 Whether you're an executive navigating burnout, a healthcare leader looking to re-energize your team, or someone trying to reconnect with yourself, this episode is a powerful reminder that movement is medicine.
