If you listen to the media, we are already in the grips of high inflation and descending into a global recession. True or not, the mantra becomes self-fulfilling.
We all have a personal economy that depends on us to take leadership. We will be disappointed if we wait for the government to save us. It is up to us to step up to our personal financial leadership and make the most of the uncertainty.
What will you do differently?
Surely, money in the bank loses value every day if it is not put to more productive use. With the stock market down by about 30%, that’s looking risky. How about real estate? In some markets, a drop of 23% is expected.
What will you do?
Personally, we are investing heavily to create intangible assets that go up when the market is down and go up even faster when the market is up.

Health, medicine, and well-being have always been important to me. I have had my share of personal health challenges, emergency hospital visits, accidents, near-death experiences, and struggles to find a diet that works best for my body type, genetics, and lifestyle. Over the years, I have talked to thousands of doctors and healthcare professionals about my health challenges, loved ones, and suffering clients. I have helped people to die with grace and dignity. However, I prefer to help people to live longer and more fulfilling lives.
I grew up on a farm in New Zealand where we grew our own vegetables, ate fruit from our own trees, enjoyed fresh eggs and dairy from our own cows, and my mother bought sacks of wheat, ground our own flour, and baked everything fresh. My siblings and I would hang around the kitchen waiting for the hot bread fresh from the oven. We would often churn our butter and whip our cream, although this was very labor-intensive!
We grew up vegetarian, which was kinda odd on a dairy farm in the 1970s! I have since expanded my diet to be more omnivore, not because I lost my love of animals but because my health improved when I ate a more diverse diet. I always believed that “you are what you eat” and that “your body is the temple for the soul.”
In our lifetime, we will all suffer from health challenges. It is not a case of if, but when and how much we will suffer.
I was the primary caregiver for my former wife and business partner on a 7-year journey with breast cancer until she died in my arms. She taught me how to love, live, and give all you have got. We traveled the world to consult and work together with a team of leading doctors, scientists, and complementary medicine practitioners to heal, alleviate pain, prolong life, and identify and treat the root causes.
Our health and medical journey took many twists and turns, from profound moments of love and healing to a horror show of life and death in and out of multiple emergency departments. As a result of our many experiences and research, we formed the opinion that despite the billions of dollars spent on modern medicine – it is primarily focused on treating disease and not prevention, healing, treating root causes, and life extension. The whole person is rarely considered. Nutrition, lifestyle, and spiritual, emotional, and mental health are not addressed. Physical disease and dysfunction are dissected and compartmentalized. The success of modern medicine has solved many problems and saved many lives; however, it is also a victim of its own success.
Healing, which used to be its central function, is often forgotten. Here at Goldzone Wellness Center, we are not trying to make wrong or replace conventional medicine, nor criticize the millions of expert and well-meaning professionals who dedicate their lives to helping others. We are offering an additional alternative to those who want a more personalized wellness experience that encompasses you as a whole person. Beyond functional lies extraordinary. If you want an extraordinary quality of life that is full and as long as possible, welcome to Goldzone!
I have since remarried and, together with my current wife and business partner, founded Goldzone Wellness Center and Medical Clinic to recruit doctors who share our beliefs about wellness and the importance of a person’s well-being and to offer science-based medical services that empower clients (not patients) to take charge of their health by focusing on prevention, early detection, and healing chronic conditions using a combination of Functional Medicine, Lifestyle Medicine, Complementary Medicine, and standard medical practice.
We take a scientific and systematic approach to determine the state of health, combined with subjective measures such as how a person feels, their lifestyle, purpose in life, quality of relationships, and genetic history to empower clients to take charge of their health, improve quality of life, boost energy, become more resilient, and live a long, fulfilling, and purposeful life.
I am passionate about life, contribution, and making the most of our time. Central to your ability to make an impact and live the life of your dreams is the health and energy to do it and the time to enjoy it.
That is what we are dedicated to; long life, vital energy, and regenerative health.
Enjoy, and I hope to see you soon… XOXO

We love organizing educational and expansive experiences in Thailand! My first visit was in 1989. Wow, have things changed since then!
When is the best time to go to Thailand? When you are hungry. When you are bored. When you need a friend. When you are lonely. When you are tired. When you need a change of pace. When you need an updraft. GOLDZONE + Thailand = MAGIC. Now is the best time, RIGHT NOW!
We look forward to seeing you at your next GOLDZONE Event in Thailand!

If you were an architect or a doctor, you would know the nomenclature of architecture or medicine. If you are not a doctor, you would pick up some of the terminologies of medicine from your family doctor, the media or friends, however, you wouldn’t have a full command of it unless you were very interested and committed to years of study. Even within the field of medicine, there are specialties that have their own terminologies. Yikes!

Misunderstood words have an enormous impact on your comprehension of a subject. Many of us feel stupid when we encounter a word we do not understand or cannot pronounce.
Becoming a Master of any subject area requires developing an in-depth understanding of the terminology of that particular field. As you read an article or post, be aware of any stuck attention and words that make you feel dumb or ignorant and look them up in a dictionary or this site’s Glossary.
Definitions and terms include those commonly used in GOLDZONE Programs. In some cases, we have included only the meanings relevant to the consulting, training, and coaching context. For a full definition, refer to a dictionary.
