252. Extending Your Best Years: Inside the New Skyterra Longevity Program with Dr. Josh Schulist

What is the difference between adding years to your life and adding true life to your years? If you are tired of traditional healthcare that simply manages symptoms with a prescription and a six-month follow-up, it is time for a different approach. At Skyterra, we believe that true longevity isn’t just about your lifespan, it’s about maximizing your healthspan so you can live in a body that moves freely, feels energized, and stays strong and independent as you age.

In this episode of Inspired Intentions, host Alan and Director of Admissions and Marketing Kenzie Ostler welcome Dr. Joshua Schulist, MD, a board-certified family and lifestyle medicine physician who oversees every guest in Skyterra’s brand-new Longevity Program.

Alan, Kenzie, and Dr. Schulist take a deep dive into how this transformative, eight-week pathway bridges the gap between clinical testing and everyday living. Dr. Josh shares why he left traditional symptom-focused medicine to help people build sustainable, root-cause health habits and why combining four weeks of pre-arrival biometric tracking with four immersive weeks on campus beats a quick four-day executive health assessment every time. Instead of sending you home overwhelmed by a pile of test results you don’t know how to use, Skyterra gives you the time, medical guidance, and supportive environment to actually live the changes and watch your health markers improve in real time.

What You’ll Experience in the Skyterra Longevity Program:

  • 4 Weeks of Pre-Arrival Baseline Tracking: Start gathering real-world data from the comfort of home using a WHOOP wearable tracker (measuring sleep, daily steps, heart rate variability, and recovery), a Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM), blood pressure monitoring, and comprehensive lab work.
  • Comprehensive On-Campus Diagnostics: Go beyond standard checkups with VO2 Max testing, resting metabolic rate assessments, InBody composition scans, and functional strength testing to uncover hidden metabolic dysfunction and cardiovascular risk.
  • Dedicated Physician & Expert Coaching: Sit down with Dr. Schulist for an intensive initial intake and weekly one-on-one consultations alongside private sessions with Skyterra’s registered dietitians, fitness specialists, and therapists.
  • Real-Time Results & Lasting Habits: Spend four weeks on campus practicing the six pillars of lifestyle medicine—nutrition, movement, restorative sleep, stress management, social connection, and preventive care—so you return home confident, thriving, and equipped with a personalized blueprint for the rest of your life.

There is no better investment you can make than in yourself and your future healthspan.
