Welcome to Ever Onward—and the start of a new 2026 format. Each month, Tommy Ahlquist will run a theme-based series with a co-host, beginning with a foundational conversation that frames the topic and sets up the episodes that follow.

We’re kicking off the year with Health & Longevity—and Tommy is joined by January’s co-host, Andy Scoggin, CEO of Scoggin Capital Investment, to lay the groundwork for what “living long” actually means: not just adding years to life, but building a longer healthspan—more strength, energy, clarity, and capability for the people and purpose that matter most.

In this kickoff episode, Tommy (58) and Andy (63) get practical about the shift that hits many high-performers in their 40s and 50s: you can’t keep mortgaging your health for hustle forever. They talk about when to “pull the throttle back,” how to re-stack priorities, and what they wish they would’ve done sooner—because you can’t bank sleep, and you can’t rewind a decade of inconsistent habits.

You’ll hear:

• Healthspan vs. lifespan and why the goal is “square the curve”
• How to major in the majors (exercise, strength, sleep, nutrition basics) instead of obsessing over minor hacks
• Andy’s personal operating system: the first hour that changes the other 23 (gratitude, prayer/meditation, mental training, movement)
• Strength + VO₂ max + consistency—what actually drives long-term independence
• Sleep protocols that work in real life (routine, cool/dark room, caffeine cutoff, magnesium, and getting back to sleep)
• Nutrition fundamentals that compound—especially protein and metabolic health
• The unsexy longevity edge most people ignore: avoid preventable accidents (yes, like texting and driving)

This is the foundation for the month—a framework you can use to reset your routine, refocus your goals, and build a life where success doesn’t come at the expense of your body, mind, or relationships.

New episodes drop Monday mornings in January 2026 (Jan 5, 12, 19, 26).
