Joining him in this insightful discussion was Dr. Apurv Gupta, a fellow healthcare leader.
In this interview, Dr. Chen shared his journey, insights, and the mission behind ThriveWell and BLU by ThriveWell™. The conversation focused on the 5 Drivers of Health & Wellness and how these core pillars—personal, community, physical, nutritional, and spiritual health—are essential to optimizing health, longevity, and well-being.
Dr. Chen also discussed the inspiration behind BLU by ThriveWell™, a cutting-edge wellness and longevity center opening soon in South Florida.
“We were at a point where Jessica and I asked ourselves, ‘What do we feel we are called to do in the next phase of our lives?’ We really loved this concept of helping people live to their fullest potential and live as many years as they can with health. That’s when we started talking about this idea of ‘healthspan.’ You hear it now all over the news—how do we expand not just lifespan, but healthspan? And that’s when we came up with this term called ThriveYears,” said Dr. Chen. “ThriveYear™ an additional year of healthspan achieved by pursuing optimized health, wellness and purpose—and that’s exactly what we’re aiming to bring to South Florida.”
