Steve's father
This is my father months before he passed. This is what dementia looks like.

This is NOT what anyone should expect — or settle for — in their final chapter of life.

Hope. Survival. Strength.

My wife of 35 years survived a rare form of breast cancer at 52 years old.

Everyday she pushes forward — and her journey is the heart of why I built this.

Built by someone living it.

I am Steve. I am 59 years old, I have an engineering background, and I started and sold two technology companies. This is my Second Mountain.

I watched my wife fight cancer. I watched my parents disappear into dementia. I watched friends die too young. And I became convinced that most of it did not have to happen.

Live Prescription Free is my answer to that conviction.
