Episode 13: The next era of fitness and wellness: Personalized plus smart tech
January 20th, 2026
We’re launching Year Two of our podcast with a timely conversation on how fitness and wellness is evolving — and what today’s workforce really needs to stay healthy.
Host Ann Wyatt, Vice President of Client Success, sits down with Russell Cook, Co-founder and President of FitOn Health, a leading digital health and preventive care platform and founder of AllTrails, the world’s leading outdoor app. As a serial entrepreneur at the intersection of health and technology, Russell has helped shape how millions engage with fitness—both on their own and through employer-sponsored wellness programs.
In this episode, Russell shares his unconventional journey into wellness, the lessons he didn’t expect to learn and why employee fitness works best when technology tools are paired with meaningful, in-person support. Ann and Russell discuss how human connection, accountability and access to digital platforms together create more sustainable wellness outcomes for employees.
