Heart Health Hacks That Could Save Your Life and Optimize Your Energy with Cardiologist & Heart-Coach, Dr. Stefan Waller

Let’s be real—entrepreneurs love the grind. Late nights, early mornings, endless coffee, and pushing the limits to build the dream. But here’s the catch: if your heart isn’t in peak condition, all that hustle could be cutting your time short. So, how do you level up your business without sacrificing your health? In this episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast, I sat down with Dr. Stefan Waller, a cardiologist turned health coach, to break down real strategies for optimizing heart health—without the fluff. We’re talking about preventing heart disease before it even starts, simple nutrition hacks, and the key health metrics every entrepreneur should track. Dr. Waller emphasizes the importance of knowing your numbers. If you don’t track your business finances, you’ll go broke, right? Same thing with your health—if you don’t track your key metrics, your body might be running on borrowed time. Here are two critical numbers you should be checking regularly: 1️⃣ LDL Cholesterol (The Silent Killer) 👉 The "bad" cholesterol that clogs arteries and increases heart attack risk. 👉 Ideal levels: Less than 100 mg/dL (but consult your doctor for personal targets). 2️⃣ HbA1c (Your Blood Sugar Score) 👉 A measure of long-term blood sugar control (important for preventing diabetes). 👉 Ideal levels: Below 5.7%. If you haven’t checked these numbers lately, it’s time to schedule a blood test. One of the coolest things Dr. Waller is doing? He created a health program specifically for busy entrepreneurs. Because let’s face it—most wellness plans aren’t designed for those of us juggling meetings, clients, side hustles, and personal lives. His entrepreneurial health coaching gives personalized strategies to optimize your health while still crushing it in business. Because what’s the point of financial freedom if you’re too sick to enjoy it? At the end of the day, your body is your most valuable asset. You wouldn’t neglect your business systems, right? If you want to thrive in business AND in life, you gotta start with your health. And Dr. Waller just handed us the blueprint.

And to be honest, it's not that I really manage that every day, but at least I try. So it's following your passion, like loving what you do, because if you do that, you actually don't really work, because if you work as your passion, then you enjoy doing that every day. But at the same time, you have to find the right balance, because life also has to offer so many other great things, and you have to keep the equilibrium and to balance it.
