Episode Description

“Your back will never get better.”
That’s what a chiropractor told Cam at age 21 — just months after a deadlift left him in debilitating pain.

It was a moment that could have ended his active lifestyle, confidence, and future.
Instead, it became the starting point of something much bigger.

In this special co-founder origin episode, Andrew and Cam sit down for an honest, unfiltered conversation about the pain that brought them together, the flaws in traditional care models, and the fire that fueled the creation of Whealth — a company that’s now helped thousands take their health back into their own hands.

Cam shares the full arc of his journey:

  • What it was like to lose his identity as a college athlete to chronic back pain

  • The confusion, fear, and isolation of navigating MRIs, sciatica, and endless failed treatments

  • How damaging practitioner language (“you’ll never lift again”) nearly sealed his fate

  • Why a physical therapist who didn’t fix him still gave him hope

  • The moment he found Andrew online and took a leap of faith

  • How he went from being a client to becoming a coach and eventually co-founder

The episode also reveals the lesser-known backstory of Whealth — including:

  • The behind-the-scenes fallout from Andrew’s removal from MoveU

  • How five passionate people took a risk and built Whealth from zero

  • The early struggles of launching a mission-driven business with no money and no audience

  • Why Whealth’s approach to movement and mindset goes far beyond exercises

Whether you’re in pain, in doubt, or in a season of rebuilding, this episode is a reminder that your story isn’t over.
It might just be beginning.


If you’ve ever felt dismissed, broken, or stuck in pain — you’re not alone. This is your reminder: The body can heal. And you’re capable of far more than you’ve been told.
