Description

122: In the Consequences of the Startup Life, Jon Carder, founder of Vessel Health, joins host William Glass to discuss his 23+ year entrepreneurial journey.  From bootstrapping early in his career to raising venture capital, Jon experienced all of the classic trials and tribulations of being a startup founder. Living on Ramen early in his career helped him through the bootstrapping phase, but ultimately took a toll on his health. After discovering functional medicine, Jon was able to revitalize his health and wellbeing. Vessel Health was born to help bring functional medicine to the masses.

About Jon Carder:


Jon Carder is a serial entrepreneur. He built four start-ups over the last 23 years, including successful 3 exits. Jon has raised ~$100M in venture capital and hired hundreds of employees.


That entrepreneurial lifestyle eventually took its toll and he started having challenges with low energy, brain fog, and trouble sleeping. These problems prevented Jon from consistently showing up as his best self. After talking to friends, he realized that these issues were actually pretty common.


Jon learned that through lab work he could identify the root cause of some of the problems and improve them, but that wasn’t going to happen with his conventional doctor. After a lot of searching he eventually found a functional medicine doctor, who was able to identify, through expensive blood work, that Jon had nutrient deficiencies and high toxin levels.


So, Jon adjusted his supplements, nutrition and lifestyle accordingly. And, within a month, he was feeling the best he had felt in years. This inspired Jon to start Vessel and use new technology to empower people to track and improve their wellness from home.
