Healthcare in the U.S. has normalized five-minute visits, packed waiting rooms, and premiums that punish families and small businesses. In this Weeks Weekly episode, Ed sits down with nurse practitioner and founder of Your Wellness Path, Amy Bryson, who is rebuilding primary care in Dutchess County with a Direct Primary Care (DPC) model that puts patients first.

Amy breaks down how DPC works in real life:

• Flat monthly fee, often less than a cell phone bill

• Unlimited access and direct texting with your provider

• Same or next-day sick visits, no phone trees, no six-month wait

• Longer appointments that dig into root causes, not just prescriptions

• Built-in access to low-cost generics, labs, imaging, and partner pharmacy

She also explains a powerful insurance partnership that:

• Saves individuals an estimated $250/month

• Saves families over $6,000 per year

• Eliminates deductibles for specialists, surgery, and hospitalization when using partner providers

• Will be fully compatible with HSA coverage for DPC fees starting January 1, 2026

You will hear:

• A real example of avoiding a 5-hour ER visit for a simple laceration

• Why Amy caps her panel at ~300 patients instead of 3,000–4,000

• How functional and integrative thinking show up in her practice: hormones, weight, autoimmune, sleep, environment, and lifestyle

• Why she walked away from traditional systems that rushed visits and devalued Medicaid patients

• Expansion plans for Western Dutchess, employer wellness days, and on-site screenings

If you are fed up with the warehouse model of medicine and want affordable, relationship-driven care in the Hudson Valley, this episode shows a working alternative.

This week on Weeks Weekly, Ed Weeks Jr. reflects on a turning point in his entrepreneurial and personal journey—stepping into a groundbreaking stem cell project that reconnects decades of experience in healthcare, sales, and leadership with a deeper sense of purpose. What began as a simple conversation within his close network has evolved into a major opportunity to shape the next wave of regenerative medicine and AI-driven marketing.

Ed traces the arc from his early career in Big Pharma—where corporate limits and poor leadership drove him away—to his renewed excitement for innovation that actually improves lives. This project, anchored in stem cell research, also connects to something deeply personal: advancing treatments for Parkinson's disease. It's not just about business growth anymore, but about creating social impact, legacy, and meaningful change.

He shares hard-earned insights from thirty-plus years in entrepreneurship—how tempered excitement replaces youthful impatience, why execution now matters more than energy, and how faith, family, and a tight inner circle sustain progress when the path gets uncertain. The episode captures a quiet but powerful realization: purpose is the real profit.

At 55, Ed's perspective sharpens around impact—on his family, his community in the Hudson Valley, and the broader ecosystem of entrepreneurs navigating midlife reinvention. He reflects on the shift from chasing wins to building systems, from noise to legacy, from hustle to alignment.

October 1, 2025 marks more than just the start of Q4. It's a reminder that mindset determines everything. Growing up and building businesses in the Hudson Valley, I've seen the plague of scarcity thinking, small-minded competition, and even betrayal from people you thought were lifelong allies. Contrast that with the West Coast abundance mindset, where partnerships thrive and everyone can win together.

This episode of Weeks Way is about drawing the line: letting go of backstabbers, pressing on without grudges, and owning your story. I break down why I've consolidated all my media into one brand - Weeks Weekly - to cut through the noise, deliver real value, and inspire entrepreneurs confused by AI, stuck in old models, or trapped by toxic environments.

Life and business will test you. People will fail you. The real question is whether you let that hold you back, or whether you say FIPO: F** It, Press On*.

Call to Action If you're ready to drop excuses, kill the scarcity mindset, and start building with people who actually get it, head over to stan.store/weeks. That's where we put the strategies into action together.
