On this episode of WellBuilt, Jon spoke to Devon Lévesque and Albert Matheny, Founders of Promix, about simplifying health and nutrition while balancing mental, physical, and entrepreneurial challenges.

Devon and Albert shared how their complementary skill sets and shared passion for health led to building Promix, a brand focused on whole foods and clean supplements designed to meet real-life needs. From Devon’s upbringing on a farm to Albert’s experience as a food scientist and athlete, their personal journeys shaped Promix’s ethos of prioritizing simplicity, transparency, and affordability in health.

The discussion touched on their emphasis on foundational health principles, like prioritizing whole foods over supplements and focusing on movement, community, and clean living. They reflected on the pitfalls of overcomplicating wellness and offered actionable advice on returning to basics—good nutrition, sunlight, and meaningful relationships. The duo also critiqued wellness trends that promote unnecessary complexity, encouraging listeners to embrace sustainable and straightforward health habits.

Devon and Albert opened up about how they structure their lives around core values like family, health, and community. Devon highlighted the importance of scheduling adventures and health priorities first, allowing work to fit around what matters most. Albert added that health must be treated as a non-negotiable, like eating or sleeping, and shared insights on building resilience through flexible routines and adaptable mindsets.

Devon also shared his practice of taking on annual “Masogi” challenges—feats with a 50/50 chance of success—to push his mental and physical limits. From bear crawling the New York Marathon to summiting Everest, these experiences have shaped his mindset and informed Promix’s mission to inspire growth through health and movement.

The founders also delved into their approach to product development, prioritizing authenticity, and real solutions over fleeting trends. They shared their belief in making health accessible to all, cutting out unnecessary costs and middlemen, and creating products that align with their transparent and community-driven ethos.
