In this episode, I sit down with Daniel Rudyak, Co-Founder of ReadyRx, to explore his bold transition from billion-dollar private-equity deals to building one of the most innovative platforms in longevity and wellness.
A former Managing Director at Beverly Capital who executed over $1 billion in transactions, Daniel shares how personal loss, relentless curiosity, and a belief in proactive health led him to co-found ReadyRx—a telehealth company redefining access to GLP-1s, NAD+, and other longevity therapies.
From Wall Street grit to a mission-driven startup, Daniel opens up about risk, resilience, and what it truly means to bet on time itself.
