J.C. Humphrey

Jim Humphrey’s life has been a journey of leadership, learning, and global exploration. A former Air Force officer and Kinesiology major, Jim’s fascination with human performance began early as a high school and college athlete. His 23-year military career took him to 32 countries, where he continued his studies in human health and wellness, earning a master’s degree in Aeronautical Science along the way, and a growing understanding of the effects of forces in flight on the body. After retiring from the Air Force, Jim applied his expertise in higher education and global manufacturing industries. But his personal life experiences—losing both parents to health complications and then surviving a life-threatening illness himself—became the true catalyst for this book. Driven by a deep desire to understand the factors that impact health, Jim now dedicates himself to empowering others with the knowledge needed to lead healthier, more vibrant lives.
