Resilience CBD Helps to Climb Your Mount Everest

Climbing your personal “Everest” shouldn’t seem like an impossibility. In 2019, two U.S. military veterans—one, a former Navy Seal and the other a former Army Captain—came together to begin a company for selling CBD products, in hopes of helping people meet their goals, their unique “Everests”, which may seem like an unexpected occurrence, at first. The two veterans knew that CBD products could aid healing and reducing anxiety.

But Michael Tatz, one of the founders of Resilience CBD, realized CBD has a multitude of benefits through using it, especially for those who are physically active, and who set personal “Everest” goals for themselves.

The founders know, from personal experience while serving, the body has great physical potential. Upon returning from serving, both of them, including Michael, found they were experiencing both physical and mental stresses and traumas as a result of their time in the military. They felt their potential was stunted, their stamina was shortened, and fatigue and stress was jeopardizing their day-to-day abilities.

They used CBD to help ease their pain and inflammation, and they found CBD not only reduced these things, but also increased their stamina and unexpectedly calmed their minds and heightened their focus. They both used products infused with CBD-oil and were surprised how much the CBD helped relieve the pain they felt during and after working out and calmed down their stress. Both Michael and his co-founder saw that by using CBD, they were able to conquer their fitness goals. This meant that stress and trauma didn’t have to be permanent, and it meant CBD could be used to help. They fully believed that no one should have to put off a goal because of trauma or stress.

For the two veterans, believing in the human potential means helping everyday athletes and others to overcome obstacles in order to meet their goals. Since the body is capable, and if the mind is determined, nothing should stop someone from meeting their goal. They saw that CBD is a way to bring goals even closer, which brought them to their vision of sharing CBD with others who wanted to meet fitness goals and achievements—and of course, help other veterans.

The two dedicated athletes and veterans felt they wanted to share the plethora of benefits they had experienced with other athletes, fellow veterans, and goal-setters.

But the founders didn’t want to just create a CBD product. They had the vision in mind to create a product that would benefit other physically active individuals, goal-setters, and both everyday and professional athletes.

They experienced how CBD can help those who are physically active, so they came up with a vision of how to help others within the fitness community. They decided to offer CBD products that focused on healing needs and desired performances, as well as using research and new CBD-developments to discover effective ways to integrate CBD into daily life.

Michael says it isn’t just CBD that is key to making the difference in performance. Resilience CBD uses a variety of ingredients—including lemongrass, rosemary, and other herbs—to have the best possible effect for stressed muscles and inflammation.

Resilience CBD’s commitment to the fitness community and to veterans is rooted in the belief in human potential and unlocking it to achieve whatever goals may be set to help a person climb their Everest.

Why Derik Fay Is Becoming a Case Study in Long-Haul Entrepreneurship

Entrepreneurship today is often framed in extremes — overnight exits or public flameouts. But a small cohort of operators is being studied for something far less viral: consistency. Among them, Derik Fay has quietly surfaced as a long-term figure whose name appears frequently across sectors, interviews, and editorial mentions — yet whose personal visibility remains relatively limited.

Fay’s career spans more than 20 years and includes work in private investment, business operations, and emerging entertainment ventures. Though many of his companies are not household names, the volume and duration of his activity have made him a subject of interest among business media outlets and founders who study entrepreneurial longevity over fame.

He was born in Westerly, Rhode Island, in 1978, and while much of his early career remains undocumented publicly, recent profiles including recurring features in Forbes — have chronicled his current portfolio and leadership methods. These accounts often emphasize his pattern of working behind the scenes, embedding within businesses rather than leading from a distance. His style is often described by peers as “operational first, media last.”

Fay has also become recognizable for his consistency in leadership approach: focus on internal systems, low public profile, and long-term strategy over short-term visibility. At 46 years old, his posture in business remains one of longevity rather than disruption  a contrast to many of the more heavily publicized entrepreneurs of the post-2010 era.

While Fay has never publicly confirmed his net worth, independent analysis based on documented real estate holdings, corporate exits, and investment activity suggests a conservative floor of $100 million, with several credible indicators placing the figure at well over $250 million. The exact number may remain private  but the scale is increasingly difficult to overlook.

He is also involved in creative sectors, including film and media, and maintains a presence on social platforms, though not at the scale or tone of many personal-brand-driven CEOs. He lives with his long-term partner, Shandra Phillips, and is the father of two daughters — both occasionally referenced in interviews, though rarely centered.

While not an outspoken figure, Fay’s work continues to gain media attention. The reason may lie in the contrast he presents: in a climate of rapid rises and equally rapid burnout, his profile reflects something less dramatic but increasingly valuable — steadiness.

There are no viral speeches. No Twitter threads drawing blueprints. Just a track record that’s building its own momentum over time.

Whether that style becomes the norm for the next wave of founders is unknown. But it does offer something more enduring than buzz: a model of entrepreneurship where attention isn’t the currency — results are.
