What happens when a decorated Green Beret decides to rebuild his life from the ground up—not in combat, but in the gym and the boardroom? That’s the driving question behind the latest issue of VINCE Lifestyle Magazine, a publication that clearly sees life after 40 as a launchpad, not a landing zone.

NEW YORK, NY, UNITED STATES, November 10, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — The November 2026 Veterans Day Special Edition of VINCE Lifestyle Magazine is now out, and its cover story zeroes in on Michael Taylor, a former U.S. Army Green Beret. Taylor’s narrative—moving from military service into entrepreneurship, and then focusing on a physical and professional comeback—is described as a remarkable account of resilience, determination, and personal reinvention.
Through discipline, progressive strength training, and sheer perseverance, Taylor managed to rebuild his physical condition after leaving the military. He eventually returned to competitive masters bodybuilding. That experience, in turn, helped inspire the creation of Vitamin 1, a sugar-free, caffeine-free hydration beverage he developed.
Today, Taylor’s story is framed as something bigger than a single individual’s recovery. It’s held up as an example of what’s possible when someone sets out to rebuild their life, health, and sense of purpose after extraordinary hardship. The feature also looks ahead at the next phase of his entrepreneurial path, including plans to bring his story to the screen.
The interview was conducted by Vincent Ferguson, a U.S. Navy veteran, certified wellness coach, and co-publisher of VINCE Lifestyle Magazine, through the “More Life to Your Years” platform.
A Magazine Built Around Healthier, More Purposeful Living
But the November edition is not solely about Taylor. It brings together a slate of conversations with health professionals, wellness entrepreneurs, and personal development experts—all addressing the shifting priorities of people navigating life after 40.
Here are some of the featured contributors:
Dr. Erica Oberg — When Healthy Habits Become Another Source of Stress. A naturopathic doctor, researcher, and author of “Healthy Hedonism: Why Feeling Good Is Good for You,” Dr. Oberg challenges the idea that healthy aging requires increasingly restrictive routines and constant self-discipline. Her discussion explores the interplay between enjoyment, stress, hormones, menopause, social connection, and longevity. Her message advocates for a more balanced approach to wellness where pleasure and quality of life are still front and center.
Belize Blue Nutrients — Brian McGuire and Christina Kinder. The magazine dives into the rising interest in sea moss through a conversation with the founders of Belize Blue Nutrients. Their feature, “Sourcing Matters: The Truth About Sea Moss After 40,” examines sourcing, ocean farming, processing, and nutritional makeup. It also tackles popular claims regarding digestion, thyroid function, beauty, brain health, and sexual wellness. The discussion highlights the company’s relationship with Belizean farming communities and efforts to support sustainable development in the seaweed industry. Importantly, the article draws a line between established nutritional facts and claims that still need more scientific research.
Jason Feldman — Moving Beyond the “Parent Persona.” Professional Certified Coach Jason Feldman addresses a challenge many adults face: when parenting has been their primary identity for decades. His article, “The Space Between,” tackles empty nesting, identity, personal purpose, and reconnecting with individual interests and a sense of vitality.
Ami Porges — Healthcare That Works as a Team. The longevity section introduces Ami Porges, founder of Longevity Access Partners and Primary Prevention. Drawing on 18 years of experience with operational challenges inside healthcare systems, Porges discusses the value of coordinated, preventive care. His interview looks at the link between muscle preservation, nutrition, strength training, GLP-1 medications, and healthy aging. He makes the case for a more integrated approach that brings together physicians, registered dietitians, trainers, and health and wellness coaches to support individual health goals.
More Than a Magazine: Expanding the VINCE Lifestyle Ecosystem

A Growing Vision for Life After 40
For VINCE Lifestyle Magazine, this November Veterans Day edition is more than just another monthly publication. It reflects a continuing commitment to telling meaningful stories, sharing practical information, recognizing professional expertise, and creating opportunities for people to keep growing throughout their lives.

It is an opportunity for renewed strength, greater purpose, personal discovery, and new beginnings.
Why it matters: This issue underscores a growing cultural and economic shift—adults over 40 are increasingly seen as a market for reinvention, not retirement.
