Jaclyn Schiff of The Schiff Report has a great interview with Adam Gilbert of My Body Tutor. We interviewed Adam on Y-Talk Radio earlier in January. This interview is a great read regarding Gen Y’s commitment to health and fitness.

It really is fascinating to watch the health and fitness trend with this younger generation. During our college visits over the past three years, the gym and the focus on healthy foods have been big recruitment features on the majority of visits. And…my daughters take advantage of the facilities offered (and I know for a fact that the Whole Foods in Durham gets a lot of Duke traffic, because my daughter and Ann and I talk about the latest, greatest foods she and her friends have discovered there over the last 18 months).

Was Spitzer destined to fall? I am not a therapist, so I am not going to try to answer that question.

However, this article in Time Magazine from yesterday, March 13, 2008, provides some great insight into one perspective on answering this question.

While I don’t know the whys around this situation with Governor Spitzer, from a perspective of being a leadership coach, I believe the decision to resign was a good one. It is hard to lead from a high position when trust has been broken (we’ve all seen this story before and the fallout that follows).
