    Rethinking Regenerative Signaling Without Live Cells or Invasive Procedures with Dr. Tommy Rhee

    Cell-free regenerative medicine in athletes is a specialized and minimally invasive therapeutic modality that facilitates the repair and regeneration of musculoskeletal injuries—including tendonitis, ligament tears, and cartilage damage—through the direct delivery of concentrated bioactive molecules to the site of injury, rather than live, cultured cells. Proven Results (Anecdotal vs. Scientific): While numerous athletes have reported favorable outcomes—for instance, studies indicate as much as 70% improvement in pain and functionality—the National Institutes of Health notes that further scientific validation is warranted. Common Applications: These therapies are routinely utilized for chronic musculoskeletal conditions such as Achilles tendinosis, ACL/MCL injuries, and degenerative joint disorders. Dr. Tommy Rhee serves as a sports chiropractor, author, and innovator within the field of cell-free regenerative medicine. With clinical practice dating back to 2006 and more than two decades of experience in regenerative therapies, Dr. Rhee is recognized for his expertise in topical regenerative modalities. He has previously worked with the UCLA Athletic Department and was the team chiropractor for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers from 2015 to 2018. Acknowledging the limitations and risks associated with injection-based stem cell therapies, Dr. Rhee dedicated over three years to the development of RheeGen®, a patent-pending, cell-free topical regenerative platform designed to deliver regenerative signaling without the need for live cells or invasive procedures. Dr. Rhee is also the author of "The Future of Regenerative Medicine: Unlocking the Potential of Topical Stem Cell Therapy," wherein he examines the transformative impact of non-invasive, topical regenerative approaches on modern healing and recovery. His professional background encompasses elite sports medicine, clinical innovation, and prior service as a U.S. Navy aviator, affording him a distinctive perspective on performance, rehabilitation, and the evolving landscape of regenerative care.

    Guiding Leadership Teams Through Scale, Transformation, and Uncertainty with: David Aferiat

    According to reports from Forbes and McKinsey & Company, as of early 2025, a remarkable 92% of small- and medium-sized business (SMB) leaders are optimistic about their companies’ growth over the next three years. When it comes to growth mindset and revenue, research conducted in late 2024 found that 80% of senior executives at U.S. firms believe an employee’s growth mindset is directly linked to profits. Additionally, 89% note that future success hinges on leaders embracing this mentality. In terms of strategic focus, a 2025 survey of experienced entrepreneurs showed that although economic uncertainty persists, 95% feel confident about their prospects for the coming year. Of these, 40% rank investments in AI and automation as their leading strategy for expansion. David Aferiat, a dual citizen of America and France, founded Avid Vines—an organic champagne importer operating out of Atlanta. He also serves as Managing Principal of The Avid Group, which coaches leadership teams through scale, transformation, and uncertain times with the Bloom Growth system. David grew Trade Ideas, a fintech company, from the ground up into a multi-million-dollar venture recognized on the Inc. 5000 list for six consecutive years. His leadership roles include President of the French-American Chamber of Commerce for the Southeast U.S., President of the Entrepreneurs’ Organization (EO) Atlanta Chapter, and Chair of EO’s regional Nerve conference, which featured a $1M budget and over 500 attendees from around the globe. A generation ago, David’s father embarked on a life-changing journey during the revolution between France and its then colony, Algeria, resulting in the family dividing between Nice and the U.S. It took 26 years for David and his father to reconnect with their French relatives. Inspired by both cultures, David draws from French art, food, and tradition, committed to introducing American tables to clean, artisanal Premier Cru champagne that honors legacy and leaves no regrets. But David’s impact goes beyond champagne; he empowers others through growth coaching, guiding leaders and teams on their own Hero’s Journey to build resilience, daily discipline, and strategic clarity.
