FROM THE PUBLISHER COLLIN COUNTY Founder & CEO Josh Cates Vice President & CFO Bob Cates New Opportunities Step inside this issue, and you’ll find there’s a lot to take in. From longtime favorites to newcomers, our knowledgeable team of business and health professionals offer up engaging content within their realm of expertise. They’re committed to helping you navigate life with confidence. From health and wellness to business topics, count on our talented team of contributors for the relevant information that you’ve come to expect from LIVING WELL Magazine. You may recognize model and actor Joe Duer on our cover from his acting roles in Charlie’s Angels, John Q., or Twisted. Joe recently visited our featured contributor OrthoTexas Physicians and Surgeons for help with his painful knee condition. He shares his experience on page 8. His story illustrates that there’s hope for those suffering with similar pain. Meanwhile, our featured celebrity on page 38, 65-year-old Rick Springfield, has maintained a magnetic presence in the public eye for decades. Perhaps known best for his musical accomplishments––25 million records sold, a Grammy Award for his smash-hit Jessie’s Girl, and a whopping 17 Top 40 hits––Springfield has excelled in many different roles over the years. As an actor, he’s known for his iconic part as the dashing Dr. Noah Drake on the long-running soap opera General Hospital. Meanwhile, his recent stints on Californication and Hawaii 5-0 helped introduce Springfield to a new generation of fans. His highly anticipated turn on the second season of the critically acclaimed HBO drama True Detective is but one of the many new projects he has in the works. Inside, we catch up with this ageless performer who continues to prove that it’s never too late to explore new opportunities. With that in mind, we hope you have an opportunity to take in everything this area has to offer during one of our favorite times of the year––springtime. For us, it’s the best season to enjoy relaxing outside on the patio, when the first days of warmer temps start to appear, while reading our favorite magazines. Hopefully, you’ll make LIVING WELL Magazine part of your required seasonal reading. Enjoy!
