Conscious leaders serve the business's higher purpose because they're personally aligned with it, and in doing so, they serve all stakeholders to elevate the business to a higher level.
Six months after breaking my neck on the Colorado Trail at 72, I returned to the Appalachian Trail and hiked 171.4 miles. Here's what it taught me about aging and living well: johnpmackey.com/what-a-broken-…
"Capitalism created the possibility of the win win win. It used to be a zero sum game where somebody won, somebody else lost. It's a prosperity machine that's creating more, not just for those billionaires, but for everything that they're touching. Somebody like Elon Musk gets a very, very, very tiny sliver of the value that he creates for the whole world." — @iamjohnmackey
Here are three books I’ve read recently that I keep finding myself recommending to people. They cover very different ground, but each one left a real impression on me: johnpmackey.com/johns-must-rea…
"If you're on a winning team you can make a lot of money. We gave stock options to everybody that worked here. We had hundreds and hundreds of people that were able to buy a house and send their kids to college. These were ordinary people working at a grocery store. Ordinary people who never thought they would have any prosperity in the world. That is so deeply satisfying." — @iamjohnmackey

Community is medicine. Research consistently shows that strong social connections are one of the most powerful predictors of health, resilience, and longevity. Not the size of your network, but the depth of your relationships. A few people who make you feel safe, seen, and supported can profoundly shape your biology. Loneliness activates the same stress pathways as chronic disease. It drives inflammation, dysregulates hormones, weakens immune function, and accelerates aging. Connection does the opposite. It calms the nervous system, lowers cortisol, improves metabolic health, and even influences gene expression linked to longevity. This is why community is a core pillar of functional medicine. Food, movement, sleep, and supplements matter, but without meaningful human connection, healing is incomplete. Invest in your people. Nurture a small, trusted circle. Shared meals, honest conversations, laughter, and belonging are not soft interventions, they are some of the most powerful tools we have to extend healthspan and quality of life.

Mamdani’s city-run grocery store is 10x more expensive than Whole Foods per square foot. This comes as no surprise. Whole Foods founder @iamjohnmackey understands the beauty of capitalism: "Capitalism created the possibility of the win win win. It used to be a zero sum game where somebody won, somebody else lost. The biggest mistake people make, intellectuals in particular, they still think we're in a zero sum world. They're obsessed with some billionaires because Bernie Sanders thinks that Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk somehow stole the money from the people. They don't understand that it's this prosperity machine that's creating more, not just for those billionaires, but for everything that they're touching. They're creating value for their customers, they're creating value for their employees. Their suppliers are flourishing, their investors are seeing their capital go up. It can be reinvested and compound. All philanthropy ultimately comes from business. That's where the profits are. Where does all the taxes come from? It ultimately comes from business as well. This is the engine that's lifting humanity out. The entrepreneurs are the drivers of that engine. Somebody like Elon Musk, he gets a very, very, very tiny sliver of the value that he creates for the whole world."
JUST IN: New study shows Mamdani's "affordable" city-run grocery store is 10x more expensive than Whole Foods per square foot.

Whole Foods co-founder @iamjohnmackey: "The American dream is alive and well, and it's never been better. In fact, the dream is not only not dead, it's much better than it's ever been before."
I have never been so bullish on the United States of America.
A question I often get asked is why being able to delegate and empower Team Members is such an important leadership skill. I truly believe delegating is one of the most underrated yet most transformative skills a leader can possess. Read more: johnpmackey.com/delegation-and…
Choose to be present. Choose to let your heart open. Choose love over fear.
Fair trade is conscious business in action. In a previous Virtual Gathering, @iamjohnmackey and Paul Rice show how farmers, companies, and consumers can transform supply chains into systems of fairness, transparency, and shared value. 👉 go.consciouscapitalism.org/every-purchase… #FairTrade

Big news for the 3rd Annual Principled Business Summit, October 28–30, 2026, this year in Austin, Texas. We’re thrilled to announce our first keynote, @iamjohnmackey, co-founder of Whole Foods Market and CEO of Love.Life. For decades, John has been one of the most influential voices in modern capitalism, reframing how leaders think about purpose, entrepreneurship, and building businesses that truly serve people and communities. This year is especially meaningful as 2026 marks 250 years of both the Declaration of Independence and Adam Smith’s The Wealth of Nations - a milestone moment to reflect on what capitalism has achieved, confront its challenges, and explore how principled leaders can shape the next century of freedom, prosperity, and human flourishing. Join us in Austin and be part of the conversation. Secure your ticket today: principledbusiness.org/summit
John Mackey transformed Whole Foods from a small Austin-based grocer to an industry-reshaping chain. In this Q&A with @MrRBourne, @iamjohnmackey breaks down the win-win logic of markets, the folly of government-owned grocery stores, and why innovation always outruns monopolies. ow.ly/loit50Yj7i6
My friends and I often host Jeffersonian dinners, and we’ve had so many wonderful and memorable conversations. One question. One conversation. Here’s why I love a Jeffersonian dinner: johnpmackey.com/why-i-love-a-j…
I had the pleasure of speaking with @iamjohnmackey about conscious capitalism and spiritual leadership. We explored how business, at its best, can become a vehicle for moral and cultural development — not just profit. Watch Conversation and Q & A here: youtu.be/WlcOrZIdm2o
Business exists to create value, not just profits.
Just as happiness is best experienced by not aiming for it directly, profits are best achieved when they are not the primary goal of the business.
