In this mini episode, Dr. Derrick Hines breaks down a simple principle that makes or breaks long-term health habits: consistency.

This episode introduces the idea of “health multipliers” and explains why small actions, done consistently, create outsized results over time. Dr. Hines shares why intensity is less important than showing up, and how adjusting your plan during challenging days helps you maintain momentum instead of starting over.

If you’ve ever fallen off track because life got busy or your routine wasn’t perfect, this episode offers a practical framework to keep moving forward.

Topics Covered:

-- What health multipliers are and why they matter
-- Why consistency beats intensity
-- The “modify, but maintain” mindset
-- How small habits compound over time

🎧 Tune in to learn how protecting consistency can help you build habits that actually last.
