#224 The Truth About Health Tracking Devices (Oura, Whoop, Apple Watch & More)

Ever checked your Oura Ring score first thing in the morning… and instantly decided how your entire day was going to feel? US TOOOOO!

In this episode, we dive into the world of health tracking devices — from Oura Rings and Apple Watches to TempDrop, MyFitnessPal, Garmin, Whoop bands and beyond — and share our honest thoughts on whether these tools are genuinely helping us… or quietly making us more anxious, obsessive, and disconnected from our bodies.

We unpack the pros, the pitfalls, and the surprisingly emotional side of tracking your sleep, stress, HRV, food, fertility, steps, recovery and more. Because while data can absolutely help you make smarter health decisions… sometimes it can also turn your nervous system into a full-time project manager (and nobody wants THAT).
