"BREAKING NEWS: Your dream life (and your dream bod) isn’t just going to happen because you made a vision board. Join Oonagh Duncan (fitness expert and bestselling author of Healthy As F*ck/Ditch The Diet) to examine the habits of kicking ass every day - so you can create a life of no regrets. Whether you want to lose weight, get rich, or save the whales while writing bestselling mystery novels- get ready to be inspired. This isn’t about incantations and putting the right crystals in your bra. This is about having the courage to take responsibility for your life, the grit to do the actual work and—most importantly—constantly training your brain to be your b*tch. Here’s what you can expect: Sometimes you’ll get the most tender loving b*tch slap in your ear about why you need to exercise - even when you don’t f*cking feel like it. Sometimes you’ll get a sleep expert teach you the exact steps on how to fall back asleep at 3am so you don’t feel like a zombie all day. Sometimes you’ll hear from someone who ran the marathon, kicked the addiction or manifested their dream threesome on the beach and you’ll think “If they can do it, so can I” And when you start thinking thoughts like that… you will be inspired to stop drifting and being a victim of your circumstances - and start actively creating the life you want. It takes Goals. It takes Grit. And it takes some Woo-Woo Sh*t."

Trick Yourself Into Healthy Habits With Interior Design with Melanie Zaelich
Melanie Zaelich of Happy Place Interiors knows your home isn’t just where you live—it’s shaping your habits, health, and happiness.
Healthy habits don’t stop at the kitchen. Hide reminders inside cabinets, switch to smaller plates, and make movement unavoidable—store things higher, put those stairs to work, and keep music within reach for instant motivation. Lightweight furniture? Perfect for clearing space for workouts or dance parties.
The more convenient life gets, the less we move.
One of the biggest home mistakes? Letting clutter take over—because it’s not just a physical mess, it’s a mental drain. Empty walls might seem minimal, but too bare can feel unfinished. And color? It sets the mood. Keep bedrooms restful, workout spaces energetic, and save bold reds for a statement outfit, not your kitchen walls.
Let tech work for you. Swap harsh overhead lights for smart bulbs and lamps to protect your circadian rhythm. And don’t let clutter creep back—keep a donation bin handy so there’s always an easy exit strategy (clutter in, clutter out).
Want a kitchen that supports healthy habits? Use clear glass containers for effortless meal prep, add an anti-fatigue mat to keep your body happy, and bring in plants or candles to create a space that feels as good as it looks.
Biggest trend right now? Biophilic design—bringing nature indoors for clarity and calm. No green thumb? No problem. Snake plants and Zanzibar gems thrive on neglect.
Simple changes, big impact. When your space feels good, you feel good.
What’s Inside:
- How to inconvenience yourself into a home workout.

- The biggest mistake you're making in your home design.
- The newest home trend: Biophilic Design.
