Today we’re diving into the heart of what drives every part of your life: your physical well-being. From how you think and feel to how you show up for your family and future, your health affects it all. Yet, in 2025, we're facing a growing epidemic: rising obesity rates, skyrocketing diabetes, and a culture of complacency.

In this episode, I break down the key steps to reclaiming your health, starting with an honest appraisal of your habits. Discover why ultra-processed foods and refined sugars are sabotaging your progress and learn how simple changes—like writing down what you eat—can lead to lasting transformation. You don’t need a fad diet; you need a sustainable journey of intentionality and small, consistent steps.

We’ll also explore the profound impact of exercise on mental and physical health, from combating insulin resistance to reducing risks of dementia. It’s time to redefine what aging looks like. Whether you're just starting with short walks or ready to lift heavy weights, I’ll guide you through making movement and nutrition a part of your daily life. Together, let’s ensure your next third is your best third.
