One of the three pillars of the Emergent Human podcast is optimizing
health. Part of my own process in doing so is being a member of an
organization known as Lifeforce. I joined Lifeforce after reading the book “Life Force” by Tony Robbins and Peter Diamandis in order to get the support I needed to take my health to the next level. I am happy to announce that Lifeforce is now a show sponsor.

I would like to welcome Amiel Handlesman on today show to discuss his work on embodying the self-authoring mind in everyday conversations.
Amiel helps leaders navigate complexity and grow as human beings. His clients use new conversation microhabits to make clear commitments, deliver what they promise, and do this with more ease. As a writer and speaker, Amiel frames complex challenges like democracy, climate change, diversity, and “race" as practice fields for self-authorship. He has written five books including Practice Greatness, Reimagining American Identity, and How to be an Anti-race Antiracist. His free online mini-course, Nine Ways to Make the Ask, helps you use the Enneagram to make skillful requests. Amiel holds an M.B.A. from the University of Michigan and a B.A. in Public Policy Studies from Duke University. He lives in Ann Arbor, Michigan with his wife and two sons.

Gina Worful on Creating Health from a Cellular Level
The Emergent Human Presents:
Gina Worful on Creating Health from a Cellular Level
Gina's Info:
Personal empowerment is my passion! The greatest challenge to long lasting health is navigating the overwhelm and noise and breaking through self sabotage.
My greatest strength is empowering people to know and trust their body from the inside - out. We might do this through creating a tailor made nutrition program based on their unique biochemistry or give them the method to eliminate food cravings and break through self sabotage.
From this place of connection and trust with their body, health becomes effortless and empowering.
My innovative courses teach people how to:
- create health from a cellular level, instead of band-aiding symptoms
- trust their body's wisdom to make food choices, instead of using a restrictive diet
- easily overcome stress eating and food cravings, without using willpower
- create confidence and self trust that will last a lifetime
Expertise: registered dietitian, weight loss success, personal empowerment coach, mindful eating, intuitive eating, health optimization and performance, food cravings coach

Customer Reviews
A must listen to podcast
I’ve known Michael for over 10 years now. One the most genuine and incredible people I know. Very in depth podcasts, thought provoking.
Post-Conventional Lifestyle Design
I stumbled on Michael’s podcast because of our many overlapping interests. Now, when I see that he’s exploring something I’m unfamiliar with, it’s a good bet that I’ll find it interesting as well.
Great show and great topics!
Michael is a fantastic host and interviewer. I highly recommend you give this show a listen, and discover some new and interesting guests.
