    Wellness Redefined From Diets to Lifestyle Shifts

    Wellness Redefined From Diets to Lifestyle Shifts

    Have you ever found yourself on the brink of burnout, grappling with the decision to take a step back for your sanity?  This episode is a deep dive into the art of pausing, as my friend Sandy and I open up about the trials left in the wake of COVID-19. We don't just skim the surface; we sink into the grit of physical recuperation, the mental toll, and the financial hurdles that have reshaped our lives. Sandy's resilience shines through as she shares her transformative approach to wellness, moving beyond temporary fixes to a complete lifestyle overhaul.

    Turn the volume up for a conversation that celebrates the often-overlooked power of gratitude in our daily lives. We'll unpack the difference between a fleeting diet and a profound lifestyle change, and how to cultivate a mindset that cherishes moderation in all aspects of living.  Join us as we acknowledge the unspoken heroes of mental health: the moments of stillness, the thoughtful reflection, and the embrace of change for a more fulfilled existence.
