    Send us a text If you are starting the New Year focused on getting healthy, losing weight, and finally feeling consistent with your wellness habits, this episode is for you. In this episode, Jenn Trepeck shares her refreshingly simple approach to health and wellness, inspired by her book Uncomplicating Wellness. With years of experience as a health coach, Jenn helps listeners cut through the noise of online wellness trends and influencer advice, and instead focus on what actually works long term. Rather than extreme diets or constantly starting over, Jenn explains how to build sustainable habits that support weight loss, energy, digestion, and mental clarity without overwhelm. This conversation is especially helpful for anyone who feels confused by conflicting nutrition advice or stuck in an all or nothing cycle with food and health. What You Will Learn in This Episode • How to simplify your wellness routine without sacrificing results • Why nutrient diversity matters more than restriction for weight loss • The role minerals and electrolytes play in hydration and metabolism • How to define personal wellness goals that actually fit your life • Common wellness myths and why trendy health advice often backfires • How elimination diets work and when they may or may not be helpful • Daily wellness habits that support fat loss and energy • Mindset shifts that help prevent stress eating • How to navigate the New Year without the start over mentality Why This Episode Matters for the New Year The New Year often comes with pressure to reset, detox, or overhaul everything at once. Jenn encourages a different approach rooted in clarity, consistency, and self trust. Instead of chasing trends, you will learn how to support your body in a way that feels realistic and empowering.
