The 3 most common questions you are not asking
In this episode, I am going to address the top 3 common concerns most of you have but feel uncomfortable saying out loud when it comes to weight loss or working on changing your body composition.
My concern is, that although many of you have a certain nutritional goal, you will end up deciding not to do anything about it, just because you are not aware of the answers to these three concerns.
So I’m here to help. And I hope this episode will eliminate a certain objection you may have when thinking of working towards a nutritional goal.

Sleep, Weight & Health
Why is sleep important? Can sleep deprivation affect our weight?
In this episode, I talk about the importance of sleep and provide 10 things you could do to improve your sleep. Why should you look into that, you may ask?
Because sleep is fundamental to human health and well-being and impacts every aspect of our lives. It is crucial for physical health, cognitive function, emotional well-being, productivity, and performance.
I cannot overstate the significance of getting good quality and quantity of sleep.
