In this episode, recorded several weeks into January, I share reflections on the new year after taking a break since mid-December.
What does an ideal morning look like?What are surefire self-care tactics?What is a movement contingency plan?What does a mental health meal look like?
We hear a lot of January chatter about eating differently and exercising. Instead of getting consumed by messaging from the socials and diet culture, today's episode offers you an opportunity to reflect and plan so you may be kind to your future
This episode is split into two sections, with today covering the first four questions and the remaining next week.
Today's questions include:And because I won't ask you to do anything I won't do, I share my answers to each of these.
This episode covers the first four questions, with the remaining to be discussed in the next episode.

In this mini-episode, I discuss three important mindset shifts for the holiday season, especially when spending time with family. Learn why we should rethink how we talk about exercise (hint: it's not about 'having to'), stop attaching moral value to food choices, and embrace traditional recipes without feeling the need to 'healthify' everything.

Jeff Ash talks with us today about tackling diet culture among men. He also touches on the role of structured eating, and finding balance without obsession. This is a must-listen for understanding this crucial topic of how our culture (and our churches) impacts men differently than women. We all do life with males (husbands, sons, brothers, co-workers etc.) so tune in to learn ways to support them foster healthy mindsets around food, health and body image.

Today is a very special episode: I'm walking you down memory lane and sharing standout lessons I've learned during the last 50 years. Note, this list of 50 things shared in this solo episode aren't all encompassing. Most of the items I've included are from the last decade.
Reflecting on these lessons has been such a good reminder that life truly will always be a classroom and that it's never too late to learn really important things!
What to expect in today's episode:
1. A list of 50 things I've learned about God, health, rest, food and so.much.more.
2. Voice memos from our community, sharing things they wished they would have learned before hitting the big 5-0 and also some messages from the younger listeners, sharing their bucket list items to reach before turning 50.
3. Information about a fun challenge!
Celebrate with me!Listen to the mini episodes over the next few days and participate with me by doing the small challenges I share about in each mini episode. Take a pic and tag me @gracedhealth and use the hashtag #5DaysTo50 so I can follow along as you do the challenges. Thank you for celebrating with me!
Thank you for giving me the space to share this milestone birthday. And a special thank you to those of you who answered the call to leave voice mails.
