Welcome, I'm your host, Greg McEwan. I'm the author of Two New York Times Best

Sellers, Essentialism and Effortless, and this is the newly minted Greg McEwan podcast.

I'm here for this journey to learn how to understand each other.

Okay, let's start with some questions. Are there people in your life who create unhealthy friction for you?

Are there people who, when you even think about them, it just raises your blood pressure.

You know what I'm talking about? If we had to put a word on it, we'd say like the villains in the story of your life.

Now, what if by the end of this podcast, you could reverse that effect if you could learn how to invert in the words of Effortless.

The effect that these people have on you. But that's such a serious benefit because the cost is so high.

Instead of them causing you unhappiness, they could help you create and trigger a happier life, a more meaningful life.

Well, let's get to it.

As always, my ask for you is that you take on the role, not just of listener to today's episode, but also of teacher that you commit to teaching somebody else within 24 to 48 hours.

Watch you learn on this podcast because that can be life-changing. To help with this subject, I have invited the really wonderful Dr. Chatterjee to join us.

This episode is sponsored by Factor Meals. The season is a bit ironic, I think, because on the one hand, it's a time that can be peaceful,

rejuvenative, inspirational as it helps us to think about higher, better things. And at the same time, it can become reactive, it can be the busiest time of the year, and in that intensity.

It can be hard to eat in a healthy way, and perhaps you're looking for a way to be able to eat a nutritious, flavorful meal, despite being stretched a bit too thin.

Factor is America's number one ready-to-eat meal delivery service, so they can help you eat well for breakfast, lunch, and dinner with chef-prepared, dietician-approved, ready-to-eat meals delivered straight to your door.

So the advantages you can save time while still staying on track with the healthy lifestyle that you're aspiring to the rest of the year, while still tackling the most important things in this season to do.

So if you're looking for a more effortless way to be able to cross meal prepping off your list, Factor can be a useful solution, because you get to skip the meal planning, the grocery shopping, the chopping prepping, cleaning up,

and you get Factor's fresh, never-frozen meals. They're just delivered to your door, they're ready in just two minutes, so all you have to do is heat and enjoy.

It's high-quality, delicious meals for the holidays, you get to choose from 35 plus chef-crafted meals every week, and that supports a healthy lifestyle.

They have a few different options, calorie smart, vegan and veggie, if this is the path that you've chosen, protein plus, and many other wholesome options.

And I know for myself anyway, it isn't just about dinner, and Factor isn't just about dinner.
