Hello and welcome to this episode of the ESG Fitness Podcast. This episode is a little bit

spicy and it's all meant with a lot of love but it's more just an observation. I actually

thought this would be quite unpopular but when I put it on Instagram it wasn't and I was like

oh that's actually quite a bit of shoring. I thought I'd probably get quite a lot of heat for it anyway what I want to talk about is a truth that really nobody talks

about enough and that is that now the default of modern life and modern society is being unhealthy

unhappy uninspired. Being the average in the UK means that you

are overweight, inactive and constantly your dieting and that's not, you know, that's not

my opinion on things like that is what the statistics show. And it also shows that most

people are unhappy and it also shows that most people are unhappy and it also shows that

most people are either in debt or have less than a thousand pounds of saving. And I'm going

to talk mostly about the health and fitness side of things because that's what I know most about.

But being average in the UK or behaving like the quote unquote normal person in the UK means drinking too much on the weekend, eating primarily ultra processed foods, lulling yourself into this false sense of security that actually that's fine because that's what everybody does and it's the norm.

But the things that we normalise are causing us harm, right?

So we normalise poor sleep, we normalize being chronically stressed,

we normalised always being busy, we normalize lack of exercise,

not having time to exercise, and that being a legitimate excuse not to do anything.

We normalize poor diet, low energy, low mood,

hating your job, constantly complaining, unhappy relationships. And it might be the norm,

you know, and actually it is the norm, right, but doesn't mean that it's harmless. You just don't

realize it because it's this gradual impact and it's completely accepted by society

right there's this like social acceptance of all of these behaviors and that's what's so scary about it

because then you wake up one day and you're like wow this isn't the life that I wanted to live you
