What is going on? I am very grateful at this very moment that of all the

bajillions of podcasts you chose this one to listen to. And I want to talk

about happiness. But in a way that doesn't feel like more pressure, like one more

thing that you have to do right, even to be 10% happier can sound like more

pressure, more expectations. One more thing that you've got to do right. I wanted

to approach this subject in a way that I think is more achievable, less scary,

like doable, doable. Like this is 1%. You can do 1% with just a little teeny tiny bit of effort.

And if you can be just 1% happier by week, not even today, I'm going to give you a full

seven days to be 1% happier. And if you made that a goal to do that every week,

in the next year, you would be 50% happier. Like how amazing would that be? And who knows,

some weeks you might even be more than 1%. Again, no pressure, but that would be a major bonus.

All right, that's what we're going to do today. Let's do it.

At the height of my fitness career, I lived on protein shakes and protein bars. And they may be

gassy and bloated and uncomfortable. And the second I stopped eating those and consuming those

things. I never had gas again. So I was really afraid to try any other protein powders.

On a whim, I recently ordered the chocolate protein powder from Organifi and low and behold,

not surprisingly, no gas. And I don't know if that's an issue for you, but for me it was.

Anyways, I want to share with you my favorite protein shake recipe right now. I take a scoop

of the chocolate protein powder from Organifi. Then I pour in the remainder of my coffee from the

morning because I never drink my whole cup. I pour in the rest of my coffee into the chocolate.

Then I put in a half a banana and two heaping teaspoons of PB2, which is like a powdered peanut butter.

Add ice and blend a little bit of water so you get the perfect consistency.
