Summary

Liz Moody has spent years asking the world's top researchers one deceptively simple question: what actually works? As the author of 100 Ways to Change Your Life, she's built a career on turning cutting-edge science into habits real people can stick to — without the overwhelm, 17-step routines, or the guilt. Molly and Emese sit down with Liz for a conversation that cuts through the noise on pretty much everything — burnout, brain health, the friendship science reshaping how we think about connection, and why discipline is one of the most overrated ideas in wellness. From the morning walk that resets your entire circadian rhythm to the science of why physical touch is more important for your health than almost anything you eat — plus a three-step neurological trick for rewiring your brain toward happiness. If wellness has started to feel like one more thing on your to-do list, this episode is the reset you didn't know you needed. A Sony Music Entertainment production.

0:37.3	What I really appreciate is that Quince works directly with safe, ethical factories and cuts

0:43.1	clothing at a price that actually makes sense. The 100% European linen feels substantial but still
0:48.4	breathable. The cotton poplin is crisp and holds its shape. The gauze is soft without feeling flimsy.
0:55.1	The stitching, the fit,

1:05.8	but still feels looks, and it didn't cost what I thought quality cashmere would. Right now,
1:10.6	go to Quins.com slash lipstick for free shipping and 365-day returns.
