Summary

One of the keys to success is allowing yourself to be a beginner. When you give yourself permission to learn new information or strive toward a new goal, it opens up a world of possibilities. Whether your intention is to build strength or eat more whole foods, it all starts with a decision to walk toward a goal with humility and optimism.

On this episode of The Model Health Show, you’re going to hear my interview with Kelsey Heenan on The First Hour Podcast. In this interview, I shared details from the beginning of my health journey and how I balance my health goals with raising a family. I shared what actually helped me transform my health, some mistakes I made along the way, and my tips for fine-tuning your personal nutrition philosophy.

We’re going to discuss some of the most recent data on health outcomes in the US and worldwide, how ultra-processed food is impacting our biology, and why changing the questions you ask yourself can produce radical results. You’re also going to learn about how food impacts your genetics, the importance of tapping into your unique creativity, and so much more. I hope you enjoy this interview!

In this episode you’ll discover:

Why your priorities shift when you’re raising children.
The importance of intentionally creating a healthy culture.
How many Americans have a chronic disease.
Why the rates of type 2 diabetes have skyrocketed.
What nutrigenetics is.
The difference between processed food and ultra-processed food.
What percentage of conventional grain products has glyphosate.
How I shifted from an interest in fitness to a love of overall health.
My personal health story and how I overcame a lifelong diagnosis.
Why changing the questions I was asking changed my life.
The role sound plays in satisfaction.
Why omega 3s are vital for human health.
