Society's Messaging vs. Society's Practices

Whether you have plans to light 2025 on fire or just chill, Michelle and Brad are here to usher the New Year in with realism, laughter and ayahuasca. Or maybe not ayahuasca. 

In today's climate, we're inundated with opinions. From politics, to health, money and parenting, they're everywhere. So often, they're even disguised as "facts". Why is it when we're presented with an opinion that we don't share, we're put off by them? Michelle and Brad dissect the topic of opinion versus fact and the ways to present and receive opinions as just that, an opinion. With today's online media landscape and an election just around the corner, this is a great episode to tune in to in order to keep your sanity and relationships in tact.

In today's episode, Michelle & Brad talk about the concept of a relaxed woman and explore what that looks like in practice. What does the "relaxed woman" embody? Is it possible in today's society? Does she even exist?If you've ever wished you had a more relaxed and balanced approach to life, you won't want to miss this week's episode. 

Michelle & Brad are kicking this season off talking about the concept of "LFG" (Let's Fu^&ing Go!) in the context of health, wellness and yes, weight loss. LFG is about getting your health back on track and away from all the internet noise. It's not sexy. It's not flashy. And there's nothing anyone can really sell you on.  But it works. It's all about getting back to basics and putting in the work. Michelle walks through exactly what has worked for her, what's been a struggle and how to keep your mindset healthy though it all. If you've struggled with "doing all the right things" and still aren't feeling your best, this episode is for you. Think of it as a new set of training wheels to get you where you want to go.Today's episode is brought to you by Pique, makers of some of Michelle's most beloved teas and beverages meticulously crafted for our health and wellness.

Here's the deal. When we give too many shi^%s about too many things it can feel at best, overwhelming, and at it's worst anxiety inducing and paralyzing. In today's episode, Michelle and Brad identify the reasons why we give a sh&^ and  talk about how we can care about something without internalizing it in an unhealthy manner. 

That's right. They're talking Taylor Swift! Take a listen to this fun episode where Michelle and Brad talk all about T Swizzle and what we can learn from her and her accomplishments. Taylor Swift's extraordinary career has been the result of talent, diligence and belief. Brad and Michelle extract just a few of the lessons we can glean from her and talk about how we can apply those concepts to our own lives. 

What exactly is intuition and do all of us have it? How do we recognize intuition in an overthinking mind? Should we always listen to our intuition?We all know what intuition means but are we actually tapping into it and using it for our highest good? These are just few of the questions Brad & Michelle explore in today's episode about, you guessed it, intuition.If you'd like to join us in our 30-day AG1 challenge and support Get Wellthy, you can do so here!

Does it ever seem like the work you're putting into your workouts doesn't line up with the results you're seeing? Does it ever feel like everyone else has all the time in the world to fit in a workout, except for you? Do you feel what once worked for your body is no longer effective?If you answered, "yes" to any of those questions, this episode is for you. Michelle & Brad talk about how to move forward when you get into a workout rut. And don't worry, it's not just the same, "wake up earlier", "try harder" that we've become accustomed from hearing from the fitness industry. Instead, it's a realistic, approachable conversation on identifying what's not working, how to pivot and how to stay with it. 

Do you ever feel like the messaging we hear in society doesn't align with the reality of what's actually happening in society? We're told not to stress, but live in a time where we're inundated with stressors. Mental health is an important topic, but are we actually practicing what we preach from the top down? And don't even get started with health and dieting messaging which can be full of conflicting narratives.Join  Michelle and Brad as they dissect this topic and talk about ways to evaluate outside messaging and distractions while practicing your own value system. Today's episode is brought to you by AG1.  AG1 is a daily nutritional drink loaded with vitamins, minerals, pre and probiotics, as well as adaptogens.
