Today's episode continues the season of health and wellness and this episode I believe is one that many of us can use some help in. I imagine many of you have set new goals for your health and your body. This episode is one of the most important for your health and immune system, that is our gut health. Our gut is at the foundation of all health and once we restore, repair, and rebuild our gut microbiome it will influence all aspects of our health. So whatever health setbacks you are having or symptoms you are experiencing, I believe this episode can help set you on the right path. My guest, Dr. Vincent M.

As I have said in the previous episodes, if your health and wellness isn't at the top of the list of things to dial in this year then you are really selling yourself short. I believe that if we want to accomplish our goals, feel our best, and have the energy to do what we love… we must nurture our health and wellbeing first. It's a non- negotiable, because eventually the signs and signals your body is telling you will only get louder and no longer will you be able to ignore it. In today's episode, we focus on the importance of questioning why you don't feel your very best and exactly what you can do to get clear and actionable advice and direction of how to change that. Welcome Adam Woolard on the show. He is a biohacking advocate and hormone health expert working with Blokes & Joi to help others reclaim their physical and mental wellness through peptide therapy, personalized supplementation, and holistic lifestyle tools.

We are still in the first month of the New Year, which I wanted to keep our focus on health and wellness, because I believe this should be one of the cornerstones we put our attention towards. Not just because it's the beginning of a New Year, but because truly when you feel your best it reflects in ALL areas of your life. This episode though is especially for the ones that find it hard to keep a routine, that maybe fitness and nutrition is one area your struggle in maintaining, or simply for that person that is committed to making this year the year you take ownership of your health and wellbeing. My guest today is Carl Daikler, the co-founder and CEO of BODi, formerly Beachbody, a pioneer in at-home fitness and nutrition for over 25 years. A direct marketing expert turned wellness entrepreneur, Carl created the breakout hit :08 Minute Abs before building one of the industry's most comprehensive libraries of fitness and nutrition content, including over 140 unique programs including P90X and Insanity from world-renowned "Super Trainer" experts. Under his leadership, BODi evolved from Beachbody, reflecting a shift from appearance-focused goals to holistic health. He spearheaded innovations like Shakeology®, one of the leading superfood supplements, and built one of the earliest social-influencer and affiliate networks to drive growth and community support. In today's episode we discuss: How Microdose fitness can be a game changer for those with time constraints Setting up a routine for success in fitness The role nutrition plays and hacks to help you with the subtle changes that make a big difference Lifestyle changes that are essential for long-term health benefits Making our goals visible to help maintain focus and motivation How to develop consistency Overcoming personal struggles in maintaining a workout routine For full show notes and episode resources head to: https://ericalippy.com/carl-daikeler/ Watch episode on YouTube Guest: Carl Daikeler: Website Instagram, BODi Instagram Get start with BODi programs Shakeology supplements Follow me on Social Media: Listen on YouTube Your Host: @ericalippy Podcast: @passionlovepursuit PASSION LOVE PURSUIT PODCASTS: https://ericalippy.com/the-podcast/
