Get Wellthy Episode 26: Why Trendy Diets Alone Won’t Lead to a Lasting Wellness

Anyone else tired of trying diet after diet after watching others succeed, only to find nothing has truly changed? Especially long term?

You’re not alone. And also, you’re not broken…the diet industry is, and in season two we are talking a lot more about this.

If you log onto social media, you will find an influx of “before and afters,” highlight reels, and a host of different diets. And today Michelle and Brad talk about the dangers of taking these things too much to heart, EVEN from the self proclaimed “experts.” 

The true key to wellness is that there isn’t one true key and that’s why you’re here. It’s time we start letting go of the black and white ideologies and disordered ways of living and start leaning into what truly makes us well. Spoiler alert, it’s not just about the food. Listen today to find out more and start living a life that leads to true wellness.

Episode Highlights: 

  • A welcome back to season 2 from Michelle and…STILL temporary co-host Brad.
  • Four components Michelle and Brad feel are not being addressed in the diet industry.
  • A discussion on whether we should eliminate complete food groups or not.
  • Michelle and Brad have an entertaining conversation about the Real Housewives and French foods.
  • How social media plays into all of this and why we need perspective when viewing it.
  • The importance of knowing there is no magic pill and one size fits all when it comes to health.

Obsessed. Let’s talk...🛌🥱 In early 2020 I Obsessed. Let’s talk...🛌🥱In early 2020 I polled my audience because we were on the hunt for a new mattress. You overwhelmingly recommended @avocadogreenbrands. And then we all got locked down and I put our mattress hunt on hold. I bought a cheapie mattress online instead since we couldn’t try things out and none of us had any clue what was happening. Big mistake. HUGE. It was the worst mattress ever. So earlier this year we decided it was time to get a PROPER GROWN UP MATTRESS and went with @avocadogreenbrands.I’m not going to lie, I was a little nervous about ordering online and not being able to “test” it in person. I’m here to tell you it’s one of the best things in my life. It is THE MOST comfortable mattress I have ever laid my pretty little face on. And Brad agrees.Not to mention is green and environmentally friendly.Legit, slipping into bed at night feels like a hug from heaven and I can’t even handle it. I told Brad that, God forbid, we ever divorce I’m taking the mattress with me. So, if you are on the hunt go with @avocadogreenbrands. We went with the Avocado Green mattress with pillow top. And I just looked and they’re having an early cyber/Black Friday Sale. Anyways. Obsessed and eagerly awaiting my next nap. ✌🏼
Gluten-Free Cranberry Bars Personally, one of my Gluten-Free Cranberry BarsPersonally, one of my fave desserts ever is pumpkin pie. I wish it was a year ‘round thing. BUT! If you aren’t pumpkin crazy, not into pies and need something DIFFERENT to bring to Thanksgiving this year, let it be this. Think a lemon bars more festive friend. In fact, it’s great for a Christmas too. It’s available now to my community a the link in my bio. ❤️
