On this episode, I have a really important question for you: How old are you really?Not your chronologic age (how many years you have been on this earth)....but your cellular age that is determined at the genetic level. The cellular age is the actual age of your cells. This is independent of how many years you have been alive on this earth. Your cellular age can be younger, older or exactly your chronologic age and is measured by your telomere length (the protective ends of your chromosomes).And chronic stress (a...

Drop the Labels
On this episode, I teach you about how damaging labels can be. Now when I say labels, you may be thinking about those sticky labels such as on jars. But I want to focus on a different type of label, those are the labels that you create with your words….we can call them “word labels”. And just like the sticky labels, the longer you hold onto word labels, the “stickier they become” and the harder they are to remove. Your brain’s default mechanism is based on primitive thinking of taking short cuts…using all or none thin...

The Resolution-Stress Cycle
On this episode we talk about how damaging making resolutions can be, how resolutions dump you into what I call “the resolution-stress cycle” which set you up for failure, and what you can do instead to turn that all around. A resolution is a finite expectation, a hard and fast goal usually related to something that you want to fix about yourself or your life. Resolutions focus on a specific concrete outcome….an endpoint….requiring perfection….frequently out of reach and unattainable. Research shows that over 80% of New Year's resolutions fail.....so making resolutions ultimately set you up for failu...
