Today, we’re taking a step back to see the big picture of what it means to be healthy—not just physically, but as a whole ass person shaped by our environments, experiences, and opportunities.

We get into:

• Social Determinants of Health: The non-medical factors like housing, education, and access to resources that shape well-being.
• Privilege: Understanding the privileges we hold, recognizing barriers others face, and using our agency to create meaningful change—for ourselves and our communities.
• Biopsychosocial Model: Viewing health through the interconnected lenses of biology, psychology, and social environment.

Wellness is more than a 5 AM cold plunge or organic smoothies. It’s about understanding the systems that influence our health, the choices we can make within those systems, and the small, consistent actions that build resilience, self-trust, and joy.

This episode challenges the oversimplified "just do it" narratives in wellness culture and highlights the beauty of incremental growth. Whether you have two minutes to breathe or an hour to move your body, there’s always space to care for yourself and practice agency.

Get in there and give it a listen!
