Let’s Talk Integration: The Secret Ingredient to Real Change

Ever catch yourself thinking “that’s interesting” about a wellness tip… and then life gets busy and nothing sticks? You’re not alone. In Episode 009 of The GA Wellness Podcast, I reveal the intentional structure behind every GA Wellness episode and program: the Learn → Try → Become framework.

This simple cycle helps you move from information overload to integration and is how I teach building wellness habits that last. You’ll learn how to create sustainable change, support your nervous system and finally turn good intentions into routines that feel doable, steady and real.

📋 What we covered:

  • The “interesting tip → no habit” problem and why structure matters.
  • Why integration turns knowledge into lived change.
  • My McLaren aha moment (see E003 for the full story).
  • Learn → Try → Become explained, inspired by Knowing Doing, Being.
  • What each phase looks like in real life (and why “Try” is messy on purpose).
  • Brain science: how neuroplasticity (E007) rewires through loops + repetition.
  • Playful experiments that helped me: gym clothes to bed, trialling intermittent fasting.
  • HNSF examples across hydration (E002), nutrition (E003), self-care (E004), and fitness (E005).
  • Your weekly mini-plan: 1 thing you learnt, 1 thing you’ll try, how you’ll notice yourself becoming.
  • Honouring the deeper roots of this framework and weaving them into GA Wellness.

🌟 Key takeaways:

  • Integration is the bridge between learning and becoming.
  • Your brain changes in loops, not leaps so gentle repetition builds ease.
  • The “Try” phase is messy (and that’s the point).
  • HNSF fits any season when you honour your capacity.
  • One tiny, well matched action beats a perfect plan you can’t sustain.
