I learned so much in this chat with Coach Calie – about managing stress, my diet, about giving myself grace, about focusing on the full picture.

Let me know what you liked about this episode.

Here’s some highlights from our discussion:

- We have over complicated our lives.

And focusing on habits has a huge impact on our lives       

- Typically, when we think of health, we think "doctors". Doctors focus on specific areas and usually prescribe medicines. But health coaches focus on lifestyle and daily habits. They look beyond the symptoms and focus on root cause. They empower the patients to improve their own lives.

- The way we think of ourselves is a very important part of staying healthy.

- Teens are under a lot of pressure. Too much information from social media etc. Take time to think who you want to be.

- Focus on yourself and stop comparing yourself to other people.

- Stress can be different types – some of which can be reduced by looking at your routine.

Important actions:

- Never skip meals

- Eat well-rounded meals - Pick plants on your

plate at every meal. And make sure to eat fiber. 

The occasional bag of chips or Starbucks is OK –

but as long as your body has good nutrition first.

- Calm down before eating using simple box breathing
