Episode 373: Your Body's Dashboard: Understanding the Metrics That Drive Health w/ Laini Gray


Listen Later

Looking to graduate from the "weight-is-everything" school of health tracking? Join me and my wonderful colleague, Laini Gray, for an eye-opening conversation about why your bathroom scale shouldn't be your only health advisor (because, let's face it, it's not exactly giving you the full story). We're diving into the metrics that actually matter for women in midlife – and trust me, it's about so much more than the number staring back at you every morning.

In this episode, we'll explore:

  • Why breaking up with your scale might be the healthiest relationship decision you make this year
  • The real metrics that tell you how your body's doing (hint: it's not the scale)
  • How to track your health without becoming a spreadsheet enthusiast
  • Simple ways to measure progress that don't involve pinching, weighing, or crying in the bathroom

Whether you're feeling frustrated with traditional health measurements or just ready for a more sensible approach to monitoring your wellness, this conversation will give you practical, evidence-based alternatives to the old "weight and wait" game. Get ready to discover what really matters in your health journey – no obsessive tracking required!
