Like Julia Child says, “As you get older, you shouldn't waste time drinking bad wine.” Today on the show, we're honored to have Amy's mom, Sally Stiles, here to talk about exercise, alcohol, and how to strike the balance of enjoying both! But can she and Tray convince Amy that not all alcohol is bad? Amy gets the ball rolling on this debate with the benefits of exercise and the different types you can choose from, before Sally takes the floor to share her love of wine and the enjoyment that comes with a great tasting experience. Hear how, with discipline and discernment, you can help your body by making informed choices regarding preservatives and sugar content, and why it really pays to pay more! Plus, you'll hear some special childhood memories that show where Amy gets her can-do attitude and tenacity from. There's nothing like a mother's insight, and, combined with wine expertise and a balance-orientated mindset, this episode might just be the thing that changes Amy's mind! Tune in now for another great family discussion!

“[Exercise] is almost free insurance. Because, if you keep yourself healthy, guess what? You're not going to the doctor.” — Sally Styles [0:05:02]

“There isn't necessarily a right way or a wrong way to exercise, everybody has their philosophy of what's better. It's all subjective to your body and what you enjoy doing. It has to be something that is enjoyable.” — @amy_cassels [0:17:26] 

“You do have to be disciplined. Just like I'm disciplined for walking, you do have to be disciplined on the wine. But also you do need to drink some good wine.” — Sally Styles [0:26:43]
