Taking care of ourselves doesn't always mean overhauling everything; it can start with one small choice to finally put our health first. That's exactly what Tracy Slavik did after years of struggling with PCOS, weight, and hormonal ups and downs. She opened up about how she lost 100 pounds, regained her energy, and started trusting her body again with my Keto Green 16 program. Her story is such a reminder that real change is possible, even when it feels out of reach.

You'll also hear from Angela Crump, who shares how she found her way back to joy after heartbreaking losses. Grief shook her world, but choosing self-care became her way of healing. She talks honestly about what it looked like to put her health back on the list and how those choices gave her life a new kind of vibrancy.

Both Tracy and Angela show us that when we take care of ourselves, everything else in life begins to shift too. This episode is full of real-life lessons, little mindset shifts, and encouragement that will meet you right where you are.

Memorable Quotes:

"My health became my priority. And I think at that point, too, I was just tired of being overweight. And once I started losing the weight, and not only were other people noticing, but I was just noticing how much better I felt." [00:09:07] – Tracy Slavik

"And so, for me, your program has been an absolute answer to prayer. And I would say that after a good two years of investing in myself, and starting with your Keto Green 16, listening to your podcast." [00:37:18] – Angela Crump
