What if the key to better health isn’t feeling more motivated to stick to a new protocol or plan - but it’s more about discovering precisely what your body needs? In this episode, Lisa Witherow dives into how self-awareness helps you prioritize health and establish the foundation of true, lasting health. You’ll learn why knowing your body’s unique needs, patterns, and signals is the first step to creating sustainable change and how this understanding can transform every health choice you make.

Lisa unpacks the connection between your mindset, biology and daily habits to help you build a more personalized approach to health. Whether you’re trying to resolve a symptom, prevent an illness or improve your performance, this episode will guide you toward clarity, confidence, and real progress on your health journey.

When progress stalls or health goals feel out of reach, it’s easy to blame outside circumstances—your schedule, your genes, your age, or even other people. But what if blame itself is the biggest obstacle standing in your way? In this episode, we explore how the habit of blaming can keep you stuck, distract you from solutions, and prevent you from tuning into what your body truly needs.

This isn’t about guilt—it’s about awareness and ownership. I’ll walk you through the most common roadblocks people face on their health and performance journey, and how shifting your perspective can uncover opportunities for real progress. If you’re tired of spinning your wheels and ready to reclaim your momentum, this episode will help you get clear, get honest, and get moving in the right direction.
