Today on the podcast I include the audio from my Healthy Dining Handbook.

This was a paid video course where I walk you through strategies to be able to eat out at restaurants without sacrificing your goals.

Tips and tricks I have picked up along the way which have allowed me to maintain my 95 pound weight loss while still being able to enjoy dinging out with friends and family.

This week we go back to an older video I did about the warning signs or symptoms that you should not take lightly in your health journey. I like to call them symptoms, because that is what they are. Symptoms of a system that is crying out for help and trying to let you know that there is a problem that needs addressing in your diet or lifestyle.

Today, we’re joined by Josh Merritt, a rising “truthful troubadour” in the tradition of Hank Williams and Zach Brown.

We’ll dive into the inspiration behind the songs, the meaning of 206, and the eerie Stanley Hotel connection to his new music video. Josh also shares his personal story of growing up in an area devastated by the drug epidemic in Kentucky.

Josh has two shows in Wisconsin coming up:
