If you've ever bulldozed through your day on black coffee and determination, ignoring every signal your body sends until you're bent over crippling in a parking garage (literally, in Shantani's case) — this episode is your wake-up call. Chelsea chats with Body Intelligence Coach Shantani Moore about where we learned to ignore our body, why "fine" is the enemy of extraordinary, and how capitalism trained us to ask permission to pee (WTF).

Episode themes:

• Body intelligence vs. wellness overwhelm — Moving from tracking every metric to asking "what does my body actually need?"
• The utility principle — Training your body for life, not likes (and how Earth is your gym!!)
• Environment as everything — Why your nervous system picks up 11 million bits of information per second and why black-box gyms feel like a sad mess of Armani Exchange and broken dreams
• Sleep as non-negotiable — The two-hour cortisol spike rule that changes everything
• Decolonizing wellness — How to interrupt capitalist programming one habit stack at a time
• The "so I can what?" framework — The question that separates aligned action from performative productivity

Final reminder: Your body wasn't made for other people to look at — it was made for you to live an extraordinary life. Shantani reminds us that listening to your body isn't luxury, it's leadership.
