Mindset Mastery: Stop Giving 100%

Image: Sarah Nilson Art Hello Reader, I’m going to ask you to try something a little controversial this week: stop giving 100% to everything you do. I know, I know—your manager, your director, your friends, even your family would probably flip if they heard me say that. Because you’re the person who always gives it all. You’re the one who shows up when no one else does. The one who raises your hand to volunteer when everyone else has already packed up and gone home. You’re the one who can...

Ever notice how a bad night’s sleep can make everything feel harder? From tackling your to-do list to lacing up your tennis shoes, for many, restful nights become harder to come by thanks to shifting hormones, busy schedules, and life’s daily demands. But here’s the good news: moving your body during the...

Hello Reader, Two weeks ago, I caught myself doing something I tell everyone else not to do: beating myself up. As hard as I tried to be consistent with my morning writing, I got distracted not just one day but three days in a row. For me, it's really hard when I don't meet my personal goals. So this week, let’s talk about those moments when you beat yourself up for not following through on your plans, especially when it’s because you’ve given your time away to someone else. If you missed...

In recent years, I’ve noticed subtle changes in how we approach our nutrition or even weight loss. Decades ago, you’d mostly hear the usual “eat less, move more." And while this advice isn’t necessarily bad, it doesn’t always translate well when you factor in things like gut health, hormones, the types of...

It seems like plant-based eating is everywhere these days. And that's for a good reason! A well-balanced vegetarian or vegan diet has been linked to lower risks of heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and certain cancers. But not all plant-based diets are created equal. For women in particular, it’s crucial to...

Hello Reader, It’s late July—the perfect moment for a midyear mindset shift. If you’re glancing at your calendar and feeling that sinking realization that 2025 is halfway gone, this message is for you. Maybe you’ve missed more gym workouts than you’d like to admit—not because you don’t care, but because you’re still staying late at work even when you don’t have to. Weekends feel like a blur of laundry, errands, and helping everyone else—but never yourself. The meal prep plan you promised...

As we move through our middle year (you know, the ones that start with fours and fives!), we can't help but become more aware of the changes happening in our bodies and minds. Forgetting a name here, misplacing a phone there... It’s easy to worry that these small slips are signs of something bigger. But...

Hello Reader, There was a time in my life when all I dreamed of was this: a few hours each week to sit down and write a really good newsletter for someone like you: a person who would open up every issue and feel more motivated, more inspired, and more empowered by something I said. A newsletter for the person struggling to fix their diabetes numbers before their next appointment. The person who can't figure out the difference between Omega-3 and Omega-9. Or maybe just someone who's burned...

We all know that wellness fads come and go. In the fast-moving world of health and wellness, it’s easy to get swept up in the latest trends, but some standouts have staying power. Cold plunging, sauna therapy, and intermittent fasting aren’t just social media sensations; they’re gaining traction among men...
