My 3 non-negotiable health habits

Keywords
health habits energy focus blood sugar protein workouts routines

Feel like you’re doing all the health things but still hitting that 3pm crash? 

Same. For years, I chased every gadget, trend, and supplement that promised more energy and better focus. But after a whole lot of trial and error (and more than a few raw sugar incidents — yes, really), I’ve finally landed on three simple health habits that actually work. 

In this mini episode, I share: 

  • Why your Sunday sleep-in might be wrecking your Monday 
  • The surprising psychology behind skipping workouts (on purpose!) 
  • What 20–30g of protein per meal has to do with your blood sugar and focus 
  • How to stick to health goals without falling into the “what the hell” trap 

If you’re done with overcomplicated routines and ready to build habits that are both science-backed and actually doable, this one’s for you. 

Key Quotes: 

“Varying your wake time is basically giving yourself mini jet lag every weekend.” 

“Planned flexibility helps you stay consistent — not the other way around.”  

“Protein is my secret weapon against blood glucose chaos.”
