In this episode, I discuss the difference in saying, "weight loss," and "fat loss," and consider how media is linked with health and wellness. Corporate media is junk food, and they're selling us stories. Why did people go after Monsanto, but not CNN? Why do we fear change, and can we ever become better versions of ourselves?

Like having a few drinks now and then but aren't sure how to do it and maintain calorie goals? Here's a few tips and tricks. Always drink responsibly and designate a driver. Get an Uber or a Lyft. Walk. Or get a cab, if you're desperate. Someone out there loves you and depends on you, and a lot can change in an instant. And please note, this is no way intended to be any kind of clinical advice. If you’re struggling with any kind of addiction or addictive behaviors, you are encouraged to seek professional services and treatment. There is no shame in asking for help and leaning on services that specialize in meeting a unique need. Our thoughts, prayers, and well wishes are with anyone battling alcoholism, or any other addiction.

In many ways, we've shifted from inculcation to responsibility, to inoculation from responsibility. If you're trying to lose weight, weighing yourself regularly isn't optional, it's necessary. So, what happens when you refuse follow rules, or at least, helpful advice? Why do we spend so much time arguing about rules and reviewing things, and increasingly less time playing the game? The fairest truth of all is unpredictability, and it might be that your best bet is to play the game to the best of your ability, regardless of what the referees do.

Boredom is a gift. In a world that seems to constantly demand your attention, give yourself the gift of boredom. It means you lead an otherwise fulfilling life. And boredom actually gives your brain time to process, slow down, and daydream.
