Are you tired of the outdated health advice surrounding women's bone health? In this episode, I interview award-winning journalist and author of The New Rules of Women's Health, Meghan Rabbitt.

Did you know that small changes in behavior and belief systems can transform your health for good? But where do you start? In today's episode, I'm joined by the incredible Carrie Lupoli, a certified nutritionist, health coach, and behavioral specialist. We explore three powerful factors affecting our health: Blood Sugar, Behaviors, and Beliefs. These three "BS's" are often overlooked, yet addressing them can transform your health, strengthen your bones, and boost overall wellness.

Carrie shares simple, practical steps to overcome these blocks and explains how they're crucial not only for our physical health but also for our mental and emotional well-being. Carrie's passion for health is contagious, and her approach empowers you to take control of your health from the inside out.

Whether you're dealing with bone health challenges or just looking to optimize your health, Carrie's insights will empower you to make real, sustainable changes.

"We have to stop the scroll, stop trying to find the quick fix or the next big thing, and recognize the BS that's out there is not helping us. It's just noise, and it confuses us more. The BS that really matters is understanding blood sugar, getting a hold of your belief systems, and recognizing that behavioral science is the key to you actually doing, changing, and understanding yourself for the long term." ~ Carrie Lupoli
