Episode notes
Forties Are A Make-Or-Break Decade
- The 40s are a critical inflection where habits either improve or worsen due to increased responsibilities and stress.
- Integrate healthy behaviors during your busiest years so they become sustainable when life eases up.
Prioritize Diet And Sleep First
- Fix diet and sleep before obsessing over exercise because they deliver the largest returns for most clients.
- Identify each person's biggest constraint (e.g., night eating, boredom snacking) and remove it first.
Use A Break To Reassess Alcohol
- Try an alcohol break to objectively assess its effects; short-term abstinence revealed major cognitive and energy improvements for Dan Go.
- Reserve alcohol for rare, meaningful social bonding rather than habitual use.
