He also discusses the principles of stoicism and how they can be practically applied in daily life. Previous Going Deeper Episodes:Building a Business: Navigating Friendship, Challenges & Growth in PodcastingChoosing Quality Over Quantity (In Most Things) Can Improve WellbeingIronman Battling Brain CancerUnschoolingMy Parent is a HoarderLeaving Corporate for a More Intentional CareerAbout OIiver |Oliver holds a Bachelor in International Business Communication from SDU in Denmark and an executive program from Stanford.

Personal Wellness is NOT About Other People with Cara Clark (EP336)

"Feeling good starts with food. When you eat in a way that nourishes your body, you don’t experience cravings and you don’t feel hungry, restricted, or deprived. You feel satisfied and energized. You begin to crave the food that makes you feel good. As you begin to feel better from the inside, your mind becomes clearer. You start to feel hope, and that feeling of hope opens up all kinds of possibilities for your health and your life." - Cara Clark Joining me today is renowned nutritionist and wellness educator, Cara Clark. From advising A-list celebrities to guiding Olympic athletes, Cara has helped her clients feel better in their bodies by moving away from “dieting” and instead understanding the connection between what we eat and how we feel. In this episode, we dive into various topics such as limiting information consumption, regulating blood sugar, navigating indulgences (while maintaining self-awareness), understanding disordered eating, embracing movement that resonates with you, and much more.-------------------------------Our Sponsors:* Check out Gobble: https://gobble.com/MINIMALIST* Check out Happy Mammoth and use my code MINIMALIST for a great deal: happymammoth.com* Check out Ritual : https://ritual.com/MINSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/minimalist-moms-podcast2093/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
