Welcome to Feel Better, Live More Bite-size, your weekly dose of positivity and optimism to get you ready for the weekend. Today's clip is from episode 506 of the podcast, which was a solo episode which I recorded to celebrate the launch. Off my sixth book, Make Change That Lasts, 9 Simple Ways to Break Free from the Habits That Hold You Back. In this clip, I share a powerful idea that could help you make meaningful changes that actually last. Idea number one.

Trust yourself. What do I mean when I say trust yourself? Well, I think perhaps the most useful way to look at this is to examine the state of the world when it comes to health.

More podcasts, more books, more Instagram posts, more online blogs, yet despite this increase in information,

Our physical health is getting worse and our mental well-being is declining. And for the last few years I've been thinking, what's going on? We've got more knowledge than ever before, yet worse health outcomes. So why is that? Well, of course, there are some external factors that we need to think about, the food environment.

That is the first couple of minutes. The rest is $1.
