#25 - Bob Harper's Heart Attack

Can you control your health risk as much as society makes you
think? Probably not. Because... genetics. But you can control
your values, choices, and ultimately your habits.


In this episode, Bernie and I check in on our body kindness
practice to help each other spiral up. We discuss our challenges
with fitting in exercise and how our tricky thought patterns
influence our behaviors. Bernie talks about his "exercise is
punishment" belief and how he's fixing it.


And we have an honest conversation about the very surprising news
that Bob Harper -- the picture of health and wellness (according
to society) had a heart attack. We discuss why it's unfair that
society judges our health based on our appearance and undervalues
the role of genetics. We wish Bob a speedy recovery and I
daydream about Bob becoming a body positive well-being coach!
