From Andy:
Katie in one word - "amazing". She has intentionally set up her life (and her family's life) to be in alignment with who she is and what she values. To do that, she's had to make some really significant changes and sacrifices, and it hasn't always been comfortable or easy, but she and her family and kids are already starting to reap the rewards of her efforts. Her story is a reminder to me of the importance of aligning our lives and our actions with what we truly value.
During the podcast, we cover so many important health, life, and well-being topics there are way too many to list. Suffice it to say you should grab a set of headphones, sharpen up your pencil, and take out your yellow pad to be sure you don't miss anything while listening.
Enjoy!

One of the best things I’ve ever done is to get prepared, Whole Life Challenge-compliant meals delivered to me during the week. It makes my life so much simpler, eliminates any questions I might have about healthy food for those meals, and reduces the number of decisions I need to make each day.
I highly suggest trying it out. It was a game-changer for me. The Good Kitchen will deliver pre-made, chef prepared, WLC-compliant meals (breakfast, lunch, and/or dinner) right to your front door via FedEx.
