What does it really take to prioritize your well-being?

We love to picture wellness as spa days, green juices, and long walks on the beach—but the truth is, real self-care is work. In this episode, Amber Cabral unpacks what it means to live well when it’s not easy.

She dives into the mental health struggles of YouTuber Mr. Beast, who pushes himself to exhaustion for success, and shares an inspiring story of a friend who transformed her health through sheer commitment. Amber also explores why speaking up for yourself, embracing change, and unlearning bad habits all take effort—but are worth it.

If you’ve ever felt stuck between wanting to do better and not knowing where to start, this episode is for you. Listen now and take the first step toward real, lasting wellness.
