Welcome to the You4ia Health Podcast, where we guide busy parents and professionals to reclaim their energy and free up time so they can do more of what they love most.

In this episode, we dive into the art of setting sustainable and clear goals at the start of the year, ensuring they align with your long-term aspirations and daily habits. We explore why so many of us struggle with consistency, identifying common pitfalls like unrealistic expectations, lack of accountability, and the dreaded mid-year burnout. Our discussion highlights the power of reverse engineering your goals—breaking them down into smaller, actionable steps that are easier to track and achieve. By working backward from the desired outcome and creating a roadmap that integrates your goals into your routine, you'll build a framework for success. Tune in to learn practical strategies for staying focused, motivated, and committed throughout the year, turning your ambitions into accomplishments.

The holiday season is filled with joy, food, and festive gatherings—but it often becomes a time when fitness goals take a back seat. It's easy to feel like there's no time for movement or that small efforts aren't worth it.

This leads to feelings of sluggishness, low energy, and a sense of "starting over" in January. The all-or-nothing mindset can make you feel defeated before you even begin.

We share practical, achievable ways to stay active during the Christmas period—without sacrificing fun or family time. Discover how to turn social events into movement opportunities, sneak in steps with incidental movement, and embrace the "something is better than nothing" mindset. We’ll also show you how a bit of planning can keep you consistent, even on the busiest holiday days. Tune in to keep your energy up, your stress down, and your health on track this holiday season.

But with a little planning and mindfulness, you can enjoy the season without compromising your health.

In this episode, we’ll dive into some simple, yet effective strategies to stay on track during the holidays. We’ll discuss how to manage alcohol intake so it doesn’t derail your efforts, how to tune into your body’s fullness signals to avoid overeating, and how to build a balanced plate that fuels your body while still allowing room for the holiday treats you love. With these tips, you’ll be able to celebrate and indulge without the post-holiday regret. By focusing on small, sustainable changes, you can enter the New Year feeling confident, energized, and ready to keep moving forward with your goals.
