And I always say either you have to make time for your wellness or you will be forced to make time for your illness.

I know.

Well, the warning signs are there a long time before you get those diagnoses.

Yeah.

So, Kali Means, a dear friend of mine, he's talked about this a lot publicly.

Good.

He's a great guest.

Well, he talks about this with his own mom.

He said the warning signs we saw 20 years prior to her cancer diagnosis, because when both her kids were born, they were born over 10 pounds, which tells you that the mom is having metabolic dysfunction.

And so then she gets diagnosed with diabetes.

They put her on metformin.

Then she gets diagnosed with high cholesterol.

They put her on a statin.

And then, you know, she has this other diagnosis.

And Callie looks back on it now and he's like, oh my God, no one ever changed course for her.

They just put her on another medication.

No one ever talked about her diet or lifestyle.

Well, that's the concept that so many people I feel like are not understanding because I see those comments all the time online like, oh, why do you go through all the trouble?

You're going to die anyways.

Because I don't want to be wheelchair bound and on 15 medications by the time I'm 65.
