And I think that's a really good point to own in on. It is choices. And if you think back, like whether you have kids or not or have a pet and here you are, like you're looking at ingredient lists as best as you can.

Everything is thought out.

You might not feel like you have any control. until you put yourself, your higher self into the driver's seat. If your best friend came to you and said, God, I'm really suffering. I'm not sleeping well. I feel sad. You know, my cycle is off. Um, I'm gaining weight. I don't want to feel this way anymore. What advice would you give to them?

No, not at all. So yeah, that's a good place to start. Like is there stuff within you that you know you've got to deal with? And then the second place is just look at how you're nourishing yourself. I coach my clients and like when you have this lens, when you go home and you walk into your kitchen, you walk into your pantries, what if you were to consider that your first line of health care?
