S04E027. Our Biggest Pet Peeves in the Health and Wellness Industry (And Why They Matter for You)
Listen on Apple Podcasts or Watch on YouTube
If you’ve ever watched a wellness influencer’s three-hour morning routine and quietly felt like you’ll never measure up, this one’s for you. Cris and I scrapped our planned topic and got spicy about the things in the health and wellness world that genuinely grind our gears, and the one thing underneath almost all of them.
This episode of Keep It Clear is an unfiltered look at the pet peeves we’ve collected over a combined 30 years in this space, from the “perfect routine” content that makes people feel inadequate, to affirmations, to the cruel standard that says you have to look a certain way to be taken seriously. It’s a mindset episode with a lot of heart, and if you’ve ever felt like you’re doing health “wrong,” it’s going to feel like a deep exhale. Hit play below or keep reading for a sneak peek inside.
In This Episode We Cover:
- Why the 46-step influencer morning routine is quietly making people feel like they can’t be healthy at all
- The one feeling Cris and I think is hiding underneath almost every wellness pet peeve
- Why Cris says affirmations “support a lie” for most people (and what she has clients do instead)
- The comment a stranger made about Cris being “thin, so legit” that still makes our knuckles white
- The question to ask yourself before you ever leave a nasty comment online
Resources & Links Mentioned:
- The Secret (the book I was reading at age 12, mentioned in our affirmations chat)
