Join us as we chat about all about habits! Where did the myth of the “21 days to build a habit” come from? Why are some habits so darn hard to develop? What happens when we stop doing a habit?

Finally, Sandy’s been hanging on to some JUICY information that she knows Henny will find super gross! **Show Notes** Podcast we mentioned: Better with Dr. Stephanie

Join us as we chat about what life has been like for both of us in the past two weeks.

Join us as we chat more about the rules we put in place surrounding food when it comes to the little ones in our lives. Do we put parameters around when they can eat dessert? Do we insist they eat everything on their plate? Do we limit the number of items they may eat? Henny goes down memory lane, and while she hasn’t fact-checked it all, she’s pretty sure she remembers her experiences at fat camp correctly. Finally, Sandy is on the precipice of trying something new: a Supper Club! Sounds tasty!...
