I cringe at the word diet - it sounds like something that you vow to start on Monday and abandon by Wednesday. I wish there were a single word that describes sustainable, wholesome choices that support long-term well-being. Being Wellthwise means ditching diets forever and embracing your own feel-good, thrive-fueled way of eating that is all about nourishment, not nonsense.

Aah, sleep. It is one of my favourite things to do. If sleep were an Olympic sport, I would have medals. I have been training for decades. It is the most vital of all the pillars of health.

I have a fantasy of waltzing into an international airport, looking up at the departure board and randomly choosing a flight that leaves in the next two hours.
