#242. From gut-health to whole-body health. With Dr. Giulia Enders.

What does it really mean to understand the body as a whole? Why do we so often act against our own best intentions, even when we know better? And what actually helps when willpower isn’t enough?

In this live episode I’m joined by bestselling author and medical doctor Giulia Enders for a wide-ranging conversation about habits, reward systems, and why health can’t be reduced to single organs or quick fixes.

In this conversation you’ll learn:

• Why Giulia has widened her focus from the gut to the whole body.
• How to better understand why our bodies sometimes behave in ways we don’t like.
• What’s happening in the brain’s reward system when we get stuck in scrolling and other modern addictions.
• Practical strategies for reducing cravings for sweets, snacks, screens, and similar habits.
• How to look at unhealthy habits more holistically — understanding both their positive and negative sides.
• Why movement isn’t something we can biohack our way around and the one aspect of it that makes it invaluable.
