Creativity is not a skill reserved for artists and musicians. You have creative potential, the ability to go from concept to inception. Whether that's the next great product, or an uplifting design. It all starts with your environment and beliefs. Then, long-term success depends on your inner game. The way you talk to yourself. How do you take control of your thoughts? You train them.

For years, I had wanted to test out CGM technology to better understand how my unique body responds to specific foods, drinks, and lifestyle habits. What if your daily "health" habits are actually setting you back? Blood glucose is one powerful metric that can help you make optimal decisions. The problem? Back then, I got quoted $1,500 for a 90-day experiment. I passed. The cost has dropped significantly. I jumped at the chance to test the top CGM services at the beginning of 2021, and walked away with surprising findings. So I had to get a member of their team on the show to talk about this futuristic technology.

I've never thought much about my facial muscles. As you'll learn today, that's a big mistake. Hundreds of muscles between your shoulders and head keep you alive and functioning well.
