In this episode, Shelly shares her fears around cancer returning and why prioritizing her health feels more important than ever. From committing to annual mammograms and finding a new primary care physician to moving her body more and getting outside, this episode focuses on setting boundaries now to create a healthier, more fulfilling future. Stephanie challenges Shelly to take action—choosing healthier foods, cutting back on sugar, and following through on goals instead of just thinking about them. The conversation also takes an intriguing turn as they explore whether ADHD could be influencing Shelly’s habits, leading to reflection, research, and a closet clean-out commitment. If you’re navigating women’s health, personal growth, or lifestyle changes, this episode will inspire you to start small and move forward.  Past Episodes You May Love:  Episode 121: Anxiety, ADHD, and More Episode 125: Everybody has Something Episode 131: Women's Health Episode 150: Quarter and Midlife Crisis Episode 156: The Self Cleaning House Want to know more about living a slowed down life?!
