They can impact your mind too.For many women, removing implants brings unexpected relief: less anxiety, deeper sleep, clearer thinking, even a sense of liberation they didn't realize they were missing.

In this special episode of The Health Literacy 2.0 Podcast, host Seth Serxner swaps seats with Tom Chamberlain for an engaging exploration of the intersection between health literacy, wellbeing, and practical daily habits - guided by Seth's new book, “The Wellbeing Effect: Bite-Sized Practices for Busy People to Lead Happier, Healthier Lives”.Seth Serxner, Chief Health Officer at EdLogics, is a nationally recognized expert in health promotion and workplace wellbeing. With advanced degrees in psychology, public health, and health promotion from leading California universities, Seth has spent decades translating behavioral science into actionable strategies - in academia, the private sector, and as an author and thought leader.His personal journey, shaped by both academic rigor and a life-changing injury, has fueled his dedication to making health concepts accessible and empowering for everyday individuals and organizations.Tom and Seth also discuss:☑️ The Wellbeing Effect: His new book was inspired by a desire to reach employees directly, offering practical, evidence-based tips after seeing the impact of his wellbeing webinars during COVID.☑️ Personal Adversity as Teacher: A serious ski accident gave Seth firsthand insight into navigating the healthcare system and deepened his appreciation for foundational wellbeing practices.☑️ Mastering Behavior Change: Lasting change requires more than inspiration: Seth breaks down behavior change into awareness, skill-building, and maintenance, all anchored by personal purpose.☑️ From Wellness to Wellbeing: Traditional “wellness” targets risk factors, while “wellbeing” focuses on living longer, happier lives. Seth outlines three domains: foundational, emotional, and holistic wellbeing.☑️ Health Literacy as Foundation: Health literacy is a powerful determinant of health, even more than income or education. Understanding and navigating the healthcare system is core to personal and community wellbeing.☑️ The Power of Purpose, Awe, and Social Connections: Seth highlights the science behind purpose, awe, gratitude, humor, and meaningful social connections as often-overlooked but critical elements of wellbeing and resilience.☑️ Addressing Loneliness and Caregiving: Tackling loneliness—often called a new epidemic—and supporting caregivers are essential for improving health outcomes across all generations.☑️ Community and Workforce Impact: Employers and communities are recognizing that boosting health literacy and wellbeing drives better health outcomes, lifts whole populations, and fosters healthier, happier workplaces.This episode is a compelling reminder that small, intentional steps, grounded in science, purpose, and connection, can generate outsized impacts on our personal and collective health.Buy the book: sethserxner.com/book-2/Learn About EdLogicsWant to see how EdLogics' gamified platform can boost health literacy, drive engagement in health and wellness programs, and help people live happier, healthier lives?Visit the EdLogics website: www.edlogics.com

Ever feel like you're constantly performing the "right" version of yourself while your authentic self gets buried under endless expectations? This conversation explores how we've outsourced our sense of identity to social media, productivity culture, and other people's definitions of success—leaving us fractured and exhausted.

Perfect for anyone feeling overwhelmed by the "everything everywhere all at once" pace of modern life and wondering how to find themselves again beneath all the noise.
