In today's Member Takeover episode, I'm passing the baton to a couple of Jasons and badass members of the Brotherhood. Today's host is none other than Jason Bronstad and joining him is Jason Wachob. Jason Wachob is the co-founder of mindbodygreen, an organization that revolutionizes health and wellness with holistic approaches that go beyond traditional medicine.  In this conversation between two Jasons, they discuss something that is easy to forget as parents: it's not the flashy gifts or the fancy cars that win our kids' hearts. What matters most is our presence—being there for their sporting events, plays, or simply hanging out and playing at home.  As a former basketball player, Jason W. opens up about the impact sports had on him and the valuable life lessons, health benefits, and positive impact sports have on our kids' personal growth, both on and off the field.  Jason W. also shares some killer insights, medical tests, and screens to help us step up our health game, catch any warning signs early, and take control of our mental and physical health. Enjoy! A Wide-Ranging Conversation Through… Life is precious, never leave an argument angry When a blind date becomes a soulmate  Valuable life lessons kids learn from playing sports Educating kids about wellness with healthy food habits All protein is not created equal to build muscle Medical tests and screens that are worth every penny Wachob family mottos and working toward a ScreamFree home The inspiration for mindbodygreen Tips to help you take charge of your health and nutrition Daily exercise can be as little 5-10 minutes at a time Get the Full Show Notes Want access to the full show notes, including links to all resources mentioned during today's conversation?

How can we infuse a little bit more joy into health and well-being? How can we forge more meaningful connections? How do we identify our purpose?

“Joy is the ultimate wellness solution.”That line comes from Jason Wachob, who joined me for this inspiring Big Talk with his spouse Colleen. Colleen and Jason are cofounders and co-CEOs of the highly influential wellness brand mindbodygreen. They are legends in the field, but they know the world isn't getting it right when it comes to achieving wellness. Why? Because we aren't including joy. We aren't including human connection, spiritual connection, a sense of purpose, or even fun. Colleen and Jason are upending the current idea of “wellness” (and literally writing the books on it), and their insights may seriously enhance and extend your life.Colleen and Jason are cofounders and co-CEOs of mind body green, the leading independent media brand dedicated to well-being with 15 million monthly unique visitors.

If you've spent any time at all in the wellness world over the past decade, you're familiar with mindbodygreen, the premier health and wellness website for articles, courses, certifications, and more. In this episode, I'm so excited to host the founders, Jason and Colleen Wachob—it's also the first time I've had a couple on the podcast at the same time! Colleen and Jason have just released their new book, The Joy Of Well-Being: A Practical Guide to a Happy, Healthy, and Long Life, which challenges our definition of self-improvement by revealing what a healthy lifestyle looks like at the fundamental level—and how it's not what you think. In our current health-influencer culture, we are bombarded with information about what we should be doing. But this information often focuses on the latest trends and assumes you have endless time and money to tackle every new health fad that comes your way. To top it off, the information you get is often conflicting. Colleen and Jason's goal is to help you cut through the noise and find a recipe for well-being that brings joy and happiness to your life and focuses on emotional health as much as physical health. You'll be so encouraged by this conversation and come away with a few practical tips on how you can bring more well-being into your life today, without sacrificing all of your precious time and resources.

How does real life connection influence your brain health and longevity? The rise of algorithms has had a significant impact on our overall brain health and mental well-being. They work to direct your attention online and can disrupt how you interact with people, eventually interfering with how you learn, communicate, and engage with others. This makes it difficult to maintain a healthy balance between being online and fostering in-person connections. To go further on this topic, I'm excited to have Colleen and Jason Wachob on our show today. They are the founders and co-CEO's of Mind Body Green, an independent media brand dedicated to your well-being. They're also the authors of the brand-new book, The Joy of Well-Being: A Practical Guide to a Happy, Healthy, and Long Life. Technology can make your life easier in many ways. But it can also have a downside. The more it advances, the more tempting it can be to rely on algorithms to think for you. If you're looking for a way to sort through the polarizing noise online and find information on nutrition and wellness to share with the people you love, this episode is for you.
