Ep 8 - Taking Wellness Back To Simplicity

What if the wellness industry is the reason wellness feels so hard?Tony and Effi Kasandrinos turn the mic on the wellness industry itself, calling out how a trillion-dollar space built on trends, supplements, and quick fixes has made staying healthy feel harder than it used to be.They walk through what they actually do every day, sleep first, then walking, whole foods, hydration, and sunlight, long before supplements enter the picture. They get into the real cost of ice baths and red light devices, why gym memberships go unused every January, and the quick fixes, from fat loss shots to TRT, that skip the root cause entirely.If you have ever felt like wellness got too complicated, too expensive, or too loud, this one brings it back to basics.
