How Busy Parents Can Get Healthy & Stay Healthy

My guest this week is Dr. Anthony Balduzzi 

In this episode, Dr. Anthony and I discuss practical and tangible tips to make health stick. It’s tough raising children, and our health as parents typically gets shoved to the way-side.  But reality is, it’s not serving us or our children. When we feel good, we show up as better parents and humans. With the rates of chronic and physical mental illness issues on a steep rise, I firmly believe that one of the ways we start turning those stats around is by taking stock of our own personal health and how it’s impacting not only us, but our families. As a young child, Dr. Anthony lost his hardworking father to cancer, and thus has committed his life’s work to helping busy parents across the world get healthy and stay healthy so they can live vivaciously alongside their children.  He shares many of his strategies to make nutrition simple and sustainable, movement more enjoyable and doable, and how to build and maintain a realistic mindset even when you are in the eye of the storm of the chaos of being a busy parent with an aging body and aging metabolism. When adults first manage their stuff, only then are they truly able to help kids manage theirs–and that applies to everything in life because kids learn from our modeling–physical health, mental health habits and behaviors.  

Dr. Anthony Balduzzi is a health and weight loss expert and the founder of the The Fit Father Project and The Fit Mother Project. These are leading health and weight loss programs for busy fathers, 40+ and mothers 35+, which most of you fit in those categories. Dr. Balduzzi holds dual degrees in nutrition and neuroscience from the University of Pennsylvania, has a doctorate in naturopathic medicine, and is a former national champion bodybuilder. He’s most proud of the fact that he’s helped over 40,000 families in over 100 countries lose weight and get healthy through his Fit Father and Fit Mother programs.
