Right now, life feels like it is speeding by; there is so much to do, and life feels really overwhelming. You’re tired, overbooked, and wondering why everything feels harder than it should. 

The fix is right in front of you. And it isn’t a life overhaul. 

It’s small, science-backed habits that reconnect you to yourself, your people, and what really matters. 

These 7 small fixes make you feel incredible. 

They will help you feel more like yourself again. 

In this episode, Mel shares the simple, overlooked habits that help her feel better and have more good days. These habits are grounded in research, proven to boost your mood, lower your stress, and strengthen your relationships. They are proven to work, even when you’re already exhausted or short on time. 

Mel tells you powerful personal stories, shares uplifting research, and reads one unforgettable letter that will make you want to write a note to someone you love today. You’ll also learn what you need to do in your kitchen for more energy in an instant, the one word that creates an instant connection with someone, the best way to keep your relationships strong, and why you need to take 180 seconds to go on what Mel calls an “awe walk.” 

If you’ve been feeling disconnected, worn out, or like you’ve lost your spark, this episode is your reminder that it doesn’t take much to feel better. These small habits give you big rewards. 

These are the 7 habits Mel uses when she needs an energy upgrade, and now, she’s sharing them with you.
