Dr. Stephen Cabral
About this episode

Are unrealistic expectations holding you back from being happier & healthier?

I find too often many people believe that everyday they are supposed to feel jazzed with energy and smiling from ear to ear...

I'm here to tell you that life was never meant to be that way. Although you should not be suffering from any chronic bodily or mental health issues, minor things will pop up from day to day...

Tune into today's #CabralConcept 233 for more details on how to enjoy more happy & healthy days than not!
