    From Quick Fixes to True Balance: Strengthen Your 4 Health Pillars

    Author Vicky Hachey

    Is your health feeling “wobbly,” like a table with one leg shorter than the others? You’re not alone—and you don’t have to keep MacGyvering your way through it.

    In this episode, I share how a simple dinner with friends—and an unsteady restaurant table—sparked a powerful lesson about the four essential pillars of health: nutrition, movement, relationships, and mental health. When one pillar is off, your whole life can feel unstable. But with the right balance, you can age strong, think clearly, and feel empowered at every stage of life.

    This conversation is a must-listen if you’re ready to stop patching the problem and start building a steady foundation for your wellbeing.

    Together, we explore:

    • Why nutrition is more than “eating healthy” and how to avoid the brain-fog trap
    • Movement habits that protect your bones, joints, and independence as you age
    • The overlooked link between sleep, cravings, and emotional resilience
    • How relationships—good or strained—affect your health more than you think
    • Mental health strategies to prevent burnout, low confidence, and disconnection

    We talk about:

    • 00:00 Introduction
    • 01:34 Introduction to the Four Pillars of Health
    • 02:42 Pillar 1: Nutrition
    • 05:36 Pillar 2: Movement and Fitness
    • 08:53 Pillar 3: Relationships
    • 11:13 Pillar 4: Mental Health
    • 13:19 Conclusion and Special Offer
