  • 139. Reconsidering Alcohol
    I’ve decided that not drinking alcohol is COOL! 😊 In this episode of the High on Life podcast, I dive into the cultural norms and health implications of alcohol. From noticing Instagram trends where moms joke about drinking to get through the day, to feeling the subtle peer pressure that often accompanies social drinking — I share my personal journey of choosing not to drink. I discuss how sobriety is gaining momentum, why opting out of alcohol can empower your health and mindset, and how it’s becoming a lifestyle choice many are embracing. I also touch on important health risks linked to alcohol, including its connection to cancer and dementia. I highlight recent warnings from the U.S. Surgeon General and explain how even small amounts of alcohol can have serious health effects. I also discuss how alcohol impacts metabolism and weight, particularly during menopause. Finally, I offer some practical tips on how to live a lifestyle free from alcohol and feel confident in your choice. Tune in to learn how saying “no” to alcohol can actually help you thrive and live more intentionally.

  • 138. Creative Ways to Stay Motivated Beyond February
    In today’s episode, we’re tackling a big question: How do we stay motivated with our health goals after the excitement of January starts to fade? It’s mid-February now—prime time for life to throw curveballs and for the initial energy behind our New Year’s resolutions to wane. But your health journey isn’t about being perfect for one month—it’s about finding ways to create momentum and stay consistent throughout the year. I’ll share 8 creative, practical strategies to rekindle your drive and make health goals sustainable and fun. Staying motivated isn’t about grand, sweeping changes—it’s about embracing the joy in small steps, flexibility, and showing up for yourself every day, even when it feels challenging. Discipline fueled by self-love can make even the hardest choices worth it. If you’re a woman who is ready to take your goals from concept to transformation, I’d love to support you in my coaching program, Best Weight. We offer two live calls every week, so you’re never on this journey alone. Visit sashahighmd.com/bestweight to learn more and register.

An in-depth look at DEXA (Dual-Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry) scans: What DXA is and what metrics it provides for body composition analysis. How DXA compares to other tools like bioimpedance analysis (e.g., InBody). The logistics of getting a DXA scan, including preparation, frequency, and safety considerations. Key Takeaway: Understanding and monitoring muscle health is key to taking actionable steps to prevent age-related decline, optimize metabolism, and enhance longevity.
