On the podcast this week I talk to none other than Joe Wicks aka The Body Coach about how you keep motivated when you are trying to live a healthy lifestyle, particularly when you are trying to make a positive change.

I’m sure a lot of you are aware of Joe - he’s sold over 3m books across the world and his highly engaging, motivating videos are an absolute smash on social media.

In this episode we talk about motivation - and Joe’s the perfect person to ask.

We cover the following:

• Routine - one of the best ways to maintain a healthy lifestyle
• Meal planning - and how this can help with your daily meals
• Prioritising sleep - the best way to maintain your energy levels during the day
