010: A Conversation with Leone Greaney, It's Never Too Late to Change Your Lifestyle & Habits
Prepare for a truly special episode of PROCAST BY JOSH as we welcome a remarkable guest, Leone Greaney – and yes, you guessed it, she's Josh's mum!
In this heartwarming and inspiring conversation, Leone shares her extraordinary journey of transforming her lifestyle and habits in her late 50s, now at the vibrant age of 61. Living proof that it's never too late to embrace change, Leone is the fittest, leanest, and in the best shape of her life, accomplishing feats she once thought impossible.
We explore Leone's mindset shift, where she went from thinking her body shape couldn't change to experiencing life to the fullest. Always seeking new challenges and opportunities for improvement, Leone exemplifies the power of resilience and determination.
The catalyst for this incredible change was health-related. Faced with escalating cholesterol levels and doctors recommending medication, Leone refused to accept this as her only option. Instead, she undertook a radical shift in her eating habits, embracing a vegan diet with immediate, impressive results. In just six months, her cholesterol levels dropped remarkably, leaving her doctors both shocked and impressed.
Our conversation delves into the limitations of the medical system, its reliance on quick fixes, and the often-overlooked potential of nutrition, exercise, and lifestyle habits to enhance health and quality of life. Leone's story challenges the notion that age defines our ability to change and improve.
We explore the essence of quality of life, its impact on the activities we love, and discuss various aspects of mindset, proving that it's never too late to change who you are and how you think.
This episode is a treasure trove of insights, a testament to the resilience of the human spirit, and a source of inspiration for anyone seeking positive change, regardless of age.
