We've been talking about gut health a lot on the podcast. If you notice, it's kind of cool. And it's pretty clear that you and I need to get probiotics into our diet somehow. So let me tell you about our sponsor, the iconic activity of probiotic yogurts, deliciously rich, creamy. It's a great way to consume billions of live and active probiotics. Activias probiotics go far. They're a hundred times stronger in survivability than standard non probiotic yogurt cultures to survive and reach your gut alive. That's important. And when you're on the go, grab activity as probiotic dailies, a low fat probiotic yogurt drink with a cori worthy creamy texture, it keeps you sipping. Whether you enjoy a breakfast yogurt with granola or a tasty yogurt drink between meals, count on activity as your go to probiotic yogurt. Your new gut health ritual start with activity today. Enjoying activity at twice a day for two weeks as part of a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle may help reduce the frequency of minor digestive discomfort, which includes gas, bloating, rumbling, and a abdominal discomfort.

And the reason why I'm so excited is because I want to give you and me permission to take a very critical look at the people that you surround yourself with. Are they helping you move your life forward? Or are they keeping you standing still? The fact is your relationships have the single biggest impact on the quality of your life. I'm not making this up. This is so well researched. In fact, if you look at the Harvard study of adult development, which is the single most detailed study about the well being of human beings of all time, it is so clear that positive relationships have the biggest impact on creating a positive life. But here's the deal. If you're surrounded by the wrong people, it is devastating to your happiness. And it robs you of all of the potential that is available to you in your life. And that's why I have invited my dear friend Trent Shelton to join you and me on the podcast today to talk about this. Here's one of my favorite quotes from Trent. At some point in your life, you get tired of unhealthy connections, whether be people or things. And as you grow, certain things become intolerable to your liking. And that's okay. But what you're going to learn today is it's more than okay to outgrow people.
