Welcome to the A to Z of Wellness—a special series from the Seasonal Sisters Podcast, where we break down simple, science-backed ways to improve your mental, physical, and social wellness.
This episode kicks off with the letter A—Aim High! Host Janice Saunders shares how setting ambitious health goals and holding yourself accountable can lead to lasting, sustainable habits. From a powerful strategy inspired by behavioral science to small, daily changes that lead to big results, this episode will motivate you to take action on your wellness journey.
The power of aiming high: Why setting bigger health goals leads to better long-term success.
A behavioral science-backed approach to exercise: Why scheduling daily workouts—even if you miss a few—leads to more movement overall.
Walking as a wellness tool: How walking improves mental, physical, and social health.
The importance of accountability: How tracking progress and community support can help you stay consistent.
Personal wellness goals: Janice’s journey from 3,000 steps a day to 10,000+ steps daily and her ambitious goal to walk from the top to the bottom of Manhattan.
✅ Set a big goal: Challenge yourself to aim higher with your fitness, nutrition, or self-care routines.
✅ Schedule daily movement: Even if you miss a few days, you’ll still exercise more than if you planned for less.
✅ Make wellness social: Walk with a friend, family member, or partner to stay accountable and make fitness fun.
✅ Experiment with new habits: Try different activities and find what fits your season of life.
✅ Track your progress: Small daily wins add up to big results over time.
