In this deeply personal December Reset episode, I reflect on the highs and lows of 2025: from building sustainable fitness habits and healing my relationship with food, to navigating body image struggles, past validation, and rediscovering authentic self-expression. I share how I'm closing out the year by blending intentional goal-setting with seasonal joy, and offer practical tips for making December feel special while staying aligned with your wellness journey.
💫 Key Topics:
- Understanding common fitness misconceptions and how to build a sustainable movement practice

The Male Room with Dr. Jesse Mills
As Director of The Men’s Clinic at UCLA, Dr. Jesse Mills has spent his career helping men understand their bodies, their hormones, and their health. Now he’s bringing that expertise to The Male Room — a podcast where data-driven medicine meets common sense. Each episode separates fact from hype, science from snake oil, and gives men the tools to live longer, stronger, and happier lives. With candor, humor, and real-world experience from the exam room and the operating room, Dr. Mills breaks down the latest health headlines, dissects trends, and explains what actually works — and what doesn’t. Smart, straightforward, and entertaining, The Male Room is the show that helps men take charge of their health without the jargon.
