What if the beliefs you formed as a child are still running your adult life – and you don't even know it?

Most of us live on autopilot, unconsciously driven by invisible beliefs we formed before age 8. These beliefs don't just influence our thoughts – they determine our emotions, our behaviors, and our entire reality. But what if you could identify and eliminate them in less than an hour?

In this transformative episode of Health Bite, Dr. Adrienne Youdim welcomes Shelly Lefkoe, co-founder of the Lefkoe Institute, for a practical, step-by-step guide to breaking free from the self-limiting beliefs that keep us stuck – whether in relationships, careers, or our relationship with food and money.

  • Author and speaker passionate about helping people live their "juicy best lives"
  • Specialist in working with patterns like emotional eating, people-pleasing, and perfectionism

What You'll Discover in This Episode:
