Meet Paul Chek, a well-renowned expert in the fields of corrective and high-performance exercise kinesiology, stress management, and holistic wellness. He\\u2019s the founder of the CHEK Institute and a coaching program by the same name, and he\\u2019s the host of the podcast, Living 4D with Paul Chek.

This conversation isn\\u2019t about just one topic, but many many interesting ones. We explore the idea that\\xa0our mental belief systems and the thoughts that we have internally drastically affect our health in a very real and physical way. Paul talks about\\xa0how to address some unconscious beliefs that might be holding us back, especially in terms of motherhood.

I think this is a very educational episode and probably pretty surprising. I would encourage you to listen to it with an open mind, and I\\u2019m very curious to know your opinion once you do!
