The words you use don't just describe your life. They shape it. And not in a self-help book kind of way. The nervous system reacts to language in real time. Say "duck" and the body flinches. Say "I am diabetic" enough times, and the body listens to that too. JJ Virgin has been making this point for years. She's a four-time New York Times bestselling author, a nutrition and fitness expert, and one of the most respected voices in the health space. But the full weight of what she was saying struck her after her 16-year-old son was hit by a car and ended up in a coma. Doctors gave him a fraction of a percent chance of surviving. JJ refused to accept it. What she did next, and what she believed about it, is the reason this conversation exists.
