I just listened to a podcast that said do the opposite of what your inner bitch says.
She says don’t workout- workout
She says watch one more episode-read
She says be rude to your SO-write a gratitude list
No motivation to work-plan the rest of the week. Meals, workouts, all of it. And get to work.
Don’t let the inner bitch win.

We’re considering adding wearables tracking to pull in health metrics for a wellness app. Let’s say we plan on doing iOS only and one approach is only doing apple health integration, while another is to use a 3rd party aggregator like Validic or Humanapi to integrate once and get access to Fitbit, Oura, WearOS, and tons of other wearables. Which route would you suggest?
