I’ve been listening to The Afternoon Snack for a while now, and it continues to challenge, inspire, and educate me every week. The conversations are honest and empowering — especially for anyone passionate about growth, health, and self-awareness.

Love listening to these every week. I’m here for the consistent messaging around good information based on science and not trends… but also for all the Alex and Meredith conversations about life.

I look forward to listening every week no matter the topic! Whether the topics are informative, just plain entertaining or just whatnots! What I love most about these podcasts, aside from the well-informed insights, the humor, and the raw authenticity, is how generous Alex and Meredith are with sharing their own relationship conflicts and interactions and how they work through them. Their transparency is refreshing. Ahh… the lighthearted banter. (who knows how many arguments were formed following some of these podcasts) I can’t wait for the video versions - facial expressions and body language add so much!

Recent episode on metabolic toggles was really great. I look forward to a future episode where Alex and Meredith talk about health at any size. your philosophies on health, nutrition and weight align very closely with mine, but I also get a lot of new information and different perspectives to think about.
