This $20 hack just improved my health & my business
You're sleeping on one of the most powerful tools out there—and it's cheaper than a takeout order.
Last year, I spent thousands of dollars on a nutrition coach.
I was struggling to hit my health goals and didn't feel confident figuring it all out on my own. The coaching helped—but wow, it was a serious investment.
Now, at 41, my health needs are still evolving. I've been soaking up insights from Dr. Stacy Sims' Level Up and JJ Virgin, and instead of paying for another high-ticket coach, I've been using ChatGPT—aka Chattie—to help me apply what I'm learning.
Here's how I actually use her:
“What's a good pre-workout breakfast for a 41-year-old woman trying to lower cortisol?” – She gives me meal ideas tailored to my goals.
“Compare magnesium glycinate vs. citrate for sleep.” – She helps me evaluate supplements before I spend a dime.
“What workout split makes sense for a woman doing strength training 5x/week? Follow the advice of JJ Virgin & Dr. Stacy Sims.” – She helps me plan my workouts based on my schedule and recovery needs.
“Based on Dr. Stacy Sims' approach, how should I fuel around workouts?” – She filters advice through the experts I trust.
And the best part?
Chattie remembers everything.
She knows my age, health history, goals, and struggles—so I don't have to re-explain anything. I've even created a “Workout/Health” folder under Projects so I can stay organized and keep building on what I learn.
And I don't just use her for health—I use ChatGPT every day in my business and for parenting questions too. She's like a research assistant, coach, and support system all rolled into one.
All for $20/month. And it's saving me thousands in coaching, time, and frustration.
Here's a quick real-life example:
Dr. Stacy Sims recommends 20g protein and 20g carbs within 30 minutes of waking to lower cortisol. If women skip that window, we stay in a high-stress state, which causes our bodies to store fat and break down muscle (the exact opposite of what we want).
I was eating half a protein bar in that window because it was fast—but it wasn't hitting the target.
So I asked Chattie for help.
She confirmed it wasn't ideal and gave me new breakfast options to try. After a little troubleshooting, we landed on a plan I've been following all week. I'm already feeling better and seeing results. Turns out I was unknowingly stressing out my body every single morning. Whoops.
Bottom line: ChatGPT doesn't replace learning.
But it helps you implement what you know—faster, smarter, and more confidently.
It's like having a personal assistant in your pocket—one that can help you improve your health, your business, your parenting, and maybe even save you money in the process.
Try it. Play with it. Ask it questions.
You never know—Chattie might just become your new favorite support system too.
