Why am I bloated all the time? How can I increase my chances of getting pregnant? What kind of protein do I need to build muscle? What's a holistic approach to treating anxiety and ADHD? And why am I still tired even though I slept 8 hours? You've got questions—and longtime health journalist Rebecca Strong is hell-bent on finding the answers. While interviewing medical doctors, registered dietitians, licensed therapists, certified personal trainers, and other credentialed experts on her podcast Well-Bent, she'll share practical, actionable advice on how to optimize your physical, emotional, and mental well-being. This is a show about wellness tips that won't make you broke, confused, or miserable—and we're going way beyond the basics of healthy eating, exercise, and sleep hygiene into the depths of WELL. Because knowledge is power, and feeling good is your birthright—not a privilege. New episodes every other Tuesday.

At the end of 2024, I was beyond burned out — very much “burning the candle at both ends.” Then I came across a new book called Toxic Productivity by Israa Nasir, a licensed therapist in New York City who also founded the digital community Well Guide. As it turns out, Israa struggled with many of the same things — saying “yes” to too many commitments and overscheduling herself, while taking little time for herself.
