5 Better Choices That Stick

With Health Month coming up in July and the year already at its halfway mark, now is the perfect time to revisit those New Year wellness goals. Whether you promised yourself better sleep, cleaner meals, or less screen time, it’s not too late to get back on track.

One campaign that inspired us to reset was the recent celebration of Healthy Options’ 30th anniversary. Their Make Better Choices campaign reminded us that wellness isn’t about perfection or performance. It’s about making smart, conscious decisions every day.Here are five takeaways we’re keeping in mind as we move into the second half of the year.

1. Wellness Happens in the Everyday

Founder Romy Sia put it clearly: being healthy is a choice. It’s not about grand overhauls but the little things—choosing whole foods, swapping out harmful ingredients, or simply reading labels more carefully.

2. There’s No One-Size-Fits-All Path

Actress Iza Calzado shared how motherhood shaped her health journey. Entrepreneur Carlo Herrera highlighted the importance of clean essentials for his family. Both stories reinforce the same message: wellness should meet you where you are.

3. What You Use Should Be What You Trust

Public figures like Bubbles Paraiso and Jae Pickrell pointed out how important product transparency is. With ingredient screening and trained staff, choosing what’s right for your body becomes simpler and smarter.

4. Support Makes Health Sustainable

Whether you’re just starting your health journey or looking to refine it, guidance matters. With nutritionists and pharmacists in-store, the experience becomes less overwhelming and more empowering.

5. Investing in Health Pays Off

Dr. Kara Gozali addressed the reality many avoid: shortcuts in health can lead to bigger costs down the line. Choosing better now may feel like a splurge, but it’s often the more sustainable, cost-effective choice long-term.
