Description

The Eager to Be Healthy Podcast — hosted by Michael Scott Eger, health coach and wellness advocate — brings you inspiring health and happiness conversations that empower you to live a more vibrant, balanced life.

Join us for aspirational, real-talk episodes featuring everyday people who've overcome struggles with health, chronic illness, happiness, mental wellness, and personal growth. We dive deep into nutrition, healthy eating, food sensitivities, gluten-free living, being active, fitness motivation, social dynamics, relationships, love, sadness, emotional resilience, and the joy of building a perfect life — one that's truly happy and healthy.

The most powerful stories come from laypeople just like you — ordinary folks figuring out how to eat better, move more, feel better, and thrive without perfectionism. No experts-only vibes here — just authentic, relatable journeys that show transformation is possible.

I'm Michael Scott Eger, your host and guide. I help people eat better and have way more fun doing it. Growing up pre-internet, pre-cell phones, and pre-gluten-free era, I battled severe illness from childhood — multiple surgeries by age 15, endless doctors, and no real answers. In 1987, I discovered food was the root cause. Changing what I ate changed everything: better energy, clearer hearing, stronger school performance, and a new lease on life.

Over 30+ years of personal experimentation and helping others, I've built real knowledge on holistic wellness, natural healing through diet, and sustainable lifestyle changes. I healed myself first so I could pay it forward — because I know the deep pain of being sick and want no one else to suffer.

That's the heart of the Eager to Be Healthy Wellness Network — a community dedicated to wellness, nutrition tips, healthy living, happiness habits, and supporting each other on the path to feeling great.
