On this week’s #GoalChatLive, we talk about healthy habits with a fun, playful, hunger-inspiring twist. Guests Rob Rosenthal (aka Short Order Dad) and Eli Walker (CEO and founder of Drunk Yoga) joined me for a show entitled: Eat, Drink, and Do Yoga! The April theme is Health, and we’ll also be covering Mental, Money, and Corporate Health on #GoalChat Live.
Authors Rob and Eli share their backstories – how Rob became a food humorist and chef and how Eli created Drunk yoga – as well as their thoughts on living healthy, eating well, and finding balance. We even had a nice oatmeal tangent, as well as a comparison of working out to eating a cookie versus baking a cake.
Healthy Habits
- Rob: I like working out as often as possible. And I believe in varying the activity. What you put in your body also matters. Eating healthy and well takes discipline
- Eli: I believe in rituals. I figure out what I need to do each day to get a good night’s sleep, and I work backward. Yoga, for Eli, is not working out. It’s like breakfast – she starts her day with Yoga and does something else to work out.
Food Habits
- Rob: Prefers actual food to dessert. The challenge is quantity.
- Eli: Mostly vegan, gluten-free with a weak spot for vegan chicken nuggets
- Eli: Loads spices into coffee
- Rob: Makes savory oatmeal with spices

Final Tip
- Eli: Find ways to engage playfulness in everything you do
- Rob: Be playful in the kitchen and cook more
