Ep 55: Can you lose weight in a loving gentle way?

 

I both love and hate talking about weight loss. I don't want to be part of the body shaming dieting culture we find ourselves in. But at the same time, I've noticed in working with women that their weight is something really personal and important to them. So can you approach weight loss in a gentle way? In a loving way? (That also actually give you results!)

That is what I am talking about in this weeks episode. I will share with you the tool I recommend to help clients connect and love their bodies more PLUS the 4 super practical and strategic thing you can do to help shift any weight that isn't serving your body.

Ep 54: What you need to know about supplements (& which ones you need to take!)

You will probably fall into one of two categories:

1. Supplements are a waste of time and make expensive wee

2. You buy tons of supplements and have a draw full of ones you don't use don't seem to work.

 

As a holistic nutritionist, I rely mainly on food to help people heal, but supplements do play a helpful role for many people. So this week in the podcast I am looking at the basic info you need to know about supplementation. ANNNNDDDD the 2 universal supplements I think are safe for most people.

Enjoy!

Ep 49: The Pill - The Good the Bad & The Ugly (And What to Use Instead?)

Most women I know have taken the contraceptive pill at some point in their life. It's just one fo those things we do either if we don't want to make a baby or if we have some sort of issue with our skin, our cycle or hormones.

But what does it actually do? What impact does it have on the body? And why is it given as the cure-all from PCOS to heavy periods to acne?

That wat we cover in this weeks episode - the good  the bad and the ugly of the pill, so that YOU can make you own informed decision about what is best for your body and health.

 

Important note: I mentioned post pill infertility in the episode - this is not something substantiated through research and is based on my own anecdotal experience with clients. Research actually shows that the use of the pill does not impact fertility.

I will also share with you where the vegan diet came from and how I would approach becoming vegan if I wanted to do it for ethical and moral reasons. Also, who REALLY shouldn't go vegan...
