This week Nicola and Di chat with the energetic and inspiring Amelia Phillips. Amelia has spent more than 2 decades helping Australians live healthier, more balanced lives. Amelia is a nutritionist, exercise scientist, TV presenter, entrepreneur and health advocate who has guided over half a million women toward better health. From owning her own gym when she was just 24, to co-founding the Michelle Bridges 12 Week Body Transformation and being named one of BRW’s top 50 places to work, Amelia has seen every side of the health industry - the good, the hype and the hard earned truth. These days she’s focused on helping women in midlife cut through the noise from the so-called longevity hacks. 

In this episode we get to hear Amelia’s story of when her fascination with the human body, nutrition and exercise started, which was all the way back in year 3. Amelia shares the challenges she had in her teenage years, struggling to fit in, which led to an eating disorder as she tried to be as thin as she could.  A story that unfortunately, many women can relate to.

Amelia gives us some great tips on everything women in midlife need to know to be healthier, have more energy and feel their best. We talk about the 4 different types of exercise that are important to incorporate into your routine, the 3 best supplements you can take to supercharge your health as well as the particular diet that’s the best for longevity. 

We also talk about sugar addiction, Amelia’s personal struggle with this, and her best tips for how you can get a sugar addiction under control so that it doesn’t have a hold over you. 

This was an episode packed full of super practical tips for anyone that wants to feel healthier and more energised. Amelia is so passionate about supporting women with their health and we loved chatting to her in the studio. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did.
