Body Wisdom

Caitlyn is a mama of two toddlers Selah and Gemma and has developed a strong passion for gentle parenting throughout the years. Her heart for parenting grew as she was pregnant with her first and realized that culture had a lot of negativity to offer when it came to raising children and she wanted to start a different path for her kids. Through the years of raising her own kids she has come to love the topic and importance of connection based parenting and longs to empower other families who desire the same.

Caitlyn's book recommendations:

Emma Sgourakis, mum of two, and Certified Nutritionist in Melbourne Australia, working with clients one on one worldwide. Emma's 2-3 month programs help to re-educate about nutrition for optimising digestion, metabolism, reducing stress and improving fertility. A big part of her work particularly in the past 10 years has been helping people interpret the research of Dr. Ray Peat, someone she is greatly inspired by. 

Kitty spent most of her adult life dieting. She jumped from one quick fix diet to the next. Shakes, fasting, keto and low carb. You name it she's done it. She was obsessed with food and felt like she was either restricting or I was binge eating. She felt happiest when she was thin but she had to starve myself and train 6-7 days a week to maintain it. She had irregular and painful periods, suffered miscarriages, rarely slept through the night, was bloated and constipated and she was exhausted. That all changed in 2015 when she met Craig and stumbled across the work of Ray Peat and Emma Sgourakis. What she learnt transformed my body and health. It's now her mission to free women from restrictive diets, help them restore their metabolisms, balance their hormones and build bodies they love

In this episode, I am joined by Functional Diagnostics Nutrition Practitioner, Michael Angel, who combines functional medicine, Ayurveda, and spirituality into his practice. Through his own suffering, he has learned how to heal and help others overcome digestive issues, mold, anxiety, fatigue, and much more. His formal studies in psychology and personal exploration with yoga, plant medicines, and psychedelics, have made him particularly skilled at uncovering the mental and emotional blocks that prevent people from healing. His scientific mind and open heart make him a wealth of knowledge and a joy to listen to.

Barely anyone is aware of this hidden mechanism, even though it’s happening all the time, in all of us.

It’s the stories we tell ourselves.

Tune in to learn about the stories I've been telling myself, becoming aware of yours + what you can do about them.
