  • The health practices we’re not told about for pregnancy and postpartum with Maia Mothers founder Emma Morris

    This episode is an interview with Emma Morris. She’s a nutritionist based in Brisbane, founder of women’s health clinic Maia Mothers, and a new mother herself. Emma and her business partner, Monique Peters, have done something special with the clinic they built just one year ago, holding women through preconception, pregnancy, postpartum, and other phases of life through holistic and complementary modalities. In our chat, Emma explains what kinesiology and homeopathy are (concepts I had previously never managed to grasp), the holistic care process she and her colleagues take a women through, and why women are getting lost in our western healthcare system.

  • Mother’s rage, thyroid dysfunction, and the gaps in postpartum care with Alana Mulhall from Mothers Mylk

    This episode is an interview with Alana Mulhall, co-founder of Mothers Mylk and co-author of Nourished Postpartum. Alana Mulhall is a Naturopath specialising in Women’s Health, Hormonal Conditions, Preconception and Fertility. What I love about Alana is that you can tell she is so fired up by women’s wellbeing and giving them the tools to overcome the challenges we face in pregnancy and motherhood. She’s a mother herself, she’s so full of wisdom and she’s so generous with her knowledge. We spoke about the gaps in postpartum care in our western healthcare system, the impacts she’s seeing on women, we delved into postpartum rage, thyroid dysfunction, depletion, and - as she’s currently 9 weeks pregnant with her second baby - exactly what she’s doing herself for her own wellbeing in pregnancy and how she’s preparing for postpartum.

      6. My First Pregnancy - Sciatica, SIJ Dysfunction, SPD

        In this episode, I’m sharing my pregnancy story with Arthur. I think it’s beneficial to share our experiences, for ourselves to process what we go through and for others to learn from our experiences. and there’s an onus on sharing our birth stories, which I also think is important, but I don’t often hear people telling the story of their pregnancies, maybe because they’re so long, maybe because we’re encouraged to downplay the struggles of pregnancy. 

         

        I can look at my pregnancy in hindsight, having since become qualified in prenatal and postnatal yoga, and understand better what I went through, why those things occurred, and what I could have done differently to make things better. I know some of the challenges I had are common, so I’d love to share my lessons and better prepare you if you’re going through the same thing.

      30. Meditation for Motherhood

        Today’s episode is about meditation for motherhood. I don’t think I need to tell you that meditation is good for you and that we really ought to do it. We know that; there are myriad studies proving its benefits. Instead, I talk about how meditation applies to motherhood and techniques to develop a meditation practice, despite being on call to a tiny, demanding human. I’ll also explain how meditation fits into the yoga landscape.

      42. Making Second Hand Online Shopping Easy with Beth Glancey from AirRobe

        I’m talking to Beth Glancey, General Manager of AirRobe, a new platform that’s helping brands and consumers participate in the circular economy and keep fashion out of landfill. It’s a free service that we can start using right now in two ways. You can re-sell your items or you can shop pre-owned items. And what’s different about this is the airrobe technology and their partnerships with brands, like The Iconic and The Memo, are making it really easy to extend the life of your purchases, to buy quality items at a cheaper price, and - what I like most - to have online shopping functionality for second-hand items. 

        Not only does Beth have an impressive career, she’s also mother to two little boys, so I wanted to ask her about the structures she’s put in place and her mindset that allow her to be ambitious at work and be a mother, take care of herself as well. I’m always so interested to hear what’s working for other women, other mothers and Beth gives us some really tangible insights that aren’t just ‘I meditate for 20 minutes every day’.

      54. My First Miscarriage

        This episode is pretty personal and pretty sad. Let me give a warning now that I will be speaking about miscarriage and pregnancy loss, so if this is upsetting for you, you might want to give this episode a miss. 

        I'm sharing the story of my first miscarriage; how I discovered it was happening, the process, my treatment, going into labour for my baby I would never meet, and my recovery. 

        For pregnancy loss, newborn death, and stillborn support, go to SANDS at www.sands.org.au.

        As mentioned in the episode, for a list of postnatal depletion blood tests, read The Postnatal Depletion Cure by Dr Oscar Serralach.

      81. Part 1: Setting goals and intentions for 2021

        OK, first off, let me apologise for taking so long between podcast episodes. Turns out it’s hard to consistently release a podcast with a new baby. BUT I have a new episode OUT NOW, about setting goals and intentions for 2021. Yes, I know it’s basically March. It’s taken me this long to dig into my desires and set goals consciously and realistically. And setting goals is not just a new year vibe, you can refresh at any time! In this ep, I discuss:

        • Your goals changing over time
      82. Establishing what you really want
      83. The difference between goals and intentions
      84. And using your values, biggest desires, and passions to guide your goal setting
      85. Ecolust Podcast empowers you to live intentionally and sustainably by giving you realistic, practical tips and by sharing our own experience and insight from our inspiring guests.
