Getting caught up in the whirlwind of being a parent and putting yourself last can be so easy. But to enjoy being a mother, and enjoy this whole crazy experience, you have to start prioritising your own health, and well-being and start doing things that make you HAPPY. 

“When am I going to feel like myself again?” 

You won’t. Not the person you were before being a mother.

But I can teach you how to create a NEW woman. 

It’s time to get your life back.

Yep, you heard that right.

I used to suffer from chronic migraines and IBS.

But since I’ve started incorporating whole foods? Gone. I haven’t even had COVID. 

So today I wanted someone on the podcast who could chat with me about the science behind whole foods and who better than Katlyn Martin - qualified Naturopath and fitness coach with over 25 years of experience in the industry!

We’re talking all about the real impact food can have on illness and disease, the impact of eating on the fly (busy mums, I’m looking at you!) and why Katlyn is calling up restaurants asking what oil they use to cook with and why I’ve been messaging fish and chip shops…

This episode is for you if you…

💛 Are ready to start incorporating whole foods into your diet!

💛 Want to learn which foods are responsible for better cognitive health

💛 Want to hear why cooking at home actually increases longevity

💛 Are interested in the healthy sweet treats Katlyn makes at home!

Put your hand up if your health is the first thing to go as soon as you get stressed.

You stop exercising. 

You start reaching for chocolate or wine instead of nourishing whole foods

And that is if you’re remembering to eat at all.

Or you just don't like the idea of a routine because it feels too strict and you want more fun in your life.

I’ve been there, and I can tell you that having a routine doesn’t suddenly remove all spontaneity in your life. It actually gives you POWER back over your life, so that you have more time and energy to do the things that you love.

In today’s episode, I’m giving you the tools so that you can set yourself up right as soon as you wake up. 

I talk about:

💛 Why routines are SO important

💛 The non-negotiables you NEED to include in your routine

💛 Tips to ensure you stick to your routine long term

💛 My exact morning routine (if you need a little inspiration

This episode is for you if you…

💛 Don’t like the rigidity of a routine and want to keep your spontaneity

💛 Are looking for proof that it IS possible to be in a good mood at 7 am

💛 Want to learn how to stay calm when things don’t go to plan

Are you going for a run 3x times a week but can’t seem to lose weight?

Or going to the gym and can’t see any progress towards getting that ‘toned’ body you want?

There’s a scientific reason for that - and it’s not because you need to exercise harder.

Don’t get me wrong, exercising is an important part of weight loss but NOT in the way that you think. 

Let’s talk about it.

You’ll hear:

💛 Why exercising only makes up 5% of your daily calorie burn…

💛 How to burn more calories WITHOUT going to the gym

💛 Why you haven’t been able to increase your squats at the gym in MONTHS

💛 My number one, tried and TRUE way of losing weight that has worked for hundreds of women

… and SO much more

One of the biggest reasons so many women don’t get their incontinence or prolapses checked is that they’re scared of what’s going to happen in the consultation room.

But with a stat as high as 50% of women facing pelvic floor problems after pregnancy… We need to bust that myth immediately. 

Joining me on today’s episode is the incredible LJ Hargreaves, an Osteopath with over 11 years experience transforming people’s health. However, since having kids, LJ has taken a special interest in women’s health - dedicating her time to helping women stay strong through pregnancy and beyond.

LJ and I sit down on the couch to talk all about what you need to know going into pregnancy to keep your pelvic floor as strong as you can, how to recover post-pregnancy and even why elite athletes have to deal with it too!

Pelvic floor symptoms are common, but not normal. Don’t let it be the reason you’re not able to live your life how you want.

We’re covering so much in this episode including:

💛 Why kegels aren’t doing anything to help your pelvic floor

💛 The most common symptoms of a poor pelvic floor

💛 Busting myths about not being allowed to exercise while you’re pregnant

💛 Exactly what happens in a consulting room so that you know what you’re getting yourself into

Marketing has led us to believe that self-care is ‘treating’ ourselves. 

It’s going to get a massage.

Getting a manicure.

Going to a hair appointment.

Dropping $$$ at your favourite clothing store.

Grabbing all your favourite snacks from the supermarket (I’m looking at your chocolate).

But then we wonder why we still feel so unfulfilled, and SO stressed when the high rubs off and we are left with our day-to-day lives.

It’s because we have been doing self-care wrong. 

This episode is for you if you…

💛 Are constantly trying to lift yourself out of a slump but always fall back down

💛 Get ready to treat yourself at the slightest inconvenience

💛 Are ready to know the 5 self-care tips that will change your life

… and SO much more
