Your gut doesn't just need a reset - it needs routine.

In this final episode of the 4R's series, I'm talking about the Retain phase - how to keep your gut thriving long after a reset or programme ends. It's about feeding your good bacteria, maintaining balance, and creating long-term habits that keep your energy, digestion, and hormones working in harmony.

I'll share why your gut health is the foundation for everything - from immune strength and brain function to mood, focus, and sleep - and how small, consistent changes make the biggest difference.

You'll learn: • How to feed your microbiome with fermented foods like yoghurt, kefir, and sauerkraut • The power of fibre to nourish good bacteria and stabilise blood sugar • Why plant diversity (30+ plants a week!) helps your gut stay resilient • The importance of keeping sugar, alcohol, and ultra-processed foods to a minimum • How routine - three balanced meals, hydration, movement, and sleep all keep your gut and hormones in sync

I also share Sarah's story - how six months after completing the Transformation Programme she still feels fantastic by sticking to colourful, fibre-rich meals and a calm, consistent rhythm.

Fab Female Gem: the secret isn't perfection — it's consistency. Feed your gut, fuel your energy, and your body will look after you.
