What if the missing piece was your connection to your body?
In this episode, I’m joined by Dr Indika Gunaratne former GP and Functional Medicine practitioner who shares her journey from clinical medicine into a more embodied approach to health through movement and conscious dance.
After 18 years supporting health and wellbeing, Indika saw first-hand how stress, emotions, and modern life impact the body in ways that aren’t always addressed through conventional approaches alone.

Feeling wired but tired, exhausted, or stuck in cycles with food?
Your nervous system may be under more strain than you realise.
In this episode of Thrive Well with Becci, I explore three signs your nervous system may be exhausted and explain what’s happening inside the body when stress becomes chronic.
We unpack the science behind the body’s stress response, including the Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal axis, cortisol, blood sugar regulation, appetite hormones, sleep, and the gut–brain connection.
Because when the body has been running in survival mode for too long, it often shows up as:
• Feeling wired but tired• Mid-afternoon energy crashes• Emotional eating or sugar cravings
If you’ve been feeling exhausted, struggling with energy, or wondering why consistency with your health feels so difficult right now, this episode will help you understand what your body may be trying to tell you.

In this deeply personal episode, I’m joined by mindset coach Emily Chadbourne, someone I’ve known since we were teenagers growing up in a small village in the 90s.
Long before social media.
Long before constant comparison.
Now based in Melbourne and working internationally, Emily helps women cultivate personal power through mindset, grounded spirituality and aligned systems, but her journey hasn’t been linear.
We explore:
• How our roots shape resilience
• Career pivots and rewriting your narrative
• Sobriety and emotional maturity
• Navigating parental loss
• The power of community and serving others
• Writing your own obituary and asking what really matters
This episode is about curiosity.
About courage.
About choosing differently.
If you’re stepping into a new season, this one will resonate.

The start of this year has been full. Busy. Beautiful. And, if I’m honest, stretching.
In this personal check-in episode, I’m sharing what a recent pause taught me about rest, boundaries, and coming back to basics, especially when life feels demanding and you’re holding a lot.
We talk about:
Recognising when you’re overextending
Why rest is not indulgent, it’s essential
The foundations of health (sleep, nourishment, breaks, boundaries)
Stress, capacity, and how to recalibrate before burnout creeps in
Why choosing yourself daily is an act of responsibility, not selfishness
As we step towards March and a new season, this is your invitation to pause and ask:
How am I really doing?
If your foundations feel shaky, this episode will gently guide you back to what matters most.
And if you’re feeling stuck or unsure where to start, you can book a free 30-minute discovery call with me, sometimes one honest conversation can shift everything.
Let’s build this next season from a place of steadiness, not survival.

In this episode, Becci responds to a wave of listener questions about supplementation from magnesium and vitamin D to hormone blends and gut powders.
We cut through the noise around supplementation and ask the honest question: are you wasting your money?
More importantly, we bring it back to what matters most, your symptoms, your stress load, and the foundations your health is built on.
We explore:
When vitamin D and magnesium genuinely make sense
How chronic stress alters nutrient demand
Why stacking supplements blindly is not the same as strategy
How to assess whether what you’re taking is actually working
This episode is for anyone taking supplements, but still feeling tired, wired, depleted or out of sync and ready to stop guessing and start listening to what their body is really saying.

In this episode, Becci is joined by Jack Southgate, Founder and Head Personal Trainer of Dedicated Fitness, for an honest and empowering conversation about fitness, confidence, and what really helps people stay consistent.
Jack shares his own story of overcoming insecurities around fitness, reminding us that we all carry experiences that shape how we show up, but those stories don’t have to define what comes next. Together, we explore what truly supports consistency, and how the right environment and support can change everything from the very beginning.
We talk about:
Why community matters more than motivation
The mental health benefits of exercise
The importance of strength training as we age
How stress, sleep, energy, nutrition, and key vitamins and minerals impact performance and confidence
Current trends in the gym, including GLP-1 injections and quick-fix approaches and why they often fall short when the foundations of health aren’t addressed
How to take kind, achievable steps forward if the gym feels intimidating or overwhelming
This episode is for anyone who wants fitness to feel supportive, achievable, and aligned with real life and who’s ready to rewrite their fitness story with the right support around them.

There’s a lot of noise around health right now and it’s easy to feel pulled from one trend to the next.
In this episode, Becci gently explores why so many of us get caught chasing quick fixes, from extreme challenges and weight-focused approaches to wearable data and the latest “must-have” supplements and why none of these, on their own, create lasting health.
This conversation is a reset.
We talk about:
Why health trends feel so tempting when you’re tired, stuck, or overwhelmed
The limits of wearables and why tracking output doesn’t tell the full story
How blind supplementation becomes another form of trial and error
Why around 80% of chronic disease is lifestyle-driven, yet we remain stuck in reactive care
How functional testing (Gut Health, Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis, Continuous Glucose Monitoring) removes guesswork and shines a spotlight on root causes
This episode is not about judgement or doing health “right”.
It’s about informed choice.
Listening to your body.
Understanding what’s happening beneath the surface.
And stepping out of the cycle of trends so you can become the engineer of your own health working with your body, not against it.
If you’re craving a calmer, more personalised approach to health that actually makes sense for you, this episode is for you.

Welcome to the first episode of 2026 on Thrive Well with Becci.
This episode is a gentle, honest reflection, shaped by the lessons Becci's learned personally through 2025 and the patterns she sees every day in her clients.
If Becci was starting again this year and wanted to truly take ownership of her health, this is where she would begin.
In this episode, we explore:
Why space and capacity are foundational for health
The ripple effects of chronic stress on the gut, sleep, energy, eating patterns and relationships
How nervous system regulation supports long-term wellbeing
Rethinking nutrition with curiosity rather than control
The importance of movement, community and consistency
The core pillars of health that support sustainable change
Why functional testing, especially gut health testing can be a complete game changer
This is not about perfection or doing everything at once.
It’s about creating safety, calm, ownership and letting the ripple effects unfold.
Pop this on while you’re walking, resting, or enjoying a quiet moment.
And if this episode resonates, Becci would love to hear why and what you want more of on the podcast this year, including guest conversations (eeekk!).
