What if your health challenges were signals, not setbacks? What if the turning point wasn’t the diagnosis, but the decision to trust your instincts?

In this grounded and powerful conversation, I’m joined by clinical nutritionist Katherine Hay. Katherine’s work in gut health, hormones, fertility, and women’s wellbeing is shaped by her own lived experience. Diagnosed with PCOS in her teens and later with Stage 4 endometriosis in 2022, she spent years navigating symptoms that were overlooked or dismissed. Her story is one of deep self-trust, persistent advocacy, and a clear-eyed view of what women are still up against in today’s medical model.

Katherine has become one of Australia’s most trusted voices in clinical nutrition. Through her work at Kaptured Nutrition and her supplement line, All Things Better, she supports women across every life stage—from preconception through postpartum—with care that’s clear, effective, and deeply informed. We talk IVF, supplement standards, nervous system support, and why foundations like food and rest still matter most. This is a conversation about healing, but also about staying curious, choosing clarity, and remembering that your body is always speaking.

Key Takeaways

Hormonal Symptoms Deserve Answers – Period pain, fatigue, and mood swings aren't random. They’re signs your body needs support.

Endometriosis Requires Advocacy – Misdiagnosis is common. Katherine’s journey shows how vital it is to trust your gut and push for proper care.

IVF Is a Whole-Body Journey – Fertility struggles impact more than the physical. Nervous system support, nutrition, and mindset matter.

Supplements Should Be Effective, Not Just Popular – Most prenatal vitamins are underdosed or poorly absorbed. Therapeutic formulations change everything.

Nutrition Heals from the Root – Gut health, mineral balance, and foundational nutrition are essential for hormone balance and fertility.

Even Practitioners Burn Out – Helping others doesn’t mean you're immune to depletion. Katherine shares how seeking help became her turning point.
