Episode 3 - Less Fear, More Freedom: Redefining Holistic Health

Thu, 22 May 2025 06:00:00 +1000

Description

In this episode, Laura sits down with the incredible @natalie.k.douglas – clinical nutritionist and naturopath – for a refreshingly real conversation about what holistic health actually means.

They talk about how easy it is to fall into the trap of fear-based advice when it comes to food, health, and healing… and why it’s not helping anyone.

From organic vs non-organic, to “clean” eating, supplements, and food guilt – they dive into how confirmation bias can shape our choices without us even realizing it.

Laura and Natalie also share parts of their personal health journeys, the struggles they’ve had with perfectionism, and why joy, connection, and flexibility are just as important as what’s on your plate.

This episode is a permission slip to honor your body, trust your needs, and let go of the all-or-nothing approach to wellness.

✨ If you’ve ever felt confused, overwhelmed, or like you’re never doing “health” well enough… this one’s for you.

Episode 1 - The Pressure of Timelines & Investing in Yourself

Wed, 09 Apr 2025 06:00:00 +1000

If you’ve ever felt like you’re falling behind in life… this episode is for you.

In this raw and real conversation, Laura opens up about the silent pressure so many women carry — the pressure to hit certain life milestones by a certain age: lose weight, find a partner, get married, buy the house, have the baby. And if we don’t? We feel like we’ve failed.

But here’s the truth: those timelines?
They’re keeping us stuck.
Stuck in toxic patterns — choosing the wrong partners, chasing quick fixes, bouncing between diets, battling binge eating, and constantly questioning our self-worth.

In this episode, Laura shares her own story — a life that looks nothing like society's “rulebook.” Having a baby, not married, not engaged and not owning her own home that she lives in!… and yet, she is genuinely happy. Why? Because she finally let go of the timelines and started doing the real work: rebuilding self-worth, healing from diet culture, and choosing what actually feels right for her.

We hope that this episode gives you permission to do the same — to stop waiting for the next milestone to feel good enough… and start living a life that feels like yours.

You are not behind.
You are right on time — for your timeline.

EPISODE 1 - Welcome to 2022 & How to make your resolutions stick

Tue, 25 Jan 2022 09:00:00 +1100

Welcome to Season 2 in 2022!

We are so excited to be back sharing more information and guests with you in 2022.

To start off the new season we thought what better topic than breaking down those New Years Resolutions or as we like to call them goals. In today's episode we talk about where people go wrong when selecting their goals but more importantly how to make them stick!

In the episode we draw on the values that each person has when it comes to stick to their goals. Sometimes people are not aware of their strongest values so if you have not yet completed Dr Demartini's Values quiz click the link below:

This is the year to see through the goals that you set yourself by reverse engineering what you are working towards. Comment on any of our socials to let us know what your 2022 goals are.
