097 How gut health and stress impact your sleep | Dr Natasha

The more we research gut microbes the more we realise they are truly in charge of everything else that is going on in our bodies
— Dr Natasha Campbell McBride -

It’s fascinating how the imbalance in our gut flora can lead to the digestive system being a major source of toxicity rather than a source of nourishment.

Yet it’s not surprising as Dr Natasha shares the commercial foods that are produced by commercial agriculture are full of chemicals which in their nature are antibiotics. We know that over use of antibiotics is one cause of leaky gut.

The other major issue we explore is that abnormal gut flora means the flow of hormones from them will also be abnormal. Both these issues along with chronic stress impact your sleep.

We spoke about

  • Where Dr Natasha’s passion for gut health began

  • How what we eat impacts the quality of our sleep

  • Exploring the link between sleep, gut and hormonal health

  • The impact of not getting good quality sleep

  • Dr Natasha’s tips for Living Fabulously

095 Why willpower for wellbeing goals is unsustainable | Bev Roberts

You’re giving more for the body to do each time you stop and start a fixed term rigid eating program
— Bev Roberts -

In this pro bono coaching session, Bernie shares how her brain fog and exhaustion have impacted her ability to run her business.

As you listen you will understand why your momentum gets short circuited because it’s hard to maintain strictness once a group program is over. You end up starting again every time you follow a rigid eating program that is not tailored to your specific needs.

We spoke about

  • Why Bernie wanted to work with Bev

  • Bernie’s health journey to date

  • How Bernie loses momentum each time she finishes a challenge

  • What Bernie has tried to resolve her exhaustion

  • The significant impacts on Bernie and her business

  • Easy actions for Bernie to make good choices in the moment and most of the time

As you're listening if you have questions be sure to post them below and Bev will respond.
