Introduction.

If there is one thing the chatters can say about Lisa Tamati from New Plymoth is that she is relentless.

Her story to save her mother and Father from medical negativity and can we say ignorance is heart wrenching at first but inspirational without a doubt.

Lisa is a researcher, she should have an honorary PhD.  Her knowledge goes far beyond many health professionals, and she is tenacious in learning what she needs to learn in order to help herself, her family and her clients.

Lisa believes that we need to take hold of our own health even when the medical establishment says there is no hope.  She finds hope, then she finds the specialists, then she interviews them on her website then she gets to work to make changes.

This is one incredible podcast and you will note that the chatters were quiet through Lisa’s incredible story and journey.  This is one not to miss

Quotes
I didn’t have a medical background but I warted to learn and not be told NO.
Where there’s a will there’s a way.
I always ask what else is there? What else don’t they know?
It is not a magic bullet or one pill fixes all.
It requires a lot of effort to come to the edge.
The medical system is flawed it is very reactive, not preventative, it’s about the dollars.
Medical knowledge is doubling every 72 days, we cannot keep up.
If you give the reins to someone else you may be sorely disappointed.
The biggest learning in my running was not the trophies or medals but to fight and take one more step.
I’m doing what I can with what I have.
I seek all I can learn. Every day is a learning day.
There’s nothing more important than your health.
What is going to serve me and my genetics best?
I am fitter, stronger and healthier than I have ever been before.
Muscle is the currency for longevity.
When you set your mind to something that’s where you’ll settle.
When I lost my dad I felt I had really failed him.
I am humbled by the people I learn from, but I’m a generalist.

The Chatters and Megan draw forth a modern women’s multi-tasking role and how it impacts on burn out.  They also ask the hard questions of what do you want for your life, if you follow your joy what would you do next, what is your purpose, what is burnout and so many more questions.  Not only are there questions but wonderful solutions.

Quotes
There is a science and a practice on how to be well.
We are all leaders and all followers, and all have the capacity to be leaders.
Women have been taught to fit the male model.
I am an early riser.
A lot of women are stressing to get by.
Only 8% said they’re thriving at work.
There is an epidemic of burnout for women.
Women do all of the things.
Stop defining and confining what the patriarchy is telling them.
We are in the greatest most challenging time of our lives.
Gen X thinks they can do everything and be super women.
We are a product of our environment.
There is such a need for men to have safe spaces to lower their armour and be vulnerable.
If you followed the joy what would you do next?
Women don’t think they have the time, space, energy or permission to do what they want.
We build our purpose we don’t find our purpose.
What if love is the language of leadership instead of fear?
Part of the feminine is rising in us all and with that comes a values shift.

It’s important to leverage technology the best way you can.
I offer a tool to meet people you would otherwise not get to meet.
I think you should go on at least one date a week.
No one needs to be a dating expert if you’re default is anxiety.

Being a great catch doesn’t make you one.
You are the CEO of your love life!
If it’s a gimmick it’s not a good idea.
The way to choose someone is more methodical.
Compatibility is determined by how he treats you over time.
Dating well is a way of being it’s not a desperate husband hunt.
I’m not a blind marriage advocate I am a happy marriage advocate.
Chemistry matters it takes time discipline and patience.
I’m not a blind optimist, I’m a realist.

Dr Anthea Todd is not even 30, she is a published author, chiropractor, she has done studies in Womens Health and Reproduction and is an incredible skateboarder who can, film, talk about health and skate through the busy streets of where she lives.  The chatters are blown away by the calibre of insight, knowledge, experience this generation seems to have harnessed.  They are stepping up to the plate to help humanity and Anthea is one of them.  She will change the trajectory of  human health.  Her fundamentals of health include a well functioning nervous system, healthy metabolism, blood sugar regulation and the need for nutrients.  Her book What’s My Body Telling Me is a must read for all seeking to become the co-creators of their own health and wellbeing.  The Chatters had many aha’s and questions for this incredible young lady.

Quotes
I come from a lineage of healers and became obsessed with what the body is telling you.
Everyone is so overwhelmed and confused.
You are taught there’s nothing wrong with you unless tests can prove it.
We are missing the warning signs, the whispers.
Is it normal? Or is your body trying to tell you something?
Our bodies are always giving us signs and we have to remember it is on our side.
You are alive, because your body is always looking out for you.
The things you can’t see create the things you can’t see.
You need to ask yourself, if your body has what it needs to function at its best.
Looking after your body should not be seen as another job.
We place too much emphasis on external things to fix us.
Use your mind as a resource and your body to make the decision.
Listen to all the little things.
Get quiet. Use your self-energy. Believe your body is always looking out for you. Ask it if there is anything it would like you to know?

Introduction

Dr Nelum Dharmapriya is in the chatters neck of the woods, but they had not heard about her until recently.  When people are on the same trajectory there seems to be an invisible connection that draws them together.  Nelum has been a GP for 20 years, but it wasn’t until her own health crisis that she realised that the diagnosis and medication route was not working for her and decided to research and try something new.  She read the Obesity Code by Dr Jason Fung and it made sense.  She chose 4 strategies, she prioritised Real Food, prioritised protein, went low carb and added healthy fats.

She realised that perhaps her patients would improve if she also helped them with these priorities.  Dr Nelum began Whole Food Revolution where she teaches her patients the basics of good eating but also ensures their mindset is set for the changes ahead.  1 day workshops help people through the process.

Quotes
People knew what to do but couldn’t do it.
I was taught to diagnose and treat
Snoring could be excess fat in the tongue due to visceral fat.
Brown fat is in the mitochondria and generates heat.
4 Strategies; Real food, prioritise protein, low carb and add healthy fats
Mindset was important.

Introduction

Our guest today is Cameron Borg, a 27 year old man, wise beyond his years.  Listen in as we ask questions about his life, his study and his job as a pulmonary scientist and of course his second love Rikki Flow Nutrition Podcast.  You won’t want to miss this one.

Cameron Borg is a qualified nutritionist, pulmonary scientist, podcaster and health coach. He has spent the best part of the last decade learning about why our health is deteriorating and what we need to do in order to mend it. He has worked with hundreds of clients on the foundational aspects of their health to allow them to build and optimize their health from the ground up.

Quotes
You can be your own doctor if you are paying attention
What you eat can change the way you feel and impact your life
You can learn more from one good book than three years of university
I loved being one on one,
I’m going in the complete opposite to the conventional way
If you really listen to a patient they will tell you what is going on
People rarely change by being told what to do they can only be through making your own mistakes
Vegetarianism is like a right of passage for those interested in nutrition
I was in an intellectually vulnerable space when veganism was introduced to me.
Listening to Dr Jack Kruse when the whole facade fell away and I realised there was so much more to this than food.
If you are concerned about animals you should also be concerned for yourself.
There is so much more to meat equals bad
Without seafood we do not have big brains this gives DHA.
I needed to be slapped across the face and did that privately (on veganism)
There is no time space only conscious agents and realism
The most reliable effect is the placebo effect and drug companies have to beat it, everything is measured against it.
You must make mistakes in order to get to where you are.
