We have more specialists than ever before, yet we are sicker than ever before. That’s why I am thrilled to bring you this week’s show, because it’s a story of two practitioners. This is a treat if you are a parent and: 

• You’re struggling to pinpoint what your child’s breathing, behavioural, focus, congestion, crooked teeth or headache issues are stemming from when you’ve tried lots of things.
• You think there might be a link between an ‘event’ and your child’s current issues (a fall, a trauma, a bone break…)
• You want the money you spend on your child’s teeth (it’s a LOT these days!) to actually amount to solutions and lasting results. 
• You crave a new paradigm where we move away from the world where we’re sicker than ever, we have more specialists than ever, and you hate the merry-go-round you’ve been on with your kid, spending lots with few results
• You love big-picture thinking when it comes to health
• You want to have more empowered conversations about your child’s health with your primary care doctor or dentist and be better versed in issues that could be at play. 

Share it far and wide with parents you know, and I’ll also say, super useful for adults who’ve had long-term musculoskeletal or dental/jaw structure issues to look at the bigger picture for yourself, too. - Enjoy the show, Alexx x

Quantum Biology is the study of teeny tiny, complicated subatomic particles and energy that blow your mind. Being a beneficiary of it can be as simple as standing watching the sunrise or sunset or walking barefoot in the ground. 

So, if you’ve been daunted in the past, today that ends as we deep dive into this topic with Dr Catherine Clinton, naturopathic physician and Quantum Biology educator helping you understand what the most accessible, truest form of medicine is, and how to make it a part of your life that you connect deeply to and start to seek out. We discuss

• The science - what we know and what we’re coming to understand about our biology
• Coherence - how everything is connected in nature and what ‘tuning in’ feels like
• How your quantum biology check-list becomes a want to; a necessity and not another ‘set of things you have to do for your health’
• What medicine can you start administering from today, without spending an extra cent on your health?

Allergies - Nearly 1 in 5 kids has an environmental allergy today, and nearly 1 in 10 has a food allergy. While these differ from person to person in severity, they are a challenge on the mental load, in the home and even more so out and about. My good friend and one of my favourite doctors in the world - she’s SO DANG SMART - Dr Elisa Song @healthykids_happykids and I deep dive into the reason so many families are dealing with allergies and in this comprehensive show, we explore: 

• The biggest factors playing into how we got here with allergies and poor gut health.
• How the gut microbiome has changed in 100 years and what species we know are critical to healthy histamine and mast cell ‘flexibility’ as we grow. 
• How to be better informed when it comes to antibiotics and how to talk to your doctor
• Testing and screening options
• Therapeutics - conventional and holistic
• The SOS game vs the long game - building resilient health and regulated responses to what we eat and what we’re exposed to in our environments. 

It is PACKED. I usually say go for a walk in nature, but if your reality is dealing with allergies, it’s PAPER-AND-PEN day today! 

I hope it’s useful for you and people you love - share it far and wide + if you want to hear the first show we did together look up show #85 on the childhood epidemics of our times. It’s also a doozy full of practical wisdom. 

And the link to pre-order Elisa’s truly excellent new book is in the bio - her work is seminal in the way she’s put everything together in here. Bravo Doc!

This show is all about emotions. As Cedric Bertelli, founder of the Emotional Health Institute, explains, our culture is obsessed with trying to control our emotions. It turns out however, it is this desire to control our emotions that inadvertently prevents many of us from developing emotional resilience. So, in this show, we unpack: 

• How our responses to situations are often formed from events a long time in our past
• Why emotions don’t make sense and trying to make them make sense is futile
• What happens in our conscious and subconscious at a point of trauma and how can it form long-term imprints? 
• How phobias can be overcome - and it’s not about ‘overcoming’ them. 
• How we can break life-long emotional patterns that things like talk therapy haven’t helped us resolve?

It is a fascinating exploration of memories, trauma and emotions, and how we can break unhelpful loops we might be stuck in, and I hope you or someone you know finds it to be as interesting and helpful as I did.

What is Frugality felt good? What if it was about abundance and positive mental health and a great contribution to wasting less and doing more of what you love? 

Well… that is what Jen and Jill from Frugal Friends Podcast have made it about and I love it so much I’ve recorded a show with them. We discuss: 

• Why the negative connotation of frugality and how to flip the script in your life? 
• How does one start to think about living frugally in a way that doesn’t conjure 1 jar with a year’s plastic, making everything from scratch wearing a linen dress in the woods and homeschooling your kids if the stereotype doesn’t resonate? 
• What got you both feeling frugal? Did you grow up that way? A crisis? Awakening?
• Frugal in the kitchen, walk us through your fave ideas that you love to get people onto when they’re exploring/trying to change
• Frugality with appliances and fixing things 
• Frugal living with kids who want ‘all the things like their friends have!’ - how can we make it a potentially positive experience in raising kids? 
• Frugal success - little by little? Personal priorities? Best ways to make change stick?

And so much more. I hope you love it as much as we enjoyed having this conversation.

Lisa Mosconi PhD, renowned neuroscientist with over 200 published papers, says: Menopause is having a moment. She’s right, and she’s written the book to meet that moment. The Menopause Brain, a book being celebrated around the world. Gen X has arrived mid-life, with all the state-of-flux symptoms that come with peri-menopause and menopause and said: Enough! Why are we not talking about this? Why are we being gaslit in Dr’s offices for our symptoms and being offered multiple medications for anxiety, depression and pain, but not having a conversation about what might help us far more, due to outdated medical research claims of overblown HRT risks? We also have been robbed of the exciting potential for embracing the rite of passage into a new chapter, from a spiritual and personal growth perspective. We discuss: 

• Menopause is not a disease, and it’s not just ‘aging’ - it is a neuro-endocrine transition: A biological event
• What’s happening during this transition and why sex hormones aren’t just sex hormones
• The risks that increase from midlife for women including a discussion around Alzheimer’s Disease
• The benefits of ‘getting to the other side’ from a resilience and cognition perspective. 
• Was HRT risk ‘fear’ in the late 20th Century overblown? 
• Lifestyle considerations to support us during our transition
• Validation for your own experience: A critical piece in the transition

How intentionally do you design your life? 

In this show, that’s what we’re talking about with Chris Guillebeau, who’s a New York Times bestselling author of The $100 Startup, Side Hustle, The Happiness of Pursuit, and other books. During a lifetime of self-employment that included a four-year commitment as a volunteer executive in West Africa, he visited every country (193 in total) before his 35th birthday. Chris designed his life from an early age and loves showing people who feel called to a more unconventional path, potential ways forward - my favourite thing about Chris and why I brought him to us? No Guru complex. There’s a beautiful, gentle style while also calling on us to expose our own hard truths and tap into our gifts. He’s a great encourager in a world of protocols, critics and clickbait, leading us towards something deeper with this one precious life. 

I hope you love it

Alexx

If you spoke from the heart, what would it say? If you acted from the heart what would you do? Dr Neha Sangwan wants us to deeply understand the health benefits of better communication with the self and with others. And so, on this show, we do exactly that, complete with role plays and practical scenarios that you can apply from today!

Communication and its role in health

How we can know if we’re “stuffing down” things we want to say.

How that might show up in the body and mind over time 

What we can start to do to become effective communicators and not ‘let things slide’ that fester, and more. 

Wow. wow. Wow. Make the time and change your life, is all I have to say about this week’s show.

Question: Have you found a way to enjoy movement or is it a chore? Lizzie Williamson brings joy and positive vibes into every room she enters, and today, she’s here to talk about not only how key movement is for our health, but movement as a joyful thing to do and finding that joy through movement, in a culture that often sees movement as a ‘have to’ and something one has to try and find ‘motivation’ for. We flip the script on today’s show.

We talk about: 

• Language matters when it comes to movement
• Motivation: It’s not what you need to start moving, it’s what you GET
• Workplaces and movement
• Common excuses: “I don't have time to exercise”
• Movement when it all feels challenging - depression, new parents, perimenopause, injury…Lizzie shares how it was a key piece of her post-natal depression healing. 
• Joy: The missing piece! 
• What to do when you just don’t want to

And a few brilliant tips in her second book: The Active Work Day Advantage!
