Conceiving a baby is a two person job and - when it comes to getting pregnant - it's what we do in the months prior that can make the biggest difference.

Spoiler alert.. this doesn't have anything to do with how deep you can go in your downward dog. No friends, we're talking about *internal* flexibility as it relates to how able your body is to adapt and utilise fuel for energy. We chat about the red flags that indicate your metabolic flexibility needs some help, share some of our go-to guidelines on how to get MORE metabolically flexible, and also tell some entirely unrelated but hopefully entertaining stories. Enjoy! INTERESTED IN CONNECTI...
endometriosis. While endo is absolutely real and deserves air time, it's not the only reason periods can be painful. We explore what’s considered normal versus not normal when it comes to menstrual discomfort, and why a one-size-fits-all approach to managing it often falls short. Nat dives into the importance of a multi-modality approach to finding relief—addressing everything from hormonal balance to the nervous system and pain pathways, and how these influence the intensity and persistence ...
In this episode, we’re diving into all things Candida—what it is, what actually causes it to become a problem, and why so many people are confused about how to treat it.

In this heartwarming and deeply honest chat, Nat sits down with NKD Senior Naturopath Georgie Duncan to talk about her personal experience of preconception and pregnancy—this time not as the practitioner, but as the patient. With years of experience supporting others through complex fertility and pregnancy journeys, Georgie shares what it was like to be on the other side of the table. From the emotional shifts and expectations she had to let go of, to the surprising decisions she made along t...
Whilst there are some people at either end of the spectrum - at one end we have vegans, and the other we have those following the carnivore or lion diet - most of us we fall somewhere in the middle as far as red meat intake goes. That being said, there's a lot of conflicting info around whether red meat is good or bad for you, and much debate on how much is too much - which can leave us with questions and concerns about the volume we might be consuming. Understandable, given what's at STEAK *...
Calling all of our TTC friends - if you're relying on OPKs (ovulation predictor kits) to tell when you're ovulating, this episode is for you. Whilst we do know that OPKs can be one of many tools in the conception journey, you do need to understand what they really mean, their limitations and therefore the context in which they should be viewed. We're here to help make your journey to getting pregnant clearer so we break down how to tell if you're REALLY ovulating (and other signs to ind...
