The mindset shifts, perspectives and powerful lifestyle changes and physical support to help get you through grief and big transitions in your life. The menstrual cycles phases and what they represent for us as women. Claire's fav ways to track her cycle and what method you should be wary of using alone when tracking your cycle. Main patterns to watch for in your menstrual cycle. How to honour your cycle with certain lifestyle practises throughout each phase. Powerful questions to ask yourself when checking in with yourself to track you cycle. How long to wait to see important patterns in your cycle.

Have you been told you have low iron? Or is this something you've been struggling with for months or years now? Even if it's not you personally, my guess is you know a sister, friend, mother or daughter who has at some point been 'iron deficient'. But there is more to the story. Like many areas when it comes to reading blood tests, it's worth digging a bit deeper to really understand your results. You may not actually be deficient in the first place. Even if you have a true iron deficiency, chances are your treatment is not actually helping you. In today's chat we cover: The important factors to consider with diet and testing, in your preconception phase. The importance of optimal iron in your body for women and in pregnancy, how this supports your growing baby. How to check your iron levels through testing. If you're being told your levels are low, why you should take a second look at your blood test results . The real markers and levels to look for to check for an iron deficiency. The underlying causes to real iron deficiency in women. What an iron infusion is, the dose of iron included and the health implications of this therapy. Stephs steps to holistically prevent and overcome iron deficiency. The important cofactors to support your body's use of iron in your body. Plus examples of foods and meals for healthy iron levels. ...........

Did you know what you place on your skin, ends up in your bloodstream? This is something I'm constantly reminding my girls when they attempt to draw on their skin. The movement of low-tox and body skin care products is starting to gain momentum as people are finding out about the harmful ingredients that make up their fav products. You're most likely aware of this for skin & body care products, but something that is often ignored is the fact that what you wear closest to your skin, can also impact your health, particularly your hormones. Did the penny just drop? Are you thinking about all the items that make up your wardrobe? Over the past couple of years, I've been much more conscious about the choices I make when purchasing clothes- opting for less, higher quality items, or those I will get the most wear from. But there'e something more important I'm looking at- the material it's made form. Today, I discuss an overlooked but incredibly important topic: the materials we surround ourselves with daily—our clothing, bedding, and even towels—and how they can impact hormone health. Plus, I share healthier, low-tox alternatives and practises that support your hormone health, fertility and so much more. ...

Did you know that Lindt & Sprüngli, the renowned Swiss chocolatier, is currently facing a class-action lawsuit in the United States concerning allegations of elevated levels of heavy metals lead and cadmium in its dark chocolate products.

When I first started out as a Naturopath I was working for another clinic and I was supporting women through the menopausal stage of life- with major flushes, mood swings and weight challenges. I saw it all. Personally my cycles are regular- they come & go with ease (something I've helped rebalance over the years). However as I approach my 38th birthday, I cant help but start to wonder...what will the years ahead look like for me? Peri-menopause, journeying into menopause and what will be supportive to help me through the phase of life. Yep, all topics included in todays podcast episode with the inspiring Terry Tateossian. Terry Tateossian is fitness & lifestyle coach, a personal trainer, nutritionist, hormone specialist, emotional eating coach, and podcast host of the How Good Can It Get Podcast.

I was shopping for a gift with my girls and we stumbled across a series of books- each one representing the individual zodiac signs. The books were aimed at children, so I thought it'd be nice to get one for each of us so the girls could understand a little about what being a cancer and Aquarius means. Truth is, I was also secretly excited to learn a little myself as my understanding of astrology is very basic. The girls have loved learning their star sign symbols, what the constellations look like in the nights sky and yes, they've even fought over wanting each other's birth gemstones. When it comes to the stars, it appears many of us are missing out on real nuggets of wisdom that could be guiding us to live an aligned, purposeful life. To help talk us through the fascinating topic of Vedic Astrology, I have with me the beautiful Zinzi Bianca. We cover: What inspired Zinc's love for Vedic Astrology Vedic Astrology 101 & what 'reading your chart' means What is Mercury Retrograde and how does it impact us?
