For energy.

Movement isn’t meant to punish you 🧡

So many exhausted bodies think the answer is more. More workouts, more intensity, more pushing.

But depleted bodies don’t need smashing… they need support.

In today’s episode, we’re talking about movement as a foundation of health:
✨ why consistency beats intensity
✨ why movement should leave you feeling more alive, not wiped
✨ how walking, strength training, Pilates and gentle movement all count
✨ and why doing movement you actually enjoy is the key to sticking with it

This episode is for anyone who feels guilty about not “doing enough”, or who’s lost their rhythm with movement altogether.

One of the most underrated sleep supports is morning light exposure 🌅

Getting outside early in the day helps set your body clock, which can make falling asleep and staying asleep easier later on.

Sleep support often starts well before bedtime🧡

Sleep is not optional! 😴

If you are exhausted but wired at night, waking unrefreshed, or feeling like broken sleep is just “part of life” right now, this episode is for you.

In today’s episode of the Foundatuons Mini Series in The Nature & Nurture Podcast, I talk about why sleep matters so much, what’s happening in the body when it’s disrupted, and gentle realistic ways to support better rest, especially for parents!

This isn’t about chasing perfect sleep. It’s about supporting your body to rest and repair.

We’re starting 2026 with the foundations 🌱

So many people jump straight to supplements or fixes, but when the basics aren’t supported, everything feels harder.

In today’s episode on The Nature & Nurture Podcast, I’m kicking off a foundations mini series and starting with nourishment. Not dieting, not perfection, just giving your body the fuel it needs to function well.

Here are a few gentle ways to increase your fibre intake, without overwhelming your gut:

1️⃣ Increase fibre gradually:
Slow and steady really matters here. Increasing fibre too quickly can lead to bloating and gas, so give your gut time to adjust as you go.

2️⃣ Aim for 30+ different plant foods each week:
Variety is key for gut health. Try keeping a simple tally of different plant foods across the week, the diversity is often more important than the exact amount.

3️⃣ Leave the skin on where you can:
A lot of fibre lives in the skin of plant foods, so keeping it on can help boost both soluble and insoluble fibre intake.

4️⃣ Swap to wholegrains:
Simple swaps like brown rice, wholegrain bread or wholemeal pasta can make a meaningful difference over time.

5️⃣ Add seeds regularly:
Sprinkling seeds onto meals is an easy way to increase fibre. Flax, chia, pumpkin, h**p, sunflower and sesame all count.

If you’ve got a sensitive gut, remember that fibre needs to be individualised. What works well for one person may need adjusting for another 🧡

Back to basics 🌱
I’m kicking off a podcast mini series all about the pillars of health ~ the foundations that actually move the needle when you’re tired of chasing fixes.
First episode drops Monday 🎧

17/01/2026

Hello 2026! 🎉

I recorded this episode as a bit of a check in, sharing where I am at, what’s been happening behind the scenes, and what’s coming next in the podcast.

If you are feeling a little pressure to have your year figured out already, this one’s for you! I talk about gentler goals, breaking big intentions into bite-sized pieces, rebuilding habits without overwhelm, and why doing the basics well often matters more than doing more!

I also share a few clinic updates and give you a sneak peak into the foundation series kicking off next week. It’s going to be a deep dive into the pillars of health that so many of us skip past when life feels busy.

My process for falling back in love with movement again. It’s all about consistency over intensity 🧡

So many people delay getting help because they think they should cope a bit longer, try one more thing, or wait until it’s worse.

Support doesn’t have to start at rock bottom.
You’re allowed to ask for help earlier than that.

Sometimes the next step isn’t trying harder, it’s having someone help you make sense of it all.

Support can start wherever you’re at.

Clinical Naturopath in Whittlesea or Upper Ferntree Gully, or book Telehealth Australia-wide. Discovery sessions, consults and long-term health support packages.

Starting the day slowly isn’t necessarily laziness.
For many of us, it’s essential nervous system care.
This is how I chose to begin my day before a productive admin afternoon 🧡
