Wow, what a deep dive conversation on all things fertility, hormone balance and burnout in mothers with Kirstie Vesseur, a clinical nutritionist.
Kirsty has such practical advice because she’s actually LIVED through a lot. A trigger warning - Kirstie talks about her experience with abortion and eating disorders so just for those who are sensitive around those topics to be wary.
Here’s a run down of what we talk about and some of the takeaways.
- Kirstie takes us through her fertility journey - from an abortion, through an eating disorder, struggling with hormonal symptoms, to finally falling pregnant wqith her now 3 year old daughter (after a LOT of struggle and learning!). Her journey is intense and she’s so brave for sharing her story.
- She chats through her thoughts around the root cause of her eating disorder and what she now does to release stuck emotions. Reflects on the impacts of not having any psychological counselling after abortion. In short - how trauna in the body results in addiction.
- What did Kirsty do to get her hormones back on track!? You’ll have to listen to the podcast to find out…
- Laura’s addiction to butter….!
- The simple fact that women are often trying to do tooo much, have too high expectations on themselves or don’t have the support they need… which results in BURNOUT. What boundaries do they need to set and what support can you ask for?
- Loved Kirstie’s perspective on parenting - learn about co-regulation
- ‘That Clean Life’ recipe database and Sophia loving curries!
