#77: There's more to healing than a pro-metabolic diet with Kate Deering

Uncategorized Dec 17, 2021

In this podcast, Kate and I get deep and personal. We share aspects of our stories and how emotional stress and our thoughts have affected health.

A lot of women think if they get their training and nutrition down pat, everything will be great.....and yes it's a great start and definitely foundational when it comes to healing but there is more to health than just the physical.

So, if you’re doing everything right but things aren’t falling into place like you thought, give this episode a listen.

You aren’t alone. We all struggle, we experience shame, and beat ourselves up from time to time.

The truth is there is ALWAYS going to be stress in your life, and finding ways to build our resilience and navigate through it is so important for obtaining health, happiness, and balance.

Happy listening I hope you find this podcast helpful and don't forget to take a screenshot of the episode and share it on Instagram stories and tag me at @kittyblomfield. Each month I...

#76: Update to falling pregnancy at 40 with Kitty Blomfield

Uncategorized Dec 12, 2021

This is the first solo podcast I’ve ever done!

I wanted to do this to provide a quick update on my falling pregnant at 40 journey. I’ve had so many people ask me how it’s going and to share more about it so I thought I’d hop on and update everyone.

The 18 months have been one of self-discovery, to say the least.

When I set my sights on something, I’m all in, and trying to fall pregnant was no different....which in this case was to my detriment.

This is one of the most raw and vulnerable podcasts I've ever recorded.

I share everything from my anxiety, to sleepless nights, to feeling like a complete failure.

Happy listening I hope you find this podcast helpful and don't forget to take a screenshot of the episode and share it on Instagram stories and tag me at @kittyblomfield. Each month I choose someone who has shared and they get a tub of Saturée Premium Collagen valued at $79.

#75: Constipation is a metabolic issue with Emma Sgourakis

Uncategorized Dec 07, 2021

It’s probably best if you aren’t eating for this one. So, put your fork down and get ready to find out how you can improve the all-too-common problem of constipation and start pooing regularly.

Prior to meeting Emma, I actually wouldn’t go to the bathroom for 2-3 days at a time. I just thought this was normal (it’s not), and I see so many women having the same issue. But really, there’s nothing more satisfying than a good poo! You just feel lighter and less weighed down. There are also a heap of reasons why it’s important to go regularly.

In this episode, we talk about:

How constipation is linked to low metabolic function

Why it’s important to have one or more bowel movements per day

What happens when you don’t go

Why common recommendations to improve constipation don’t actually fix the root cause

Tips for improving digestion and eliminating constipation

What foods you should reduce

The importance of movement...

#74: Losing 14kgs & beating Hashimotos with Margie & Sarah

Uncategorized Nov 26, 2021

Many women who struggle with autoimmune conditions make things worse by doing all the crazy diets as they try to lose weight and feel better. This is why I wanted to have Margie (a long-time client turned big sister in the WinAtLife program) and her niece, Sarah, on the podcast.

Both Margie and Sarah have autoimmune conditions. Margie has spondylosis arthritis, and Sarah has Hashimotos. Yet, they’ve both managed to put their autoimmune conditions into remission.

Looking at Margie, you would have no idea she is 56 years old. She has amazing skin, great hair, and looks incredible (which she attributes to all the liver, collagen, oysters, and other great food she’s been eating). Sarah is a 36-year-old, single mum, who is studying part-time, and so far, has lost 14 kgs in our program. What these two women have achieved is so amazing, so I wanted to get them on here and share their incredible stories in hopes to inspire others to do the same.

In this episode, we chat...

#73: Misconceptions surrounding peri-menopause and menopause and what your doctor didn't tell you with Kate Deering

Uncategorized Nov 20, 2021

Our friend Kate Deering, the author of Heal Your Metabolism and just all round awesome human, is back! If you haven’t read her book How to heal your metabolism I highly recommend it.

We attract women of all ages into our Winatlife program but a large chunk of them are in their 40's and 50's and many of them suffer from perimenopausal and menopausal symptoms.

Things like hot flushes, night sweats, mood swings, vaginal dryness and weight gain.

Through diet and lifestyle changes we've not only helped them improve all their symptoms but also lose weight.

They didn't have to cut sugar, carbs, dairy or do a tonne of cardio to get these results.

Kate is almost 50 years old, and I turned 40 in January this year. So, we decided to sit down and talk about what is actually happening in the body during this time, the misconceptions surrounding it, what your doctor didn't tell you and how to support the body during this time of life.

In this episode, we discuss:

#72: Debunking common preconception and pregnancy myths with Loren & Brit

Uncategorized Nov 18, 2021

A few months ago I sat down with Loren and Brit creators of Conscious conception - the ultimate guide to prepping for pregnancy.

I’ve actually had a lot of messages asking me about whether I'm still trying to conceive so I I’m planning to sit down and record a solo podcast in the next few weeks with an big update. It's been a very interesting 12 months, it’s been super challenging and it's probably one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do.

So if you’ve been wondering where I'm at look out for that podcast I’ll release it in the next few weeks.

When Brit and Loren released their course I was lucky enough to be one of a handful of people to go through it before it before it was released and I was so impressed.

I often get asked questions about what to eat and how to train not only while preparing for pregnancy but also while pregnant so I thought it would be a great opportunity to get them on to discuss preparing for pregnancy and to...

#70: Healing pounds: Are they necessary and how much is too much? with Libby Wescombe and Craig McDonald

Uncategorized Oct 31, 2021

One thing I love about the pro-metabolic community is that I’ve made so many new friends.

Everyone is just so friendly and supportive, probably because they eat carbs and sugar

I’ve actually got this great chat group going in Whatsapp with @libbywescombe, @amykatebowe and @leilalutz.

I've had all of them on the podcast so if you haven't listened to their episodes I recommend you do.

They’re not only super knowledgeable but just awesome women.

We pretty much chat daily and I often hear Libby and Craig have little rants about the same things which makes me laugh

But in all seriousness I love how passionate and knowledgeable they are about all things training and body composition change.

One thing I hear both of them talk about quite a lot is all the women that come into their programs who have gained a lot of weight after transitioning to a pro-metabolic diet because they believe they need healing pounds.

So I thought I ‘d get them on to talk...

#69: Plant based diets: Are they the healthy choice or just a front for disordered eating with Chlo Catherine

Uncategorized Oct 20, 2021

Chlo is a Dynamic Eating Psychology Coach and Therapeutic Nutrition Counselor. She has an inspiring story and comes from a pretty intense vegan and disordered eating background. She spent 11 years battling her body suffering from orthorexia, anorexia, amenorrhea and exercise addiction.

Once she found pro-metabolic eating and added animal products back into her diet she got her period back, restored her metabolism and transformed her relationship with food.

Today, Chlo lives on this huge property in California with her family. They make their own jam and have their own beehives and chickens.

She’s super passionate about helping women heal their relationship with food and their bodies, restore their metabolisms, break free from restrictive diets and get their periods back.

I get a lot of questions from women about going vegan or plant based so I thought I'd get Chlo on the show to discuss the downfalls of these diets and why they really aren't that healthy.

#68: Finding fulfillment with Vic Hoskin and Nicole Wagner

Uncategorized Oct 13, 2021

8 years ago I worked on a mine site for a large blue chip mining company. It was a FIFO role where I only worked 5 months of the year, I was paid well and I had amazing benefits.

BUT I wasn't happy, I didn't feel fulfilled and I knew I needed to leave but I felt trapped because I was paid so well and I was scared to start again.

Then I met Craig and found we had a shared love for training and nutrition PLUS he was also unhappy in his job.

So after 6 months together we decided to buy into a failing gym and leave our current jobs.

Some people thought I was crazy

Things didn't work out with our business partner so we bought her out and I remember lying in bed one night thinking what the Fk have I done

In the last 8 years we’ve lost money and made many mistakes, but we came out the other side, we put the work in, and today, we have the privilege of being able to do what we’re passionate about.

I love helping other women, and I can truly say that our company...
