STNH 42: Tammy Guest - Living an Unrestricted Life
We live in an era where there are so many opportunities to create a business out of our passions. Where we can create a career model that fits the life we want to live, rather than fitting our lives around our work. Where "burnout" will no longer be a badge of honour, and "busy" is not a term to strive for. Whether you're a naturopath, nutritionist, working in the health and wellness industry, or passionate about something else entirely, what Tammy has to share is so relevant for all.

STNH 40: Vanessa Lamaro - Healthy periods over 35
Reproductive health spans much further than just having babies - it often determines your quality of life waaaay past the age of 35, 40, 45 and onwards. Sometimes at this age we get forgotten about in the medical system, because - if you’ve got period troubles but you’re not planning to get pregnant, just go on the pill and carry on, right? Hmmmm… I think we can do better than that. In this show I interview naturopath Vanessa Lamaro on the underlying causes of period issues in women over 35, including the truth behind heavy bleeding, pain and cycle length going completely out of whack.
STNH 39: Erin Lovell Verinder and Sarah Mann - Community Herbal Care
There are two types of people in the world - those that say “someone should do something about that,” and others that say “I am that someone.” This dream team of Erin Lovell Verinder and Sarah Mann is the latter. As the floods in Lismore and the Northern Rivers were still raging, they were mobilising. First with a callout to naturopaths and herbalists to please send through whatever donations they could manage of herbs and supplements, then the big companies, then investors to make it happen on a larger scale. And Community Herbal Care was born.

There’s been a “certain virus” on the loose for the last couple of years, and we’re seeing a LOT of people pulling up super rough from it. In the naturopathic world, we’ve been banging on about something called post viral fatigue for decades… which means we already have plenty of tools and learnings that we can apply to the current situation. But the Covid 19 pandemic has really taken things up a notch, and people are looking for natural solutions to long Covid. So let’s pick Daniel Baden's brain for some clinical GOLD.

STNH 35: REBECCA EDWARDS - NEW NATURAL SOLUTIONS FOR MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES
We are currently experiencing an epidemic of anxiety, depression and mental health issues. Over the last decade, we've learned so much from research into the gut-brain axis, and the importance of gut health in order to create good mental health. But there's so much more to it than that. In this episode we chat about the role of inflammation in anxiety, low mood and sleep disturbances, the role of the microbiome in mental health, and the latest research on which probiotic strains are the most effective in helping to improve symptoms.
STNH 34: REBECCA EDWARDS - WHY WE AREN’T ABSORBING IRON… AND WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT
Low iron is something that both doctors and naturopaths/nutritionists see a LOT of in clinic. And often, despite giving high doses of iron supplements, levels simply do not budge. It's so frustrating! So... is it just about finding the "right" type of iron to give to the patient? Or is there something else going on? Enter Rebecca Edwards and her incredible knowledge of the biochemistry of iron absorption, and the role of the microbiome (and targeted probiotic therapy) in helping turn the deficiency state around.
