Every episode of Shiny Healthy You in the one place to make back-to-back listening a breeze.
Episode 57: Katherine Maslen – On modern naturopathy, Dr Google, and THAT doTerra essential oil controversy
Meet Katherine Maslen – fellow naturopath, nutritionist, author, speaker… and a bit of a renegade when it comes to the health scene.
She’s been featured on the Today show on Channel 9, ABC radio, Wellbeing, Good Health and Marie Claire magazines. She still works in clinical practice, but these days she’s also on a mission to change the way that people think about health, through speaking engagements, media appearances and her blog.
I’ve brought her on the show because she’s known around the naturopathic traps as one THE go-to practitioners. She’s also caused a wee bit of controversy in recent times.
We chat about the benefits and the dangers of getting your health info from Google, Facebook or health forums.

Episode 55: An important announcement
Can you believe my podcast turns one this week? So much has happened in the past 12 months at Shiny Healthy You HQ – it’s actually kinda mind-blowing. I recap the past year and remind you of my favourite podcast e
Episode 54: Amanda Campbell – On MS, Autoimmunity and Kinesiology
Meet Amanda Campbell from Bend Like Bamboo. She’s a passionate kinesiologist with a special interest in autoimmune conditions. You see, when Amanda was in her 20’s, she was diagnosed with MS, and autoimmune condition that many would consider to be a life sentence.
From hardcore steroids and months spent in rehab in hospital, to finally being able to wriggle her toes, and then learning to walk again, Amanda’s road to recovery looks like a long and arduous uphill struggle. Then she discovered kinesiology, mindset changes and wholefood eating, and this became her turning point for transformation.

Episode 53: Rachael Kable – Mindfulness for Busy Women
Mindfulness… We all know we should do it, but how many of us actually consciously practice it every day? All too often we can get caught up in our daily tasks and struggles, and forget to take the time to bring awareness to simple actions that can create balance and relaxation.
Enter Rachael Kable. Her podcast, The Mindful Kind, is consistently at the top of the iTunes charts, and with good reason – the short, bite-sized episodes are full of actionable take-aways, delivered in a gentle, calming way.

Episode 52: Rebecca Sullivan – The Art of the Natural Home
Meet Rebecca Sullivan – an eco-activist, food writer, urban farmer, and amazing cook. She’s passionate about preserving our heritage and passing on time-honoured traditions in the home that she refers to as “granny skills.”
She’s just released a new book, all about the art of making beautiful, simple products from scratch. It’s called The Art of the Natural Home, and I’ve got her on the show this week to find out more…

Episode 51: Jessica Murnane – Managing Endometriosis with a Plant Based Diet
Meet Jessica Murnane – a passionate cook, recipe creator, podcaster… and endometriosis thriver. I came across her show “One Part Podcast” on iTunes recently and just LOVED her inspiring, optimistic and non-judgemental style when it comes to health and the foods she chooses to eat.
It takes women an average of 10 years to be diagnosed with endometriosis (Jessica went to a multitude of doctors who never picked it up), and it’s still one of the most misdiagnosed conditions out there. Jessica tells us the signs and symptoms to look out for and shares tips on how to get formally diagnosed. If you have trouble with your periods, her advice is to seek out help – don’t just accept it as being normal.

Episode 50 – Healing Chronic Fatigue
This week’s episode is a big one, because it’s actually my 50th episode of the Shiny Healthy You podcast, woohoooo!!! It’s also a big episode in a different way because it’s quite a personal one.
If you would prefer to listen to this post (Healing Chronic Fatigue) as a podcast, it’s now available by clicking the links below:
Episode 49: Penny Murden – Coming Back from Chronic Fatigue
Today’s guest started out as a client and ended up as a friend. She was one of the first women to join my Shiny Healthy You program, and I had the privilege of watching her go from strength to strength. From chronic fatigue to recently conquering (for the second time) an EPIC mountain bike event in New Zealand, this is one focused woman who knows what she wants and once she gets her eyes on the prize, you know she’s going to smash through all kinds of barriers.
I’ve brought her on the podcast today to show you that it CAN be done – it IS possible to get back on track after chronic fatigue. Not only that, but we’re going to pick her brain as to HOW she stayed on track.
Listen, as we cover Penny’s 3 pillars to better health. Find out how she went from chronic pain and illness to not taking a single painkiller in 6 months. Listen to the compelling story of her comeback to fitness, and how she went from rock bottom to getting back to mountain biking, snowboarding, and so much more.
Epiosde 48: Chara Caruthers – Yoga For Everybody
If you’re a fan of this podcast, or if you’ve done my Shiny Healthy You 12 week program, then you will probably already know and love yoga teacher and yoga therapist Chara Caruthers. She appeared in Episode 21, where we talked about all things Ayurveda. But in this episode, I’ve got her back in to chat about one of my favourite pastimes – and that’s yoga!
Yoga is so much more than a series of poses.
If you’re going to a typical yoga class, that’s just one aspect of yoga. Chara takes us through the deeper meaning of yoga as a system for living our best possible lives. By tuning into our own inner voice, and when we begin to detach ourselves from all our cultural conditioning, we truly start to realise what is really us, and what are just stories that we’re running in our own heads.
We also talk about the concept of the yoga mat as being a mirror to truly see ourselves, and how to break through the self-criticism and comparisons that inevitably come up during a class. (Yep – it happens to ALL of us!).
Want to connect with this amazing woman? (Of course you do, right?)

Chara can also be found on social media. (Guaranteed to have no skinny-beach-upside-down-on-a-rock-poses!)
Episode 47: Fouad Kassab – Life-Changing Food
Meet Fouad Kassab – a man on a mission to bring us back in touch with real food.
Growing up in a war-torn country, Fouad spent his formative years hunkered down in bomb shelters and living on processed food rations provided by international aid. When his health started to suffer, he was put on countless rounds of antibiotics, as there were no other alternatives available.
Fast forward to 2001, and he migrated to Australia from Lebanon. He was drawn to the restaurant industry, and became one of Australia’s first food bloggers, with a website simply named “The Food Blog.”
Throughout this time his health still suffered. After years of being overweight, yo-yo dieting, acne, eczema and medications, he became fed up with the mainstream medical system. He discovered a new way of living that involved paleo food and gut healing, and he’s never looked back.
