When I first became a mother, I was overwhelmed by the responsibility of nourishing my little one, especially during the postpartum period. It was through this journey that I discovered the importance of nutrition for both my baby and myself. In this eye-opening episode, we had the pleasure of speaking with Fiona Agius, a certified Holistic Nutrition Consultant and the founder of Mother Nurtured, who shares her expert insights on postpartum nutrition, health and wellbeing.
As a fellow mom of two, Fiona opens up about her journey from a marketing background to pursuing her passion for nutrition during her maternity leave. We discuss the challenges of balancing studies, parenthood, and business, and how the skills she gained in her previous career have been invaluable in her new path.
Fiona's wealth of knowledge becomes evident as we explore the essential aspects of postpartum nutrition, from building balanced meals and honouring hunger cues to making mindful choices while eating out. Her tips for self-care habits and adopting a holistic approach to wellness during this critical period are not to be missed. So grab a healthy snack, get comfortable, and tune in to this enlightening conversation that will leave you inspired to prioritise your own nutrition and wellbeing during the beautiful yet challenging journey of motherhood.
