The Live Life Well Podcast for Busy Women

As busy women our relationship with alcohol can be a complicated one. We are living lives that our bodies and minds weren't designed to cope with and alcohol can provide a short term relief to the pressure and overwhelm but what is the cost to our long term wellbeing?

Join me as I dig in to all of this and more with wellbeing and sobriety coach Christine Coulson who gave up alcohol after noticing her consumption creep up over lockdown. Christine now uses her journey to help other women on their journey to reducing or cutting out alcohol.

Hear how stress and hormones can play a part in how much we drink, and how we can experience life in a whole knew way when we choose to do it sober.

Please know that this is a safe place to explore topics like this without shame and judgement, we are all on a journey but with the right information we can make the best decisions to live a long and healthy life!

How do we heal our brains? And how do they get broken in the first place?

We can all pick up scars throughout our lives through our past experiences, disappointments and trauma. These all leave an impression on our brain and can affect our thoughts and nervous system.

Join me as I chat to Energy Expert, Author and Alexander Technique Teacher about how, with the right environment and community we can move out of cycles of shame and survival mode and start to heal the scars and find health and hope for the future.

Lucy also explains how the language we use for ourselves or others can heal or harm us, and how connection is key to holistic health.

Lucy has a wealth of experience and knowledge in helping people find body, mind and soul health and I found our chat fascinating - I know you will too!

Join me as I chat to health & productivity coach Sarah-Jane Ladums from the Fit Productive Mum podcast as we discuss some important issues we face as busy women.

Sarah-Jane shares her journey from burnt out teacher to building healthy habits which allow her to be a fit, productive mum herself.

We also dig in to the topic of cycle tracking - something like me you might have heard about or be interested in but don't know lots about.

Sarah-Jane talks us through the different stages and seasons of our 4 week menstrual cycle, how each phase affects us and how we can take care of ourselves in each stage. Listen to how you can eat and move and rest to give your body what it needs to feel its best, and to notice if something isn't normal.

Our hormones play such an important role in our physical and mental health and we need to be having these conversations to know that we are not alone in what we experience and how we can advocate for our needs as women,

Join me as I put that right with wellness practitioner and fitness and life coach Kerry Riley.

Kerry is so full of passion for women to thrive through fitness, you won't be able to help but be inspired as you listen!

Kerry shares the mental and physical benefits of fitness, how she fits it in to her busy schedule and gets her whole family involved and makes it fun, and how she has had to pivot and overcome set backs through periods of illness and use those times of change for good.

You can keep up with Kerry on social at Kerry Riley Wellness and at www.kerryrileywellness.co.uk

It would be great to see you in person!

We've probably all been there - feeling overwhelmed, overstimulated and exhausted. We know we can't live in this stress state but we don't know how to break the cycle.

Thankfully we have nutrition and wellness coach Elise Stewart from Nourish and Wild join us to equip us to break free from the tired and wired cycle!

Elise talks about 'intentional recovery' and how we need to get back to basics and make rest and good habits non-negotiables in order to start to heal our burnt out nervous systems and really live life well.

Elise shares some micro habits and small changes we can make that will have a big impact on how we feel, as well as talking about how nutrition, strength training and sleep can help us move from tired but wired to thriving and well!

I know that you will love listening back to this conversation and can't wait to hear how you start to implement some of Elise's tips!
