This week it's just little old me again as I talk about the weird, frankly insane, stigma surrounding c-sections.
A lot of chat on my social media feed was about c-section this week so I thought I'd spend a bit of time going over the numbers;What % of women give birth via c-section in various countries?
What is the reason for most c-sections? (hint, it's not "too posh to push!!")
Why do doctors recommend c-sections for certain women? (hint; it's not "to make money"!)
What % of c-sections is elective? (it's a LOT lower than most people think..and even then there are usually very good reasons for it)I also talk about the "diastasis recti is an adaptation" argument a bit and compare it to Wolverine's claws. Very useful in a fight, not so much when you want to open a jar of peanutbutter.

This week I am delighted to be joined by Kayce Hodos as we're discussing perinatal mental health and why it's soo often overlooked as a natural part of pregnancy preparations.
Kayce is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor and Perinatal Mental Health Specialist who helps anxious and overwhelmed moms navigate motherhood with confidence. Drawing from her own experience with postpartum anxiety and 20 years in the mental health field, she cuts through unrealistic parenting advice to deliver evidence-based mindfulness strategies that actually work. Whether her clients are struggling with sleep deprivation, feelings of isolation, or questioning their abilities as a mom, Kayce offers the professional guidance and genuine understanding they need to thrive.
We discuss many things including;
Why mental health prep is as important, if not more, than buying the right car seat.
Why it is soo often overlooked.
Why I hate the term "baby blues".
How your partner can, and should, help. (and so should the rest of the village)
Why a second, or third, child is more difficult mentally than the first (Sounds obvious, doesn't it?)
Why not feeling an immediate connection with your child is completely normal!
Why parents of twins are the ones you talk to when you want REAL parenting stories.
And much, much more

I'm tying in with the wonderful "Adolescence" program on Netflix this week as I did an interview that I think a lot of people will love on a subject that the program touches on.
A couple of years ago I had the pleasure of talking to Daniel Sih; Daniel is an award winning author has written a tremendous book called "Raising Tech-Healthy Humans".
It's a practical handbook to help parents reset their children's tech-habits and give them a great start to life.
If you're concerned about your kid's social media/phone/tablet habits then this is the interview to listen to!
We're talking about many things including;
How to get an 8-year old off a tablet is a different process from teaching a 4-year old to use devices sensibly.
The difference between "lean-back" and "lean-in" technology and why it really matters.
How YouTube on the television is completely different from family movie night.
Why family technology time is a positive whereas spending time on the phone maybe isn't.
How to spot when your kid's tech-habits are becoming a problem.
How the technology, and social media, is DESIGNED to keep your child online so you as a parent have to be aware of what you're really up against.
YouTube is different when you're not signed in!
The physical, and developmental, effects of certain tech on your child.
The easiest ways to progress your child through the different forms of technology, and why you should slowly build up their exposure rather than just giving them access all in one go.
And much, MUCH, more
Daniel is a tremendous speaker and is very knowledgeable on this subject, if you're at all interested in what YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and everybody else online is doing to make sure your child is an avid consumer of their products, and how to make sure you teach your kids to use these tools properly, you will want to listen to this.

Every now and again I am lucky enough to talk to someone who educates me about a subject I know very little, or have preconceived ideas about.
This is one of those times.
I am very lucky to be joined by Linsey Knerl this week as we're talking home schooling.
Lynsey is the author of the Homeschool Hacks book" How to Give Your Kid a Great Education Without Losing Your Job (or Your Mind)" and she basically spent an hour explaining to me that homeschooling is soo much more than exhausted parents sitting around the kitchen table trying to drill knowledge into a child that doesn't want to learn. And that it's also not "crazy people telling their kids the dinosaurs never really existed".
She explains that homeschooling is not just for the Well-to-do, it can be done on a budget.
We're also talking about curriculums, the benefits of modern technology.
How you don't have to have all the knowledge yourself to homeschool, you just need the right network.
I learned a tremendous amount during this chat and I'm sure you too will gain a completely new take on home schooling.
And much, much more.

What exactly is it?
What are the benefits?
How does it work?
Did you know adoptive parents can experience similar physical symptoms after adoption as parents who gave birth do?
How to deal with the "sudden" arrival of a child when you haven't had 9 months to prepare.
Adopting as a single parent.
And much, much more.

This week I am delighted to be joined by Bev Mitelman M.A. as we discuss "Attachment Theory",
As I say several times throughout this podcast, this was an eye opening conversation for me.
Prior to becoming a Certified Attachment Practitioner and founding Securely Loved, Bev was an Executive Leader, University Lecturer and published author, having obtained her Masters' Degree in 2006.
She has dedicated her entire career (25+ years) working with adults in the realm of personal growth and professional development.
We discuss many things including;
What is attachment theory?
How do our early childhood relationships affect our adult ones?
How different generations might have different parenting styles (and how to overcome it hahaha)
How to build healthy relationships for yourself.
And much, MUCH, more.

This week I'm delighted to be joined by Brehan Crawford from Crawford Wellness as we discuss Traditional Chinese Medicine and the role it can play in your postpartum recovery.
Note; We're talking the REAL DEAL TCM, not the weird "let me sell you stuff you don't need" American style TCM!
Brehan has been practicing TCM for over 15 years;
In his 20s he started studying the philosophies and martial arts of Asia which led him to attend a Chinese Medicine school where he earned a Masters' degree in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine.
Unsatisfied with the pseudoscience and superficial clinical experience of American TCM school he sought out a residency with a doctor of TCM trained in China, spent five years learning to manage complex chronic cases under his supervision, and eventually traveled to China to study directly from master physicians and martial artists there.
Over fifteen years of clinical practice he has accumulated many patients' stories of recovery, including mysterious onset of illnesses; mistreatment, gaslighting or disregard by the conventional American medical system; dissatisfaction & outright fraud from alternative medicine providers; and ultimately how they find the most benefit from practices thousands of years old with a deep basis in traditional culture that have justification from modern scientific evidence.
We discuss many things;
The problem with American TCM
From the benefits of Traditional practices such as Zuo Yuezi ("Sitting the Month") to the importance of taking time to REALLY recover postpartum.
Brehan explains what the impact of not being able to fully recover postpartum can look like. Issues like Fibromyalgia, chronic pelvic pain and IBS are not at all uncommon. We talk about the causes of these and how to resolve them.
I had a blast interviewing Brehan and, as I said in the podcast, I'm a big fan of the content he puts out.
You can find Brehan in all the usual places of the internet

This week I am waffling through another episode all by myself as I try to get the point across that a very narrow approach to postpartum recovery training will actually hurt you more than it will help.
Basically I am saying that, by only focussing on things like diastasis recti, pelvic floor issues etc and ignoring "normal" upperbody training and movements, you're going to run into problems later on and you really don't need to.
As I explain, unlike some other programs, in the HPNB program we start incorporating upperbody strength training from week 4 onwards as it's a vital part of getting you fit as a fiddle and ready to deal with whatever life throws at you.
Anyways, if you don't mind me taking ages to get to the point, this is a valuable episode for anyone to listen to..I promise :)

This week I have the absolute pleasure of being joined by pediatric eating expert Jessica Setnick ( MS,RD, CEDRD-S).
Jessica is one of my favourite guests to have had on the show.
We are talking everything to do with eating disorders in children;
How it can start, how you can tell there are issues and how to start resolving it.
Basically this is all about how you can help your child have a healthy relationship with food, regardless of whether they currently have one or not.
This is an absolutely essential conversation for every parent to be aware of as pediatric eating disorders are extremely common and, quite often, preventable/fixable with a bit of work (to be fair, sometimes a lot of work).

This week I have the pleasure of talking to Dr Nigel Brayer DC, Ph.C., FIAMA about urinary health.
Very often we hear stories from women, either postpartum or not, who complain about bladder weakness and leakage.
There are a lot of supplements on the market that promise the world but always seem to under deliver and quite often "just doing your kegel exercises" isn't enough.
So I'm delighted that Nigel came onto the podcast to talk about urinary health, how common it is and to explain that a solution is usually actually available without surgery or drugs.
We cover a tremendous amount of ground in this episode and you definitely don't want to miss it!

One of the ongoing discussions people in the health space (I'll include everyone in that; Doctors, Physios, Dieticians, Nutritionists, Personal trainers etc) keep having is about "scope of practice".
For instance; Someone who is not a registered dietician can not give out personalised meal plans, telling you exactly what to eat. It doesn't matter whether they're a personal trainer or a GP, they don't have the qualifications to do so.
You will often hear physio therapists say the same thing; "If your client has an injury then you should refer out to a physio" and technically they are correct.
However, there are some grey areas in this. What about a minor niggle? Can/should a personal trainer refer out? I mean, you don't go to A&E with a small cut on your finger, do you?
And what happens when a qualified professional is seemingly incapable of helping you but someone in an adjacent profession does have the solution?
I give the example of my knee pain which physiotherapists kept messing around with and nothing was resolved, then I saw my sports massage therapist and he diagnosed the cause in 2 minutes and fixed it within 3 sessions. Should I not have listened? Should he have sent me away, back to the physios that didn't have the solution the first time?
All that, and more, in today's episode;

This week we're going back a few years when I talked about one of the questions that comes up regularly in the day-to-day life of any personal trainer and dietitian.
"I am doing everything right, why am I not losing weight?".
Fundamentally the answer is always "It's because you're not doing everything right", and this is what most personal trainers and dietitians will tell you, but that answer isn't enough.
The following question should always be "Let's try to find out what the missing link is to your success"
I go over the many reasons, and there can be many, you're just not getting the results you're looking for.
I talk about;
The importance of BMR and calculating that correctly.
The problem with overreliance on exercise/training for weightloss.
The problem with "calorie in and calorie out, it's that simple".
"The time of the month" and the effects of menstruation on weight fluctuations.
How sleep, stress, anxiety and depression all impact your weight.
That breastfeeding does not equal weightloss.
The overall effects of hormones, including post-pregnancy hormones, on weightloss.
How "going out for a meal" can be a real bugger when you're trying to lose weight, and what the solution is...don't worry, it's not "just stay in".
Why I recommend going to "fancy restaurants" to almost all my weightloss clients.
And a bit more.

One of the most heard statements people post online, and that I get asked about a lot, is; Diastasis Recti is a lifelong condition that you will always need to manage.
So in this episode I talk about why this is clearly ridiculous.
Also; Postpartum backpain is very common but that doesn't mean it's inevitable or can't be resolved. So that's what we're talking about for the other half of the podcast.
and, very briefly, why I don't think the type of diet you choose for weightloss matters that much and why I don't find it interesting. What works for you works for you.

This week I talk about "setting goals" and why I don't particularly care for the "SMART goal" thing.
I would argue that most people really don't need to set specific goals and that the specificity of the goal is actually one of the reasons they end up not achieving anything every year.
I also touch, once again, on "High Protein" snacks...you don't need them...honest.

You know the kinds of things you hear "When squatting your knees shouldn't go past your toes", "When doing a deadlift your back should never be rounding", "When doing a core exercise push your lower back into the floor" etc. etc.
Does it really matter that much? I argue that it's nowhere near as important as people make it out to be.

After last week's part 1 where I covered Protein, creatine etc. This week I'm tackling some of today's talked-about/hyped supplements and explain why it's crucial to approach them with a healthy dose of skepticism. Promising to clarify the role of trendy options like NAD, NAD+, and NMN,
Can boosting naturally declining NAD levels truly reverse aging? And should you trust wellness gurus who pivot from publishing to selling supplements with scant evidence?
With non-human studies forming the backbone of much of the current research, you'll hear why investing in healthy lifestyle habits like exercise and diet might be your best bet. I also call out the pattern of wellness figures capitalizing on fleeting trends, urging you to stay informed and cautious about what's genuinely effective for your health.

Next week I'll cover NMN, NAD, CBD etc but this week I'm focusing on supplements much more common in the health and fitness world;Protein, Creatine, Vitamins and some bladder supplements (like Jude).
Are they safe, even pre and postpartum?Are they useful?
Are the more expensive ones really better than cheaper version?
Are there alternatives?

I had a wonderful email from someone in Mexico asking me the, seemingly straightforward, "When will I know my diastasis is healed?" so in this episode I spend 30 minutes answering that very question.
The issue with this question is that diastasis recti has a specific definition (one that isn't wide enough, in my opinion) and therefore quite often women get told that their diastasis is "healed" when it actually really isn't.
And you can also have the situation where the diastasis (the gap) isn't actually much of an issue anymore but, technically, you still have it.
So today I'm clearing it all up, whether you're an athlete or not. Whether you're into hill walking or a pro-tennis player..all will be clear :)

This week I am joined by Dr Jessie Hehmeyer.
She is a functional medicine practitioner and the founder of Well Empowered.
We are talking everything Functional Medicine;
Why functional medicine gets a bad rep, how it works and how it should work.
Why a good practitioner does more than just order a barrage of tests and sell supplements.
The problem with the "quick fix" approach and why real improvement in your health often takes time.
How there is no miracle cure, and much, much more.
It's a great conversation and one that will no doubt leave you much better informed and, hopefully, inspired to take positive steps to improve your health.

In this week's episode I have the pleasure of being joined by Dr Emilie Wilson.
Emilie is a Naturopathic doctor and, more importantly, she's also the author of "POST: The Essential Guide to Creating Your Postpartum Self-Care Plan in Pregnancy" .
We are talking about the importance of planning for your postpartum life during your pregnancy.
As I've mentioned before; the more you plan for things going well, and things potentially not going great, the easier your postpartum life (and mental health) will be.
Emilie talks us through the things to focus on and one or two things that very often get overlooked.
We speak about Postpartum Depression and Anxiety and how preparing for everything early on can really help if you are unfortunate enough to be one of the many women who suffer from this.
Emilie also explains how to set up a good support network and how to bring the family in successfully.
As always when discussing these things we also talk about the gaps there are in the healthcare system, how it could be improved, and how to navigate your way through that yourself.
Her book is a tremendous reference work and you can download a FREE guide that actually helps you out a lot already here
You can find her in all the right places;
