| 03 Jul 2023 | Welcome to the Wild + Well Podcast | 00:12:33 | |
Welcome to the Wild + Well Podcast! Welcome to the Wild and Well Podcast! I’m your host, Dr. Hilary Claire, a clinical psychologist, holistic parenting mentor with a focus on nutrition and environmental medicine, yoga teacher, author, and mom of two wild boys. In this episode, I will give you a little peak into what the podcast is all about. Let’s get into it. Here we delve into the big and little things that move the needle for children’s health and mental wellness in a modern world that doesn’t make it easy to do so. Since our modern day lifestyles are drastically misaligned with our DNA and how we as humans are intended to live, we have to be intentional about creating a new way of living that supports our families to thrive, our little ones to stay a bit wild and us mamas to live our best lives. Together we can nurture resilient kids, vibrant mothers, and a brighter future for the planet and the next generation. With knowledge, we can be empowered to take responsibility and action to do the best for our little ones and ourselves. In this podcast, we will have conversations with incredible thought leaders and health and wellness experts to address many of the ways we can help our kids be healthy, resilient and stay a little wild in a world that makes it easy to do just the opposite. Throughout the podcast, we will cover topics including:
A little bit about me, your host. I have always been very interested and involved in holistic health, low tox living and optimal wellness and caring for the planet. I study nutrition whenever I can, including at university and through a postgraduate fellowship in Nutritional and Environmental Medicine with the Australasian College of Nutritional and Environmental Medicine. I have worked as a yoga teacher, personal fitness trainer and group exercise class instructor. And as I mentioned at the beginning of the episode, I am a clinical psychologist and holistic parenting mentor. But my biggest job of all is being a mother to my beautiful little boys. Some of my favourite things outside of my work are writing, reading, doing yoga, going for walks in nature, cooking and baking healthy goodies, gardening and spending time with family and friends. My husband, kids and I live a somewhat alternative lifestyle in which we live between Canada (my husband and my birth country) and our adopted second country of Australia. Why I started this podcast With the birth of my first son, my interest in health and wellness amplified. My desire to give him the best start to life and to create a happier planet for him to inherit became a top priority. I became completely engrossed in the research surrounding the impact that our food, lifestyle, environment and how we live day-to-day has on our health, mental wellbeing and children. I began up-leveling my education in these areas of health. And from this, my career changed direction. My work expanded to be much more holistic. I integrate lifestyle, nutrition, and environmental approaches along with the more traditional psychological therapies in my work. I now work solely with mothers and their children. I also write books and create programs to reach more mothers and families outside of my 1:1 work. In my work, I am particularly passionate about preventing mental health disorders, brain dysfunction and behavioural issues by addressing the underlying causes in a holistic way. I am also on a mission to help moms to thrive and prioritize themselves along their journey of creating optimal health for their kids. And all of this led to this podcast now being born. I started this podcast because I know the stats on neurological, mental health and chronic health issues for our kids and us. Sorry to say, that it isn’t pretty. But I want to be a voice of hope because there really is so much we can each do to give ourselves and our families the best chance to thrive. I refuse to stand back and see my kids or myself become another statistic suffering from the neurological disorders, mental health problems or chronic diseases that currently affect so many. I don’t want that for you either! Together we can make thriving kids and vibrant moms the new norm! So much is possible for our wellness, our children’s wellness and the wellness of the world when you’re equipped with knowledge and community. That’s it from me now. See you in the next episode.

| 24 Aug 2023 | Dividing the invisible load of motherhood | 00:25:35 | |
In this episode, we talk about a transformative way of reducing the ever-growing invisible load of mothers. The invisible load is also often referred to as the mental load. It is the burden that mothers tend to carry most of. It includes everything from scheduling doctor’s appointments to meal planning to cleaning up the house to considering what school to send the kids to all the admin tasks…pretty much everything, including the kitchen sink. Here are a few questions to consider while listening to this episode:

| 24 Sep 2023 | Make better decisions for a more fulfilling life | 00:18:40 | |
We make so many choices in our days. Sometimes this can leave us exhausted and overwhelmed and with serious decision fatigue. And often, we make decisions that don’t support us in the long term or move us toward the life we want for ourselves and our families. Our decisions create our habits and our habits create our lives. They also shape our kids’ lives and how we show up for them. This is why making better decisions are so important. You can start making better decisions by asking yourself one or two questions. This is what I talk about in this episode. In this episode, I cover:

| 08 Oct 2023 | Calming your kid’s nervous system with chiropractor, Dr Carrie Rigoni | 00:51:32 | |
In today’s podcast, I had the honour of talking with the incredible Dr Carrie Rigoni. We chatted about how we can support our nervous system and our children’s to be healthy and regulated. Dr Carrie Rigoni is a chiropractor who works with mums and babies, to optimise their baby’s brain development, and set them up for lifelong health. She loves talking about all things vagus nerve, and all the factors that can influence brain development. She has a busy practice in Perth WA and is passionate about optimising the vagus nerve and setting our next generation up not only for healthy thriving bodies, but brains, immune systems, and stress resilience too. Dr. Carrie offers a group coaching program for mothers and their babies. Dr. Carrie and I chat about:
Dr Carrie’s work is so important for mothers and children, that I have referenced her several times in my soon-to-be released book, Nourished Mama: A Clinical Psychologist’s Guide to Finding Abundant Energy in Motherhood. Nervous system regulation is a much needed, yet often forgotten aspect of our overall health and wellbeing. Mothers especially need to look more closely at their nervous systems for their own vitality since motherhood is a time that can easily tip us into dysregulation. But also, mothers have the opportunity to help set up their little ones to have healthy, flexible nervous systems. Not only does that mean a healthier little body, but also a few less meltdowns.

| 22 Oct 2023 | Why you must prioritize yourself, mama | 00:17:44 | |
Mama, are you last on your priority list? Do you make sure everyone and everything else is taken care of before you are? If you are nodding your head, you are not alone. Prioritizing ourselves as mothers is challenging! Modern motherhood is not easy and there are so many expectations, pressures, societal norms and practical barriers that get in the way. However, prioritizing yourself is essential. It allows you to show up in your life as the best version of yourself, be there for others, and do great, meaningful work. It is also imperative to your health and well-being. If this topic is especially relevant to you, you may want to check out my book, The Motherhood Reset, as this is a topic we delve into deeply there. In this episode, I cover:

“To treat the child, you must treat the parent.” Today, I am chatting with naturopath Emma Caller about how we, as mothers, can take true care of ourselves while we provide the best care we can for our little ones. Emma, better known as Emma the Naturopath, is living out her childhood dream of being a naturopath and nutritionist. Emma predominantly works with “hot mess mamas and their kids and bubs.” Her practice is based on the Coffs Coast in New South Wales, but she also sees clients online. Emma was the naturopath that I worked with during my early postpartum years. She was an incredible support in my wellness journey as I struggled with postnatal depletion and postpartum thyroiditis. I was definitely one hot mess mama! This is something that I write about in depth in my book, Nourished Mama. I am beyond grateful for Emma’s warmth, knowledge and nurturing herbal tonics and am so excited to have her here on today’s podcast. “That inner child joy where you just lose track of time and inhibitions. It just fills you up with life and there is no supplement that will do that.” Emma and I chat about:
“If you want your children to have great lifestyle habits and eating habits, it’s important to do the work for yourself as well.” Episode Links:

| 26 Nov 2023 | Easy Ways to Get Your Kids Enjoying Vegetables | 00:27:44 | |
While there are endless fancy and expensive things we can do to support our children’s immune systems, health and behaviour, it is often the simple, daily things that matter most. Like good sleep, plenty of exercise, time outside. And yes, eating lots of veggies. Many kids nowadays don’t eat anywhere near enough vegetables. Many don’t even eat any at all. Kids tend to eat plenty of fruit, but veggies are sometimes a challenge. But the great news is that this doesn’t have to be forever. With consistency and a few shifts in our habits, we can help support our kids to enjoy their veggies and eat plenty of them every day. In this episode, I am covering over a dozen ways to support our kids to eat and genuinely enjoy vegetables. I am currently writing a book on this exact topic.

| 17 Dec 2023 | Change the way you see yourself through photography with Laura Benn of Gooseberry Studios | 01:02:12 | |
How often are you in the photos with your kids? How do you feel about having your photo taken? Are there moments from the past that you wish you had captured but didn’t? In this episode of the Wild + Well podcast, I am talking to photographer Laura Benn about how we can use photography to change our perspective, appreciate the messy moments of motherhood, and have more fun with our kids. After this chat, I booked a family photography session with Laura. I wanted to capture more of their childhood and be in the photos with my kids too. I have a sneaking suspicion that you will also be booking some family photos or asking your partner to take more pictures of you playing with your kids after listening to this episode. Laura is a full-time commercial photographer, brand strategist and writer who founded Gooseberry Studios in 2013 to help entrepreneurs find their confidence on camera, build beloved brands and establish their own creative everyday way of work and life. Gooseberry's photoshoots and brand strategies have supported clients in landing features in international press, producing books, gracing the TEDx stage, launching retail and digital products and winning awards. When Laura's not busy with her clients, she's focused on her art career — producing limited-edition fine art prints, inspired goods and writing about creativity, entrepreneurship and living imaginatively. “Don’t take the photos because you are afraid of forgetting. Take the photos because you want to remember.” Laura and I chat about:

| 01 Jan 2024 | How to diffuse a power struggle with your child | 00:25:53 | |
Do you find yourself in power struggles with your child? Do you feel stuck and not know how to help your child with the challenges they are currently facing? Would you like to work on procrastination, anxiety or anger within yourself? In this episode, I go in-depth into a very useful therapeutic tool that parents can use when they are having a power struggle or when their kids are having a hard time. Externalizing. Externalizing is something that we can apply to ourselves to reduce shame around not feeling good enough. We can also access it to help our kids when they are feeling anxious or angry or when they are being picky with their eating or refusing to go to school. A mantra to remember here is this: Your child is not the problem. The problem is the problem. You are not the problem. The problem is the problem. In this episode, I cover:

| 14 Jan 2024 | Little shifts for big health improvements for our children with Naturopath & Nutritionist Belinda Byrnes | 01:05:00 | |
In this episode, I chat with Naturopath Belinda Byrnes. We talk about how we can support our kids to have optimal health and overcome health challenges, including eczema and ADHD, through lifestyle and dietary changes. “The diagnosis is saying ‘yes, you have something,’ but it doesn't give you any information about why you have it. There is always a reason.” Belinda is a Naturopath and Nutritionist. She is the owner of Ritual Herb Bar and Naturopathic Clinic. She sees a wide range of conditions in her clinic but has a special interest in skin conditions such as eczema and dermatitis. She believes that by addressing the underlying causes of inflammatory skin conditions, it allows the body to innate ability to heal. Belinda has been working in private practice as a qualified Naturopath and Nutritionist since 2014 and in the health industry for almost 20 years. Having experienced her own issues with digestive and skin health in the past, finally getting relief after seeing a naturopath herself inspired her to study Naturopathy and Nutritional Medicine in 2009. She is passionate about empowering families to have more control over their own health journey and implementing positive changes in a balanced and manageable way. Having two young boys herself, she knows how challenging that can be and that everyone is on their own path, so treatment needs to reflect that individuality. Belinda also developed her award-winning Ritual Herb Bar herbal product range in 2020. She uses only the highest quality organic herbs to produce a range of naturopathic blended herbal teas and tonics. I personally absolutely love her elderberry syrup blend and many of her teas. “For anyone that does have a younger baby, prevention or early treatment is always easier and quicker than if you get further down the track.” Belinda and I chat about:
“If you can’t afford to go and see someone or can’t afford to buy supplements, just make sure that underlying stuff is addressed.” Episode Links:

| 28 Jan 2024 | One and Done with The Only Hearts Club founder Jacqueline Stein | 00:44:54 | |
More and more parents are choosing to have one child. Is this you? If it is, you will love the chat I have with Jacqueline Stein on this episode of the Wild + Well podcast. But it is a chat worth listening to, even if you have more than one child. Jacqueline and I talk about the struggles of modern day motherhood and how we can support our mental health as mothers just as much as we chat about the reality and misunderstanding of mothers who choose to have ‘only’ one child. Jacqueline is a communications enthusiast based in Toronto, Canada. She currently leads communications for an international NGO working with farmers, seeds, and food security. Her career in global development has taken her throughout Canada and around the world. Outside of her professional life, Jacqueline is a proud mother to an active toddler, an avid runner, a community volunteer, and a lover of road trips near and far. As a mom to an only child (by choice), Jacqueline set out to connect with other mothers of one when she founded The Only Hearts Club. What started as a local Facebook group eventually evolved into an Instagram page and a website spotlighting – and connecting – mothers worldwide who are one-and-done. “You need to stop apologizing for taking care of yourself, for wanting to do the things that you want to do. You’re not selfish.” Jacqueline and I chat about:
“Take care of your needs first. Put yourself first so that you can take care of others and do it to the best of your abilities.” Episode Links:

| 11 Feb 2024 | 5 Parent-Focused Strategies to Ease Our Child's Challenging Behaviour | 00:27:07 | |
In this episode, I go over five helpful strategies parents can implement when their kids are having a hard time or “challenging” behaviour. When your child regularly throws tantrums, it may seem counterintuitive for you, as the parent, to review your own behaviour. After all, you're not the one screaming in the grocery store. However, if we as parents first focus on how we act and shape our interactions with our kids, we can then learn how to shift the focus away from the challenging behaviour the child is engaging in. The result? We suddenly have a lot more control and the ability to make changes for the better. When we change our focus and actions as parents to support our children with the behavioural issues they are dealing with, we can help improve the overall well-being of your family dynamic. In this episode, I cover:

| 25 Feb 2024 | Slow living for modern day mothers with life coach Rachelle Glendon | 00:51:16 | |
The slow movement is very much here. Slow parenting, slow food, slow everything. And for good reason. As a collective, we are living busier and busier lives. I talk to so many mothers about the desire to slow down and live a simpler life. Yet, it is tricky to do so. But what exactly is it and how can we slow down? I sat down with slow living coach, Rachelle Glendon to learn more about slow living in motherhood. We talk about how we can incorporate more simplicity and intentionality into our already full lives. Have a listen. “Slow living is all about knowing what your values are and what is your priority in this season of your life based on your values.” Rachelle Glendon is a wife, mother and certified life coach as well as host of How To Live Slow, a podcast for modern women who wish to ditch hustle culture, slow down and reconnect to their natural rhythms. Her focus is on matrescence (the transformation of motherhood), slow and seasonal living and self leadership, the overarching theme of which is change and transitions. She believes that when we slow down, rest and take care, we will see that it's been the answer to many of our world’s problems all along. “When we know we are valuable regardless of what we get done in a day, that can really change things.” Rachelle and I chat about:
“When you’re saying yes to something that is not an important thing, you're saying no to things that are.” Episode Links:

| 10 Mar 2024 | Supporting our kids with hyperactivity & inattention with Naturopath Jessica Donovan | 00:40:54 | |
It is so common nowadays for our kids to struggle with inattention, learning difficulties, impulsivity, low mood, hyperactivity and sensory issues. There is no doubt that genetics plays a role in how our brains work and neurodiversity can be an incredible thing. But when our kids are struggling with their mental health or exhibiting really challenging behaviour, it is natural for us as parents to want to help them. The great news is that we can! We can do so much to support our kids’ brains to work optimally. A fabulous by-product of this is that as their brains get healthier, so do their bodies. When our kids’ brains are supported with critical nutrients, a great wholefoods diet, plenty of time outdoors and great sleep, their behaviour improves too. This makes parenting a little easier and their day-to-day lives a little easier. In this podcast episode, I am joined by Naturopath Jessica Donovan. She gives us doable strategies to help support our kids brain health and lessen their struggle with inattention, hyperactivity, mood and impulsivity. Jessica Donovan is a Naturopath and founder of Natural Super Kids. Through her Natural Super Kids Klub membership, Jessica helps busy moms raise healthy and resilient kids. She does this by assisting them focus on one healthy change at a time. Jessica has helped hundreds of parents transform the health of their kids. Jessica and I chat about:

| 24 Mar 2024 | The book writing process | 00:53:40 | |
Have you ever thought about writing a book? So many people have told me that they want to write a book. But it seems overwhelming, too big a project or they just don’t know where to start. In this episode, my book editor, Laura Benn from Gooseberry Studios and I go in depth on the book writing process including all the insecurities that will inevitably come up. Even if book writing isn’t on your agenda, mamas, you’ll get a lot out of this raw conversation. “The mother is the centre of a family and if she is in a good space, everything is easier. Everything is better is the family because she is in a better space.” Laura and I chat about:
“It feels good to not let fear or self-doubt paralyze you or stop you from doing meaningful work or doing whatever it is that you want to do.” Episode Links:

I know firsthand the power of food for health, mood and behaviour. When I feed my family real wholefoods, we are all calmer and healthier. Parenting is easier.

| 21 Apr 2024 | Why we need to care about our children’s airway health with dentist Dr Shereen Lim | 00:41:00 | |
Does your child snore or grind their teeth? Do they wake up grumpy or struggle with inattention, hyperactivity or meltdown at the drop of a hat? If so, airway health is something worth looking at. In this episode, I chat with airway-focused dentist Dr Shereen Lim all about airway health and why it is so important for our kids’ sleep, development, health and behaviour. Dr Shereen Lim is a Perth-based dentist with a postgraduate diploma in dental sleep medicine from the University of Western Australia. She has been involved in the team management of snoring and obstructive sleep apnoea since 2011.

| 05 May 2024 | Ayurveda for increased fertility, smoother pregnancies & a better postpartum | 00:58:47 | |
Have you heard of Ayurveda? Ayurveda is an ancient traditional medicine. But it is so much more than that. It is a way of life, as Kate O’Donnell puts it. I have been fascinated with Ayurveda since I first learned about it during my yoga teacher training in 2010 in Byron Bay. So naturally, I was thrilled to talk to Kate about Ayurveda – what it is, how we can access it for improved health, fertility, pregnancy and a better postpartum – on this episode of the podcast. Kate and I chat about:
Kate O’Donnell has spent more than twenty-five years traveling through India in search of ancient, time-tested, healing practices to bring back to the United States. Through her own healing journey, Kate experienced firsthand how a holistic system creates lasting health. She has since emerged as a preeminent expert in Ayurveda and has built her own curriculum customized for modern Americans. Her individualized approach, “guiding from disease to ease,” has transformed the lives of thousands of people and made her a respected thought-leader in holistic medicine. Kate’s best-selling books, published in seven languages, continue to be the top resources in the field of Ayurveda. As a highly sought-after speaker and the founder of the Ayurvedic Living Institute, she has educated a generation of practitioners. Episode Links:

| 19 May 2024 | Getting kids moving to enhance their development with Exercise Physiologist Lec Bruggisser | 00:59:19 | |
We all want our kids to develop well and hit their milestones. There are endless items marketed to us as parents to buy to ‘help’ our kids start sitting, walking, and doing all the things. But what if these weren’t necessary? And perhaps even a hinderance to their development? What is there for us to help our kids then? Good old physical activity – no fancy equipment required. In this episode, I am talking to Lec Bruggisser about the importance of physical activity in the early years and how we can support our kids’ optimal development through movement. Lec and I chat about:
Lec is an Exercise Physiologist with an interest in paediatrics. She is passionate about empowering kids and families to be healthy and active. She is also a Pilates instructor. Lec believes exercise is medicine and is working to get the research out to all of us about how impactful exercise is for our health, mood, mental health and everything really. Lec loves to share ways we can easily incorporate more movement into children and our own lives and how we can be more active with our kids. One way she does so is with what she calls exercise snacks. These are quick little ways we can get exercise in our days. I highly recommend you take up the habit of exercise snacking throughout your day too. Episode Links:

| 02 Jun 2024 | Why visualization and knowing yourself better is critical in motherhood | 00:22:20 | |
Exhaustion, overwhelm and depletion are all too common in motherhood. If this is how you are feeling at the moment, please know that this doesn’t have to be your future too. There are many very real obstacles outside of our control that make motherhood nowadays even harder (think: unhelpful societal beliefs, increased financial strains, lack of a village, and workplaces not being child friendly). Yet, there is much that is still within our control and that is exciting. That means that despite the barriers, we can create a better way forward for ourselves and our families. This is what this episode is all about. In this episode, I cover:

| 16 Jun 2024 | A root cause approach to cavities and dental health with Biological Dental Hygienist and Myofunctional Therapist Alex Clinton | 01:17:12 | |
Does your child have cavities? Do you notice they often breathe through their mouth or snoring at night? Dental issues like cavities, crowded teeth and breathing issues seem all too common nowadays. Yet, trying to get to the core of what is causing these issues can be overwhelming. Lucky for us, I am diving into all of this with Alex Clinton in this episode. She is a biological dental hygienist, myofunctional therapist and holistic dental coach based in Ontario, Canada. She supports parents in preventing oral health issues including cavities, crowded teeth, mouth breathing and poor sleep. Alex and I chat about:
After practicing in British Columbia for 10 years, Alex returned to Ontario to continue studying and building her practice Functional Oral Health. She created this to provide individuals and professionals with the resources and tools all under one roof. Alexandra realized early on in her career that many patients were feeling discouraged by standard recommendations and wanted to know how their oral health might be impacting their overall health. She then proceeded to train with some of the best airway and myofunctional therapists on the planet and was able to bring these perspectives to the practice. This allowed her to help many patients of all ages understand how these factors impact the growth and development of the oral complex, including their impact on airway, breathing, chewing, speech, orthodontic development, and sleep issues. Alexandra enjoys teaching healthcare professionals how to integrate breathing and myofunctional therapy programs, including biological dentistry techniques, into their current dental or health care practices.

| 14 Jul 2024 | Pelvic health is so much more than just Kegels with Doctor of Orthopedic & Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy Dr Angela Turnow | 00:57:54 | |
Peeing when jumping on a trampoline. Fear of running. Prolapse. Back pain. Separated abdominals. Pelvic floor pain. While these are common for mothers after having babies, they don’t need to be the reality. Giving birth doesn’t mean we must experience these things. And for those of us who already experience these, they aren’t a life sentence. In this chat with Doctor of Orthopedic & Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy, Dr Angela Turnow, we uncover what we can do to prevent and remediate any challenges. Dr Angela and I chat about:
Dr Angela is a doctor of orthopedic and pelvic floor physical therapy. As a mom of three, she has firsthand experience with fixing her own prolapse, bladder leaks, back pain and pelvic floor problems. She helps active moms fix pelvic floor problems with movement and drills. She believes the body needs to support the pelvic floor versus blame it. She loves running, competing in triathlons, hiking, and being at their lake with her family. Episode Links:

Do you struggle with low energy? Do you want more sleep but feel it is impossible at this point in your motherhood journey? If we want to feel vital and have more energy, we must get the foundations in place. Sleep. Food. Movement. Without these, the rest is helpful but will never be enough to allow you to truly thrive. In this episode of Wild + Well, I go over these three nourishing foundations. These are the first three of the 10 Nourishing Non-Negotiables I discuss in my book, Nourished Mama.

Are you worried that you will never sleep well again once you have a baby? Do you struggle to get to sleep or find yourself waking in the middle of the night and unable to get back to sleep? Sleep can seem evasive once we become mothers. But it doesn’t have to be that way. It is possible to get great sleep even with little kids or a baby. This doesn’t always happen automatically. Yet, with a few shifts in your mindset, environment and daily habits, it can be your normal. In this episode of the Wild & Well podcast, I talk with sleep expert and clinical psychologist Dr Daniella Marchetti about sleep in motherhood. Even if you are already getting decent sleep, Dr Daniella is a wealth of knowledge on all things sleep.

| 11 Aug 2024 | Create a smooth recovery from birth and pregnancy with Dr Andrea Loving | 00:52:42 | |
When pregnant, we learn about and plan for birth. After birth, we recognize that recovery is needed. But recovery from pregnancy is not often talked about. Recovery from birth AND recovery from pregnancy are essential if we want to be healthy, strong and the best moms we can be. Preparation during pregnancy can make recovery from pregnancy and birth a little smoother. And it isn’t too late for the rest of us who didn’t set ourselves up optimally for a speedy recovery. We can start now. On the latest episode of the Wild & Well podcast, this is precisely what we are diving into: recovery from pregnancy and birth. I am joined by Dr Andrea Loving, who supports new mothers in having the best recovery possible postpartum and enjoyable entry into motherhood. Dr Andrea and I chat about:
Dr. Andrea Loving D.O. is a physician, mom of two (soon to be three!) girls, and the creative force behind Sage Mother Co.- a company all about giving women the support, resources, and expert advice they need during the wild early years of motherhood.

| 18 Aug 2024 | Get clear on your priorities, values and needs for a calmer motherhood with Rachelle Glendon | 00:40:43 | |
Does your schedule reflect your priorities? Do you know your values? Are you clear on your emotions? What about your needs? Life can get busy as a mom. Our time can easily get eaten up. We can get disconnected from our own feelings. We can forget about our own needs as we tend to our children’s. But reconnecting with these are foundational to creating and sustaining a motherhood in which you thrive. In this episode, the microphone has been turned around today and I am interviewed by slow living coach Rachella Glendon. We chat about how critical it is for moms to identify our priorities, values and needs for a more enjoyable motherhood. “Values are not goals. You can live a fulfilling life by living your values and not just ticking off to-do’s” Rachelle and I chat about:
Rachelle Glendon is a wife, mother and certified life coach as well as host of How To Live Slow, a podcast for modern women who wish to ditch hustle culture, slow down and reconnect to their natural rhythms. Her focus is on matrescence (the transformation of motherhood), midlife transitions, slow and seasonal living and self-leadership, the overarching theme of which is change and transitions. She believes that when we slow down, rest and take care of ourselves, we will see that it's been the answer to many of our world’s problems all along. Listen in as we gently guide you to reconnect with what will support you through your motherhood journey.

We change so much when we become mothers. Our bodies change. Our brains change. Our day-to-day changes. It is no wonder that our identities and beliefs change too. It is liberating to let go of unhelpful beliefs that keep us small in motherhood and old, outdated identities that no longer serve us in our current moment.

Many of us feel isolated and lonely even though we constantly connect through social media and our devices. We are busy in our lives yet not connected to the people we love. We don’t see our friends as often as we would like or don’t have friends living close by. We are living in a loneliness epidemic – and mothers are often feeling this more so than anyone else. This is why I asked Palak Dave to join me on this episode to discuss fostering adult friendship, building community and spending more time in real life instead of on our devices.

| 01 Dec 2024 | Curbing morning sickness without pharmaceuticals | 00:57:56 | |
Morning sickness seems like something that we have to struggle through. The only options typically given are medicine, ginger tea or plain crackers. Morning sickness can be so severe for many pregnant women that they are hesitant or even downright fearful to go through another pregnancy. But there really is so much we can do to prevent morning sickness or reverse the symptoms if we are currently experiencing it! In this episode, I am joined by Jes Reynolds to discuss morning sickness and what we can do to prevent and stop it in its tracks. She works with pregnant and soon-to-be pregnant mamas to set them up to have great pregnancies without the debilitating nausea.

| 15 Dec 2024 | Healing foods to eat postpartum | 01:03:54 | |
We prepare and think about birth a lot. Or at least I did. But postpartum? Not so much. It wasn’t until after I had both my children that I even heard of a postpartum doula. A birth doula sure, but postpartum – no. Postpartum was a shocking reality slap. It was beautiful. It was messy. And it was the first time in my life that I craved more support on such a deep level. Imagine how different our world would be if new mothers had extra support and delicious nourishing meals during those first few days, weeks and months after birth? I know that my own matrescence journey would have been a little gentler with a little less nutrient depletion. How about yours? Postpartum care and nourishment are so important. So, I asked Alicia Allison, a postpartum chef, postpartum doula and herbalist, to join me on the podcast to talk about how mothers can get more nourishment postpartum. Alicia and I chat about:
Not only is Alicia a postpartum chef, postpartum doula, and herbalist, but she is also a yoga teacher, lactation counsellor, somatic wellness practitioner. She is a pioneer and leader in postpartum nutrition. Over more than a decade of working as a postpartum chef and doula, Alicia has supported over 80 families during the fourth trimester. She created NOURISH, a program that educates and mentors home chefs and postpartum doulas to provide care to more families during those postpartum weeks and months. Alicia is dedicated to helping others heal, nurture their bodies and bring life into this world in a way that elevates our collective consciousness. Episode Links: Say hi to Alicia on Instagram

| 16 Feb 2025 | Have an optimal pregnancy and easeful birth with Osteopath Tessa Lang-Larson | 00:51:18 | |
I started getting osteopathy treatments in the early years of motherhood and it helped me so much. My body was rather misaligned and in pain after two pregnancies, carrying babies for hours every day and not taking proper care of myself. Osteopathy was one of the modalities that helped me so much on my journey back to prioritizing myself and having my health and energy back. I only wish I had known of osteopathy and its benefits before I had my children. I had no idea that it could have helped with having a more easeful birth and supported my baby and myself with the many common newborn challenges. How good is that? In the most recent episode of The Wild and Well Podcast, I chat with Osteopath Tessa Lang-Larson about how we can use osteopathy to our benefit during pregnancy, postpartum and beyond.
Tessa is a Manual Osteopathic Practitioner. She is a member of the Ontario Osteopathic Association. She graduated from the Canadian Academy of Osteopathy in 2021 and obtained her specialization in Infant Osteopathy in 2023. Tessa is a mom of three. She is also one of the founders of The Well Body Group in the Kawartha Lakes, Ontario. This centre offers a holistic approach to health and offers osteopathy, massage, pediatric physiotherapy, counselling and several other health modalities. Tessa’s interest in supporting women and their babies to have optimal health during pregnancy and postpartum began after birthing her first two children. Using osteopathy, Tessa helps moms with pregnancy-related issues such as aches and pains and proper pelvic alignment for an optimal birth. She also helps with many common issues for infants, including lactation and latching, tongue ties, colic and other digestive concerns, and sleep challenges. Episode Links:
