1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:04,000
Speaker 1: I am someone who doesn't do balance well. I'm either

2
00:00:04,240 --> 00:00:08,280
Speaker 1: like full steam ahead, going a bit crazy forgetting about

3
00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:13,280
Speaker 1: basic things like vegetables, or I'm you know, full woo

4
00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:17,600
Speaker 1: woo making my meals from scratch. And I talk about

5
00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:20,520
Speaker 1: this a lot through the podcast, about you know, being

6
00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:23,759
Speaker 1: in seasons, and so if I'm in a season of hustle,

7
00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:25,920
Speaker 1: I don't tend to have a lot of balance and

8
00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:28,440
Speaker 1: a lot of my sort of health basics will go

9
00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:41,600
Speaker 1: out the window holding the phone was gone, sign of

10
00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:48,720
Speaker 1: finally make just hello guys, and welcome back to the

11
00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:53,120
Speaker 1: Rise and Conquer podcast. I'm your host Georgie Stevenson, lawyer

12
00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:58,040
Speaker 1: turned entrepreneur and self development junkie. On today's show, I

13
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:01,560
Speaker 1: have just a bit of a short solo. It's not

14
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:04,760
Speaker 1: a pep talk, it's a bit of an informational chat

15
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:09,520
Speaker 1: this Friday morning. And this has come on just because

16
00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:13,039
Speaker 1: I am dealing with some sort of health issues. I've

17
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:17,360
Speaker 1: been very open about being diagnosed with hashimotos, which is

18
00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:22,360
Speaker 1: an autoimmune condition of the thyroid, and just getting a

19
00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:25,480
Speaker 1: whole host of symptoms of just like severe fatigue and

20
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:28,760
Speaker 1: not feeling very well. And it's been a bit of

21
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 1: a wake up call because they do say that autoimmune

22
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:37,160
Speaker 1: conditions kind of just can come on and they can

23
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:42,160
Speaker 1: be you know, genetics, but also they can be from

24
00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:45,560
Speaker 1: lifestyle choices. So it's been a bit of a reality

25
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:49,600
Speaker 1: check and it's really forced me to stop and slow

26
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:53,080
Speaker 1: down and get back to the basics. I am someone

27
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:57,160
Speaker 1: who doesn't do balance well. I'm either like a full

28
00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:00,880
Speaker 1: steam ahead going a bit crazy forgetting your about basic

29
00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:05,800
Speaker 1: things like vegetables, or I'm you know, full woo woo

30
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:09,760
Speaker 1: making my meals from scratch. And I talk about this

31
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:13,320
Speaker 1: a lot through the podcast about you know, being in seasons,

32
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:16,040
Speaker 1: and so if I'm in a season of hustle, I

33
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,360
Speaker 1: don't tend to have a lot of balance and a

34
00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:20,880
Speaker 1: lot of my sort of health basics will go out

35
00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:24,120
Speaker 1: the window. I'm trying to get better at that because

36
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:26,760
Speaker 1: I'm realizing this like constant yo yo is a bit

37
00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 1: it's a bit too much, and I do want to

38
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:31,440
Speaker 1: have a bit more balance. Even though I am someone

39
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:36,720
Speaker 1: who does believe in you know, seasons, I'm prioritizing different stuff.

40
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:38,880
Speaker 1: But I thought I would do just a bit of

41
00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:45,160
Speaker 1: a show on the basics of health, so broad and

42
00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:48,720
Speaker 1: just talk about you know what I'm refocusing on and

43
00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:53,000
Speaker 1: how I'm doing it. Obviously, quick disclaimer, I am not

44
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:56,720
Speaker 1: a health professional or doctor or anything like this. This

45
00:02:56,800 --> 00:03:00,919
Speaker 1: is my personal experience or advice that I have got

46
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:05,560
Speaker 1: from my you know, doctor's specialist naturopath that I'm just

47
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:08,080
Speaker 1: folding onto you. And I think it's also it's just

48
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:10,839
Speaker 1: like almost like a bit of a refresher if you're

49
00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:14,120
Speaker 1: feeling like maybe you're getting sick of the time, or

50
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:18,000
Speaker 1: you're just not feeling your best. And I think sometimes

51
00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:23,000
Speaker 1: we just we can really over complicate health and wellbeing

52
00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:25,919
Speaker 1: and you know, we're like, what, you know, what new

53
00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:30,079
Speaker 1: diet do I have to try? What new exercise regime

54
00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 1: do I have to do? What's this new supplement? But really,

55
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:37,120
Speaker 1: when we strip it back, I find there are you know,

56
00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:40,600
Speaker 1: five health pillars that if I refocus on them and

57
00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:43,760
Speaker 1: get them good, I feel okay. And that's what I

58
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:47,040
Speaker 1: have been doing, and look, I am getting better. I

59
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:50,440
Speaker 1: think I'll have to do another podcast just on health

60
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:54,280
Speaker 1: and whatnot. I've been looking a lot into breast implant

61
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:57,240
Speaker 1: illness because I do have breast implants. I got them

62
00:03:57,240 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 1: done when I was nineteen, so I've had them in

63
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 1: for a while. And I don't know. I am quite

64
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:06,840
Speaker 1: certain that I will get my implants out. I'm just

65
00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:10,360
Speaker 1: doing a lot of research and I'm kind of to

66
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:13,520
Speaker 1: the point where I'm like, look, if something could help me,

67
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:17,240
Speaker 1: I'm willing to try it. And I like the person

68
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:20,600
Speaker 1: who Georgie, who got her boobs done when she was nineteen,

69
00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:23,560
Speaker 1: is very different to Georgie now. And I have no

70
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:27,599
Speaker 1: attachment to my boobs or having big boobs or you know,

71
00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:31,360
Speaker 1: esthetically or anything like that. I'm you know, I remember

72
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:33,320
Speaker 1: talking to mel about this and she said, you know,

73
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:35,680
Speaker 1: if we don't have our health, you know, what's the

74
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,520
Speaker 1: point what do we have? And it's just it's so true.

75
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:41,280
Speaker 1: So you guys know, I have a huge story of

76
00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:44,719
Speaker 1: being obsessed with how I was looking and dieting whatnot,

77
00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:48,359
Speaker 1: and really coming full circle to accepting how I look

78
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:51,159
Speaker 1: and the body I'm in and really just see and

79
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:54,320
Speaker 1: really just focusing on health and well being. Most of

80
00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:56,839
Speaker 1: the time. I'm not, you know, I'm not on the

81
00:04:56,880 --> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 1: spectrum of being like, you know, crazy obsessed with health.

82
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:05,360
Speaker 1: It's almost like like, oh, well, I'll explain in this podcast. Okay, guys,

83
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:09,520
Speaker 1: So enough rambling. These are kind of the five pillars

84
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:12,680
Speaker 1: that I always go back to when I am like, Okay,

85
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:15,200
Speaker 1: I need to refocus on my health and we well

86
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:19,520
Speaker 1: being the first one. And guys, this isn't anything like

87
00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:21,840
Speaker 1: You're not going to be you know, shocked or anything.

88
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:23,880
Speaker 1: But I think we just we can all have this

89
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:27,440
Speaker 1: reminder and refocus and do little things. And I think

90
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 1: it's about realizing it's like it's one foot in front

91
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:33,000
Speaker 1: of the other instead of looking up and being like,

92
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:35,520
Speaker 1: oh my god, I have so many changes to make

93
00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:39,760
Speaker 1: and so many things to uphol in my routine whatever,

94
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:42,880
Speaker 1: Like no, we're not doing that. Just think of, you know,

95
00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:45,800
Speaker 1: a couple of small changes you can make and put

96
00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:49,080
Speaker 1: one stop, one step in front of the other. Okay,

97
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:52,440
Speaker 1: So first one that I am putting first because honestly,

98
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:54,800
Speaker 1: I think it's like the most important for me personally,

99
00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:59,839
Speaker 1: and that is sleep. We all know why sleep is important.

100
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:02,320
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure I did a whole episode on my

101
00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:04,880
Speaker 1: kind of sleep routine, but I'll just breeze through it.

102
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:08,279
Speaker 1: And it's kind of like for me, if I don't

103
00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:12,920
Speaker 1: get good sleep, I am tired, I'm more fatigued. I'm

104
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:17,039
Speaker 1: someone who's currently fatigued if I get good sleep, So

105
00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:19,240
Speaker 1: I need to get you know, I need to be

106
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:23,359
Speaker 1: getting good sleep so I have a bit of energy. Also,

107
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:27,400
Speaker 1: you know, we're it completely controls our mood. If I

108
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:30,560
Speaker 1: don't have good sleep, I will find i'm you know, grumpy.

109
00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:36,159
Speaker 1: And then also when we're tired, our body tends to

110
00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:39,440
Speaker 1: lean towards, you know, wanting sugary foods for the energy,

111
00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:43,440
Speaker 1: and just a whole whole host of different things that

112
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:47,000
Speaker 1: can come from simply not getting enough sleep. So at

113
00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:49,240
Speaker 1: the moment, I don't know if you guys are gonna laugh,

114
00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:52,760
Speaker 1: but like at the moment, I'm literally aiming to get

115
00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:56,320
Speaker 1: eight to nine hours sleep. And it is just because

116
00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:58,920
Speaker 1: my body is going through a healing phase where I'm

117
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:02,760
Speaker 1: really focusing on healing my thyroid and my autoimmune condition.

118
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:05,720
Speaker 1: Well you can't really heal it, but I'm just focusing on,

119
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:09,200
Speaker 1: you know, healing my body because it obviously needs it.

120
00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:13,560
Speaker 1: And so basically for me, sleep is so important and

121
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:16,160
Speaker 1: it's not just about getting like, you know, seven to

122
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:19,080
Speaker 1: eight hours sleep, but it's also making your short you're

123
00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:22,320
Speaker 1: getting good sleep. I think we can all notice like

124
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:25,360
Speaker 1: when we have good sleep or not. And so just

125
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:30,080
Speaker 1: like very quickly, I my sort of sleep routine literally

126
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 1: starts when I shut down my laptop. So I try

127
00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:35,920
Speaker 1: and do this around five to six and I try

128
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,360
Speaker 1: and you know, shut down my laptop, shut down my work.

129
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:40,560
Speaker 1: I talk about this all the time, but I have

130
00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:43,840
Speaker 1: like a winding down activity. So this is an activity

131
00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:48,080
Speaker 1: that basically tells me and my body that okay, we're

132
00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 1: not working anymore. We're now we're winding down. And I

133
00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:54,880
Speaker 1: personally need this because I work from home and so

134
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:57,240
Speaker 1: you know, if you don't work from home, you catch

135
00:07:57,240 --> 00:07:59,200
Speaker 1: a bus home or you get in your car and

136
00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 1: it's like, you know, this activity. So for me, I

137
00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:04,560
Speaker 1: have to go do that activity, which is either going

138
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:07,840
Speaker 1: for a beach walk of Tim or you know, playing

139
00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:11,080
Speaker 1: with the puppies, having it's usually having a conversation with Tim.

140
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:14,320
Speaker 1: That's like what I really need to like really dezone

141
00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:16,840
Speaker 1: from the day. And then you know, me and Tim

142
00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:19,040
Speaker 1: cook dinner, We try to you know, not be on

143
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:21,240
Speaker 1: our phones. We put some music on, we try and

144
00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:25,960
Speaker 1: make that really interactive, and then before we go to bed,

145
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:29,800
Speaker 1: we always watch TV. I'm not gonna lie about that.

146
00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:34,400
Speaker 1: Netflix is our bestie. And I just make sure I'm

147
00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:37,679
Speaker 1: wearing my blue blocking glasses because I find they really

148
00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:41,800
Speaker 1: help before I go to sleep in regards to blocking

149
00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:44,680
Speaker 1: the blue light from the TV and my phone. And

150
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:49,960
Speaker 1: then also, as you guys know, I'm completely obsessed with

151
00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:54,800
Speaker 1: our Moonmill Hot chalk from Naked Harvest, and that is

152
00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:58,520
Speaker 1: just a drink that it's a yummy hot chocolate and

153
00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:04,280
Speaker 1: basically it has a bunch of natural ingredients like magnesium

154
00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:09,920
Speaker 1: that really helps your body shut down, relax and recover.

155
00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:13,200
Speaker 1: It has no you know, sedatives or anything like that,

156
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:15,320
Speaker 1: so you're not going to feel groggy in the morning,

157
00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:20,800
Speaker 1: but it's basically supplements that it's like, Okay, it's sleep time,

158
00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:24,120
Speaker 1: I'm going to relax. And it's really amazing for your

159
00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:27,000
Speaker 1: nervous system. So if you find that you're quite wired

160
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:30,320
Speaker 1: before you go to sleep, I have my Moonmilk and

161
00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:35,480
Speaker 1: oh it's actually insane because it's completely natural and just

162
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:39,559
Speaker 1: an FYI guys, that is getting restopped. Oh wait, oh

163
00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:43,679
Speaker 1: my god. When this episode goes live, it will completely

164
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:47,040
Speaker 1: be restocked, which is so exciting. It has literally been

165
00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:51,080
Speaker 1: a month wait because every time we restock this Moon

166
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:54,480
Speaker 1: Bought Moon milk, the nh gag like clear it out.

167
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:58,240
Speaker 1: I think last time it was twelve hours, like insane.

168
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:02,880
Speaker 1: This is our biggest stock yet, so I'm hoping it

169
00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:06,320
Speaker 1: doesn't go like too crazy. But if you're listening to

170
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:09,680
Speaker 1: this episode in real time, moon Milk has just been

171
00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:12,720
Speaker 1: restocked and I would get onto it because I'm sure

172
00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:15,840
Speaker 1: it won't last that long like last time. But yeah,

173
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:19,200
Speaker 1: moon Milk was such a game changer for me just

174
00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:21,200
Speaker 1: because I am a bit of like a wired person.

175
00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:29,280
Speaker 1: This episode is brought to you by Naked Harvest Supplements,

176
00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:32,680
Speaker 1: the natural supplement company I co founded with my brother.

177
00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:36,120
Speaker 1: This company was really brought to life because I have

178
00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:39,520
Speaker 1: been using supplements for such a long time since the

179
00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:43,400
Speaker 1: start of my fitness journey. But what I really struggled

180
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 1: to find was all natural supplements without the crap, that

181
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:51,920
Speaker 1: were tailored to women's health and that actually tasted good.

182
00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:56,080
Speaker 1: And that's how Naked Harvest Supplements was born. Our hero

183

189
00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:25,600
Speaker 1: strawberry clouds, Oh my god. And tropical iced tea, which

190
00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:28,440

191

193
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:41,120
Speaker 1: vegan protein. I know our nhgang loves cooking with it

194
00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:44,080
Speaker 1: or using it in that post workout smoothie, and so

195

00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:30,560
Speaker 1: But let's get back into the episode. So, guys, sleep

206
00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:33,640
Speaker 1: is a huge thing for me. It's just kind of

207
00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:36,360
Speaker 1: getting back into that routine and actually sticking to it.

208
00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:38,960
Speaker 1: The next thing I want to chat about is like

209
00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:44,439
Speaker 1: food wise and for me, and right now a huge

210
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 1: focus is just getting back to whole foods and removing gluten.

211
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:52,840
Speaker 1: So I've done a lot of research into autoimmune conditions.

212
00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:56,440
Speaker 1: Obviously this is personal, very personal to me, but I'm

213
00:12:56,480 --> 00:13:01,280
Speaker 1: removing gluten. It can just like trigger different things in

214
00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:03,959
Speaker 1: the body and it's just not good. And I wasn't eating,

215
00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:07,840
Speaker 1: you know, too much gluten beforehand. I've always been kind of,

216
00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:11,160
Speaker 1: you know, quite health conscious in that way when everyone

217
00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:13,560
Speaker 1: you know, a couple of years ago when you were

218
00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:17,439
Speaker 1: told gluten was the devil. But I am removing it

219
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:20,800
Speaker 1: like a lot more than before. Whereas I was just

220
00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:23,200
Speaker 1: kind of a bit sort of easy going, was now

221
00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:27,120
Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, no, I can't eat gluten. And so

222
00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:29,960
Speaker 1: that's just something personally I'm doing for my audiommune condition,

223
00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:34,560
Speaker 1: but also with meals, like I found that I was

224
00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:38,199
Speaker 1: just getting so like, you know, the ease of I

225
00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:41,000
Speaker 1: have a really busy day at work and I wouldn't

226
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:43,440
Speaker 1: you know, meal prep and I wouldn't have anything ready.

227
00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:47,080
Speaker 1: So I'm really trying to meal prep right now, and

228
00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:49,280
Speaker 1: I make a double dinner and then I have that

229
00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:53,760
Speaker 1: for lunch. I also bought a couple of new cookbooks recently.

230
00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:56,280
Speaker 1: I'm someone who I love cooking, like I have my

231
00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:59,480
Speaker 1: own you know, cooking ebook, but I just haven't been

232
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:02,200
Speaker 1: that in inspired this year, and it's more when I

233
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:05,440
Speaker 1: get busy. So I'm getting back to I just want to,

234
00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:08,800
Speaker 1: you know, try some different recipes and experiment in the

235
00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:11,320
Speaker 1: kitchen because that's like definitely a happy place for me,

236
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:14,680
Speaker 1: and uh, you know, just something fun I can do

237
00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:17,640
Speaker 1: with food. And then you know, I'm not gonna lie

238
00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:20,360
Speaker 1: like I am ordering Uber eats a couple of times

239
00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:24,400
Speaker 1: a week when it's all too much, and I currently

240
00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:28,400
Speaker 1: love Mexican. My gym Shark manager I was saying, she's

241
00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 1: like Georgie, every time I watch your YouTube videos and

242
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:35,040
Speaker 1: you order Uber EAT's like you're always sitting there eating

243
00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:38,120
Speaker 1: Mexican having a chat. And I'm like, I love mechskin

244
00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:40,520
Speaker 1: because it's like, you can you know, still order like

245
00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:43,760
Speaker 1: uber eats or whatever and I just get gyg and

246
00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:47,120
Speaker 1: it's all, you know, it's rice, it's whole foods, it's

247
00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:50,880
Speaker 1: quawk Like, yeah, I'm honestly not too worried. So that's

248
00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:53,800
Speaker 1: kind of what I'm doing with food, just focusing on

249
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:58,360
Speaker 1: whole foods and removing gluten. And then the next pillar

250
00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:03,000
Speaker 1: would be exercise. I'm actually someone who loves to do

251
00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:08,680
Speaker 1: like workouts and like hectic workouts, like I'm such a

252
00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:13,480
Speaker 1: leo and just like I have so much masculine energy guys,

253
00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:17,880
Speaker 1: and like I love a super crazy hit workout, like

254
00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:20,960
Speaker 1: I remember I used to do Fit Stop and I

255
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:24,480
Speaker 1: do like the thousand Rep challenge and like love it

256
00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:26,600
Speaker 1: and thrive up that. And I know not everyone's like that,

257
00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:30,400
Speaker 1: but with this autoimmune condition, a huge factor and symptom

258
00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:34,320
Speaker 1: is I'm just so fatigued all the time, and I've

259
00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:37,080
Speaker 1: kind of realized this year is like I just can't

260
00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:40,000
Speaker 1: do the workouts I'm used to. And so a huge

261
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:44,320
Speaker 1: reality check for me recently is like realizing that exercise

262
00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:48,280
Speaker 1: doesn't have to be this like crazy hectic workout that

263
00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:51,960
Speaker 1: makes you super sweaty. It can actually just be you know,

264
00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:54,960
Speaker 1: moving your body and doing it for more for like

265
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:59,360
Speaker 1: the mental health and the endorth in side, rather than

266
00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:01,960
Speaker 1: to like rush the walk out, if you know what

267
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:05,480
Speaker 1: I mean. So my like, yeah, I view and exercise

268
00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:10,840
Speaker 1: has changed considerably. I have cut out almost all my

269
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:14,280
Speaker 1: hit and cardio. I'm not doing any right now. My

270
00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:17,560
Speaker 1: body just like cannot deal with it. It just does

271
00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:19,600
Speaker 1: not have the energy and I just need to listen

272
00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:25,040
Speaker 1: to it. And so I actually also just joined a gym,

273
00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:27,720
Speaker 1: and now like these are literally just like random thoughts

274
00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:29,920
Speaker 1: that came to my head, but like I'm kind of

275
00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:33,880
Speaker 1: regretting it because I'm just not that interested. Like I

276
00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:37,720
Speaker 1: have dumbbells at home, I have a kettle bell, I

277
00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:40,960
Speaker 1: have like you know, I love making up my own workouts.

278
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:44,480
Speaker 1: I have everything at my disposal, and I'm just like

279
00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:48,640
Speaker 1: I think I'd rather just do home workouts. And like, guys,

280
00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:53,280
Speaker 1: there's that many free workouts on YouTube on you know,

281
00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:57,120
Speaker 1: my page, Like we have so much at our disposal,

282
00:16:57,400 --> 00:17:03,360
Speaker 1: at our disposal. Wow. And so I'm actually scaling it

283
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:07,560
Speaker 1: down with workouts, not doing any hit. I am incorporating

284
00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:11,879
Speaker 1: walks a lot more and then doing kind of like

285
00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:15,240
Speaker 1: follow long workouts, whether that's yoga and pilates on YouTube

286
00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:17,440
Speaker 1: a couple of times a week, and then just doing

287
00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:20,399
Speaker 1: home workouts. And it's it has been an adjustment because

288
00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:22,639
Speaker 1: I am someone who loves that sort of you know,

289
00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:26,199
Speaker 1: sweaty workout, but I really just need to scale it

290
00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:30,040
Speaker 1: back so you know, sometimes it's not more as better,

291
00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:34,440
Speaker 1: And that's been a huge learning curve with my exercise

292
00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:38,800
Speaker 1: right now. All right, the next pillar that I go

293
00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:44,600
Speaker 1: back to focusing on is destressing. So I mentioned this before,

294
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:50,280
Speaker 1: but they do say autoimmune conditions can be caused by stress,

295
00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:53,280
Speaker 1: and I'm look, I'm not surprised. You know your girl

296
00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:57,080
Speaker 1: is very stressed. It's not so much stressed. I just

297
00:17:57,680 --> 00:17:59,840
Speaker 1: I do a lot, like I put a lot of

298
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:01,960
Speaker 1: pressure on myself, and I like to do a lot,

299
00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:06,160
Speaker 1: and I constantly like to be doing things like it's

300
00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:10,000
Speaker 1: it's almost like a blessing and a curse because you know,

301
00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:12,560
Speaker 1: I feel like I achieve so much and do so much,

302
00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:16,199
Speaker 1: but also like can I not just like chill and

303
00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:20,800
Speaker 1: relax and be happy. I can, But I guess I

304
00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:25,520
Speaker 1: have always just been this super fast paced person and

305
00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:29,840
Speaker 1: this condition just has been a super big like reality

306
00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:33,200
Speaker 1: check of like you need to chill. And I think

307
00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:34,960
Speaker 1: we can all kind of take a note from this

308
00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:41,199
Speaker 1: book and realize that when we destress our body, thanks

309
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:46,439
Speaker 1: us so much for me, it can look so different.

310
00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:49,760
Speaker 1: So I'm very open about being a seeing a psychologist

311
00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:53,200
Speaker 1: and just having someone who's not you know, like tim

312
00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:57,000
Speaker 1: or family that I can just like offload a lot

313
00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:02,520
Speaker 1: of like emotional stuff has been so good for me personally,

314
00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:06,080
Speaker 1: just because I do tend to hold a lot of

315
00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:09,840
Speaker 1: things in and I can kind of just like overthink

316
00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:16,320
Speaker 1: things too much, which can cause stress. So there's that. Also,

317
00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:19,080
Speaker 1: I have been a lot better with boundaries around work,

318
00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:21,159
Speaker 1: so you know, making sure I'm shutting off at a

319
00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:24,600
Speaker 1: reasonable time and making sure I'm having a lunch break.

320
00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:27,000
Speaker 1: Literally today I had my lunch break and I sat

321
00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:29,280
Speaker 1: out in the sun and I got a juice and

322
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:32,480
Speaker 1: it was just really lovely. So I'm trying to do

323
00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:35,320
Speaker 1: that a bit more. And then also something I do

324
00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:39,480
Speaker 1: talk about a lot is like having some nothingness time.

325
00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:42,840
Speaker 1: So I am someone who's like I like to fill

326
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:45,119
Speaker 1: my time. So you know, if I'm going on a walk,

327
00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:49,000
Speaker 1: I'm listening to an educational podcast, or if I'm cleaning,

328
00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:51,840
Speaker 1: I'm listening to an auto book, and I kind of

329
00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:56,199
Speaker 1: like to fill all my time with being productive. And

330
00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:59,000
Speaker 1: a huge thing for me has been like allowing myself

331
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:02,040
Speaker 1: that I don't to be productive all the time. I

332
00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:04,960
Speaker 1: can have this like kind of quote unquote nothing time,

333
00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:08,679
Speaker 1: and that has been quite nice and it's almost getting

334
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:12,160
Speaker 1: comfortable with it has been huge And then a huge

335
00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:16,720
Speaker 1: thing for me is just like letting go control has

336
00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:21,119
Speaker 1: been such a load off. And I'm someone who's I'm

337
00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:23,760
Speaker 1: a bit of a control freak, so you know, I

338
00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:26,960
Speaker 1: like to micromanage my team and you know, be in

339
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:31,320
Speaker 1: control of everything. But letting go and realizing, you know,

340
00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:35,479
Speaker 1: we hire certain people within our business to do certain jobs,

341
00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:39,199
Speaker 1: and I need to let them do their jobs, and like,

342
00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:42,600
Speaker 1: you know, if there are team members who could help me,

343
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:45,600
Speaker 1: you know, taking the time to teach them so they

344
00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:47,640
Speaker 1: can help me in the future rather than just having

345
00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:50,000
Speaker 1: that mentality of like, oh, it's just quicker if I

346
00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:52,919
Speaker 1: do myself. I have been a lot better with that,

347
00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:57,320
Speaker 1: and yeah, I guess, like just overall, just like taking

348
00:20:57,400 --> 00:21:02,680
Speaker 1: some time for myself and not you know, constantly putting

349
00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:05,280
Speaker 1: to dos on my list. I tend to do this

350
00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:08,320
Speaker 1: thing where, you know, as soon as i'm quiet or

351
00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:12,639
Speaker 1: I've finished a project, I have all these like big imaginative,

352
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:16,639
Speaker 1: creative ideas, which is great. I'm so grateful to have

353
00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:20,520
Speaker 1: these ideas, but also I'm like, Georgia, can we just chill?

354
00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:23,840
Speaker 1: So that's what I'm going to be focusing on kind

355
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:27,760
Speaker 1: of this summer, like no new projects. We do have

356
00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:29,480
Speaker 1: a lot going on with the Naked Harvest, but that

357
00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:32,040
Speaker 1: is a little bit different because we have a whole

358
00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:34,800
Speaker 1: team and I feel, you know, so supported, and I

359
00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:37,600
Speaker 1: feel like we can have big launches and do that

360
00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:41,440
Speaker 1: sort of stuff and it doesn't weigh too much of

361
00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:45,200
Speaker 1: me anymore. But with my own personal business, even though

362
00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:48,480
Speaker 1: I do have help, I'm kind of you know, limiting

363
00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:52,760
Speaker 1: things and just being almost just super intentional with things.

364
00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:55,239
Speaker 1: So it's like, you know, when I'm working, I know

365
00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:57,560
Speaker 1: what I'm working on, I get it done, and I'm

366
00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:00,800
Speaker 1: not just kind of like lingering with things. So that's

367
00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:03,400
Speaker 1: what I'm kind of doing to like destress. And then

368
00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:06,600
Speaker 1: of course the whole exercising list is going to help

369
00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:09,200
Speaker 1: with that, and just focusing on my self care time

370
00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:13,399
Speaker 1: is huge. So that's that pillar. And then the last

371
00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:16,399
Speaker 1: pillar is supplementation. So this is going to be so

372
00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:20,119
Speaker 1: different for everyone. And you know, like I highly recommend

373
00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:24,280
Speaker 1: if you aren't feeling well and you kind of can't

374
00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:27,560
Speaker 1: work it out of getting like a blood test done

375
00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:32,119
Speaker 1: of all your levels of different nutrients. I do this

376
00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:34,480
Speaker 1: like every couple of years and there's always something I'm

377
00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:38,240
Speaker 1: kind of deficient in and then I will supplement it

378
00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:40,600
Speaker 1: to get it higher and then I do feel a

379
00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:44,080
Speaker 1: lot better. So you know, I recently got all my

380
00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:47,080
Speaker 1: blood's done with my thyroid, and what came back is

381
00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:50,080
Speaker 1: also like my zinc and iron was a bit low

382
00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:55,600
Speaker 1: and just like some random supplements, sorry, some random like

383
00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:59,119
Speaker 1: minerals that I'm quite low and so I'm supplementing with those.

384
00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:02,240
Speaker 1: I'm also on like a hormone balance Tonic, which has

385
00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:06,800
Speaker 1: been so good, getting my periods really regular and on time,

386
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:10,320
Speaker 1: and just you know, sorting out the hormone side of things.

387
00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:13,679
Speaker 1: But yeah, I highly recommend kind of don't just like

388
00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:19,760
Speaker 1: guess and buy a million like vitamins and supplements you

389
00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:22,320
Speaker 1: could do. Want to be like intentional and actually get

390
00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:24,960
Speaker 1: what your body needs. And so I highly recommend, you know,

391
00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:29,440
Speaker 1: seeing a health a health practitioner and doing that because

392
00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:34,760
Speaker 1: that has really helped me. And yeah, that's kind of

393
00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:38,919
Speaker 1: my five pillars that I go back to any time

394
00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:43,879
Speaker 1: I kind of need a referb in my whole health

395
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:48,239
Speaker 1: and well being routine. So that's what I'm currently focusing on.

396
00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:51,160
Speaker 1: It's like I said, it's nothing like groundbreaking or anything

397
00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:54,720
Speaker 1: like that. But I think sometimes we do opcon over

398
00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:58,320
Speaker 1: complicate things, and when we simplify it and we're like, Okay,

399
00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:01,200
Speaker 1: these are the pillars I'm focusing on, I can make

400
00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:04,920
Speaker 1: little steps and like I said, just realizing it's one

401
00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:07,720
Speaker 1: foot in front of the other. A lot of this

402
00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:12,560
Speaker 1: year I have felt quite hopeless in the way of,

403
00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:15,399
Speaker 1: you know, having this autoimmune condition and then getting tolder,

404
00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:17,639
Speaker 1: I'll have to be on medication for the rest of

405
00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:21,159
Speaker 1: my life and all these different things, and I've almost

406
00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:24,480
Speaker 1: felt like a bit like defeated and helpless and like

407
00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:27,480
Speaker 1: what's the point And it's so easy to get there,

408
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:31,280
Speaker 1: but I kind of have to bring myself back and go, look, Georgia,

409
00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:33,879
Speaker 1: you know, there's there's little changes we can make. We

410
00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:37,680
Speaker 1: can focus on your stress and sleep and exercising less,

411
00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:40,880
Speaker 1: and let's just do that and see what happens, rather

412
00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:45,000
Speaker 1: than trying to do this whole like over overhaul and

413
00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:47,760
Speaker 1: then kind of not getting anywhere and it being all

414
00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:50,439
Speaker 1: too much. Because that's another huge thing too, is like

415
00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:53,800
Speaker 1: we don't want to overwhelm ourselves because it kind of

416
00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:57,680
Speaker 1: defeats a purpose. But yes, that is my quick little

417
00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:01,280
Speaker 1: Friday episode for you chatting chatting about the health bill

418
00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:04,520
Speaker 1: is that I'm getting back to. Like I said, if

419
00:25:04,560 --> 00:25:07,680
Speaker 1: you're currently someone who isn't feeling one hundred percent as well,

420
00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:11,879
