    Episode 42: Progesterone, the Nervous System and the Truth About Perimenopause with Gemma McGuigan

    Perimenopause is a stage of life, not a condition — but most of us reach it with almost no understanding of what our hormones are doing. In this episode, nutritional therapist and functional medicine practitioner Gemma McGuigan joins Nicola to explain why progesterone (not just estrogen) deserves our attention first, why the nervous system is so often "the big revealer" of underlying health issues, and why so much mainstream biohacking advice doesn't serve women well. Key discussion points: What perimenopause actually is, and why it's often misunderstood Progesterone vs progestin, and what that means for the Mirena coil Why nervous system health shows up first in perimenopause The truth about cortisol and adrenal health Eating for metabolic flexibility — the keto-flexi plate approach Fuelling before exercise, and why it matters more in this life stage Natural ways to support ovulation and progesterone This episode is sponsored by Revive Active — 26 active ingredients for energy, immunity and heart health, available in Boots, Holland & Barrett, Whole Foods and independent health stores nationwide, and online at reviveactive.com To work with Nicola one-to-one, explore her Hormone Insights & Support Service, the Liberate Food Freedom course, or practitioner mentoring, visit www.nicola-moore.com   One-to-One Nutritional Therapy  Hormone Insights & Support Service  Liberate Food Freedom Course  Nutrition Practitioner and Student Mentoring Groups Website | Facebook | Instagram

    Episode 41: The Truth About Chronic Pain, Fibromyalgia & The Brain | Dr Barbara Phipps

    What if everything we thought we knew about pain was incomplete? In this episode of Healthily, I'm joined by GP, pain specialist and educator, Dr Barbara Phipps, to explore the fascinating and hopeful science behind chronic pain. Barbara specialises in helping people living with long-term pain, including conditions such as fibromyalgia, using an evidence-based approach that combines pain neuroscience, lifestyle medicine and nervous system regulation. We discuss why pain is always generated by the brain, how our brains can become overprotective, and why factors such as stress, poor sleep, social isolation and past experiences can all influence our pain experience. Most importantly, we explore why chronic pain is real, why it's not your fault, and why improvement is absolutely possible. This is a compassionate and empowering conversation that offers a very different way of thinking about pain. In this episode, we discuss: Why pain is always created by the brain The difference between acute and chronic pain Fibromyalgia, neuroplastic pain and chronic primary pain explained Why chronic pain is not "all in your head" How stress, sleep and lifestyle factors influence pain The role of fight, flight and freeze in persistent pain Somatic tracking and calming the central nervous system How changing your relationship with pain can be transformative Why movement, nature and social connection are so important Pain, fatigue, brain fog and other seemingly unrelated symptoms Practical tools that can help people begin to feel better A final message from this episode: 💛 Your pain is real. 💛 It's not your fault. 💛 And it can improve.

    If you've ever dabbled in Dry January or found yourself wondering what life might look like with less (or no) alcohol, this is a conversation you won't want to miss. In this episode, Nicola speaks to Nutritional Therapist Katie Addison-Smith, who shares her deeply personal story of navigating critical illness and making the life-changing decision to give up alcohol — permanently. Now, seven years on, Katie reflects on how removing alcohol hasn't taken anything away — it's added more joy, connection, health, and freedom than she ever thought possible. This is a non-judgemental, hopeful conversation about identity, socialising, self-care and how we can reimagine what it means to truly enjoy life. Whether you're sober-curious or simply reflecting on your own relationship with alcohol, this conversation is packed with warmth, honesty and inspiration.

    Episode 39: Autoimmunity, MS & the Cell Danger Response: A Whole-Body View

    What if autoimmunity wasn't the body turning against you, but a call for deeper care and understanding? In this episode of Healthily, I'm joined by Nutritional Therapist Elisa Ferguson, who specialises in supporting people with Multiple Sclerosis (MS). We explore the wider story behind autoimmune conditions – including how stress, gut health, trauma, and diet all interact in powerful ways. We take a look at the cell danger response – a protective mechanism where the body essentially "hits pause" on certain functions to deal with threat. When this response becomes chronic, it can contribute to many chronic conditions, including MS. Together, we reflect on why people often fall down rabbit holes in search of solutions, and how to find a gentler, more effective way forward. This is an episode full of insight, calm, and connection – not just for those living with MS, but for anyone curious about how to support whole-body health through the lens of autoimmunity.  For more resources, support, and information on how I work, visit www.nicola-moore.com You'll find details about my clinic, courses, and services designed to support real-life health — with compassion, clarity and practicality.  Are you a qualified nutritional therapist or student practitioner looking for support in clinic?
