Hey beautiful people! Let me introduce you to Kate Addamo, she's here to tell us about her approach to business and health. 😊 👋

Kate's passionate about women in business. She wants to redefine what success looks like and how we can achieve that. She helps women build solid foundations to create a sustainable lifestyle and a business that flows. Her approach to mentoring is intuitive and strategic, she looks at the whole picture! Kate explains that we should be looking at work and life, holistically. 💞

In this episode, we cover the following topics:
- what led Kate to start her Life and Business In Flow mentoring business and podcast.
- how her mum's cancer diagnosis changed the trajectory of her life, business and health.
- support our bodies while running a business like menstrual cycle synching, seld-care, food as medicine, goal setting and mindset work.
- what Kate finds are the obvious signs for women in business who need health and hormone support.

She shares her knowledge, stories and perspective on her podcast, Life and Business In Flow.
Her podcast was created to show women that there is another way to do business and life that doesn’t lead to burnout, poor health, overwhelm, and losing themselves in the process of running their businesses.

In this week's episode we have the knowledgeable Georgina from The Holistic Sleep Project! 💤🤩

Georgina is a Holistic Sleep Consultant, Qualified Naturopath and Mother. Her interest in sleep was born out of her own sleep issues and the tragedy of her own mother dying when she was just 13 weeks pregnant with her son. In order to preserve her own wellbeing and mental health in the 4th trimester, Georgina actively prioritised her baby’s sleep and it paid off! He has been a dynamite sleeper ever since! Her baby was essentially her first client! 👼🏻

From there Georgina studied an International Holistic Sleep Qualification while her son was taking his day nap and together with her Naturopathy background created her own uniquely holistic and gradual method to help babies and toddlers get more sleep which in turn completely transforms the family dynamic and positively alters the experience new parents have as their babies are completely well rested and so are they as parents.

She has her own podcast “The Holistic Baby and Toddler Podcast”, consults with families on a 1:1 basis, has a membership “The Sleep Collective” and recently has become a Finalist in 4 International business and Health/Wellbeing Award Categories in the Women Changing the World Awards announced in London during May 2024.

In this week's episode we dive deep into the following amazing topics:


What is the role of a holistic sleep consultant?
What is the 4th Trimester?
Preferred environment for sleeping baby like a pitch black room, white noise on a timer, etc.
Is there a place for feeding to sleep?
Soothing sounds like white noise, shushing, lullabies, anything preferable?
How to know if bubba is overtired, in pain or still hungry when crying?
Societal 'norms' or 'myths to bust' about baby sleeping routines.
Do you find that post-natal depression or anxiety affects sleep for mum, dad and bub's in early days?
How to not feel guilty as a mum with the pressure of everything when bub not sleeping 'well'.
Top 3 tips for promoting positive sleep at home.

In this episode we have the amazing Mel Briggs back for a PART 2 of our thyroid series. In this epsiode we are delving deep into Hashimoto's disease!

Did you know that 80% of hypothyroidism is caused by Hashimoto's autoimmune disease.

So many people with Hashimoto's go undiagnosed and therefore the root cause is never addressed and they end up consistently struggling and having to increase doses of medications.



In this episode we will cover:


What is Hashimoto's
Subclinical versus overt Hashimoto's
Why medication - Thyroxine is not enough
Why Thyroxine is an inactive storage hormone - still needs converting and it doesn’t really address the autoimmune component of the disease.
Nodule/goitre/thyroid cancer risk - Do I need an ultrasound?
Risk of further autoimmune diseases.
How COVID affects autoimmune disease.
Link with EBV and Hashimoto's
Stress and Hashimoto's
Implications in fertility
Environmental toxins and Hashimotos - living on a farm, painters, pesticides, mould exposure, fake tanning, mercury fillings, exposure to chlorine and flouride etc.

Do you suspect you have a hormonal imbalance? Have you been told that you just need to go on contraception to fix everything?

Hormone imbalance is not a one size fits all, there can be MANY varying different symptom pictures for each individual.

Some common signs of hormonal imbalance that can be fixed and are not normal or something you have to just "put up with" can include mood swings, period pain, acne, sugar cravings, fatigue, migraines & headaches, heavy periods, clots in period blood, painful or swollen breasts, spotting throughout the cycle, sleep issues, hair loss, excess hair growth, dry skin, sluggish digestion - plus many more.

There are many different factors that can imbalance your hormones including endocrine disruptors, stress, contraceptives, gut and liver issues just to name a few.

Testing for hormone imbalances is essential and this is something covered in this episode.

How many times have you heard “Your blood tests came back all normal” and you’re sitting there in front of your healthcare practitioner with your eyes hanging out of your head and about to cry if you hear that line once more?


Honestly, the amount of times I have heard that from patients is absolutely uncountable!

Blood pathology is such an exciting part of your health journey and can uncover so much more than what you may think.

Blood pathology optimal ranges are based on the people who get the blood tests done.

Usually “healthy people” don’t get sent to do blood tests all too often. Blood test optimal ranges are based on an average of the people who get the blood tests done.

Therefore, the optimal ranges I want my patients to be in are often different to the “standard” on the lab form.

Blood pathology can mean so much more than just what google says.

I have spent many years studying how to interpret blood pathology better and more in depth. Even a simple iron test can tell us a lot about how your immune system, adrenals and hormones are functioning.



Check out episode 15 here all about iron deficiency and why it's not just about how much red meat you eat or what iron supps you take.



Free optimal ranges pathology guide available for download here so you can cross check your bloods.
