In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Daniel Kirkbide, a highly experienced functional medicine practitioner, to dive into some of the most common yet frustrating health concerns: brain fog, bloating, and hormone imbalances. We discuss why these symptoms often go undiagnosed or misunderstood in traditional healthcare settings and the importance of getting a comprehensive blood analysis done.

Dr. Kirkbide explains how conventional medical training sometimes doesn’t fully equip practitioners to interpret blood tests in a way that identifies the root causes of these issues. Instead of simply managing symptoms or applying quick fixes, we explore how functional medicine takes a deeper, holistic approach to understanding your body's unique needs.

Tune in to learn about the key contributors to these symptoms, why identifying the underlying cause is essential, and how proactive, personalized care can make all the difference in your health journey.

My celibacy story is one I am SO incredibly proud of as it has taught me more than I could have ever imagined over the past 2 years!

Embracing celibacy is something I’ve chosen with deep intention, a way of stepping more fully into my feminine essence. For me, it’s not about simply abstaining from intimacy, but about cultivating a deeper, more sacred relationship with myself. By keeping my energy sovereign and free from external distractions, I’m reclaiming my power, no longer looking outside myself for validation. This journey is about healing the wounds around my own worthiness—letting go of past patterns and honoring my inherent valueThrough celibacy, I’m learning that my worth isn’t tied to how desirable I am or how much attention I receive.

Instead, it comes from the love, respect, and reverence I show myself. In this space, I’m turning inward, nourishing the depths of my being, and allowing my emotions, desires, and inner wisdom to fully bloom.

This episode I’m joined by the beautiful Breanna May founder of The Mind School.

I wanted to chat with her because her back story is so powerful. From her teaching background to now being the coach of all coaches - she has a wealth of knowledge and I was lucky enough to absorb all her goodness by attending The Mind School for 6 days a couple of months ago.

And what I learnt - BLEW MY MIND, but most importantly changed my family for the better.

This conversation is so important & I’m so excited to be sharing Breanna’s brilliance with you all x
