Her Best Version – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Most of us are becoming more conscious about what we eat, the skincare we use, and even the cleaning products in our homes… but have you ever stopped to think about the clothes touching your skin all day?

Activewear has become a daily uniform for many women - whether we're exercising, running errands, or simply living life on the go. But what if those fabrics are made from materials that may be impacting both our health and the environment?

Today's guest, Jade Payne, founder of Wild Body Australia, knows this conversation all too well. After being diagnosed with an extremely rare kidney cancer at just 33 years old, Jade began questioning the hidden toxins in everyday life - including the synthetic activewear she had worn for years as a CrossFitter and busy mum of four.

What began as a deeply personal health journey has now turned into a powerful mission to help women move, live, and dress more consciously.

In episode 140 of Her Best Version, we explore the reality of synthetic fabrics, the potential health implications of wearing them daily, and how Jade turned one of life's most challenging moments into the creation of a purpose-driven brand.

Money in the bank doesn't always mean security… and today's conversation may completely change how you see your financial future.

Today on Her Best Version, I'm joined by the inspiring Carmelle Pavan — General Manager at leading Australian bullion company As Good As Gold Australia, and co-founder of As Good As Gold Women, the first precious metals company in the world dedicated entirely to empowering women toward financial freedom.

Carmelle brings her deep knowledge of the financial system into this conversation, as we explore a topic that feels more important than ever: the truth about money, inflation, and how we can create greater financial security in uncertain times.

Together, we unpack how money began, how the modern banking system works behind the scenes, why money sitting in the bank can quietly lose value over time, and why precious metals like gold and silver have remained trusted stores of wealth for centuries.

This is such an empowering episode, especially for women who want to feel more informed, more confident, and more in control of their financial future.

Did you know what you place on your skin, ends up in your bloodstream? This is something I'm constantly reminding my girls when they attempt to draw on their skin.

The movement of low-tox and body skin care products is starting to gain momentum as people are finding out about the harmful ingredients that make up their fav products.

You're most likely aware of this for skin & body care products, but something that is often ignored is the fact that what you wear closest to your skin, can also impact your health, particularly your hormones.

Did the penny just drop? Are you thinking about all the items that make up your wardrobe?

Over the past couple of years, I've been much more conscious about the choices I make when purchasing clothes- opting for less, higher quality items, or those I will get the most wear from. But there'e something more important I'm looking at- the material it's made form.

Today, I discuss an overlooked but incredibly important topic: the materials we surround ourselves with daily—our clothing, bedding, and even towels—and how they can impact hormone health.

Plus, I share healthier, low-tox alternatives and practises that support your hormone health, fertility and so much more.

Are you starting to think about introducing your baby to solid foods as the months pass post birth? 

Or perhaps you've already embarked on this journey, but confused if you are nourishing your baby with adequate nutrition, or perhaps impacting their gut health.

When it was our turn to start thinking about solid good introductions, I had my thoughts on the topic and previous recommendations I had given for parent patients in clinic. 

But I still continued to research and was continually shocked by the conventional recommendations of solid food introduction.

How could synthetic fortified foods be superior over home prepared foods cooked from whole foods? 

Why wasn't gut health of babies being considered? 

What foods naturally contained the highest level & absorption of critical nutrients baby's require for those health & development?

Tune in to learn the factors to consider when introducing solid foods to your baby, to support their gut, immune and overall long term health.

I'm often asked why we had a home birth first time around. Wasn't I scared something would go wrong? 

Truth is, I was much more fearful about having to give birth in a hospital. I immersed myself in research over the years as a Naturopath and took note of patients who described their births as a (challenging) but an empowering and beautiful experience. I was confident we were making an informed decision that was right for us.

When it comes to pregnancy and birthing decisions, that is what I encourage patients and Path To Glowing Mumma members to do. Gather all of the information, take in both sides of any argument and make a decision with what resonates for you and your partner.

 To help you explore the decisions and possible challenges you may be faced with in the lead-up to birth, and learn facts and stats that your current health care provider may not be sharing with you, I have invited Adelaide based Chiropractor, Doula & Childbirth educator, Amanda Chow for a chat on the podcast.

In todays podcast episode Amanda explores:

> Supporting your body physically during pregnancy and leading into birth

> Busting myths around the dangers if a VBAC (vaginal birth after caesarean) 

> An important chat around 'big babies'

> Birthing tools and exercises to help your experience

> Positive advice for you as you approach birth.

In 2019 a review into chiropractic care for children was launched in Victoria. The Victorian health minister was already making assumptions about the outcome when she made the announcement. These assumptions were very obviously not positively geared towards chiropractic. Part of the review was an online survey. Both the public and health practitioners from all around Australia were invited to participate.

An overwhelming 21,824 submissions were received from members of the public who had accessed chiropractic spinal care for a child under 12 years. This is the largest number of submissions received to date through Engage.Vic, which is the Victorian Government's Online Consultation platform.

The public responses indicated very strong consumer satisfaction. Of all respondents, 99.7% reported a positive experience with the chiropractic care of their children. The overwhelming majority of parents reported that chiropractic care helped their child, with 98% indicating that their child improved after treatment.

This shows a patient satisfaction that many health professions would be envious of.

So what exactly do chiropractors do with babies that results in such a group of satisfied parents?

Today I'm speaking with Dr Catherine Kenyon, chiropractor of twelve years who is extremely passionate about helping families achieve optimal health and wellbeing through her holistic style of chiropractic. Catherine has such a craving for learning, in her first year out of university she began a three year course in paediatric chiropractic to expand her knowledge of this unique age group. At the same time she also studied attended weekend seminars in Applied Kinesiology. Once finishing both those extended courses, Catherine began her journey into another chiropractic technique – NET. These three qualifications give her a unique and very holistic approach to her patients health.

Catherine has a particular interest in helping families of young babies learn all they can about optimising development from birth; through her discussions on developmental milestones, to her tummy time workshops and everything in between.

In our chat, Catherine explores:

> How birth can be a trauma for babies and the role an adjustment can play post birth for their health and development. 
 
> The impacts and contributing factors of flat head syndrome and ways you can prevent this in your little one.  
 
> The brain development of babies & thoughts on creating sleep routines at an early age. 
 
> What the normal major motor development stages of a baby are and how to make decisions to assist them.
 
 > Using carriers safely for both Mum and baby.

> The best way to keep babies safe while travelling in the car.

Do you want to know how coffee can actually improve your hormones & fertility? I thought you'd be intrigued.

Last week I introduced one powerful practise for detoxing, particularly in the weeks, months and years leading up to a conscious conception. You can catch up here. 

This week, I wanted to share more for you if you're ready to step it up when it comes to detoxing your body, reducing inflammation & therefore balancing hormones preconception... & yes, it involves coffee! 

My friend & fellow Naturopath Kirsty King is back to educate & inspire you to get your coffee on... or shall I say in?

Today I'm excited today for you to share more on one of our fav detox methods of drum roll.... coffee enemas. You will learn:

If you're considering coffee enemas for the first time you're probably screwing up your face or thinking you'll never do that. But truth is, that was my first reaction too. I first learnt about the benefits of enemas while studying Naturopathy and it took me a good 5 years to actually go ahead and try one.

This topic was also something my friends had a giggle over and I remember it was a talking point on my hens day as, I was telling them how I'd be doing one the next day for reducing my hens hangover.

In my chat with Kirsty, you will learn:

• How a coffee enema helps you to detox and increase your powerful antioxidant function.
• When to consider a coffee enema.
• How to easily perform a coffee enema.
• The difference between a coffee and chamomile tea enema.  
• When you would do a colonic instead of a coffee enema.

Are you seeking safe detoxification practises that will support your hormones, gut and fertility health?

I remember the first few times I recommended detox practises (other than diet and natural medicine supplements) to my patients... going back over ten years ago now.

I would get side ways looks and I could see their thoughts of me being some kind of witch doctor were running through their heads. I also used to write blog posts back in the 'notes' section of Facebook, yep that's showing my age. My friends named me 'Naturo Nerd' for some of the so called whacky practises I would write about.

But credit to most of my patients, they gave my recommendations a go and I got to witness improvements in hormone, gut, skin and reproductive health as they persisted alongside my supportive dietary guidelines and natural medicine supplementation.

After releasing the revamped version of my Preconception Guide last week, called Path To Conscious Conception, I wanted to share with you one powerful detox practise that can support your health in the lead up to bringing a baby into your world.

Introducing... castor oil packs.

In this episode learn:

- How castor oil packs can improve your health, including hormones, fertility, gut health, pain and anxiety. 

- What a castor oil pack is

- Tips around performing a castor oil pack

- What type of castor oil to look for

 Do you want to know what steps you can take to educate and protect the children in your life from sexual abuse? Of course you do.

When it comes to childhood sexual abuse, we can no longer put our heads in the sand. I know it's a heavy topic, but one that requires awareness and education around what steps can be taken to both prevent and take action to protect children from sexual harm. 

After recently waking up to the extent of paedophilia right here in Australia and having another eye opening conversation in episode 28, I wanted to do more. 

 I recently ordered a copy of the childhood picture book 'Only For Me' and invited author, Michelle Derrig to continue this conversation and help keep our children safe. 

In episode 33, Michelle explores:

• The most vulnerable ages for sexual abuse and the disturbing stats around child sexual abuse here in Australia.
• What signs and indications to look out for as a parent to pick up if a child has been sexually abused.
• What steps should to take if you suspect childhood sexual abuse has occurred.
• Important steps to take, to educate children and keep them safe from sexual harm.
