Episode 144: Linking Gut Health and Mental Health with Ashley Carpentier
Monday Jun 12, 2023
Monday Jun 12, 2023
We have talked previously on the podcast about the importance of gut health (Episode 110: How To Promote Gut Health with Prajakta Apte) from a physical standpoint, but we are hearing more and more about the link with mental health. This is a fascinating area that I wanted to dig more into so I reached out to Ashley Carpentier, a Mental Health Therapist and Health Coach that focuses on the link between gut and mental health. Today we learn more about both mental and gut health, how they are linked and how we can support both.

Episode 139: How To Thrive In Sobriety with Jennifer Hirst
Tuesday Apr 04, 2023
Tuesday Apr 04, 2023
Jennifer Hirst is a Sober Coach. She has a great platform on social media where she spreads the message of sobriety, its benefits and helps other to feel accepted in sobriety. As I have opened my eyes to sobriety and quit drinking alcohol entirely almost 2 years ago, I have really noticed how much society normalizes alcohol consumption. Our society celebrates so much with alcohol and especially for moms, it has become big in mom culture. We know there are new health recommendations, particularly in Canada, to limit alcohol consumption and it can be great for our physical, emotional and mental health. Let’s hear more from Jen!
