Hello and welcome back to State of Mind, with me Grace Kingswell
Today my guest is the amazing Kate Pope. Kate is a Nutritional Therapist, GAPS practitioner and the founder of Regenerative Cooking School and Mama Baby Biome, the online course that teaches you to reconnect with your local and ancestral food systems in order to heal and support your baby through conditions such as eczema, leaky gut, allergies and intolerances, and teaches you how to introduce solids, how to prepare and prioritise the most nutrient dense foods for you and your family.
I came across Kate when I most needed her, I was feeling exhausted and lacking direction with my son’s health, and I knew I could be doing better for him regarding what he was eating - and this coming from a Nutritional Therapist! Sometimes as Mums, we’re so exhausted by it all it’s hard to do the things you know you need to - so I signed up to Kate’s course and haven’t looked back.
In this episode we talk about our birth stories, healing from trauma, preparing your body for birth, pregnancy and the post party period, what to do if your baby was born via c-section and how to help their microbiome recover and establish, the difference between meat stock and bone broth, first foods for babies and so much more.
It’s also the first time both myself and my guest have cried recording an episode. This is such a vital listen for any parent that wants to do the best for their child. Thank you to Kate and the amazing work she does.

Fertility and the Gut Microbiome with Natasha Evans

Hello and welcome back to state of mind with me, Grace Kingswell. For those of you that are new to the pod - hello hi, I’m Grace, a Nutritional Therapist and new Mum! Hence, this is the first episode I’ve released in a while because time is limited these days with a nearly 9-month old in tow.
Today I’m chatting to one of my great friends and colleagues, Natasha Evans. Tash is a Nutritional Therapist specialising in fertility and gut health, and this episode focuses on the relationship between the two - I.e. how all of our different microbiome systems in our bodies influence our fertility outcomes. It’s a really fascinating listen.
Tash has also just launched her Fertility 360 method - 9 steps to 9 months, which she tells us all about in this episode.
I highly recommend working with Tash if you’re trying to conceive, or if you want to work on your gut health...or ideally (because they’re so connected), both!
You can fine Tash on instagram @nenutrition or get in touch via her website nenutrition.co.uk

Welcome back to State of Mind! This episode covers everything to do with WATER.
We start off by discussing water structuring, an amazing concept that details how water in its natural state (i.e. moving, never still) organises itself to actually be more hydrating for our cells.
We discuss water filters and compare the best on the market, fluoride, minerals, the pitfalls of reverse osmosis, alkaline water (fad?) and much more.
Thank you to Matt for chatting to me! Matt is the founder of supplement brand Elivide, and coincidentally, he's just launched a rather amazing counter top water filter! Go check it out at elivide.com
