Hello and welcome back to STATE OF MIND with me, Grace Kingswell.
I have an incredible guest for you today - Robyn Puglia. Robyn is a Nutritional Therapist and IFM Certified Functional Medicine Practitioner. She specialises in Autoimmune Disease, Gluten-Reactive Disorders including Coeliac Disease, Complex Cases and Unexplained Illness.
As well as a busy clinical practice, she provides technical support and education for Regenerus Labs, including Doctor’s Data, DUTCH Labs, BCA Lyme and Viral Labs and Cyrex.
Robyn is a well regarded speaker and lecturer in the UK, presenting on Autoimmune Disease, Gut Health, complex biochemistry and clinical case studies.
More recently she’s started up a Functional Medicine Mentoring Program @AFMMP along with Alex Manos and Laura Stirling, which I completed, and that’s where my girl crush on Robyn stems from!
I wanted to quiz Robyn on some really basic concepts but get her to go into depth about what’s actually happening in our bodies on a cellular level. We speak about blood sugar, sleep, alcohol, coffee and diet dogma and oh my goodness you will learn SO much from this episode - it’s one of my all times faves.
Robyn is also the queen on analogies, so don’t worry - it’s all really easy to follow.

Hello and welcome back to state of mind with me, Grace Kingswell.
Today’s guest is psychosexual and relationship therapist Kate Moyle. Kate works with people to recognise their own personal understanding of their sexuality and sexual health; with the view that issues have roots in psychology, emotion, the physical body, and a person’s history and culture. Ultimately her aim is to help people get to a place of sexual health, happiness and wellbeing.
In this episode we discuss sex tech, porn, libido and fertility among many other topics. It’s a fascinating lesson and my thanks goes out to Kate for taking the time to educate us all with her wisdom on what is a very important topic.
Kate is on instagram @katemoyletherapy and she host her own podcast too called The Sexual Wellness session.

Man-made illness, mental health, nudes and body neutrality with Imogen Ivy

Hello and welcome back to STATE OF MIND, with me Grace Kingswell.
Today’s guest is someone I’ve been wanting to talk to for ages, she’s always at the top of my Instagram stories and I devour everything she puts online. Her name is Imogen Ivy and she’s a creative director, photographer and videographer from Australia, living in London.
What drew me to Imogen to begin with was her dancing, her joyful, uninhibited, dancing-in-the-middle-of-the-street in London type of dancing - the kind that lifts your soul and makes you smile ridiculously at your phone screen, whilst also simultaneously thinking “gosh I wish I could move my body like that.”
As the months passed I started to get fragments of a health battle via Imogen’s Instagram, she speaks a lot about movement as a privilege, and having had that privilege taken away form her in her past. She’s eloquent and well-versed, in the way that only one with personal experience could be, on the topics of mental health and body neutrality too.
I was really intrigued.
What follows in this episode is an utterly heartbreaking, in places, and raw account of her journey with mental health that went from being probably quite a standard issue to a medically-induced, man-made shit show.
Thank you to Imogen for sharing her incredible story with us, and providing lots of humour and important messages along the way. You can find her on instagram @imogenfkingivy
