The Gutsy Goddess ™️ Podcast
Cut through lots of BS advice and learn how to feel like a badass by intimately LISTENING to your body instead of ignoring it. You won’t be told things you already know like “just drink more water” or “exercise more often”. Instead, you will learn holistic and gutsy habits that serve your body so that you can have energised days, comfy sleeps, and, frankly, awesome poops. With every episode, you will gradually master how to overcome nasty brain fog, gross bloating, and soul-sucking periods by listening to your gut. I'm Cordelia, an award-winning and Board Certified Holistic Nutritionist. Throughout my adolescent years, for about a decade, I didn’t know what was wrong with me. Mood swings, bloating, weight gain, and depression were frequent visitors in my life. Every doctor’s visit was a shot in the dark. I now know that there is a better way to care for your body than just taking the advice of standardised healthcare as gospel. I started this podcast so no one has to feel as lost and alone as I did. Tune in. Healing happens in the community.

S.1 Ep.12 Healing Unleashed: Rewriting the Rules for Women's Health, Boundaries, and the Hidden Price of 'Free' Healthcare
Today’s episode marks the end of season one of the Gusty Goddess podcast. It’s been a journey and a labour of love. Thank you for all the support you’ve accorded me, and I will be back soon for season two. In this episode, I will equip and challenge you to become an advocate for your health. I’d love for us never to be afraid to raise our voices for what we believe is best for our health. Nothing would make me happier than seeing more people investing in their health and doing everything in their power to make sure they have little or no pain. Imagine having a moment to challenge a doctor’s opinion on what’s ailing you because you believe there is a better solution and are ready to pursue it. That’s advocacy! I remember when I broke my elbow. Doctors told me they would fix it with some screws, but my arm would never be straight again. I refused to buy into that and got a physiotherapist to work with me to fix my elbow and make it straight again. The process was painful but worth it at the end of the day. Today I share some golden nuggets on how you can advocate for your health. Listen in and learn. Key talking Points of the Episode: [02:05] Learn how to communicate your health needs [16:13] Always record your doctor’s visits. You can have a look at them later to see if you missed anything, and in case of questions, bring them up [19:18] How to identify your health gaps [24:33] You need to set some boundaries [27:18] Build a health team Magical Quotes from the Episode: “You are healthy to the level in which you serve yourself. You need to be engaged and understand how to advocate and stand up for yourself.” “You have to think about the cost of free health care if you don’t invest in yourself.” “Health needs to be considered all the time, not just when you’re sick.” “It’s your responsibility to be happy. And it’s your responsibility to lead yourself to the level of health that you desire.” Resources Mentioned Connect with me If today's show has brought you closer to the answers you've been seeking, don't forget to share it with a friend who needs to hear it and give us a five-star rating.

S1. Ep.8 Rest, Repair, and Digest: Delving into the Relationship Between Sleep and Gut Health

S1. Ep.8 Rest, Repair, and Digest: Delving into the Relationship Between Sleep and Gut Health
Day by day, we are witnessing an increase in sleep deprivation. People are sleeping less for different reasons. Some people are working too much and have little time to sleep, while others can’t sleep. Lately, I realized how blessed I am to have the superpower to fall asleep. Many people struggle with sleep issues which I believe can be solved. In this episode, I talk about sleep and your gut. There is a deep relationship between your gut and sleep. For instance, if you had a meal just a few minutes before bed, you would realize you’ll struggle to fall asleep. When lying down, our bodies lack the gravity advantage to push food down our digestive systems. Thus, the food sits in the stomach, which is not good for us. This may cause issues like GERD, which have an impact on our sleep. Also, if you consume beverages like tea or coffee just before bedtime, you might encounter some challenges falling asleep. In this episode, I aim to educate you on how to sleep better. I will help you understand REM (rapid eye movement) and the Circadian rhythm, how your gut plays a role in interrupting your sleep, how you can create a sleep sanctuary, and share a few things that can help you with sleep. Grab your notebook and pen; you should take some notes. Key Talking Points of the Episode: [01:57] Our sleep is under attack [07:20] Understanding the REM (rapid eye movement) cycles and Circadian rhythms [10:09] Gut issues that can impact sleep [14:46] How to create your sleep sanctuary [25:32] Things that can help with sleep Related Links & Resources: Connect with me If today's show has brought you closer to the answers you've been seeking, don't forget to share it with a friend who needs to hear it and give us a five-star rating.

S1. Ep.7 Stress & the Gut
Have you ever observed how your gut behaves whenever you are under any stress? You may realize that you experience a lack of appetite, constipation, diarrhea, and slowed digestion, among other things. These symptoms are usually your body telling you to act on your stress. I want to talk about your gut and stress in this episode. We’ll examine how stress affects your gut and health, food allergies, sleep, and how to handle internal inflammation and stress. I’m passionate about today’s topic because I have much information to give. There were seasons when I thought I had a functional tool kit to deal with stress. At some point, what used to work for me stopped working, and I had to return to the drawing board. I’ve concluded that what used to work for me then might not work for me now. I have to keep evolving. One thing that has remained constant is that I must keep listening to my body and paying attention to know what it needs. For instance, there was a time when I used to have six to eight eggs in a day. I’d have them with anything from hard-boiled, scrabbled to having in salads. After sometimes I realized they were clogging my brain, and I had to go slow on them. Listen in and learn more about your gut and stress. Key Talking Points of the Episode: [05:05] Deconstructing stress [09:34] How stress can affect your health [12:33] Dealing with food stressors [14:01] How I went off gluten [16:41] What is internal inflammation, and how to fight it? [20:25] Managing blood sugar roller coaster [25:29] You need fibre [27:01] How to handle stress Magical Quotes from the Episode: “90% of the worry that I stress myself out over, never happens. If it does happen, like it’s a rare to the degree that I have created in my mind.” “We are not what we eat. We are what we absorb and assimilate.” “Everybody has a different reaction to food. And it’s not always going to be so obvious in the sense of the physical digestive symptoms.” Resource(s) Mentioned in This Episode: Erin Skye Kelly – Connect with me If today's show has brought you closer to the answers you've been seeking, don't forget to share it with a friend who needs to hear it and give us a five-star rating.

S1. Ep.6 Entrepreneurial Resilience: Navigating Chronic Illness and Business Ownership
Being healthy and trying to build a business is hard enough. Building a business and trying to manage a chronic health condition is torture, but it doesn't make it an impossible task. Navigating this is quite easy. To start with, you don't work a 9-5 so you have a flexible schedule that allows you to catch your breath, and against general views, being a business owner with a chronic health condition is easier to manage than having to work round the clock. The key word is understanding the stages your body goes through, finding a balance, and maintaining it. This is not a journey you could decide to go through by yourself, you need help from people who have successfully made this work for themselves. So, in this episode, I have given step-by-step guidelines on how you can find a balance between building and running a successful business and managing a health condition. Key Talking Points of The Episode: [03:30] The crazy dynamics of a 9-5 [08:20] Guidelines to having a healthy business life [14:20] How to manage the challenges of bad health and still keep business running [18:50] The importance of approaching things with a positive energy Magical Quotes From The Episode: “In the short term, you'd have to make changes and if it was a chronic health picture, then of course, you'd have to make adaptations and make things work for you and your lifestyle.” “For me, sleep is non-negotiable, drinking water is non-negotiable.” “Life doesn't happen to you, it happens for you.” “You have to find that balance that works for yourself.” “Life is a trip and sometimes things come up and come out of left field and can knock us on our butt.” “Don't put so much stuff on yourself that is going to take you further into a deficit state.” “Wealth is not just financial, wealth is something we get to find for each of us, for me, it is location independence. ” Resources Mentioned in The Episode: Connect with Me: If today's show has brought you closer to the answers you've been seeking, don't forget to share it with a friend who needs to hear it and give us a five-star rating.

S1. Ep.5 Embracing Vulnerability
Do you have days when you feel hopeless? You feel like giving up and do not want to continue doing what you’re doing. It happens to me sometimes, yet I tend to be the type of person who is always looking for the silver lining in everything. I have come to appreciate that we must learn to give ourselves credit for micro things like making our bed, making a delicious meal, or working out. The other thing we should do is allow ourselves to feel the emotions, whether positive or negative. When we learn to master our emotions, it can go a long way. One thing that has helped me understand the motions of my emotions is the PDF called The Wheel of Emotions. It would be best if you tried it too. In this episode, we look at how to deal with hopes and desires when it comes to your health and how you can change that into something extraordinary. Listen in and learn. Key Talking Points of the Episode: [05:04] Understanding the Wheel of Emotions [08:12] What’s the emotional house you live in? [13:11] The importance of mastering your emotions [22:20] Give yourself credit Magical Quotes from the Episode: “The path to health is never linear. When you think you’ve got things figured out, there might be a stressor; it’s a different season.” “We tend to be a culture that makes fear-based health decisions and not necessarily proactive ones.” “We don’t give ourselves credit for anything.” “Figuring out what works for you is as important as figuring out what doesn’t.” Resources Mentioned in the Episode: Connect with Me: If today's show has brought you closer to the answers you've been seeking, don't forget to share it with a friend who needs to hear it and give us a five-star rating.

S1. Ep.2 Defining Your Values: What Are My Values?
Who are you? What values define you? What do you stand for? The above are some of the questions I had to ask myself when I hit my early 30s for me to define my values. Values are essential because they help us find our true North when we are lost or need to make tough decisions. On the flip side, our values can work against us. In this episode of the Gutsy Goddess podcast, I share my core values and why they are important to me personally and professionally. The core values include: Integrity: This is huge. What’s a woman without integrity? Humour: I love a burst of hearty laughter. Humour is essential in many of my relationships and people that can make me laugh are among my nearest and dearest. Accessibility and accountability: To me, accountability is the commitment to keep learning and improving. Accessibility is my availability to serve those who need me one-on-one or in group settings. Empathy and compassion: These are the biggest of them all. As a holistic nutrition professional, I have dealt with gut issues personally and know precisely what it feels like. I can tell what my clients are going through. Would you like to learn more about my values? Listen to this episode. Also, feel free to let me know what your values are. Key Talking Points of the Episode: [02:08] My values and why they matter to me [03:08] Health as a value for me [06:26] My professional values that relate to growth [15:44] My board certification in holistic nutrition [18:55] The truth about supplements Magical Quotes from the Episode: “When things get difficult, your values act as a moral compass framework to help you make the best decision for you.” “Our bodies are wild and wonderful but weird. Everybody is so different.” “Integrity to your values is not always easy, depending on what they are and where you live.” “Your health is worth the investment.” Resources Mentioned: Connect with Me: If today's show has brought you closer to the answers you've been seeking, don't forget to share it with a friend who needs to hear it and give us a five-star rating.

S1. Ep.4 Food Insecurity and How it Leads to Trauma
According to Canada’s Food price report put out by Dalhousie University, the food price report for 2022 predicted a five to 7% increase in food costs. The most significant increases would be predicted for restaurants at six to 8% and bakeries and vegetables at five to 7%. Take a moment and imagine how many people will be affected by the above statistics. We’ll have families who cannot afford to put meals on their tables and others who do not have enough. As a holistic nutrition professional, I do not want to foresee a situation where people cannot meet their nutrition needs. In this episode of the Gutsy Goddess Podcast, I share different places you can get food support, different things we can do to deal with the current food insecurity, meal planning, and prepping, and how food insecurity is a threat to a healthy society. Key Talking Points of the Episode: [01:23] Canada’s food price report predicts increases in food costs [01:57] The increased food prices in Canada [03: 16] How food insecurity is relevant to holistic nutrition [10:14] How can you support people who are having food insecurity? [15:12] Growing food in a community garden [18:38] Meal planning and meal prepping [20:48] What to do if you need help Magical Quotes from the Episode: “Don’t just increase your fibre. If you’re dehydrated and up your fibre, you’re going to constipate yourself.” “I hope people know they can go to a food bank or other community resources to support those struggling to purchase vegetables.” “Our brain needs a lot of energy and calories because thinking requires food.” “There’s a lot of opportunity, but the trauma piece of food, everyone will have it differently.
