I'm back and with a mini "rebrand"...At a Total Loss is now Living the Loss Life because well, that's what I'm doing every single day and I'm here to share it with you.When I first hit record, I was drowning. I had just lost Brody only 4 months prior. I was raw, wrecked, and trying to survive the total devastation of stillbirth. That title—At a Total Loss—fit where I was. But grief doesn't stay in one place...and neither do we.In losing him, I've also gained so much:Perspective. Purpose. A community. A deeper love. A different version of myself.So it's time, for the podcast to evolve, too.In this episode I fill you in on what's been happening since I took a mini break (whoops) and what's happening next. I had a wild experience in Albania and I finally tell Wolfy's birth story since he turns TWO YEARS OLD on June 6th! holy moly. All of this is to let you know you're not alone no matter what stage you're in. Thank you for staying on this path with me. We're still grieving. We're still healing. But now we're living even though we've lost.

A potential game-changer could be on the horizon for almond growers.

Episode SummaryIn this episode of Fat and Fertile, I'm joined by the brilliant Dr. Alice Keeley – also known as The HeavyWeight Midwife. Alice has over 20 years' experience as a midwife, completed a PhD on plus-size pregnancy care, and is fiercely committed to challenging the weight stigma baked into our maternity systems.We get stuck into the reality of being pregnant in a bigger body – from being weighed without consent at booking appointments, to automatic referrals that leave people feeling confused, judged, and “high risk” before anything's even gone wrong. Alice breaks down how these moments impact care, and shares her passion for creating a more personalised, compassionate, and evidence-based approach to pregnancy support.We also explore Alice's own journey – how her background in social justice shaped her care values, how she came to launch The HeavyWeight Midwife in 2022, and why she believes confidence and communication are essential for navigating pregnancy with autonomy and self-trust.In this episode, I talk about:Why BMI-based guidelines don't tell the full storyHow weight stigma shows up in maternity care (and what to do about it)What's actually useful to know about risks in plus-size pregnancyHow to advocate for yourself at appointments – even when it feels scaryWhy scans, referrals, and medication should always involve informed consentThe surprising role that things like wind and tissue density play in ultrasound scans (!)And why water birth access is a fat-positive issue we should all be talking aboutAlice also shares how her online community and trimester-by-trimester courses are helping thousands of people feel seen, supported, and prepared for pregnancy and birth on their own terms.Links and ResourcesEmail me: nicola@nicolasalmon.co.ukFind me on Instagram: @fatpositivefertilityMy book: Fat and Fertile – available via AmazonAlice's website: theheavyweightmidwife.comConnect with Alice on Instagram: @theheavyweightmidwifeFind Alice's support programmes and membership via her websiteListen to Alice's podcast: The HeavyWeight Midwife PodcastGet InvolvedNicola would love to hear from you!

In this episode of Fat and Fertile, I'm diving deep into something I don't talk about nearly enough—what fat positive fertility coaching actually is, and why it matters so much.I've been a fertility coach for over seven years now, and while I often share tools, insights, and resources, I realised I haven't really broken down how coaching works or what it looks like to be supported in a fat-positive, weight-neutral space. So that's what this episode is all about.I share how my own experience of being diagnosed with PCOS as a teen—and being told I'd never have children—led me to this work. And I explain how my journey through unlearning diet culture and stepping away from weight loss gave me the clarity and drive to support others doing the same, especially those navigating fertility in bigger bodies.In this episode, I talk about:What coaching means to me (and why it's not about “fixing” you)The unique challenges fat folks face when trying to get pregnantWhy we deserve support that's free from judgement and shameWhat it means to create safety in your nervous system as you navigate this processHow to explore health-promoting behaviours without dietingAnd why separating your worth from your ability to conceive is a game-changerI also explain what a fat positive approach really looks like in practice—how I work with you to move from where you are now to where you want to be, using tools that centre your autonomy, your lived experience, and your joy.If you've ever felt like you're battling the system just to be seen, heard, or supported—this one's for you. And if it resonates, I'd love to invite you to book a free 30-minute chat with me. No pressure, no pushy sales pitch—just a space to connect and see if coaching might be the right next step for you.Resources & Links:Email me: nicola@nicolasalmon.co.ukFind me on Instagram: @fatpositivefertilityMy book: Fat and Fertile – available via AmazonJoin my community: Ko-Fi MembershipThanks for listening, lovely.

"The feeling I hope people will have on this farm is that deep sense of safety and surrender. The feeling of being deeply nurtured and nourished. That feeling you get from visiting your great aunt or your grandmother. That one elderly female family member where you go when you just want to be deeply nourished and you feel completely at ease and safe. All your worries just sort of dissolve instantly.”We're in great company with Fleur and Nicole, partners in life and in profession who serendipitously found and meticulously stewarded Sterrekopje Farm in South Africa, a biodiverse farm and soulful sanctuary where curiosity blooms, creativity flourishes, and laughter is ever-present.Here, they have carefully curated a community of chefs, farmers, holistic practitioners, and artists to share, teach and connect with guests– in an environment where every ritual, every bite, every breath is a chance to celebrate the gifts of Mother Nature, from 'soil to soul'.In this episode, as we celebrate Women's History Month around the world, Nicole and Fleur share with us their serendipitous story, their thoughtful travel tastes, their everyday rituals—providing us with the fertile ground and nourishing energy we crave to pursue our own dreams and desires. Top Takeaways[1:45] A story of how two Dutch women, since early childhood, fell in love with travel to cultures beyond their familiar Western world and how a serendipitous flight became fate that would lead them on their next big adventure together. [6:30] How Nicole knew Sterrekopje Farm, ‘the bright star above the little mountain,' was the sanctuary she had been searching for—a beloved family farm dating back to the 17th century that once produced wine and olives and was in need of nurturing back to health. [10:15] Over the course of five years, Nicole and Fleur have grown alongside the farm itself—transforming monoculture into biodiversity, harvesting their first honey, and witnessing a beautiful season of abundance that extends beyond the land to the guests who visit—which today flourishes as a wild, fertile sanctuary.[13:20] Nicole reminds us all, “What is so important is to get people out of their heads and into their bodies because we're living so much in our heads these days. And to really connect with your body—that opens the ability to connect to other people, but also to yourself and to nature.”[16:50] Close your eyes and listen as Fleur transports us all to a day in the life at Sterrekopje Farm, painting a stunning picture with a palette of serene senses. [22:00] What some may call “a beautiful mess,” is intentionally a curated collection of fabrics and antiques from a multitude of cultures—creating not a standard hotel with sterile rooms, but a soulful place with personal sanctuaries.  [27:20] Discover what makes Sterrekopia a playground for adults to relearn the art of play—a place where curiosity and creativity blossom.[32:20] Here, ‘farm to table' tastes more like ‘soil to soul' as Nicole and Fleur invite their guests to satiate conscious indulgences and savor communal dining experiences.Notable Mentions Jennica Arazi of Marbella Club in SpainVisit For YourselfSterrekopje Farm Website | @sterrekopjefarm

"The shift from chasing to trusting is the real work. It's easy to stay in a loop of doing more research, more protocols, more control. But remember, the real magic is when you stop overcompensating and start trusting yourself." Topics Discussed The surprising fear of success in fertility and how it keeps you stuck Why your brain might see pregnancy as another way to fail instead of freedom The deep-rooted programming that keeps you addicted to “doing” instead of “being” How unworthiness and identity play a major role in fertility struggles Breaking the habit of seeking validation through achievement Why anxiety over fertility can escalate into pregnancy anxiety (and how to prevent it) The three powerful questions to ask yourself to shift out of fear and into trust "If you deep down don't believe you deserve to become a mother, you'll subconsciously create obstacles to prevent it." Truth # 4: The Hidden Block to Fertility Success: Overcoming Suppressed Emotions During Infertility & IVF https://www.podbean.com/eas/pb-z2s2n-18073a4 Truth # 3: The Hidden Impact of Overworking & Stress on Your Fertility During Infertility & IVFhttps://www.podbean.com/eas/pb-ywdwv-17ea0ee  Truth # 2: How to Overcome Overthinking, Worry & Fear During Infertility & IVF https://www.podbean.com/eas/pb-dzrwn-17c5c7d Truth # 1: The Illusion of Control: How Letting Go Can Transform Your Fertility Journey During Infertility, IVF & Beyond https://www.podbean.com/eas/pb-j6pya-17b061a Hello, Beautiful! Monica here, and today we're diving into a mind-bending, slightly uncomfortable (but wildly important) topic—FEAR OF SUCCESS. Yep, you read that right. Not fear of failure. Fear of actually getting what you want. Sounds crazy, right? I mean, isn't the whole point of this journey to become pregnant? But let's be real—your brain has been so busy obsessing over the struggle, the next supplement, the next protocol, the next thing—that the idea of finally crossing the finish line is, well… TERRIFYING. Because what happens when you're no longer the one “trying”? What happens when you do get pregnant? Your subconscious is sneaky like that. It convinces you that staying in the hamster wheel of research and control is saferthan stepping into the unknown of success. Because success means transformation. It means surrender. And let's be honest—Type-A, overachieving, Google-addicted Mabel is not a fan of surrender. In this episode, Monique is rolling her eyes at Mabel's overthinking, Monica is here to gently guide the way, and YOU are going to uncover whether fear of success is secretly sabotaging your journey. You'll also get three game-changing questions to sit with (preferably under a tree, because let's add some nature to the healing process, shall we?). So, if you've been stuck in doing instead of trusting, if pregnancy feels just as scary as infertility, or if your brain has ever whispered “What if I mess this up?”—this episode is your wake-up call. Let's break the cycle and step into the version of you who is ready to receive. "For so long, you have been the woman who's trying. That's who you are. That's how you relate to yourself, your partner, your doctors. The idea of not being her anymore? That can feel like a loss—even though it's what you want more than anything." Three Questions to Help You Move Past the Fear of Success Why do I feel more comfortable being the woman who is trying rather than being the woman who is pregnant? If I stop chasing and just trust, who even am I? What does that version of me look and feel like? How do I let go of the identity of the one who is trying when I've been living in it for so long? Timestamps 00:00 – Welcome to Finding Fertility! Let's talk about the sneaky fear of success. 01:33 – Why getting pregnant might feel scarier than failing (subconscious sabotage 101) 02:56 – “What if I don't deserve this?” How unworthiness keeps you stuck 04:26 – The real reason you can't stop doing (and why sitting under a tree might help) 06:23 – Mabel's lesson on repeating the same old patterns in fertility 07:19 – The 3 questions you need to ask yourself today 08:34 – If you stop chasing and start trusting… who even are you? 10:00 – The science behind stress in pregnancy (aka, get that cortisol down NOW) 11:29 – Letting go of the identity of the “woman who's trying” 12:56 – How to shift into the version of you that's ready to receive "The magic is in the mundane. When you feel that anxiety bubbling up, the real work is sitting in the uncomfortableness of not doing." I'm deep-diving into TEN truths, peeling back the layers of chaos with practical tools, empowering insights, and her real-life experiences. Whether you're feeling stuck in your fertility journey or wrestling with overwhelm and doubt in another area of life, these conversations offer a roadmap to healing and transformation.

Le Sahara, aujourd'hui le plus grand désert chaud du monde, n'a pas toujours été une étendue aride et inhospitalière. Il y a plusieurs milliers d'années, cette région était une savane luxuriante, peuplée d'animaux et d'humains. La transformation du Sahara en désert est due à une combinaison de facteurs climatiques naturels et de changements environnementaux à long terme.Un Sahara vert il y a 10 000 ansPendant le dernier maximum glaciaire, il y a environ 20 000 ans, le Sahara était déjà un désert. Mais vers 10 000 av. J.-C., la situation change radicalement grâce à un phénomène appelé l'optimum climatique africain. Ce changement est causé par des variations de l'orbite terrestre et de son axe d'inclinaison, qui influencent la répartition des rayons solaires et modifient les régimes de mousson.Ces transformations entraînent des précipitations plus abondantes en Afrique du Nord, faisant du Sahara une région verdoyante, parcourue par de grands lacs, des rivières et des forêts. Des peintures rupestres découvertes dans le désert témoignent de la présence d'hippopotames, girafes et éléphants, ainsi que de communautés humaines pratiquant l'agriculture et l'élevage.Le retour de l'ariditéVers 5000 av. J.-C., l'inclinaison de la Terre change de nouveau, modifiant les régimes climatiques et réduisant progressivement les pluies. Ce processus, appelé aridification du Sahara, s'étend sur plusieurs milliers d'années. La végétation disparaît peu à peu, les lacs s'assèchent et les populations sont contraintes de migrer vers des régions plus hospitalières, notamment vers la vallée du Nil, où naîtra la civilisation égyptienne.Les causes de la désertificationPlusieurs facteurs expliquent cette transformation :1. Changements astronomiques : Les variations de l'orbite terrestre influencent la répartition des pluies en Afrique. 2. Effet d'albédo : Avec la disparition de la végétation, le sol clair du Sahara réfléchit davantage la lumière solaire, accentuant le réchauffement et l'aridité. 3. Action humaine ? Certains chercheurs suggèrent que la surexploitation des ressources par les premiers habitants (déforestation, surpâturage) a pu accélérer la désertification. Un processus encore en coursAujourd'hui, le Sahara continue de s'étendre vers le sud en raison du changement climatique et des activités humaines.

Are you open to allowing science and spirituality?  Special Guest Episode: Lindsay Goodwin is a born intuitive medium, a trailblazer in natural reproductive medicine, energetic spiritual fertility, and a fertile mindset through subconscious mind reprogramming. With nearly two decades as a licensed health provider specializing in fertility and pregnancy and a deep connection to the spiritual realm, Lindsay has guided hundreds of clients on their journey to parenthood. Her unique signature integrates natural reproductive medicine with energetic spiritual fertility practices, creating a holistic approach to fertility, pregnancy, and conception that connects the physical body with the energy of the soul and the soul of unborn children in the spiritual realm. After a near-death experience, Lindsay was reawakened to her unique connection to the spiritual realm and her ability to guide spirit babies into the physical world. For several years, she has been receiving profound insights from unborn children—both those still in the womb and those yet to enter the physical world. These magical connections, often revealed through vivid dreams, visions, deep states of consciousness, or one-on-one sessions with her clients, have become a hallmark of her work. Lindsay is currently working on a book about her method of Energetic Spiritual Fertility, which integrates spirit babies, higher consciousness, healing from trauma and energy blocks of the subconscious mind, and energy healing to welcome babies into the physical world.

This is the third interview in Com d'Archi with architects or engineers working in the United States. From the practice of the daring Frenchman Jean-Michel Humbert, based in Washington, to that of the great engineer Eric Long, of one of the most important architectural firms in the world, SOM, and now Jeff Kovel, architect and founder of Skylab Architecture, who delivered the fascinating world headquarters of the sports brand Nike in 2022. Both of them work from the West Coast of the USA. It is very interesting to see how the American architect sees the way to build today and on a large scale, in the context of climate challenges.I know that the most informed of Com d'archi's listeners, and not the least, have already fully appreciated the opportunity that these unpublished testimonies represent in France in order to understand the different ways of apprehending the practice: differences in scale and energy, network logics, etc. I would like to take this opportunity to invite all our listeners, whether they are lay people or experts, new or faithful to the program, to push their curiosity and listen to this new testimony! They will not be disappointed.Did you know that Nike has just delivered its world headquarters in Portland? This project covers an area of 140 tennis courts. How can such an achievement meet the ecological challenges of our era? That's what we're going to talk about today through the testimony of the founder Jeff Kovell of the architectural firm Skylab who designed this building, with the great Serena Williams associated to the creation process, as well as the executives and teams of the American giant Nike. But not only because Jeff Kovel, in his life, also crossed the singer Lenny Kravitz and designed without knowing it the house of the series Twilight became cult!
