This Mini Mikkipedia digs into what truly keeps weight off long-term: self-regulation, flexible restraint, and a rock-solid routine. Mikki shares research-backed insights (inspired by prep for an interview with Brandon DaCruz) showing why maintenance gets easier after 2–5 years as habits hard-wire, and why frequent self-monitoring, meal planning, and clear relapse protocols matter more than “perfect” weeks. We unpack how exercise protects appetite regulation better than diet-only deficits, why consistency across weekends beats weekday austerity, and how identity shift and intrinsic motivation drive staying power. You'll hear practical ways to course-correct after lapses, limit decision fatigue, and build supportive environments that withstand holidays, stress, and hyper-palatable food cues. Expect zero gimmicks—just evidence-based strategies to help you feel in control and sustain results without white-knuckle dieting.HighlightsSelf-monitoring, planning, and “relapse range” (≈3%) for early course-correctionExercise vs diet-only: appetite regulation and why movement mattersWeek-to-week consistency (including weekends) over boom-and-bust cyclesIdentity shift, intrinsic motivation, and flexible restraint (not perfection)Handling real-world barriers: travel, social pressure, stress, and trigger foods Contact Mikki:https://mikkiwilliden.com/https://www.facebook.com/mikkiwillidennutritionhttps://www.instagram.com/mikkiwilliden/https://linktr.ee/mikkiwillidenSave 20% on all Nuzest Products WORLDWIDE with the code MIKKI at www.nuzest.co.nz, www.nuzest.com.au or www.nuzest.comCurranz supplement: MIKKI saves you 25% at www.curranz.co.nz or www.curranz.co.uk off your first order

Mikki takes a deep dive into BMI, obesity, and a major shift in how obesity is being redefined in the scientific and medical community. Drawing on a recent Lancet Diabetes & Endocrinology Commission report and new cohort data from the All of Us research program, she unpacks why BMI alone is an inadequate measure, how new definitions of preclinical and clinical obesity provide more nuance, and what this means for individuals, clinicians, and policymakers. This conversation highlights the importance of looking beyond the scale to understand true metabolic risk and the wider societal costs of obesity. Listeners will come away with a clearer understanding of why obesity is being reframed as a chronic systemic condition—and why it matters for health outcomes and resource allocation.Highlights:Why BMI falls short in measuring individual health risk.The Lancet Commission's new framework redefining obesity as a chronic condition.Difference between preclinical vs clinical obesity.Study findings: 1 in 5 people with “normal BMI” may still be classified as obese under the new definition.Implications for clinicians, policy, and public health.

In this Mini Mikkipedia episode, Mikki dives into new research from Dr. Fuchs and Professor Luc van Loon on the critical role of protein and activity in preserving muscle during hospitalization. She explains just how quickly muscle mass can decline with bed rest or critical illness, why standard hospital meals fall short nutritionally, and how inadequate protein and energy intake accelerate muscle loss. Mikki outlines practical strategies—from protein targets and essential amino acids to simple activity or electrical stimulation—to help mitigate muscle wasting. She also highlights the importance of “prehabilitation” before elective surgery. Whether you're an athlete, a caregiver, or someone preparing for surgery, this episode offers valuable insights on protecting strength when it matters most.✨ Episode Highlights:Why muscle loss in hospital can reach 3% per day in ICU patientsThe role of protein intake (1.2–1.5 g/kg+) in slowing muscle atrophyHow energy balance influences anabolic resistance and recoveryPractical strategies: protein powders, amino acids, and even bedside activityThe case for prehabilitation before elective surgeryhttps://journals.lww.com/co-clinicalnutrition/fulltext/9900/muscle_preservation_during_hospitalization__energy.233.aspx Contact Mikki:https://mikkiwilliden.com/https://www.facebook.com/mikkiwillidennutritionhttps://www.instagram.com/mikkiwilliden/https://linktr.ee/mikkiwillidenSave 20% on all Nuzest Products WORLDWIDE with the code MIKKI at www.nuzest.co.nz, www.nuzest.com.au or www.nuzest.comCurranz supplement: MIKKI saves you 25% at www.curranz.co.nz or www.curranz.co.uk off your first order

In this Mini-Mikkipedia Monday episode, Mikki unpacks the often-confusing concepts of glycemic index, glycemic load, and glycemic response — and why knowing the difference matters. While glycemic index tables are widely used, they don't always translate into real-world eating, since lab conditions rarely reflect how we actually consume food. Mikki shares insights from her own postgraduate lab days, explains why portion size and food combinations change the picture, and highlights how individual responses can vary dramatically. With research from studies like PREDICT and practical strategies for self-testing, she makes the case that personal glycemic response — not the number on a label — is the most important measure for your health, energy, and satiety.Episode Highlights:The difference between glycemic index, load, and responseWhy lab-based GI values don't reflect real-world eatingHow portion size, food prep, and meal composition change outcomesWhy individual responses vary (sleep, stress, microbiome, exercise)Practical tips for testing your own glycemic response Contact Mikki:https://mikkiwilliden.com/https://www.facebook.com/mikkiwillidennutritionhttps://www.instagram.com/mikkiwilliden/https://linktr.ee/mikkiwillidenSave 20% on all Nuzest Products WORLDWIDE with the code MIKKI at www.nuzest.co.nz, www.nuzest.com.au or www.nuzest.comCurranz supplement: MIKKI saves you 25% at www.curranz.co.nz or www.curranz.co.uk off your first order

This is our final summer re-run, and we're closing it out with a must-listen episode featuring Dr. Mikki Williden - a standout voice in women's nutrition and the lead nutritionist for Hailey Happens Fitness' upcoming Nutrition Happens course.In this conversation, Mikki shares her expert insights on fat loss strategies specifically for peri- and postmenopausal women. We dive into topics like optimal meal timing, macronutrient balance, protein needs, and how hormonal shifts impact body composition. If you're navigating menopause and looking for evidence-based, realistic nutrition tools that work with your physiology, this episode is packed with actionable takeaways.

In this encore of episode #2, Mikki explores the emotional challenges faced by co-parents and emphasizes the importance of understanding the origins of our feelings. She discusses how our thoughts shape our emotions and actions, empowering listeners to take control of their emotional responses. Mikki introduces tools such as Byron Katie's four questions to help individuals reframe their thoughts and create positive change in their co-parenting relationships. What You'll Learn: Understanding that feelings stem from our thoughts, not external circumstances. We have the power to change our thoughts and, consequently, our feelings. Being aware of our thought patterns is crucial for emotional well-being. We cannot change others, but we can change our reactions to them. The importance of questioning our thoughts to gain clarity and control. Byron Katie's four questions can help reframe painful thoughts. Living on autopilot leads to feeling like a victim of circumstances. Choosing intentional thoughts can lead to positive actions and outcomes. Self-awareness is the first step towards empowerment in co-parenting. Old thinking patterns will not yield new results; change is necessary for growth. If this resonates ... you're not alone. And you don't have to figure it out on your own. If you're ready to build a foundation that can't be shaken — reach out.

Mikki dives into the bizarre and controversial “sugar diet” that's been making waves on social media. Once dismissed as just another fad, it's now gaining traction among high-profile influencers, including Mark Bell. Mikki unpacks what the sugar diet actually is, the science behind its surprising short-term results, and why its mechanism might have less to do with sugar itself and more to do with protein restriction and its effects on FGF21. She also discusses the research origins, potential risks, and why this approach may only be suited—if at all—for a very specific subset of people. If you've been curious about the hype, this episode delivers the context, caveats, and science you need before even thinking about giving it a go.Highlights:What the sugar diet actually involves and who's promoting itThe role of protein restriction and FGF21 in increasing energy expenditureWhy short-term studies don't tell the whole story on health impactsGenetic and metabolic factors that could make or break resultsLong-term risks, from nutrient deficiencies to liver stress Contact Mikki:https://mikkiwilliden.com/https://www.facebook.com/mikkiwillidennutritionhttps://www.instagram.com/mikkiwilliden/https://linktr.ee/mikkiwillidenSave 20% on all Nuzest Products WORLDWIDE with the code MIKKI at www.nuzest.co.nz, www.nuzest.com.au or www.nuzest.comCurranz supplement: MIKKI saves you 25% at www.curranz.co.nz or www.curranz.co.uk off your first order

Spencer has dedicated his career to bridging the gap between clinical medicine and the lived realities of people struggling with obesity, cutting through misinformation to focus on what actually works.With the arrival of Wegovy in New Zealand — and the explosion of interest in GLP-1 medications worldwide — their conversation couldn't be more timely. They discuss how these drugs work, how they compare to diet, lifestyle, and older weight loss medications, and why the price tag varies so widely between countries. They also explore the controversies — from “microdosing” to long-term safety, tolerance, and muscle loss — and whether these drugs can genuinely shift someone's metabolic set point or are simply managing symptoms. If you've been wondering whether GLP-1s are game-changing tools or just the latest fad, this episode will help separate the hype from the evidence. Dr. Spencer Nadolsky is an obesity and lipid specialist (DO, ABOM, ABCL) with over a decade of experience. Through practice innovation, digital education, and previous ventures like Sequence and the Docs Who Lift podcast, he's become a trusted, engaging voice in metabolic health.His company, Vineyard, is a virtual obesity medicine clinic delivering personalized, science-backed, and compassionate care.

In this Mini Mikkipedia episode, Mikki breaks down a recent Australian headline claiming that diet sodas increase the risk of type 2 diabetes. Spoiler: the science doesn't support that claim. Mikki dives into the observational study at the centre of the controversy, teasing apart key limitations—like reverse causality, confounding behaviours, and reliance on a single food frequency questionnaire over 14 years. She explains why the idea that diet drinks are as harmful as sugary ones is not only misleading but potentially dangerous for public health messaging. If you've ever wondered whether your Diet Coke habit is sabotaging your health, this episode offers clarity backed by evidence.What You'll Learn:Why observational studies can't prove causationThe concept of reverse causality in nutrition researchLimitations of self-reported dietary data over long periodsHow bias and confounding can distort risk estimatesWhy focusing on overall lifestyle matters far more than zero-calorie drinks Contact Mikki:https://mikkiwilliden.com/https://www.facebook.com/mikkiwillidennutritionhttps://www.instagram.com/mikkiwilliden/https://linktr.ee/mikkiwillidenSave 20% on all Nuzest Products WORLDWIDE with the code MIKKI at www.nuzest.co.nz, www.nuzest.com.au or www.nuzest.comCurranz supplement: MIKKI saves you 25% at www.curranz.co.nz or www.curranz.co.uk off your first order

Since then, he's helped over 115 patients in Taupō put type 2 diabetes into remission—an achievement that's not only reshaped his practice, but challenged the conventional approach to chronic disease management. He was named General Practitioner of the Year in 2021.In this conversation, we explore what "remission" really means in clinical terms, the systems that help sustain it, and the biomarkers that shift most consistently. Glen also shares insights on the psychology of behaviour change, the risks and rewards of keto, and the real-world barriers to scaling this model across New Zealand. They also have a frank conversation of the level of knowledge that GPs have to prevent and treat the modern day health crisis that NZ (like most countries) is facing.Glen Davies: https://reversalnz.co.nz/team/dr-glen-davies/ Contact Mikki:https://mikkiwilliden.com/https://www.facebook.com/mikkiwillidennutritionhttps://www.instagram.com/mikkiwilliden/https://linktr.ee/mikkiwilliden

Mikki dives into the evolving science behind creatine—not just for muscles, but for brain health. Long known as a powerhouse for strength and performance, creatine is now gaining traction as a potential tool for cognitive enhancement and mental health support.

Today we start our look back at some of the most popular episodes of Co-Parenting with Confidence. In this encore of episode #1, Mikki introduces her journey as a life coach and co-parent, sharing her personal experiences and insights on navigating the challenges of divorce and co-parenting. She emphasizes the importance of mindset, self-awareness, and emotional regulation in becoming a confident co-parent. The episode outlines key pillars of co-parenting, including the power of belief, recognizing choices, and being present with the co-parent in front of you. What You'll Learn: Co-parenting requires confidence and intentionality. Divorced families can be whole and complete. Our beliefs shape our feelings and actions. We have the power to choose how we respond. Good co-parenting involves seeing the current reality, not past expectations. Self-regulation is key to effective parenting. We can be a stable influence for our children. Creating space allows for better decision-making. Emotional awareness is crucial in co-parenting. This podcast aims to provide actionable tools for co-parents. If this resonates ... you're not alone. And you don't have to figure it out on your own. If you're ready to build a foundation that can't be shaken — reach out. Let's talk. https://calendly.com/coachwithmikki/co-parent-breakthrough-call Subscribe, leave a review, and share this episode with anyone who might need a fresh perspective on co-parenting!

In this Mini Mikkipedia, I tackle a topic that comes up time and time again with clients and inside Mondays Matter: how to talk to your kids about food without passing on diet culture. If you're a parent trying to model healthy habits without moralising food or triggering disordered thinking, this episode is for you.I explore how to explain your goals to your kids (yes, even aesthetic ones!) while maintaining an abundance mindset. We cover why the issue isn't tracking or meal prep—but the language and energy we use around food and our bodies. This is a practical and compassionate episode for anyone navigating food conversations at home.

Julianne recently led a scoping review that sheds much-needed light on the challenges—and the promise—of using elimination and reintroduction diets for people with RA.In this conversation, we explore the broader aims of Julianne's research programme and what drew her into this niche in the first place. We unpack the motivations behind her review, including the striking lack of standardised protocols, the limitations of popular food sensitivity tests, and the idiosyncratic ways people seem to react to foods.Julianne shares her insights on why dietary interventions remain underutilised in conventional care, despite strong patient interest and some compelling mechanistic leads—ranging from fasting and gut permeability to mast cells and neuroimmune crosstalk. We also discuss the impact of placebo and nocebo responses, the confounding effect of ultra-processed food removal.If you've ever wondered why diet and autoimmunity remain such a grey area—or what it will take to turn that grey into actionable science—this episode is for you.Julianne experienced first-hand the difference diet makes; she experimented with the popular Zone diet in the 90's, and within days experienced increased energy, improved mental focus, and excellent appetite control leading to weight loss without hunger. Further experiments led to trying the paleo diet in 2009, which eliminated auto-immune joint inflammation and menstrual issues.As a result she changed careers, from a designer to a nutritionist, and went back to University to study nutrition at Massey. In 2015 Julianne completed a post graduate diploma in nutrition science.Julianne has been researching the connection between diet and health since 1997, and applying what she has learned to her clients with great success. She has a special interest in how diet controls appetite regulation via control of ‘hunger' hormones. Using these diet principals she has helped hundreds of people lose weight with ease.The effect of diet in reducing auto-immune disease is also a topic close to her heart, and in her post graduate work she researched diet studies and Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and interviewed 10 people who had successfully used a paleo diet to reduce symptoms or go into remission. Julianne is an AIP-certified coach.Julianne is currently doing her PhD research on the topic of dietary strategies for rheumatoid arthritis, which includes an intervention pilot study on the effect of the auto-immune protocol (AIP) diet on RAJulianne's current hobby is powerlifting.

In this Mini Mikkipedia Monday, I break down what you actually need to know about Wegovy (semaglutide), now available in New Zealand. There's a lot of noise around this weight loss medication—from the science to the stigma—and in this episode, I aim to cut through it with facts and context. I cover how GLP-1 agonists work, what makes them effective, and why they're not just another “quick fix.” From appetite suppression and craving control to weight maintenance and muscle loss concerns, I offer a balanced look at the pros, cons, and common misconceptions. Plus, I share my take on why we need less judgment and more empathy when it comes to using tools like these in our broken food environment.Highlights:The difference between Wegovy and Ozempic: use case and dosingHow GLP-1 receptor agonists impact appetite, cravings, and metabolic healthThe role of semaglutide in long-term weight loss and potential downsidesWhy muscle loss isn't a direct effect of the drug—and how to prevent itThe wider implications for public health and why lifestyle vs. medication is a false dichotomy Contact Mikki:https://mikkiwilliden.com/https://www.facebook.com/mikkiwillidennutritionhttps://www.instagram.com/mikkiwilliden/https://linktr.ee/mikkiwillidenSave 20% on all Nuzest Products WORLDWIDE with the code MIKKI at www.nuzest.co.nz, www.nuzest.com.au or www.nuzest.comCurranz supplement: MIKKI saves you 25% at www.curranz.co.nz or www.curranz.co.uk off your first order

In their conversation, Michelle shares how her lived experience with severe anorexia and disordered eating led her to question the very nutrition guidelines she was trained to promote. From confronting the failures of conventional dietetics to advocating for a low-carb, animal-based approach to health and performance, Michelle's story is one of true transformation. She opens up about the pivotal moments that reshaped her life, why she walked away from the system, and how she now helps others find food freedom and real recovery — especially those who've done everything “right” and are still unwell. With a background in both clinical nutrition and elite-level running, Michelle offers a rare and refreshing take on fuelling the body, reclaiming health, and redefining what healing truly looks like.Michelle Hurn, RD, LD is a registered and licensed dietitian, author, and endurance athlete who has become a leading voice in challenging conventional nutrition guidelines. After battling a severe eating disorder and experiencing firsthand the failures of the system she was trained in, Michelle began questioning mainstream dietary advice — particularly its emphasis on low-fat, high-carbohydrate diets. Her personal recovery and professional observations led her to explore low-carbohydrate, animal-based nutrition as a therapeutic tool for both physical and mental health.Michelle is the author of The Dietitian's Dilemma, a powerful memoir-manifesto that blends science, personal experience, and patient stories to advocate for a radical shift in how we approach health through food. She has since dedicated her career to helping others find real recovery and vitality through nutrient-dense, bioavailable foods — particularly those who've struggled with chronic illness, disordered eating, or metabolic dysfunction. Michelle is also an accomplished ultrarunner and a passionate speaker on nutrition, mental health, and the future of dietetics.https://www.instagram.com/runeatmeatrepeat/?hl=enhttps://www.thedietitiansdilemma.net/https://www.americandiabetessociety.org/leadership Contact Mikki:https://mikkiwilliden.com/https://www.facebook.com/mikkiwillidennutritionhttps://www.instagram.com/mikkiwilliden/https://linktr.ee/mikkiwilliden

Mikki takes a deep dive into the myth of the "ideal body weight" and why it's not as simple—or helpful—as a single number on the scale. She unpacks the origins of the concept, tracing it back to life insurance tables and BMI metrics designed for populations, not individuals. Mikki explains why these outdated markers fall short and offers evidence-based alternatives that better reflect health: body fat percentage, appendicular lean mass index (ALMI), and waist-to-height ratio. She also discusses why context—like genetics, lifestyle, and functionality—matters far more than any textbook range. Whether you're on a fat loss journey or simply trying to feel better in your skin, this episode is a must-listen for redefining your health goals with clarity and compassion.
