Consuming highly processed foods can have disadvantages, such as impacting energy levels and nutrient intake, and it's crucial to prioritize whole foods and nutrient-dense options. Online nutrition information can contribute to health anxieties and misinformation, and it's important to critically evaluate sources and seek evidence-based guidance from qualified professionals.  Navigating nutrition information online can be challenging due to conflicting advice and unregulated sources. Understanding head, heart, and stomach hunger can help in making mindful food choices. Fasting may have different implications for women, and individual context should be considered. The power of food for skin health lies in nourishment and what is added to the diet. Approaching nutrition from a perspective of addition and abundance is more beneficial than focusing on subtraction and scarcity.   Today's podcast is sponsored by my BKF Online Program:  https://briankeanefitness.com/bkf-online   (Website) http://nicsnutrition.com/   (Twitter / X) https://x.com/nicsnutrition   (Instagram) https://www.instagram.com/nicsnutrition/   (Youtube) https://www.youtube.com/nicsnutrition   Her new book:  https://www.amazon.co.uk/How-Not-Eat-Ultra-Processed-life-changing/dp/1529940117/ref=asc_df_1529940117/?tag=googshopuk-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=697364111492&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=15625223310232723756&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=1007864&hvtargid=pla-2332339303124&psc=1&mcid=0e105306ee49367ca7628c893e36e8cf&th=1&psc=1&gad_source=1

About Hannah Hannah is mum to Alice and Henry and lives with her husband Nick in Christchurch, New Zealand. She has worked in Human Resources for the past 13 years, within the health, media and manufacturing/design industries. She has a Bachelor of Arts (majoring in Psychology) and a PG Dip in Human Resources Management. When Hannah became a Mum, she was amazed to learn that there were very few solutions for dealing with some of the everyday challenges that being a mother presented. She knew that she wasn’t alone when struggling to deal with mum guilt, feelings of inadequacies and feeling a little disconnected to her husband. She longed for tips and advice; what she says she needed was an HR manager of her own to guide her through this new role. The Kite App was then born. Episode highlights Hannah’s journey into motherhood Hannah’s experience of birth trauma Hannah’s diagnosis of bi-polar disorder and signs and symptoms - why it was challenging to look for warning signs The impact on her relationship with her husband The support and care women received How mental health issues affected Hannah’s confidence Healing second birth The Kite App and how it began The results of a survey conducted by Hannah - issues with sleeping/overwhelm/disconnection from their partners/lack of time for themselves The practical solutions offered by The Kite App Programmes within Kite for mums of teenagers The mother village in the context of mums of teenagers The future of Kite The positive story of Hannah and how being diagnosed, and living, with bi-polar disorder you can still follow your dreams About The Kite App The Kite App takes you through 14 mini programs that we affectionately call “Kites”. These are on a range of personal development topics that are specific challenges of mum life. These include sleep, stress management, relationships, mum guilt and coping with the juggle- to name just a few. There is even a “mum friendly” technology detox. You create your own journey, stopping and starting Kites as you wish - it’s as easy as that! Why a Kite? The kite is a wonderful analogy for mum life. We spend all of our time and efforts helping our kids fly their kites high. So much so that we often leave our own kites on the ground, whilst we truly deserve to be soaring too. There is nothing more beautiful than a strong powerful kite flying gracefully in the sky, and that is why we feel the concept so perfectly describes what this program endeavours to do for all Mums. Being a Mum is hard work, that’s why we have created this beautiful app to support you on your journey and provide you with the resources you need to be successful.

With a background in the corporate world and a PG Dip in HR I have enjoyed the life style of an expat for many years. Living in 5 countries and gaining a truly global perspective has been invaluable to me and social media played a key role in keeping up with friends and family all over the world. When I say I am passionate about real estate I mean it. My love for architecture, design and of course homes in any shape of form made the choice to become a realtor a natural progression. After all where we live and how we live is the essence of our lives. Having moved as many times as I have I appreciate that even more.On today's Show Claudia Talks about Using Social mediaTargeting your audienceGiving valueSelling a lifestyleAnd much more.........A few of Claudia's favorite writers/authors she likes to read.Tony RobbinsCharles DickensThomas Hardy You can find Claudia at See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
