Ferrol acollerá este 8 de marzo unha manifestación con motivo do Día Internacional das Mulleres Traballadoras. A mobilización, convocada pola Marcha Mundial das Mulleres, partirá ás 19.00 horas da Praza de Amada García baixo o lema “Feminismo é revolución: terra viva, pobos libres, vidas dignas”. A convocatoria enmárcase nun contexto que as organizadoras cualifican de crise global do sistema capitalista, con aumento do militarismo, das desigualdades e da precariedade. Desde o movemento feminista denuncian que o incremento do gasto militar e as políticas económicas actuais conviven coa falta de investimento en servizos públicos, afectando especialmente ás mulleres. Tamén sinalan a situación de Galicia nun modelo económico dependente, que precariza o emprego e intensifica a explotación do territorio. A crise do custo da vida, a sobrecarga dos coidados e a defensa da soberanía alimentar e do territorio serán outros eixos centrais da mobilización. A Marcha Mundial das Mulleres defende un feminismo internacionalista, antirracista e popular que aposta por transformar o sistema para garantir igualdade real, dereitos sociais e vidas dignas.

A través do programa Danza 3 da Xunta de Galicia, Xacarandaina aterra no festival 6 Coreógrafas da Estrada para amosar o traballo dunha agrupación que é algo máis ca un ballet folclórico ou unha banda de gaitas. Xacarandaina é un dos grandes recupe- radores do folclore tradicional e un exemplo da arte popular de Galicia. Falo con Quique Peón. "Dende hai case 50 anos levamos facendo un traballo de investigación, de recollida de campo e de posta en valor do folclore tradicional de Galicia". "É unha actuación de rúa onde se van ver distintos bailes e músicas que van ir pasando, que van facer un recorrido polo país. E o que se intenta ao final é que nos sintamos orgullosos da nosa propia cultura". "Eu creo que os grupos folclóricos o que menos teñen que facer é innovar, o que teñen que facer é gardar a tradición o máis pura posible". O Grupo de Música e de Bailes Tradicionais Xacarandaina formouse en outubro de 1978 na cidade da Coruña con membros de distintas agrupacións. O seu obxectivo principal e fundamental é a investigación e a interpretación do folclore do xeito máis fiel posible de como o atopa no seu lugar de orixe, buscando a maior pureza e o parecido coa realidade. Pretende, polo tanto, ser un exemplo vivo da arte popular de Galicia, continuada polo pobo e para o pobo. Para conseguir o seu obxectivo, o Grupo desprazase polas distintas aldeas e poboacións do país, facendo un importantisimo traballo de campo, recuperando así músicas, bailes, danzas, cancións, instrumentos e traxes autoctonos. Froito deste labor, o Grupo ten recollidos e montados a redor de 150 bailes e outras tantas pezas de música. No momento da súa formación o Grupo estaba composto por trinta persoas e dirixiano Rosi Ares e Lino Rivas. Na actualidade, o Grupo confirmano, aproximadamente, uns 50 compoñentes, na súa maioria procedentes da escola de Xacarandaina. O Director do Grupo de Bailes Tradicionais Xacarandaina é, desde novembro de 1.982, D. Henrique Peón Mosteiro. Domingo 5 de outubro 12:30h.

Ferrol acolle un ano máis o prestixioso Festival Atlántica, unha cita ineludible coa narración oral que, nesta edición, ofrece unha proposta especialmente atractiva para coñecer a fondo a súa ría e a súa historia. O venres 4 de xullo, a partir das 10:20 horas, o recoñecido historiador Guillermo Llorca Freire será o encargado de guiar o "Paseo en Barco Narrado: O Porto Ilustrado", unha actividade que promete mergullar aos participantes na riqueza cultural e patrimonial da cidade. A saída do porto de Curuxeiras marcará o inicio desta viaxe única. Llorca, profesor honorario de instituto e autor de numerosas obras sobre Ferrol e a súa comarca, compartirá os seus vastos coñecementos sobre a evolución histórica da ría, dende a súa relevancia como porto estratéxico ata a vida cotiá das súas xentes ao longo dos séculos.

Anabell Gago 🔊"É algo interesante facer pezas específicas para cada lugar e utilizar o exterior como escenario. Poderemos ver como cambiou a Estrada coas nosas guías cómicas". 📢A ESCOLA MUNICIPAL DE ARTES ESCÉNICAS da Estrada, naceu no ano 2012, a partir do que era a antiga Escola Municipal de Teatro. É unha institución dependente da Fundación Cultural da Estrada que dende a súa creación no ano 2002, formou parte dun marco estratéxico de promoción e difusión das artes escénicas na vila. O antecedente da Escola foi a creación no ano 1996 da compañía de teatro afeccionado TEATRO dos TIRINAUTAS, que durante os seus 10 anos de vida, axudou a dar unha alternativa de ocio a moita xente da localidade, e a divulgar a obra de escritores da comarca coma Varela Buxán, Neira Vilas ou Manuel García Barros. Na memoria colectiva aínda pervive aquela “Ensalada de Mosquito” do ano 2003 con 12 funcións consecutivas a teatro cheo e máis de 4.500 espectadores; unha peza que facilitou a entrada na Rede de Teatro Profesional do IGAEM desta nova compañía de actores estradenses. Docentes e profesionais do teatro da talla de Anabell Gago, Xosé Lueiro, Artur Trillo, Nuria Montero, Nuria Sanz, Manuel Lourenzo, Mónica de Nut, Arturo Cobas “Nono”, Fiona Bernárdez, Cándido Pazó ou Cristina Domínguez viñeron colaborando no proxecto docente da institución dando alento escénico a pezas de Molière, Cervantes, Carlos Casares, Vidal Bolaño, Lorca, Labiche, Sergi Belbel, Anton Chèjov ou Bertolt Brecht entre outros. No ano 2012, e dado o carácter multidisciplinar do teatro contemporáneo, a Escola Municipal de Teatro, decidiu diversificar a súa oferta didáctica para ofrecerlle ao alumnado unha formación o máis integral posible, incluíndo na súa programación, clases de danza, de voz e de clown. Esta última disciplina é un vestixio do que foi a antiga Escola de Circo, que este ano 2012 decidiu fundirse coa Escola de Teatro e reimpulsar un novo proxecto docente. Paralelamente á actividade docente, a Escola ten asignada unha unidade de produción propia coa finalidade de medir ás novas remesas de actores diante do público, e tamén organizou durante os anos 2009, 2010 e 2011 un certame de teatro afeccionado, no que os alumnos da escola puideron interaccionar con outras compañías galegas. 👉Máis Información ESCOLA MUNICIPAL de ARTES ESCÉNICAS: ✔️Páxina Web: http://www.emae.aestrada.gal/ 👉Máis Información PAULA QUINTAS: ✔️Páxina Web: https://www.paulaquintas.com/ ✔️Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/pau.quintassantos ✔️Twitter: https://twitter.com/qpausantos ✔️Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pauquintass/ ✔️Vimeo: https://vimeo.com/user10312639 ✔️YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCm4eAixxHV9NVTGnEgN-8KA ✔️Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.es/pauquintassanto/_saved/ 👉Máis Información ANABELL GAGO: ✔️Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100009441100007 ✔️Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/anabellgago/ 🎙️ "SUSCRÍBETE" ao podcast👍 👉Máis Información e outras entrevistas: ✔️Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PabloChichas ✔️Twitter: https://twitter.com/pablochichas ✔️Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pablochichas/ ✔️Clubhouse: @pablochichas ✔️Twich: https://www.twitch.tv/pablochichas
Despois de anos de demandas veciñais, Ferrol Vello conta por fin cun caixeiro automático. O dispositivo comezou a instalarse onte na rúa San Francisco, preto do estanco, e foi recibido con grande entusiasmo polos residentes e pola Asociación de Veciños, que levaban décadas reclamándoo. A presidenta da AVV, María Xosé Peniza, amosou a súa sorpresa e ledicia ante a chegada inesperada deste servizo, do que aínda se descoñece quen foi o responsable da súa xestión. O barrio, con máis de 25 establecementos hostaleiros, actividade turística e portuaria, carecía ata agora dun punto para retirar efectivo desde a retirada do antigo caixeiro na Capitanía. Ademais, este sábado os veciños organizan un mercadiño de segunda man, antigüidades e artesanía na Praza Vella, unha iniciativa que busca dinamizar a vida do barrio e atraer visitantes, coincidindo coa chegada deste novo servizo tan esperado.
At the core of Santiago de Compostela, Praza das Praterías (Plaza de las Platerías) pulses with the sounds that embody its spiritual and cultural spirit. The resonant toll of bells from the nearby cathedral forms a solemn call, echoing across the plaza as pilgrims gather, their conversations blending into the hum of the crowd. Galician bagpipes provide a distinct, melodic layer to the atmosphere, their notes weaving through the lively surroundings and grounding the scene in regional tradition. The recording reflects the steady tread of pilgrims, their steps echoing the weight of their long journey, each footfall infused with respect and expectation. This unique blend of sounds conveys the profound significance of this space: a meeting point of faith, history, and human connection. Listening to it, you can sense the rhythm of a place where centuries of devotion and celebration continue to resonate.

"The field recording I chose was rich with historical resonance, immediately reminding me of another sacred route in Japan—Kumano Kodo, an ancient pilgrimage trail deeply connected to spiritual tradition. This parallel between Camino de Santiago in Spain and Kumano Kodo in Japan felt natural, as both sites are UNESCO-designated partners in preserving cultural and historical heritage. "Fortunately, I had my own field recordings from Kumano and Koyasan temple, and as I listened, I was struck by how seamlessly the Buddhist chant and the Spanish gaida (bagpipe) intertwined. Their tonal qualities resonated in a way that evoked a shared sense of devotion, despite being from different corners of the world. "Rather than stopping at this musical dialogue, I wanted to create something immersive — an experience akin to walking along these sacred paths. To achieve this, I incorporated poetry from ancient Japan, reciting verses that reflect themes of journey, reflection, and spiritual connection. By layering these elements, I hoped to offer listeners — whether tourists, pilgrims, or those engaging from afar—a way to connect with the past and feel the enduring spirit of these landscapes. "The final composition unfolds as a call-and-response between the two pilgrimage routes, distant in geography but united in essence. It invites the listener to trace the footsteps of those who came before, to remember, to feel, and to sense the unchanged atmosphere of these sacred spaces—a rare and precious experience in our fast-moving world."

Ferrol conmemora o 53º aniversario dos sucesos do 10 de marzo de 1972 Ferrol lembra hoxe, 10 de marzo, un día clave na súa historia, conmemorando o 53º aniversario da traxedia que marcou a cidade en 1972. Nese fatídico día, Amador Rey e Daniel Niebla perderon a vida durante unha manifestación obreira que demandaba un convenio laboral xusto e o fin da ditadura franquista. A violencia policial que tivo lugar nos Asteleiros de Bazán quedou gravada na memoria colectiva da cidade e segue a resonar na loita dos traballadores e traballadoras de Ferrol. Amador Rey, casado e pai de catro fillos, foi alcanzado por un disparo que lle causou a morte antes de chegar ao hospital San Javier, na Praza de España. Daniel Niebla, tamén traballador dos astaleiros, compartía as mesmas reivindicacións e tamén foi vítima da brutalidade policial. A súa morte non só significou a perda de dous homes, senón o recordo dun Ferrol que sufría baixo a opresión dunha ditadura implacable. Na xornada de hoxe, o acto de lembranza comezou ás 12:00 horas cunha manifestación protagonizada polos traballadores de Navantia, que percorreu as rúas ata o Monolito do 10 de marzo, no barrio de Recimil. A continuación, tivo lugar unha ofrenda floral ás 12:30, seguida dun acto institucional no Concello de Ferrol. Á tarde, un novo percorrido manifestante convocado polo sindicato Ziga percorreu a cidade, complementado por actividades no Ateneo. Este día é tamén unha oportunidade para reflexionar sobre o legado daqueles sucesos e a situación laboral actual. Alfonso Tellado, histórico sindicalista que viviu aqueles momentos, compartiu a súa visión sobre o que significou aquel 10 de marzo e o impacto no sindicalismo de Ferrol e Galicia. "Para min, este día é agridulce", comentou Tellado. "Hoxe en día, vemos que, aínda que a loita contra a ditadura foi fundamental, tamén foi unha loita polo modelo de negociación colectiva, que naquel momento estaba en marcha e que marcou un cambio importante na historia do movemento obreiro", engadiu. O sindicalista tamén subliñou que a loita daquela época non só se centraba na liberdade política, senón tamén na mellora das condicións laborais dos traballadores, un aspecto que aínda segue sendo clave na loita actual. "A negociación colectiva que se desenvolveu aqueles anos, con tanto esforzo, foi fundamental para conquistar dereitos que hoxe son parte da nosa realidade", explicou. Ao longo da conversa, Tellado tamén reflexionou sobre os cambios nas ferramentas de mobilización e no sindicalismo. "As novas ferramentas, como as redes sociais, poden ser útiles, pero non substitúen a formación e o traballo directo nos lugares de traballo", afirmou. "A loita sindical debe seguir sendo un elemento de presión nas mesas de negociación, pero tamén un espazo para organizarse desde dentro das empresas". Neste sentido, Alfonso Tellado lamentou o retroceso na formación sindical e a falta de unidade de acción que caracteriza a situación actual. "Os sindicatos, hoxe en día, parecen máis preocupados por manter a súa estructura interna que por loitar realmente polos dereitos dos traballadores", asegurou. A pesar desas críticas, Tellado recoñeceu que a memoria histórica segue sendo un valor importante na loita obreira. "A xente de Ferrol aínda lembra e honra aos mártires do 10 de marzo, pero tamén hai que aprender das leccións do pasado. Non podemos permitir que se repitan os mesmos erros", advertiu. Este 53º aniversario do 10 de marzo de 1972 é un recordatorio da resistencia e da loita pola xustiza social. Mentres as rúas de Ferrol se enchen unha vez máis de manifestantes e memoria, queda claro que o legado daqueles traballadores, que sacrificaron as súas vidas por un futuro mellor, segue vivo. Como ben dixo Tellado, "a loita continúa, e a memoria de Amador e Daniel sempre será a forza que nos impulsa a seguir loitando por un mundo máis xusto".

Chegamos ao noso último programa con convidado, xa que esta temporada remataremos dun xeito distinto. E, como xa sabedes, tamén ao final do podcast. Lembrade que celebraremos un derradeiro Café Derby 21 o xoves 27 de xuño, ás 19:30 horas no Riquela Club, en Santiago de Compostela.

Son moitas as persoas que pedían este momento e por fin podemos confirmar que se fixo real: Fillas de Cassandra no Café Derby 21! Atopámonos co dúo galego logo do seu masivo concerto en Santiago de Compostela ante miles de persoas. Aínda con folgos, tiveron todo o ánimo para falar sobre
Chegou o momento de falar dun dos temas máis agardados: ❤️O AMOR❤️. Grazas á publicación de certa carta de certo mandatario na que recoñecía estar fondamente namorado da súa muller, decidimos actuar e montar un comité de urxencia para abordar o tema de namorarse e demais. Por iso quixemos conversar con Grande Amore, amigo histórico do Café Derby 21, nun programa gravado en directo no Parador de Vilalba como parte da programación do FIV. A partir da carta á cidadanía de Pedro Sánchez, a declaración de Bárbara Rey a Chelo García-Cortés en 'Sálvame' e o mítico audio de Laura Escanes (supostamente) acabando cunha relación, con todo isto, damos forma a un programa sobre o amor, bicarse, declararse, infidelidades e moito máis. · Podes atoparnos en Vinte na Praza, no noso perfil de Twitter @cafederby21 e en Instagram ✌️ · Co apoio inestimable de Deleite

Logo de varias semanas de incógnitas, nos últimos días moitos misterios foron desveleados, algúns positivos e outros non tanto. Para achegarnos á máxima actualidade no campo da investigación e resolución de incógnitas, neste programa contamos coa escritora e dama da novela negra, Arantza Portabales. Xunto a ela repasamos cuestións tan variadas como a paixón polo misterio, os nosos asasinos e detectives favoritos, os elementos para unha boa novela negra, misterios actuais como o de Kate Middleton e esa crise de comunicación, ou as motivacións para matar, desde o persoal ata o profesional. · Podes atoparnos en Vinte na Praza, no noso perfil de Twitter @cafederby21 e en Instagram ✌️ · Co apoio inestimable de Deleite

ÚLTIMA HORA: Galicia vai a eleccións o #18F. Aínda non sabías nada disto? Quizais eras a última persoa do país. En calquera caso, un evento tan relevante para o futuro e a cultura tiña que ter o seu oco no Café Derby 21, pero desde o noso propio terreo. Por iso, contamos co xornalista, comunicador político e director de Ou Ké!, Iván Iglesias para parolar sobre
Aínda que somos persoas que apostan por dialogar e falar de calquera tema con calquera convidado, ás veces é preciso contar con expertos na materia que senten cátedra e falen con coñecemento pleno. Por iso, para animar o comezo do ano, dedicamos o programa ao

No primeiro episodio de 2024 queremos recoller as emocións e vivencias das últimas semanas de tolemia festiva. Achegámonos ata un dos nosos lugares de calma, o Café Universal, na Coruña, para parolar sobre algo esencial e moi presente nestes días:
Pechamos este ano 2023 cun episodio moi especial para nós porque é a celebración dun aniversario único na cultura galega. Achegámonos ata Santiago de Compostela para parolar con Dios Ke Te Crew, en concreto con Sokram porque se nos xuntamos todos poderíamos xogar ao fútbol sala, banda fundamental na escena do rap en Galicia e en galego. Logo dunha carreira de 20 anos celebrada nun doble concerto-homenaxe-evento nas salas Capitol e Malatesta, puxemos calma para afondar no tema do programa:
Neste aínda 2023 non podía faltar un programa* cunha das revelacións da temporada e un talento único, froito do encontro entre Galicia e Euskal Herria. Atopámonos coa cineasta Jaione Camborda en Santiago de Compostela, no clásico Pub Momo da capital galega, e, antes que nada, brindamos pola súa Concha de Oro no Festival de San Sebastián grazas a O Corno, un dos filmes da temporada e dentro do noso top do ano. Ela xa é profeta na súa terra, en todas elas. Xunto a Jaione Camborda falamos neste programa sobre
Programa especial adicado ó mundo do mar, da man do noso colaborador e amigo Javier Botana, o Capitán Agallas. Aproveitando a sua visita a Galicia para percorrer as lonxa das rias baixas e as rias altas, damos un paseo pola maravillosa Praza de Abastos de Compostela
OLA!!!!! Boas, como andamos? Café Derby 21 volve para unha 4ª temporada, era inevitable. Logo dunhas vacacións merecidas e semanas invisibles de traballo, rachamos o noso silencio para facer o mellor comeback posible: REVISITARNOS A NÓS MESMXS. Por iso, no primeiro programa desta nova temporada falamos de ⌛ PASAR O TEMPO ⌛ coa nosa madriña, a nosa benquerida Berta Dávila. Ademais de parolar sobre literatura, tamén contamos as anécdotas detrás dos nosos comezos, sobre vivir no presente, ollar ao pasado, arriscar o futuro, máquinas do tempo, exparellas e segundas oportunidades. Xa estamos aquí!
Achegámonos de novo ata Santiago de Compostela, aínda que só dúas partes das tres que compoñen o Café Derby 21 chegaron ata a estación de tren. Quen falta e por que? No programa resólvese o misterio. Quen non faltou foi o noso convidado, alguén a quen tiñamos moita gana de escoitar e que parolase con nós: MONDRA. Un dos fenómenos musicais deste ano, sen dúbida. Por iso, aproveitamos para falar sobre
Sección Intersección (02:19) Café Derby 21 con David Fidaldo (14:45) Para este programa tivemos o pracer de formar parte do festival Intersección, o festival de cine internacional da Coruña. Nesta ocasión, o noso convidado é o cineasta, animador e artista visual David Fidalgo, que está tendo unha feliz temporada de festivais e premios con 'Sandwich Cat'. Fidalgo é un dos iconos actuais en Galicia sobre o humor absurdo e existencial que toca nos límites coas bágoas, por iso foi o momento perfecto para falar sobre
A pasada semana celebrouse no Parlamento de Galicia o debate do estado da autonomía no que se trataron os temas, os problemas e as propostas transversais para toda a sociedade galega. O seu interese radica en que foi o primeiro DEA de Alfonso Rueda como presidente da Xunta, pero tamén o último antes de que as galegas vaiamos ás urnas, un escaparate no que os partidos se posicionan cara a cita electoral. Para analizar e contextualizar todo o que deron de si estas xornadas, temos na autocaravana a dúas persoas que o seguiron moi de preto: David Reinero, de Praza.gal, e Beatriz Muñoz, de elDiario.es. Asemade, o noso politólogo Yannick Juncal encargarase do apartado divulgativo para explicar polo miúdo este acontecemento parlamentario. Ven percorrer o Hórreo na nosa autocaravana!
(1:51) Últimos días para inscribirse no concurso de monólogos científicos "Ciencia Calidade" (7:56) Unha vez ao ano en vez de perseguir nós aos científicos, son eles os que veñen aos nosos estudos para ver como se fai a radio. Contamos con Leticia Tobalina Pulido, Adriana Barros, Yeray Folgar, Luz Castro e Cinthia Piñeiro. (43:32) María José Mariño preséntanos as actividades de cine familiar e campamento do proxecto D´Tec do GAIN (48:21) Achegámonos á Praza da Ciencia das Festas do Barrio de San Pedro en Santiago
Para acurtar a espera ata que volvamos de vacacións de verán, lanzamos este programa especial feito en directo desde o FICBUEU cos cineastas Lucía Estévez e Miguel Canalejo, participantes na sección GZ_00 coas súas curtas O Neno Sardiña e O Coidado. En compañía, falamos sobre unha cuestión que atravesaba todos os traballos seleccionados como representantes do talento galego:
O municipio das Pontes prepárase para celebrar, esta próxima fin de semana, a VIII edición de “Cita coa Historia”, un evento organizado polo Concello, en colaboración coa asociación veciñal Lembranza da Vila. Durante os días 15, 16 e 17 da setembro as rúas do casco histórico das Pontes retrocederán no tempo para acoller distintas actividades coas que se busca afondar nos xeitos de vida na localidade durante período galaico romano. En palabras da concelleira de Cultura, Lorena Tenreiro, “Nesta oitava edición volvemos a apostar pola divulgación do noso patrimonio histórico e cultural, a través de diferentes propostas que inclúen obradoiros de recreación histórica, xogos, demostracións de artesanía así como espectáculos musicais e de cetrería para, dun xeito lúdico e didáctico, achegar á poboación pontesa ás orixes do noso municipio” As actividades arrancarán, o venres, 14 de setembro, ás 17:00 horas coa apertura do mercado e a rúa dos oficios para dar paso a un obradoiro guiado sobre forxa antiga e traballo do metal e á visita guiada ao Museo Etnográfico Monte Caxado. Tras o pregón, que terá lugar ás 20:30 horas, na Praza da Igrexa e que correrá a cargo do veciño José Miguel Varela Lamigueiro, haberá un pasacalle a cargo do grupo local de música tradicional Os Feroces da Galgueira. As actividades continuan o sabado e o domingo
Os tempos son chegados e como avisamos semanas atrás, a terceira temporada do Café Derby 21 chega ao seu fin. Como non podía ser doutro xeito epara estar á altura dun ano tan tolo como 2023, deixamos un programa histórico para a memoria e como peche perfecto a tantas semanas mantendo o nivel. Por iso, desprazámonos ata o Parlamento de Galicia para falar dos ✅FINAIS✅ con... Ana Pontón! Aproveitando o final da campaña electoral para as municipais e o fin da nosa terceira temporada, falamos con Ana Pontón sobre como facer para relaxarnos logo do estrés acumulado, como é a sensación de rematar un proxecto importante para unha mesma ou sobre o fin do anonimato e ser unha persoa pública, Tamén botamos a vista atrás para lembrarnos dos finais de curso escolar, dos bailes de fin de curso, da chegada do verán e de como iso cambia cando eres universitario, que o fin de curso pode ser en setembro ou xullo polas recuperacións. E para rematar, parolamos e fantaseamos con Ana Pontón sobre como sería o noso último día na Terra no caso de chegar a fin do mundo, ou sobre como rematar ben un día que foi perfecto. Ademais, recollemos algún momentos chamados Fin de la cita, en homenaxe a Mariano Rajoy e o seu gazapo icónico e algúns finais de películas que nos deixaron do revés. En resumo, este é o fin da terceira temporada do Café Derby 21, desde o Parlamento de Galicia. Quen contaba? Unha aperta e grazas por estas semanas de cariño e apoio
Esta semana estreamos o penúltimo programa da tempada e achegámonos ata Santiago de Compostela, con vistas á Cidade da Cultura desde a terraza do Balcón das Brañas. Rompemos o noso día a día para falar, precisamente, sobre

Welcome to the thriving Throid podcast. Welcome back you guys to the thriving Throid podcast. We have hope Praza on with us today, and I'm super excited to be talking to you guys about health, fitness, Pilates and how that it played is a role in thyroid as well. So welcome hope. (02:06): Yeah. Thank you. Thanks so much for having me. (02:08): Yeah. So for the listeners, give us a little bit of a background as to who you are, what you do, what you specialize in, all of that. (02:18): Yeah. So I am the owner of a brick and mortar plotty space, fitness studio. And so our studios are built on Pate's principles. We have six signature classes all based on Pate's principles. So they're all focused on mobility, flexibility balance in the core. It's like, you know, at the core of it is the core and that's kind of what our classes are based on. And in addition to that, I'm also a holistic nutritionist and a function diagnostic nutrition practitioner. And so I've kind of blended the two together while also having kinda two separate businesses with my nutrition business running online, and then my brick and mortar UMWA studio. (02:56): Yeah. Super fun. And how did you, so you started with Pilates and then moved into Nu nutrition. (03:03): I did. Yeah. Yeah. So my background is in dance and that's really what got me into Pilates. I danced for 20 however many years of my life. And so that kind of led me into Pilates, which led me down the path for the brick and mortar. (03:15): Super fun. So did you start doing Pilates like in college or? (03:20): Yeah. So it's funny. I was just thinking about this the other day too. I, I actually started doing floods when I was, I guess I was probably in high school. I would go to the gym with my mom and she would go to like, you know, they had the old school step aerobics classes, you know, and so we would do step aerobics and then like once a week they'd have floods and so I'd go with her, but then our really got into it when I was in college. And I just, I was teaching group fitness and then I just decided like Pilates, it just, it just kind of naturally learned that way, that what somebody recommended it like, oh, you should get certified. And so I just kinda started my path in Pilates as well. It just matched so well with my dance background and I just, I loved doing it. It I'm like, oh, I don't wanna teach it. So yeah. (04:02): Yeah. I love that. So I danced too. Awesome. Yeah, I did. So at my school we were very highly competitive in the dance field. Yeah. And so I made varsity team my freshman year Uhhuh, and that was like the first year, any varsity or any freshman had made yeah. (04:21): Made varsity, (04:22): Made varsity in like that's so cool. 10 years or something ridiculous. And so I love that and I, I, you know, I, a fan of Pilates and a fan of yoga and all of those things, they just kind of mm-hmm go together. (04:36): They do? They do. (04:38): And I, okay. So I took yoga my first like yoga classes were my freshman year in high school and my teacher was so weird and I was like, I, this (04:49): Is not, yeah. (04:51): I hate yoga if this is what yoga is. I hate it. (04:55): Not for me. (04:57): Yes. (04:57): Could totally have that experience though. And I mean, I honestly it's the same with Pilates too, and I think it's important too, for, you know, anyone listening, who isn't familiar with Pilates, like there are multiple schools of teaching with Pilates, you know, there's more classical based, more contemporary. Our studios are more contemporary based, so it's more functional movement. It's more like natural progressions and like a better, more functional flow to like the class and stuff, which is what I loved about it. Contemporary style. Cause it, it lit more just to like dance, how it all flows together and it all move, you know, mm-hmm so there is, and you'll always find, you know, there's teachers that you like in teachers that, you know, don't, aren't a good fit for you and it's the same with Pilates too. So you definitely have to find what fits best for you and what feels best for you and what you job with, you know? (05:41): Yeah. I, and I love that point because I feel like a lot of times with exercise and movement, people will try out, like you said, a certain class and they're like, oh, this isn't for me. Mm-Hmm . But I have a really good friend of mine who had her entire colon removed. Oh, wow. And she's been doing Pilates to help with her core muscles because obviously that's really important . Mm. And that's Pilates has been extremely beneficial and I love that. It's so gentle on the body. (06:14): Totally. Yeah. And that's really at think that's kind of the premise of my studio. Cause we do have some like higher intensity classes and stuff, but the whole, our premise really is like, this is for longevity. Like you can still do high intensity classes and it still be gentle on your body. Like, it doesn't mean you have to be, you know, pounding your joints or throwing, you know, 500 pounds over your head and stuff. Like you can still be gentle to your body and do a higher intensity class and high intensity. Really. It means so many things to different people. Like what's high intensity for me is not the same thing as someone who might be, you know, 70 years old or somebody who's, you know, a marathon runner who needs a little bit more to get their heart rate at, you know? So it's, it means different things to different people. And I think that's the great thing about pate and how we structured our classes. They're all multi-level classes. We don't level out level one, level two, you know, whatever. And so it provides a space for everyone to be included. It's, you know, it's inclusive and it, it gives a chance for someone who's maybe more, every beginner to have something to kinda strive for. And then there's always a way to make it more challenging, but it's, it's, it's safe for everybody. And yeah. (07:23): Yeah. So what would you say are the big benefits of doing Pilates? (07:29): Yeah, so obviously, like I mentioned before, the biggest benefit is gonna be the core and that's really the focus of Pilates. And it's important to understand that the core is not just your abs, right? Your course, everything from your shoulders to your hips. So it's that whole like trunk part of your body. And that's what the focus is. And we're not only focusing on like working, working, and strengthening the core, but also you know, using that to stabilize the rest of the body. So it's all about like moving one part of the body while stabilizing another parts are working those little tiny, stable laser muscles. You're working the core, you're working the spine, you're building all of those little tiny muscles comprehensively throughout the class. (08:10): I love that. And I, I, and you can correct me if I'm wrong, but a lot of the core muscles lend into like a gut health. Right. And the mobility that we see in your, just your GI track with the stomach and the intestines and things like that. So do you find that once people get started with you, that those things are shifting as well? (08:34): Yeah. I mean, that's a huge thing. It's funny. We just had a, do we also do teacher trainings at my studio, but we had one weeks ago when we were talking about that. Just how I, I think people underestimate the power of proper posture and how, when you don't have proper posture, I mean, it affects everything. It literally affects how your organs are configured in your body. Like it really does affect things. So yeah, totally. I mean, it can really it sounds so like, you know, melodramatic and we're talking about, you know, you hear cause it it's, I think it gets, we hear all the time, oh, this transforms your body. This says that really. And truly, there's so many transformative aspects of potties because it really can help with things like, you know, digestion and proper functioning of your organs and proper breathing. And you just, people don't think about that. We're thinking about posture that it's so much more than just where your bone, which are also, which is also important, but it's more than just where your bones are situated. There's so much more to it than that. So, yeah, for sure. (09:32): Yeah. And what are the, like, since I know you do a lot of teaching and stuff, what are some of those like misconceptions about Pilates? Because I'm sure they're out there, but (09:44): oh yeah, no for sure. And we get 'em all the time. And I think one of the things that I kind of mentioned before, and it's important to mention is that there are different schools of teaching was I've had people walk into my studio and, you know, be talking to them about is, and they're like, oh, well I don't, I don't like Buddie I tried it one time. I didn't like it. And you can't judge it by the one time, because you might have had a teacher. You didn't like, you might have been in a more classical class and maybe you're, you're better at doing hi contemporary. Maybe you you're better at doing class. You know, you have to kind of find what style suits you. So think, first of all, it's not all pate is equal and that all the classes are the same. (10:16): And two, I think the other biggest one we see is that Pilates and yoga are the same thing and it's not at all. so, you know, whereas yoga is more of, you know, holding positions for longer. And it's more about the flexibility and yes, there are plenty of yoga classes that build on strength and the focus is not the same. The breathing is not same where in Pilates, we're focused more on di formatic breathing and breathing from the diaphragm and, and like holding on the muscle contraction while you're breathing. Yoga's more about the belly breath, right? So it's, it's a totally different focus and it's definitely not the same goal, both great forms of movement and exercise, but not the same thing. (10:57): Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Well, and I, I love that because I just recorded an episode for the podcast with a guy talking about breath work. And I mean, obviously I think most of us are at least somewhat familiar with that. Mm-Hmm but he was talking about the difference of belly breathing, big breath, you know, breathing down into your stomach. And I was like, some of this stuff I have never heard of (11:26): yeah, yeah. (11:27): Before (11:28): It's true. Yeah. And we practice that when we're doing our teacher chatting, especially. And honestly, it, it sounds silly to say, but really people Mo a lot of people I'd say the, of people, at least that, you know, come through our doors really don't know how to breathe properly. And it sounds silly to say it, but it's true. And not only that, but people also aren't familiar with how to use their abs while they're breathing. Like that's like a novel concept to so many people come in. Like, I don't know how to use my AB and breathe at the same time. Like, don't you have to let go of your AB you know, it's so it totally is a whole different way of like thinking and which is why it's, you know, it's called a mind body exercise, cuz you really do have to connect the mind and the body for all the parts to work the way they're supposed to. And (12:13): Yeah, which I find really interesting, especially now that I'm pregnant and I'm like, oh my gosh, I can't breathe. you know, I'm like, oh, she's like super high up, you know? So I know my breathing has changed mm-hmm and anyway, he was talking about how women need to breathe different anyways. It's really just a fascinating Concepts. Yeah. I was like, I never knew that like yeah. And he was saying the same thing. We have to learn how to breathe. And I'm like, oh no, add one more thing checklist. (12:51): Yes it's. (12:54): So tell me hope. What do you let's kind of shift into nutrition. What are some of the benefits of eating more? Plant-Based kind of like a plant focused diet. What are your thoughts on that? (13:07): Yeah. So my approach with my clients is I call it plant focus. So you know, I'm, I, I am plant based. It works for me. I know it doesn't work for everybody, but I, I do, I am a firm believer that every, everybody should be eating more plants, whether it's all plants or not, everybody should be eating more plants. And so that's kinda the approach I take with my clients because the fact is that the majority of us don't get enough fiber. We don't get enough vitamins and minerals and we don't get of, you know, the, the benefits of eating a predominantly plant based diet. And for most of the clients I work with, there's some sort of like gut issues going on and which can lead to other things. And actually just did a masterclass talking about thyroid about the thyroid and connecting the gut and the thyroid and sub and really the benefits of eating plants while there's like a bazillion of them I could talk about. (13:57): But for just for, to narrow down a few big ones, first is the fiber, like I mentioned, and for so many things, obviously I think most of us know that fiber helps keep us regular, but really it's so much more than that. Fiber helps you full fiber helps stabilize your blood sugar. Fiber helps the breakdown when it's broken down in your body is broken down into short fatty acids. And this is really what helps create a healthy gut environment. It helps promote healthy bacteria. It provides food for the bacteria that's in your gut. It helps promote healthy stomach and intestinal lining. So there's so many benefits of the that's in the that's in. And then in addition to that, it can also help it can help you keep a healthy weight because it can help excrete excess, fatty acids help excrete, excess cholesterol out of your body. And then, and then the vitamins and minerals, of course implant, you know, you get the antioxidants and all those good things that help you know, lower inflammation and stuff comes from plant food, plant-based food as well. (14:58): Yeah. So when you say plant focused, (15:01): Mm-Hmm (15:02): What does that, what does that mean for you or what, yeah, yeah, (15:06): Yeah. It's really just putting a focus shifting the focus on the plate. So for the majority of my clients, none of them are really coming to me to be vegan. And I get those conversations in the DMS all the time. Like I'm not looking to be vegan. I'm like, well, good, cuz I'm not gonna tell you to be vegan so it's really just shifting the focus to more plants. So it's just maybe making the meat portion on your plate a little bit smaller and filling the rest with plants. So it's just putting more focus on plants. Maybe, maybe it's eating, you know, one solid plant based meal a day making just one meal a day plant based. So it's really just shifting the focus where it's not so much focus on the meat that's on the plate or the, you know, whatever animal protein or whatever that you're eating, but it's really filling your plate with mostly vegetables, which can still be full of protein and fiber, like, you know, lentils and Lago a other legumes in quinoa. So there are plenty of ways to get what you're looking for in the animal based food. Like which of those people, it's all about protein, right? There's plenty ways to get it, but it's just kinda shifting the focus. So it's more plants on your plate than it is animal products. (16:05): Yeah. And, and I find, I love this because that's kind of how I grew up and then life happened and I got married and I was introduced to like other ways of eating mm-hmm right. But my, my parents were both very health conscious. My parent, I remember for a period of time they were vegan. they were watching their cholesterol. They were watching sodium. My parents were just very mindful and that we would sit down and like three fourths of our plate would be plant based mm-hmm and then we would have, you know, some kind of like maybe meat or a caserole cuz we kind of have a big family, you know, like some of those things. Yeah. But a I I'm finding the more that I work with women, not everybody is brought up that way. Mm-Hmm yeah. So for you, how, like how were you brought up? What were your beliefs around food prior to plant-based or plant focused? (17:10): Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So my mom was very high health conscious too. We didn't, I didn't grow up plant based or anything. We did eat meat growing up and stuff, but my mom was, my parents both were pretty health conscious. Like they were the more health conscious in the, in the sense that they were like tried all the fad diets, you know, like I remember they had the sugar bus for book and they had the you know, Mediterranean whatever, but, you know, so they kind of tried the things like, so they were health conscious mm-hmm you know, my mom wasn't, you know, never bought a sugary cereals, that kinda thing that I grew. And I grew up with a ton of digestive issues and, and it wasn't for meeting a lot of junk food cause we didn't, we didn't have that at my house. (17:49): Sure. And so, you know, I had multiple doctor's appointments, a lot of tests. I, I had probably four colonies before I was like 17 years old, just trying to figure out what was going on. So and then really that's kinda what led me down this path to be interested in nutrition really, because I just wanted to figure out what was wrong with myself cuz is really at the end of the day, the doctor was just like, oh, it's IBS. Which is like, basically they're like, I don't know. You're yeah. so, and, and they didn't, you know, they don't give you anything to do or try or it's like, okay, that's it. So I'm like, okay, well that's great. So as I kinda got older out of high school, I kinda started reading books. And then right out I read a couple books on eating plant based. And I was like, okay, I'm (18:37): Gonna try it out. What do I have to (18:39): Lose? Exactly. So I literally did it overnight. I just was like, okay, tomorrow I'm gonna be vegan. And, and I did. And, and, and my felt, I mean, it was probably a few weeks into it. I was like, I could tell, I felt a difference. And so it worked for me. And so that's, that was my kind of journey to get there was that it worked for me. I felt better. My skin was clearing up. My allergies got better. Like all these things started kind of a fixing themselves and I'm like, okay, well it works for me. So there's (19:06): Something here. Mm-Hmm yeah. Oh, I love that. And now I feel like my journey is a little similar. I didn't have a lot of digestive issues that I knew about. I felt like I was pretty regular and things like that, but my parents did. , mm-hmm this is so embarrassing, but well, not for me, I guess, but like my dad, he would fart, he would pass gas and it smelled so bad. It would clear the room. Right. (19:41): (19:42): Like, get outta there. And it, like you said, we were eating pretty healthy. My, my dad hunted, we ate, you know like game, you know, deer bear, you know, things like that. So it wasn't like we were on this terrible diet right. You know, we still eat ice cream and had cake and you know, things like that. But I didn't like you, I didn't grow up with a lot of sugary cereal. Like you probably the most sugary cereal I had was Cheerios. Yeah. (20:16): That too was cheer (20:18): Cheerios or rice crisp treats like Uhhuh, you know, we didn't grow up on cinnamon toast crunch. And if we did ever get lucky charms or something, it was like gone in a day. Yes because was so rare. So (20:34): Yes. Yes. (20:36): And, and I, I, I really appreciate finding people who grew up kind of similar to me where parents were health conscious, they were working out, they were, you know, watching what they ate mm-hmm they were taking care of their body and yet we're still experiencing health issues. (20:55): Yep, totally, totally. (20:56): And that, I think that this is such a great topic in the sense of you can be doing air quotes here, all the right things. Mm-Hmm , you can exercising, you can be sleeping, you can be eating, you know, watching your sugar and things like that. And still have something a little bit off. But when you shift your diet, like what you were talking about, there can be healing mm-hmm right. Mm-Hmm that can take place and the importance of fiber and just all of, all of these things I think gets beautiful. (21:27): yep. Absolutely. (21:29): To realize. So how is this related to the health of our thyroid? (21:37): Yeah. Good question. So you know, as you know, and as I'm sure most of your listers know, there's a lot of things that can contribute to thyroid issues, right? Like it could be a million different things. And actually the master class, I did a couple months ago last month, last month we kind of dove into a little bit of like all these possible things could be it. So basically it's like, it can be anything , you know, so for me connecting it to healthy gut, cuz that's really kind of, my focus is a healthy gut. It's balancing out, it's keeping a health first, it's keeping a healthy balance of gut bacteria, right? So it's, mm-hmm, it's preventing any dysbiosis, which can cause things to go wrong with all parts of the body, including your thought, right. Making sure the good and the bad bacteria are in balance, making sure that you do have a healthy gut with, with that balance of good, bad bacteria to keep out any potential like parasites or pathogens that can come in, which can also cause things like thyroid issues and it, and, and it's also about keeping, you know, a healthy endocrine system and keeping the adrenals working properly. (22:38): So all of those other organ systems that all work together with a thyroid, it's it all for me and in my world, it really all starts with a healthy gut. And so and so that's what I have, you know, my clients are working on just building this healthy gut biome microbiome that helps keep all of these other organ systems working in check. And then also it's also about, you know, limiting as much inflammation as possible inflammation is what causes a lot OFID issues as well. And so, you know, eating fruit foods that are high vitamins and minerals and antioxidants to, to find that those good anti-inflammatory foods to help limit any inflammation. And at the same time, it's not just about what you eat. It's about, you know, managing stress and sleep and getting proper exercise. It's all of those things that work together really to help promote this healthy environment in our body to prevent or to, to keep all our organ systems working in the right way. (23:37): Yeah. So you talked about the importance of a healthy gut microbiome. And I, this is one of the questions that I get asked a lot is, well, I take a probiotic, so shouldn't everything be okay. Right. What do you, what are your thoughts on that? And maybe where can, where can people get started if they're yeah. Struggling with the get (24:02): Yeah, no, it's a good question. I get that question all the time. I'm too. My mom actually just told me to say that, well, I'll take my probiotic. I'm like, OK, well , I mean, and it's kinda one of those things where, you know, you've probably heard the phrase like you can't you can't work off a bad diet, you know, like working out all the time, isn't gonna fix anything. If you're eating like crap all the time, it's kinda the same thing with your probiotic. Like yes, a probiotic is definitely beneficial, but you are dealing with like chronic dysbiosis where you have so much bag bacteria, that's outweighing the good, it's really not gonna do much good. And if you're not seeding the good bacteria that's in your gut, then it's really not gonna do any good. So really what, what you're looking at is you wanna have a good probiotic and a good prebiotic, whether that, whether that's in supplementation or whether it's from food, but we're looking at like Mo plant-based foods. (24:48): And there's a lot of, you know, specific ones you can look at, but really most plant-based foods are gonna be good food for your healthy bacteria. And that's, what's feeding the probiotics that you're taking. So if we're not helping those healthy get bacteria to flourish by feeding them, then the it's not doing any good. And then at the same time, if there's any sort of you know, pathogen or parasite, that's gonna throw off things too. And it's really gonna like basically cancel out, you know, a lot of the good bacteria that's supposed to be doing its job. And then another thing that can happen is, you know, if there's any sort of intestinal permeability, like leaky gut going on, then that's also gonna cause cuz that's just causing inflammation to go hay wire in your body and that's gonna mess up all the, the bacteria in your gut too. So the probiotic's not really gonna do much good. If you've got like this mucosal lining in your intestines, in your stomach, that's just like leaking out stuff all over the place. (25:44): Yeah. This is, I like this topic and I obviously at the time of recording, I'm still pregnant and one of the things. So I'm ending like my, my gestation period. I'm 10 days for my due date. Oh my gosh. I know. Just try to like squeeze it all in. Yes but one of the things I'm thinking about, and this might be TMI, I think a majority of our listeners are female and they've had kids. They get it. Yeah. They get this, they get it. mm-hmm but that first bowel movement, after having a baby can be scary, traumatizing, totally. You know, all of the things. And so as I've been preparing for pregnancy, I'm like, I am going to increase my fiber intake because whatever is happening in my digestive system, I want it to be easy (26:40): Yes, yes. (26:41): To, to pass (26:42): Absolutely. (26:43): After having the baby mm-hmm right. Being more natural minded, obviously I, if you need a stool softener. Okay. Fine. But like I would prefer to go more natural route. So fiber increasing that fiber and then also for me, making sure I have magnesium in my system to just keep things calm, (27:03): Keep moving. That's right. That's (27:04): Right. Yes. And so I, I just, I appreciate this conversation because gut health and what you're getting at is keeping things moving so that we don't have this buildup of pathogens and gut dysbiosis and leaky gut and things like that. And I find, especially with, we see a lot of constipation. Yep. (27:25): For sure. (27:26): So then things are just sitting there mm-hmm and we feel heavy and bloated and gassy and UN uncomfortable mm-hmm and focusing on the fiber and the nutrients that you're eating can make a big difference. Yeah. for someone who let's say is like brand new to eating fruits and veggies, you know, maybe we have some clients who I'm gonna say, are they CA they categorize themselves as picky. Right. I don't like a lot of fruit. I don't like a lot of veggies you know yeah. I for drive through or whatever it is. So for someone just getting started on maybe their journey and trying to increase that fiber content, where would be a good place for them to start. (28:15): Yeah. That's a good question. So when I'm working with clients who are similar to what you're saying, or they're, you're not, not so much used to eating plant-based meals, the easiest way I think to get started eating just more plant-based meals is starting with breakfast, breakfast, I think is the easiest meal of the day to make plant-based right. You you know, change up your regular yogurt for plant-based yogurt. There's some really good cashew and almond based yogurts out there. You you know, eat oatmeal with some hip seeds and, you know, make it a good protein packed fiber meal instead of eating, you know, eggs or sausage or, you know, whatever protein you eat for breakfast. So I think getting started with breakfast is the easiest way. And then, and then from there, it's just figuring out ways that are figuring out some good, like smart substitution. (29:05): So if you you're wanting to replace you know, maybe you have a few favorite dishes and I, I start with my clients do this too, like pick a few favorite dishes that you like to make very easy. And then let's talk about ways that we can make those plant based. So if it's, I'll take something easy, simple, for example, like if you're making like a POS like spaghetti with like a meat sauce okay. To my, when you make that let's use some seasoned lentils instead of the ground beef that you usually use. Right. So just learning ways, just to tweak things here and there. So again, you don't have to eat plant based 100% of the time, but just making those tweaks here and there to incorporate more plants into your meal is gonna change things. Just, you know, it's just a simple way to change those things up. (29:48): Yeah. And I, I have kids mm-hmm so I feel like as a mom, I have to be super creative yes. In how to get veggies into my kids' diet. And so I kinda, I personally play a game with myself. where, like, if I'm you, you brought up spaghetti or whatever, you know, like a pasta sauce. Mm-Hmm I will finally grade like zucchini. Yeah. Posh (30:15): Carrots, (30:16): Carrots. Yep. All of those types of things. And when I'm simmering sauce, I put those in there. So it kind of cooks 'em down a little bit. And then I remember one time I was sitting at the table and we were eating, I think it was like bake Edie or something like that. And I asked my, my kids and my husband to see how many veggies they could find in . That's (30:39): Awesome. And we (30:40): Had that said that that's great. (30:43): Oh my gosh. That's so cool. (30:45): Yeah. And it was, it was just fun. So yeah, I think that's the other thing that we can do with food is try to make it fun for yourself, make it fun for your kids, for sure. And be sneaky. And I find that, like you said, breakfast is a great place to start whether it be smoothies or, you know, a yogurt, like a coconut yogurt or a cashew yogurt, or mm-hmm, something like that. Because also, and maybe you can speak more into this. It's helping to stabilize those blood sugar levels right. For the day. So do you wanna share a little bit about that? (31:23): Yeah. Yeah, for sure. I mean, and that's, I, you know, I was mentioning fiber before and that's really like the beauty of fiber is that it does help stabilize blood sugar. It keeps your insulin levels stable. And and I agree, I think you know, I, I have a lot of clients come to me too that a lot of them either they're not used eating breakfast cuz they're like in a rush in the morning or they go, well, I'm not really hungry in the morning kind of thing, which, which I can appreciate, I could totally get it. But at the same time, I also think it's important too. Like you're saying, like to start the day off with something that's really gonna stabilize your blood sugar the rest of the day and to keep you from like binging at no, because you haven't eaten since six o'clock the night before. So yeah. I think it's a great way to keep your blood sugar stable and to kinda get your day started off where your blood sugar is at like a good level because you've had the fiber and you've had all those things that are helping stabilize it. (32:13): Yeah. Yeah. I find that for my clients who do that throughout the day, there's sugar cravings. Mm-Hmm are less (32:22): For (32:22): Sure. Right. Instead of waking up and I'm sure you experienced this as well, your clients, they wake up, they go straight to the coffee pot yep. Add in all the creamers and the sugars and everything to make it taste good. Yep. And then by, depending on the person by 10 o'clock by noon, they're crashing, (32:42): Crashing. Yep. (32:44): Instead of eating something and I, I don't know again, what your philosophy on coffee is. I tell my clients, if you wanna drink coffee fine, but we need to get a breakfast in you first (32:55): Mm-Hmm (32:55): because most people are, like I said, dumping in extra stuff to make the coffee taste good. (33:04): Yes. Right. (33:05): And then it's, it's causing that midday crash totally. A little bit later. (33:11): Yes. Yep. Agreed. (33:14): All right. Well, hope I have loved this convers. Is there anything you would like to share just in closing about the thyroid or the gut health or Pilates or anything to help people get started? (33:29): Yeah. I think, I mean, I think just like anything else, I think it's just starting small. So I think it's you know, if you're wanting to incorporate more plant-based meals into your day, then take my, and start with breakfast. And maybe you start with a plant-based breakfast a few days a week and you kinda increase from there, but it's really just small, just little small tweaks that really are gonna make a difference in incorporating more plants. And then like you're saying too, to your point, just be more creative with it. And so throwing in veggies and you know, your smoothies and your sauces and your bins, that's, that's what we do at our house too, for my kids, you know, spinach and, you know, put those in the muffins. They have no idea, but just getting creative and making little small tweaks to dishes you already like to making those plant based and not trying to tackle it in which is why I like to use the word plant focus rather than plant based because people don't do well with the restriction right. With really restrictive diets. And so I think plant focus kind of broadens it up a little bit. And so I'm not telling you, you need to go be a hundred percent plant base. It's just opening yourself up to eat to, you know, being more creative and implementing more plants into your food that you're already eating and just you know, doing it just little by little, just little tweaks in there. (34:42): Yeah, absolutely. I agree. 100%. I am one of those that doesn't do well. with restriction (34:51): Of none of us do none of us do. (34:54): If you tell me like, you can never eat this again, I will be like, I'm going to eat that watch (35:00): Watch. Exactly. (35:03): And I think for me, part of it was, I was 100% gluten free and dairy free for over five years. Mm-Hmm . And I finally got to the point where I was like, I just want some bread that actually tastes good. Right. You know? Right. (35:18): Yes. (35:18): And, you know, being able to incorporate that and, and now we do sour, no bread from time to time. But I, I just got to the point where I was like, no, like I'm done with this. This (35:32): Sucks. It sucks. Mm-Hmm (35:34): yes. So thank you. Hope. Where can people find you connect with you on social media and learn more about all the fun things that you do? (35:44): Yeah. So on Instagram, I'm at the hope Praza you can also find my Facebook group. That's really the best way to kind of get started in my world to get lots of cool free stuff. It's live wholesome and on Facebook and yeah, both of those are great channels to get started. (36:03): Amazing. We will make sure to link all of this up for you guys in the show notes.
