We are living in a world where exposure to chemicals and environmental toxins has become almost impossible to avoid. From the food we eat, to the water we drink to the air we breathe and the products we use on our skin, our bodies are navigating more environmental exposures than we may realise. So how do we protect ourselves without becoming overwhelmed? And more importantly, how can we support our body's natural ability to detoxify? In this episode I am joined by Jess Kane Burnham, Founder of Body Bio a family-owned business focusing on cellular health founded in 1998. All their products are based on clinical trials, research and many years in the space. But this episode isn't about living in fear of everything around us or embarking on extreme detox regimes. It's about informing us on how to become more aware, how we can make more informed choices and how to recognise that small, consistent changes can make a meaningful difference to our lives. Topics we discuss are: Non-Toxic Living and why living this way is increasingly important. How do we live a more non-toxic lifestyleHow to supplement your diet to support our cells in reducing the toxins from our body Signs to look out for which indicate that your body is bad at detoxifying The link between the rise in degenerative diseases and Cancer’s and the increase in toxic load on our bodies?What is PC and why is it important?What is Butyrate and who is it important forThe extent of the clinical trials that go into a Body Bio productHow customers should navigate the supplement industryThe Electrolytes market and how different brands varyDo we really need Electrolytes?How to find your balance between living in fear and living a toxin aware lifestyle Sponsors: Healthy Habits - Try mouth tape today and get 20% off your first purchase with code CATCHUPS20 click here HEXCLAD - CATCHUPS20 - 20% off your order Organised - CATCHUPS - 10% off your order This episode was hosted and produced by Georgia Symonds Georgia’s Instagram - click here!

Why does socialising sometimes feel so overwhelming? Are we all becoming more socially anxious? And what can we actually do to feel calmer, more confident and grounded in our everyday lives? This week, I'm joined by Jianne, founder of DIOME, a wellness brand creating science-backed, natural supplements designed to support our mental and physical wellbeing. We dive into the rise of social anxiety, how our increasingly online lives and constant social comparison might be affecting our confidence, and the little things we can do to feel less anxious and more in control. We also talk about one of my favourite subjects: sleep. Why do women often struggle with sleep more than men? How do our hormones impact the quality of our sleep? And what is the real cost of a bad night's rest? Jianne shares the story behind launching DIOME and its two supplements, Grounded and Rested, designed to support calmer days and more restorative nights. We also get into the realities of being a female founder, from the best business decisions she's made to the ones she regrets, and what it's really like launching a brand while navigating life as a new mum. This episode is for anyone who has ever felt socially anxious, struggled to switch off at night or simply wants to feel a little more grounded in a world that can sometimes feel overwhelming. Talking Points: Sleep and why women struggle with sleep around their cycle Pharmaceutical vs Naturaceutical Social anxiety Anxiety and social media Social comparison and confidence The feeling of being grounded and calm Being a founder and a new mum and the art of "balancing the two"Female founder highs and lows Sponsors: Healthy Habits - Try mouth tape today and get 20% off your first purchase with code CATCHUPS20 click here HEXCLAD - CATCHUPS20 - 20% off your order Organised - CATCHUPS - 10% off your order This episode was hosted and produced by Georgia Symonds Georgia’s Instagram - click here!

Can you really have the big career, prioritise your health and wellbeing, and still create a full, meaningful life outside of work? In this episode, I’m joined by Grace Williams, High Performance Nutritionist, for a conversation about what it actually takes to perform at a high level without sacrificing your health in the process. Grace shares her own experience of burnout and how it changed the way she thought about success, wellbeing and the expectations we place on ourselves. We explore the idea of wellness fatigue, when looking after yourself starts to feel like another full-time job and why pursuing perfect health can sometimes take us further away from actually feeling well. This conversation goes far beyond nutrition as Grace opens up about grief and the experience of losing her mum, how loss has shaped her perspective on life, and the role religion and faith have played in her journey. It’s an honest conversation about ambition, health, identity and what it really means to build a big life without feeling as though you have to optimise every part of it. Topics we discuss: Grace's experience with burnout, MS and Wellness Fatigue How to restart once you have hit overwhelm and burnout Diet and eating warm, cooked foods over raw cold salads and the benefits that has on your bodyGrief and how Grace dealt with losing her mumReligion and how Grace's faith is a huge part of wellness Sponsors: Healthy Habits - Try mouth tape today and get 20% off your first purchase with code CATCHUPS20 click here HEXCLAD - CATCHUPS20 - 20% off your order Organised - CATCHUPS - 10% off your order This episode was hosted and produced by Georgia Symonds Georgia’s Instagram - click here!

In this episode, Katie shares what first made her realise something wasn’t right, what led her to get a lump in her chest checked, and what happened next. From chemotherapy to navigating difficult treatment decisions, Katie opens up about a year that completely changed the way she thinks about health, her body and her life. What made her diagnosis especially difficult to process was that Katie had always considered herself incredibly health-conscious. She ate well, took supplements and had built her lifestyle around looking after her body, so being diagnosed with cancer so young forced her to question what “being healthy” really means. We talk about the emotional reality of receiving a diagnosis when you feel like you’ve done everything “right”, the complicated relationship between lifestyle and cancer, and how Katie learned to advocate for herself while navigating a world of conflicting information. Talking points: Being diagnosed with breast cancer at 30Her journey and treatment plan Questioning medical recommendations and advocating for yourselfNavigating conflicting information around conventional and holistic healthThe complementary practices Katie explored alongside her medical treatmentHow her lifestyle has changed since her diagnosisThe emotional impact of cancer and the importance of your support system How to become more familiar with your breasts and notice changes This episode shares Katie’s personal experience and is not intended as medical advice. If you notice a new lump or any unusual change in your breasts, speak to a qualified healthcare professional.

For this very special episode of Catch Ups in My Kitchen, we’ve officially left the kitchen and taken the podcast to the Dolomites! Mum and I are recording from the balcony of Engel Ayurpura, a beautiful Ayurveda retreat in the heart of the Dolomites in South Tyrol, where we’re spending three days slowing down, switching off and immersing ourselves in an Ayurvedic way of living. Engel Ayurpura is centred around the philosophy of Ayurveda and the idea of taking a step back from everyday life to reconnect with yourself. Each stay is tailored to the individual, with the hotel’s Ayurveda medical team creating personalised treatments, therapies and nutrition plans based on your needs. The food is also a huge part of the experience, with individual Ayurvedic menus designed to help bring your doshas back into balance. And all of this is set against the rather incredible backdrop of the Dolomites. In this episode, Mum and I are sharing what the experience has actually been like, from our first Ayurvedic doctor’s appointment and what we learned about our bodies, to the treatments, food, caffeine withdrawals (!) and the little Ayurvedic practices I’d love to take home with me. We also have a much bigger catch up on health and where we both are at the moment. I share an update on my bloating and the changes that have finally made a difference for me, while Mum talks about her recovery following breast cancer and what she’s focusing on now. This episode is in collaboration with Engel Ayurpura. They very kindly hosted us for our stay and have also given the Catch Ups community 15% off a stay with code CATCHUPS15.

In my kitchen this week I am joined by Sam Jones, or as he's known on Instagram: No Meat Disco. Sam Jones is the chef, creator and storyteller behind No Meat Disco, the hugely popular plant-based food platform that has grown into a community of more than one million people. Known for creating bold, comforting and seriously flavour-packed plant-based food, Sam has built an audience by showing that vegan cooking doesn’t need to be complicated or require an endless list of ingredients. His viral Seven Ingredient recipe series has now inspired his debut cookbook, No Meat Disco: Seven-Ingredient Plant-Based Recipes, bringing together simple, accessible recipes designed to put flavour first. But this conversation is about so much more than food. In this episode, I sit down with Sam to talk about why he became vegan, what veganism means to him today, and how his relationship with it has evolved over the years. We get into a conversation that I know will resonate with a lot of people in the vegan community: what happens when creators who originally built their platforms around veganism begin introducing animal products back into their diets? Sam shares how he feels about it, the nuance he thinks is sometimes missing from these conversations, and what he would say to people who simply don't understand veganism or why someone would choose to live this way. Sam has created an audience of over one million people, but as he explains in this episode, numbers aren't necessarily the same thing as community and going viral isn't always the win that it appears to be from the outside. We talk about what he's learned from creating content at scale, the difference between views and genuine connection, and what it actually takes to build a community that wants to stick around. Talking Points: What does food and cooking mean to SamWhy he's VeganThe biggest misconception that people still have about vegan food?The cooking mistake so many make with vegetablesThe creator space and those who have added animal products into their diet after promoting veganismHow going Viral isn't necessarily a good thingThe power of building a community and what that actually meansKitchen Essentials that everyone needs in their cupboardCookbook quick fire If your a foodie, a No Meat Disco Fan, loving hearing the behind the scenes of creators or loving hearing stories of growth then this episode is for you Sponsors: Healthy Habits - Try mouth tape today and get 20% off your first purchase with code CATCHUPS20 click here HEXCLAD - CATCHUPS20 - 20% off your order  This episode was hosted and produced by Georgia Symonds Georgia’s Instagram - click here!

Another solo episode and this one's my September reframe. I'm ditching the "September reset" energy (the detoxes, the all-or-nothing plans) for something that I think actually works, which is getting back into routine. Summer throws everything out the window, sleep, food timing, structure and home cooking. But that's what summer is all about, however there's no doubt we all thrive more with routine underneath us. In this episode I'm walking through my daily routine, sleep, food timing, my fasting window, and why the backbone of your routine changes everything else. I also get into the bloating conversation that was highly requested by you all, how the Ayuervedic lifestyle has been a game changer for my digestion and the other habits I've implemented that have really made a difference Topics Discussed: Why "reset" feels dramatic and why routine, not restriction, is the September moveMy routine and why it works for meThe importance of when you eat and how it structures your dayWhy I stick to a 12-hour gap between dinner and breakfastMy September ins and outsBloating and the Low FODMAP dietAyurvedic principles I've leaned on Sponsors: Sponsors: Healthy Habits - Try mouth tape today and get 20% off your first purchase with code CATCHUPS20 click here HEXCLAD - CATCHUPS20 - 20% off your order  This episode was hosted and produced by Georgia Symonds Georgia’s Instagram - click here!

If there was ever an episode to listen to at the start of September, this is it. This week, I’m joined by entrepreneur, author and former UK & EU CEO of JSHealth Vitamins, Hermione Olivia, to talk about her new book, CEO Yourself, and what it really means to take control of your own life. Hermione has spent her career building businesses, leading teams and navigating the realities of life at CEO level. Today, she is the founder of CEO Yourself, a platform centred around personal leadership, as well as the founder of Untold Mould, a business born from her own experience of discovering mould in her family home. In this conversation, we take the principles Hermione has learnt in business and ask: what happens when we apply them to our own lives? We unpack the idea behind CEO Yourself and Hermione’s CEO Cycle, a framework designed to take you from vision and strategy through to the habits that ultimately help you find flow. We talk about why clarity creates momentum, how to get really specific about what you actually want, and why you absolutely do not need to have all the answers before you begin. We also talk about the power of changing direction. Not every opportunity is the right opportunity, and not every path you start down has to be the one you stay on. Talking points: What does it actually mean to “CEO yourself”?Hermione’s CEO Cycle and how to use it to achieve your goalsHow to create clarity around what you really wantWhy clarity creates momentumGiving yourself permission to pivot and change directionHow to ask for help or clarity without feeling uninformedWhy you don't need to know everything to move forwardHow to be more strategic with your timeHermione’s productivity tips and toolsHow to identify the right opportunities — and say no to the wrong onesStaying healthy and feeling well during your busiest periodsSimple ways to stay on top of your financesWhether we can consume too much self-developmentWhen to put down the self-help book and pick up some fictionWhy Hermione founded Untold MouldWhat you need to know about mould in the homeHermione’s favourite books, apps, wellness spots and productivity toolsWhether you’re heading into September craving a reset, contemplating a big change, or simply want to feel more focused, motivated and excited about your life again, this conversation is about remembering that you don’t have to sit back and wait for life to happen to you.

In my kitchen this week, I am joined by Frida Redknapp a Swedish-born mother of five, entrepreneur and founder of the exciting new food brand FROOD. Frida has always had a real passion for food, family and wellbeing, and FROOD was born from a desire to make cooking nutritious, delicious food at home simpler and more achievable, particularly when life is busy. FROOD is all about taking the effort out of cooking without taking away the goodness. Its blends use whole produce that has been gently dehydrated to preserve nutrients and flavour. Simply add your choice of protein and water, cook, and in around 15 minutes you have a nourishing family meal on the table. In this episode, we talk about why FROOD, where Frida got the idea and how she turned the meals she was already cooking for her own family into a product designed to make life in the kitchen easier. We also get into Frida’s own kitchen and cooking hacks, the simple shortcuts she relies on as a busy mother of five, how she makes healthier eating feel manageable rather than complicated, and her secrets for getting nutritious food onto the table without spending hours in the kitchen. This is an episode all about eating well, cooking smarter and making good nutrition fit into real life. The topics we discuss are: Where did your love for food and cooking come from?What made Frida start Frood What are some of your frustrations around children’s food and children’s diets How she was hyper-focused on the ingredients and didn't want any additivesBuilding FROOD and getting the family involved in the processThe kitchen utensils she uses and loves Healthy Habits she has in the kitchen Her kitchen staples and fridge favourites Sponsorship: Sponsors: Healthy Habits - Try mouth tape today and get 20% off your first purchase with code CATCHUPS20 click here ZAPP discount code - ZAPPKITCHEN - £10 off your first 4 orders over £30 HEXCLAD - CATCHUPS20 - 20% off your order  This episode was hosted and produced by Georgia Symonds Georgia’s Instagram - click here!

In my kitchen this week I am joined by Lauren Vaknine, who has one of the most extraordinary health stories I’ve ever heard. Diagnosed with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis as a toddler, Lauren’s condition became so severe that by 18 she was wheelchair-bound and living with arthritis throughout her body. At 29, after years of exploring a more holistic, whole-person approach to her health, Lauren went into remission. Lauren is now a holistic health and life coach, wellness educator, writer, TEDx speaker, podcast host and mother. Her work focuses on something we talk about so much on this podcast: looking at the whole person, not just the symptom and considering our physical, mental, emotional and spiritual wellbeing together. What I found so fascinating about Lauren’s story is the role intuition played in it. She describes having an inner knowing that disability wasn’t going to be the rest of her story. Rather than continuing to rely solely on conventional medicine, she began researching, questioning and taking greater ownership of her health, exploring everything from nutrition and movement to emotional healing, spirituality and the mind-body connection. This conversation isn’t about telling you what you should or shouldn’t do with your own health. It’s about being curious and asking questions rather than taking things at face value. Are we sometimes treating the symptom without asking what else might be going on?Could there be more to healing than medication alone?And how much attention are we paying to what our own bodies are trying to tell us? In this episode we discuss: Her journey from diagnosis to remissionFluoride and why we should be opting for Fluoride FreeAlcohol and how it's a toxinThe role Homeopathy has played in her healingWestern vs HomeopapthyHow she healed holistically and what that meansWhat health means to her today Whether you’re dealing with chronic illness, feel frustrated because you haven’t been getting the answers you need, or simply want to become more intentional about the way you look after your mind and body, this conversation will give you plenty to think about. It might just make you look at your health — and what “healing” really means — differently. Please note: This episode shares Lauren’s personal experiences and perspectives and is intended for informational purposes only. It is not medical advice. Always speak to an appropriately qualified healthcare professional before changing medication or treatment.

This week in my Kitchen, I'm joined by Lucy Watson, creator, author, entrepreneur, influencer and mum. Best known for her time on Made in Chelsea, Lucy has also become one of the UK's most recognisable advocates for the vegan diet and lifestyle. She is the author of three vegan cookbooks, with her latest, Feed Me More Veggies, inspired by her son, Willoughby. Designed with families in mind, the book encourages parents to introduce more vegetables into both their own diets and their children's from an early age. Lucy is also the founder of Renue The Label, a sustainable cotton underwear brand. In this episode, we explore Lucy's journey to veganism, why living a vegan lifestyle remains so important to her, how she's stayed committed despite the recent rise in popularity of meat-heavy and carnivore diets, and why she and her husband have chosen to raise their son vegan. For Lucy, veganism is far more than what's on your plate, it's a way of life and we dive into every aspect of what that means. Having previously run a vegan business and followed a vegan diet myself, this was a fascinating conversation. I share my own experience of reintroducing more animal products into my diet, while also explaining why I still believe a predominantly plant-based diet is one of the healthiest and most nutrient-rich ways to eat. It's an honest, respectful discussion where we challenge each other's perspectives, find common ground, and explore the evidence behind one of the most debated topics in nutrition. In this episode we discuss: Why Lucy turned Vegan The vegan lifestyle and how her beliefs go beyond just food The Plant-Based "Trend"The new Carnivore obsessionWhether Lucy has ever been swayed against her Vegan beliefsRaising her child Vegan and the why behind it Her new book Feed Me More VeggiesBeing pregnant and her fertility journey Her brand Renue and previous businesses in the Vegan space Sponsors: Healthy Habits - Try mouth tape today and get 20% off your first purchase with code CATCHUPS20 click here ZAPP discount code - ZAPPKITCHEN - £10 off your first 4 orders over £30 HEXCLAD - CATCHUPS20 - 20% off your order  This episode was hosted and produced by Georgia Symonds Georgia’s Instagram - click here!

It's time for a solo girlie catch-up! In this episode, I'm sharing a life and health update, chatting honestly about where I'm at right now and everything that's been going on behind the scenes. This episode is less of a deep dive and more of an honest catch-up, as well as a reminder that health isn't always linear, and sometimes the best thing we can do is listen to our bodies, be patient, and take things one step at a time. I've recently been told that I have SIBO and therefore I am on the Low FODMAP diet in order to reset my body, stop the bloating and then re-introduce different food groups one at a time in order to identify what is causing the issues. On top of that I am taking lots of natural supplements in order to reduce my symptoms, digestive enzymes to help me break down my food properly and prebiotics in order to support the gut in the process. The topics we discuss are: BloatingSIBOLow FODMAP dietMy experience with a systematic kinesiologistContraceptionThe Mirena CoilWorkouts and what I'm lovingKitchen utensil swaps that you need to do If you've been navigating gut issues, hormonal health, or simply trying to find a routine that feels good, I hope this episode makes you feel a little less alone as well as inspires you to make some healthy swaps and changes Sponsors: Healthy Habits - Try mouth tape today and get 20% off your first purchase with code CATCHUPS20 click here ZAPP discount code - ZAPPKITCHEN - £10 off your first 4 orders over £30 HEXCLAD - CATCHUPS20 - 20% off your order  This episode was hosted and produced by Georgia Symonds Georgia’s Instagram - click here!
