I'm delighted to share the conversation with Martina Cowen, exploring the fundamental triangle between Nutrition, Psychology and Cooking. This is such a cornerstone for our mind-body connection as humans and Martina's approach is so empowering, refreshing and inspiring, I think there's something we all need to hear in here for our own wellbeing!

Martina Cowen is a Registered Nutritional Therapist and Mind-Body Eating Coach with over 10 years' experience in nutrition.

She is the founder of 'Freedom from Cravings', where she helps people understand what is really driving cravings, digestive difficulties and eating patterns that can feel difficult to change.

Her approach brings together evidence-based nutritional therapy with the psychology of habits, behaviour and our relationship with food. Martina helps clients understand both the biology and behaviour behind what is happening.

Alongside her private practice, Martina lectures in nutrition and biomedicine and works as a clinical supervisor, supporting the next generation of nutritional therapists.

Freedom from Cravings is where biology meets behaviour.

I hope you enjoy our conversation and find something helpful in here for you.

I know I've certainly learned a lot and its already making me think differently about the experience we create with food, in support of our overall health and wellbeing.

We'd love to hear your comments, questions and feedback. And if you'd like to get in touch directly with Martina, her details are below.

Thank you Martina! Your story has truly inspired us.

Welcoming Ellie Lloyd-Jones to the podcast!

It was such a great conversation for me with Ellie, I really hope you enjoy it too.

So many parallels, from burnout to recovery and setting up your own business; to empowering others to connect with themselves, find space and explore with nature as a partner; to discovering and deepening the relationship to ourselves through the help of the Enneagram (a very comprehensive human personality system /map).

Ellie shares some really honest and reflective insights into her own journey and life, inclusing the challenges and learning she's gained along the way.

I loved Ellie's authentic self-awareness and how she's creating spaces, resources and communities so that leaders, teams and individuals can all uncover what they need and how nature can be the best facilitator and healer.

If you'd like to connect with Ellie directly, I really recommend connecting with her on Linked in or via her own website. Details below:-
