Gut Health is Your Superpower as a Mom and Business Owner with Dr. Heather Finley
Manage episode 387736036 series 2365102
What if we told you that everything begins in the gut? From hormone imbalances to mood, brain fog and concentration problems- it’s all connected!
In today’s episode, I talk with Heather Finley, registered dietician and founder of the gutTogether program. Through her work, Dr. Finley aims to empower Mothers to prioritize their gut health and its impact on overall well-being. She approaches gut health from a functional nutrition perspective, looking beyond just the foods you eat, addressing the underlying causes of your symptoms and identifying lifestyle factors that could be contributing.
Throughout the episode, Dr. Finley emphasizes the significance of maternal gut health, especially during the critical postpartum period. This time, often overlooked by doctors, plays a crucial role in digestion, nutrient absorption, hormone balance, and even mental health. She also sheds light on the importance of the thyroid. Having dealt with thyroid issues herself during her pregnancies, Dr. Finley understands the importance of proper nutrition in supporting the thyroid and wants to empower other mothers with knowledge to make informed choices.
You’ll hear:
Why we should focus on obtaining nutrients from foods rather than relying solely on supplements
How a diverse range of gut bacteria promotes overall health
The critical importance of prioritizing postpartum nutrition to support your gut health
How to trust your intuition when it comes to your health
The connection between your legacy, health, and motherhood
