A Paleo or Primal Diet Can Put Hashimoto's Into Remission {PROOF}

Hi Beautiful! You know what really lights a fire under me? When people are told there's nothing they can do about their autoimmune thyroid condition, Hashimoto's “Just take the tablets,” they’re told. “Diet won’t make a difference. Just accept it” I’ve been saying for years that this simply isn’t true—and now, I’ve got some solid research to back it up. 👉 A new study looked at how ancestral or ‘paleo / primal-style’ diets impact autoimmune thyroid disease… and the results were pretty amazing....

Hi Reader, The Weight We Carry (That No One Sees) Let’s talk about something that most women have done their entire lives - without a thank you, without a paycheck, and often without even realising it: Emotional labor. It’s the invisible job of managing everyone else’s feelings.It’s smiling when you're seething inside.Soothing tensions before they erupt.Keeping family connections alive.Not because someone asked you to -but because that’s what women do.We’re taught to be the peacemakers. The...

Hello Reader, Let’s talk about January-and the pressure that so often comes with it. Everywhere you look, someone’s shouting about big goals, strict routines, and finally “getting your life together.” And if you’re living with hypothyroidism or Hashimoto’s, it can feel like these messages just weren’t made for you. You're already battling exhaustion, stubborn weight gain, brain fog-and now you're meant to start running 5 miles a day too? No wonder it feels impossible. And when something feels...

It’s called: Beyond Calories: Why Diets Stop Working When the Thyroid Isn’t SupportedThe missing information behind stubborn weight and low energy This is a gentle, educational session for anyone who feels confused or frustrated by the usual advice around food, weight, and energy when hypothyroidism or Hashimoto’s are involved. We’ll be talking about: Why...

Hello Reader, I always notice this after Christmas and the festive period, not right in the middle of it. It’s that quieter moment when things slow down again and the body starts sending little signals. For me, inflammation shows up like a check engine light. Nothing’s broken.Nothing’s gone wrong yet.But something’s a bit off. It can look like: 🚨 A sluggish, foggy brain where thinking feels slower 🚨 Sleep that’s lighter and more broken, with odd, unrestful dreams 🚨 Stiff joints or that heavy,...

Free Energy Webinar – Tomorrow Hi Reader, With Christmas just around the corner - and the pace of life starting to ramp up - I want to share something that could genuinely change how you feel heading into the holidays. This is the time of year when so many women push through exhaustion, ignore their body's signals, and end up crashing right before Christmas... or worse, right in the middle of it. The late nights, the extra food, the stress, the cold weather, the emotional load - it all stacks...

Hi Reader, The Wish We Don’t Make Until It’s Too Late You know that quote - “A healthy woman has a thousand wishes, but a sick woman has only one.” I never truly felt the weight of that until these past two weeks. I caught what I thought was just a really rough flu... But it developed into full-blown vertigo. I couldn’t sit up, look at a screen, or even think straight. I felt sick, dizzy, and completely drained. And I've had thyroid cancer in the past, so anything that knocks me off my feet...

Hi Reader, Tomorrow we kick off something really special - and it’s completely free to join. It’s our Thyroid-Friendly Advent Calendar Challenge, created to help you get through December feeling calmer, steadier, and far less overwhelmed. Because let’s be honest… the run-up to Christmas can be brutal when you’re already dealing with fatigue, stress, brain fog, or that constant “pushing through” feeling. Many of us ended last Christmas absolutely wiped out - drained, puffy, stressed, and...

Hello Reader, You might’ve seen the news - the UK government’s launching a new obesity project in Scotland. They’re funding weight loss injections for thousands of people, mostly in the poorest areas. Now, before I go any further, let me say this: I’m not against weight loss injections. For some, they can be absolutely life-changing. ❤️ But here’s what’s being completely missed. If proper thyroid testing were funded first, so many of those people wouldn’t even need weight-loss treatment at...

Hello Reader, I want to talk about a kind of tiredness that words don’t really cover. The kind that seeps into your bones. The kind that makes even walking up the stairs feel like climbing a mountain. When my hypothyroidism first really kicked off after having my children, that’s what it was like. Looking back, I think it started much earlier, maybe after glandular fever in my teens, but pregnancy was what tipped it over the edge. I remember standing halfway up the stairs, two little kids in...
