Hi Reader, Can we talk about those moments when you realize something HAS to change? I want to share a deeply personal story with you – one that literally transformed my health journey. It's about the day I did something I never thought I'd do after 32 years of being a committed vegetarian... Picture this: I was at rock bottom with my health.I'd had 10 years of undiagnosed Hypothyroidism leading to Thyroid cancer. Even after my thyroid was removed and I was on 100% thyroid medication, things weren't getting better. They were getting worse. Despite following what I thought was a "healthy" plant-based diet (I'd been a committed vegetarian and sometimes vegan since I was 16 - Thats 32 years! ), I was watching my health spiral downward. I was terrified, exhausted, and honestly? I feared I might not make it. You know that quote from Tony Robbins? "If you do what you've always done, you'll get what you've always gotten." Well, those words hit me like a ton of bricks one Sunday morning. I woke up with this crystal-clear realization: I needed to make a radical change. I needed to take massive action My body was screaming for something different, and I finally decided to listen. What happened next still makes me smile (and cringe a little). Picture me, a 32-year vegetarian, walking into a farm shop with a butchers counter, feeling like I was crossing into enemy territory! 😅 There I was, asking the butcher (who turned out to be incredibly kind) how to buy and cook a chicken. My husband and I then literally sat at home watching YouTube videos, terrified we'd give ourselves food poisoning! But here's the amazing part – that first meal was almost... spiritual. It was like my body KNEW this was the nourishment it had been craving. That one radical decision became my turning point. From there, I learned to make healing bone broths, chicken soups and discovered new ways of nourishing my body. Slowly but surely, I started climbing out of that health pit I'd been stuck in. Key Takeaways:
Your Action Steps:
Here's what I want you to remember: Taking radical action doesn't always mean making huge, dramatic changes (though sometimes it does!). Sometimes it's just about having the courage to take that first small step in a completely new direction. You're braver than you know, and your body is wiser than you think. Trust that inner voice that's telling you it's time for a change – even if it's asking you to do something that feels completely outside your comfort zone. With love and support, P.S.

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,...
