In this episode of An Authentic Life, I reflect on my recent (second) miscarriage and the wake-up call it has been for me and my life. And yes, I am as tired as I sound. Coming to terms with your own behaviours is hard, but I truly believe that our bodies are constantly talking to us all the time, so if we aren't mentally able to cultivate awareness of our behaviour in the moment, listening to your body can be the jolt you need to realise that things may need to change. Of course, as is my brand, I do this gently, with unconditional love, forgiveness and patience, as this is truly the only way that I know really works.  This episode covers: Recognising avoidance behaviours (binge eating, binge watching, social media addiction) Cultivating awareness & acceptance of your coping mechanisms without shame My anxiety and why I can't help but isolate myself at times when I probably need to reach out What romanticising my life looks and feels like (a different approach to gratitude and seeing the beauty in the mundane) Healing from miscarriage (nervous system, thyroid, blood sugar regulation/insulin resistance) Giving yourself a safe space to feel your feelings (anger, grief, resentment) Don't forget to get in touch if this resonates @mirandaswellness or @anauthenticlifepodcast on Instagram or [email protected]

If you always blame your lack of self-control for the undoing of your goals, perhaps it's time to instead strive for self-trust. Self-trust focuses on improving your relationship with yourself and having your own back.  Warning, it did get a little teary. Shame is so last century, friend. In this episode, I chat: The difference between self-control and self-trust Why self-control isn't everything it's cracked up to be My goals for 2022 (financial, business, life and family) Why I aim to be my own biggest cheerleader The role of self-trust in my life and my mindset How to improve your own self-trust Self-trust in childbirth Work with me: Join the MBody 6-month immersion  Make Friends With Salad eBook $12 Book a complimentary discovery call   Get the clarity and direction you don’t get from your GP with a holistic Blood Test Report $66 Find me on Instagram @mirandaswellness and @anauthenticlifepodcast

Do you ever look at spiritual people on Instagram and feel completely intimidated / alienated / turned off by the corny, privileged, out-of-touch, holier-than-though energy that they seem to give off? Or perhaps you see the bad bitch energy, glittery, sexy, witchy, money manifestation babes and feel super intimidated by their confidence? Because SAMESIES, honey. SAMESIES. But here's the thing, spirituality has nothing to do with an aesthetic and everything to do with your relationship with yourself - your higher self, your unconscious self and your intuition. In today's episode I talk about my spiritual practice, to give you tangible ideas to begin your spiritual path in an authentic, accessible and joyful way. Including: How I use tarot, oracle and affirmation cards How I work with my inner child with a Spotify playlist of emo music (seriously) What my spiritual practice feels like to me How I discovered what works for me How I fit in my spiritual practise as a full-time mother and business owner I promise, it doesn't matter who you are, you can find a spiritual practice that feels authentic to you, without the labels, the aesthetic, or the schtick.

On the 12th April 2021 - my 34th birthday - when the New Moon was exact, I had a miscarriage at 12 weeks. My baby was due on 31st October. This was my first miscarriage and my second pregnancy, and was honestly a really healing experience for me after the traumatic birth of my son. I wanted to share my story for 2 reasons; Because I don't see many accounts of miscarriage that reflect my own, so I wanted to provide a space for anyone who felt the same without invalidating the experiences of others Because before I had a miscarriage, I really didn't know what to expect would happen. My doctor told me it would be like a heavy period (newsflash: it wasn't). So this is the kind of information I would have been grateful to have my hands on. I hope that if you choose to listen to it, it helps you in some way, but warning that some may find the content triggering. This podcast is a very detailed account of my story, so if discussion of blood, cervical mucous or poo is too much, this may not be the episode for you, as I didn't hold anything back.

As far as I'm concerned, the food you eat should bring you joy, but I also know that not everyone thinks about food the way that I do. So in this episode, I share my simple tips for joyful eating.  I also give my thoughts on airfryers, BPA and endocrine/hormone disrupters, because why the heck not?
