S1 Ep02 - Our Health Journeys: Outgrowing Old Health Models + Cultivating Inner Trust

In this opening episode, hosts Katie and Sophie delve into the core values and intentions behind their podcast series. They emphasize the importance of building a community centered around inner trust, self-awareness, and holistic health.

Katie shares her personal journey through various health models, influenced by her mystical upbringing and later experiences with herbalism and Bach flowers.

Sophie reflects on her own journey from feeling frustrated with conventional approaches, to guilt and over-control with her health to her eventual alignment with understanding the body through a bio-logical lens.

The episode sets the stage for future discussions on shifting from fear-based health approaches to those rooted in deeper trust of ourselves and our bodies.
