Thalia Pellegrini wants us to hold our wellbeing sacred
Wednesday Aug 09, 2023
Wednesday Aug 09, 2023
My guest this time is registered nutritional therapist Thalia Pellegrini. After a decade as a broadcast journalist for the BBC, presenting programs including Newsround and The Travel Show and reporting for Holiday, she followed her passion and retrained at the Institute of Optimum Nutrition in London. Her specialist interest is women’s health with a focus on perimenopause.
In our discussion we cover:
- living with chronic fatigue syndrome/ME in her twenties and how working with a nutritional therapist allowed her to go back to living a normal life;
- the role of permission and self-compassion as an antidote to guilt and overwhelm;
- Midlife as a powerful opportunity to invest in our longer term wellbeing
- stress management - how stress trumps everything. It impacts digestion, hormonal balance, weight gain, sleep... the list goes on.
- How losing two good friends in just three years brought her own midlife health into sharper focus
- Tips for dealing with bloating and constipation
One thing that will stick with me from this interview is Thalia’s invitation to ‘Hold your own wellbeing sacred’ - midlife is definitely a time where we need to recognise that prioritizing our health and happiness is not selfish - quite the opposite.
