We've dabbled in low carb eating (hello low carb sweet treats are the best!) but keto has never ever been our thing because we hate counting food and we just know (call it intuition) that good carbs are not our enemies.We wanted to chat all things keto diet because we are getting lots of people asking about it and we're seeing a new wave of ketogenic supplements (yes, another quick fix to shortcut weight loss).Becuase we do not have great scientific knowledge in how the human body functions we asked our good friend Dr Rachel Wyndham to join us. Yes, an actual Doctor and Naturopath who spent YEARS of her life studying the human body from two very different perspectives.We also want to put a disclaimer out right now. If you are a big fan of keto, if it's worked for you, if you sell a keto supplement product this is not a personal attack on you. This is simply us taking an interest with curiosity and questioning everything.And if you do buy or sell any kind of 'health' product we'd suggest you question everythin

This was our old view. Yoga and Pilates are for skinny and flexible people. Oh, how wrong we were! Really, this perspective was created from our own insecurities.

This podcast is brought to you by Bean Ninjas. If you have a biz or side hustle check them out!  Far out this episode is craycray, maybe we are just being more us, speaking our truth. Who knows but we had a lot of fun and we reckon you will too! If you need some inspiration (aka a friendly kick up the butt) to work on stuff you love... LISTEN!  A couple things inspired this epic Get Merry chat. Carla is reading a life changing book at the moment (she won't stop banging on about it). She also reacted badly to an issue, so this got us chatting about the importance of our reactions. Yoga and Pilates came up because both practises made huge positive impact to our lives.

How often do you worry about what others think about you? Does it stop you from doing stuff? Does it impact your behaviour? Does it stop you living your truth? Does it stop you living your life?  What about when people actually start talking about you? What the heck do you do in these situations? How can you move through this in an easier way? During this Get Merry podcast we discuss this topic. We also give some pretty good tips too.  Tune in, then let us know what you think! Send us a message on social media, share your biggest takeaway.  Stuff we talked about... when we worry about what others think of us it's actually self-judgement. It's all made up in our own heads... whatever we are worried about other people thinking, we are actually thinking. So what is the real issue? when people say stuff about others it is only but a projection of their own inner world.   whatever people say about you... it's none of your business.  so much more.... and of course we have our own aha moments.  If you loved this e

We've never really sat down and had a discussion about our values. So this episode is super SUPER real! All our episodes are REAL but usually, they're born from a coffee date chat and one of us will say "this is a podcast episode idea!" then we discuss again in an episode. In this #GetMerry podcast episode we literally sat down and Carla said "shall we talk about our values" and boom we hit record.  We believe it is extremely important to know what our core values are because once we know, we can align ourselves with people, jobs and decisions that match up with our values. This creates more flow, more magic, it creates steadiness and a sense of ease.  Example... if health is a core value do not work at a fast food place. If you do you'll feel a sense of anger while you are working there. You will feel a sense of dis-ease. You will feel yuck.  Stuff we talked about... we actually go through some of our core values: health, honesty, kindness, loyalty, enthusiasm, connections.  why connecting with people with

Ok, we were kinda crazy in this episode. Must have been the high of our epic MerryBody launch. We chat about perfectionism and why the goal of perfection is holding you back. In big big big ways.  It's a whole heap of fun, tune in! If you know anyone suffering from the perfection disease, send this episode to them!  Stuff we talked about... why is everyone obsessed with being perfect? how we've pretty much never waited till we're 'ready' and 'perfect' before starting a project. perfect is actually fake... it's made up!  how perfectionism is just self-doubt and fear of what others think of you.   See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
