    Negative Self-Talk

    03/05/2026 | 24 mins.
    If you struggle with negative self-talk, this episode is for you. That quiet inner voice (“here we go again”, “my body is broken”) can keep you stuck even when you’re doing everything right with nutrition, supplements, training, and sleep.
    Vesna and Melissa unpack how negative thoughts can trigger a stress response and keep your nervous system in fight or flight, making fatigue, anxiety, inflammation, brain fog, and poor sleep feel worse.
    You’ll learn how to spot the story you attach to symptoms and shift it with simple awareness practices. Perfect for anyone navigating burnout recovery, chronic stress, nervous system dysregulation, women’s health, and healing mindset.

    Is it Burnout or Perimemopause?

    26/04/2026 | 19 mins.
    If you’ve been wondering whether it’s burnout or perimenopause, this episode breaks down why the symptoms can feel so similar. Fatigue, poor sleep, anxiety, brain fog, irritability, mood changes, hormone shifts, and feeling overwhelmed can all point to burnout, perimenopause, or both.
    We talk about the overlap between chronic stress and perimenopause, why stress can amplify hormone symptoms, and why it’s important to look at the full picture. That includes your symptoms, cycle, stress load, lifestyle, and pathology testing rather than guessing too quickly.
    If you’re dealing with perimenopause symptoms, burnout, women’s hormones, chronic stress, sleep issues, mood swings, or nervous system dysregulation, this episode will help you better understand what your body may be trying to tell you.

    Most women think it’s just bloating. It's Not.

    19/04/2026 | 8 mins.
    If you deal with bloating, gut issues, food intolerances, IBS symptoms, constipation, diarrhoea, nausea, or stomach distension, this video explains why it may be more than “just bloating.” A lot of women are told these symptoms are normal, hormonal, or just part of getting older, but ongoing digestive issues can point to something deeper happening in the gut.
    In this video, I talk about SIBO (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth), one of the possible causes of chronic bloating and unexplained digestive symptoms. We cover why symptoms like gas, abdominal swelling, discomfort after eating, and irregular bowel movements are often brushed off or misdiagnosed, and why proper gut health testing can matter when standard blood work comes back “normal.”
    I also break down why the low FODMAP diet is not a long-term solution for gut healing, even though it can help manage symptoms during treatment. If you’ve been struggling with women’s gut health, IBS, microbiome issues, inflammation, nutrient deficiencies, fatigue, or brain fog, this conversation will help you understand what may be going on beneath the surface.
    If your gut symptoms keep getting dismissed, this is your reminder to look deeper. Chronic bloating, SIBO, digestive health, gut inflammation, microbiome balance, women’s health, and functional testing all matter when it comes to getting real answers and feeling better long term.

About Peak Revival
Are you a high-achieving woman, a professional juggling career and family? Do you find yourself constantly drained by long hours and endless to-do lists? If so, then Peak Revival is for you. As a naturopath, executive wellbeing coach and mind-body peak performance specialist, I'll be sharing actionable strategies to help you avoid burnout, conquer brain fog, and ditch the stress that's holding you back from feeling and looking your best. These topics are close to my heart – I've experienced burnout twice myself in my early career. Back then, business felt inherently stressful, and I was pushing myself way too hard. I've learned a lot since then, and I'm here to share those insights and strategies with you. We'll be looking at practical ways to improve your physical and mental wellbeing through nutrition, psychology, circadian rhythms, and more. I see amazing women in my community every day, and they're capable of incredible things! The problem is, they often prioritise everyone else's needs before their own. This constant self-sacrifice leads to burnout, making everything in life even harder. But here's the good news: the struggles that you’re facing are fixable and this podcast is here to help.
