This week in my kitchen, I’m sitting down for a solo episode to share my personal 2025 health and wellness debrief. I’m chatting about everything from reintroducing meat into my diet after a decade, to the supplements I’m currently loving, the wellness practices I rely on, and the areas I’m still working on.Hosting this podcast gives me the privilege of learning from so many incredible experts—but you can’t adopt every piece of advice. Sometimes you need to sift through it all and figure out what genuinely supports you. So in this episode, I’m giving you an honest update on where I’m at in my own wellness journey.Topics discussed:What health and wellness mean for me nowWhat I’ve changed or doubled down on throughout the yearHow my diet has changed Focusing on clean ingredients and overall clean eatingAdded meat back into my dietIncluding bone broth — and the reasons behind itSharing the journey and process around this changeGuilty pleasures - Acknowledging the importance of having enjoyable indulgencesSupplements I've introduced this yearCleaning Materials and Household swapsWellness practices I can't live withoutWhat I want to work on in 2026Sponsors:Healthy Habits - Try mouth tape today and get 20% off your first purchase with code CATCHUPS20click hereThis episode was hosted and produced by Georgia SymondsGeorgia’s Instagram - click here!For more information and other interesting articles check out our website: www.catchupsinmykitchen.com Hosted on Acast.

In my kitchen this week I am joined by Donna Bartoli someone I genuinely consider as one of the healthiest, most glowing people on the internet.
