About this episode
"Awareness Solves Half of Your Life's Problems" - Tia Maria 164 | Integrative Nutritionist Gut Hormone Specialist. Tia is a double-certified Integrative Nutritionist specialised in Gut and Hormone Health. Her journey into wellness began early, shaped by watching her mother bravely battle breast cancer twice and her father navigate his own health challenges.

A year and a half ago Tia founded TMD Wellness alongside her social media platforms to share her passion for integrative health and inspire a growing community committed to well-being. Through an integrative and holistic approach, Tia’s mission is to empower you at every stage of your journey whether your goal is to optimize your health, cultivate sustainable habits, or restore your health from within. 00:00 Intro04:29 Gut Health 10107:32 Diet Culture, Stress Eating & Quick Fixes13:37 Pills vs. Food15:12 Obesity, Awareness & the Food Industry20:46 Sugar & Inflammation23:26 Finding Purpose26:44 Inflammation Explained Simply32:19 Delivery Apps, Portion Sizes & Awareness43:24 Hormones, Birth Control & Natural Balance51:01 Sleep: The Ultimate Longevity Hack58:13 Diets vs. Sustainable Living1:03:04 Discipline Over Motivation1:04:42 Setting Boundaries & Finding Balance1:06:15 Schools & Life Skills1:11:21 Leaving 9-to-5 & Trusting Your Gut1:17:30 Your Circle Defines Your Growth1:23:32 Enjoying Without Guilt1:26:40 The GCC Health Awakening1:43:01 Purpose Over Paycheck1:45:23 Gratitude, Purpose & Closing Remarks
