Today, I'm diving into one of the most underrated but powerful tools for optimising your weight and overall health—your gut microbiome, and how fibre intake is key for this! Your gut bacteria play a huge role in metabolism, hunger hormones, energy levels, and even inflammation, all of which impact your ability to lose weight and keep it off.

In this episode, I’m breaking down:
✅ How your gut microbiome is directly linked to your weight
✅ Why fiber is essential for gut health and weight loss
✅ Easy, practical ways to boost your fiber intake daily
✅ My go-to fiber-packed foods and simple swaps
✅ The biggest mistakes people make when increasing fiber (and how to avoid them!)

I also share some of my favourite fiber hacks from my programs, including how I make sure women in the 3 Week Body Reset and the Health with Bec Tribe are hitting their fiber needs.

Known on instagram as The Gut Health MD, Dr. B shares his personal gut health transformation and why his 16 years of medical training didn’t teach him about the power of food, so he took it into his own hands. We uncover science-backed strategies to heal your gut naturally and he should absolutely open your mind to things you wouldn’t have heard of before that impact your gut health!!

• The biggest gut health mistakes you might be making

• How your gut controls your immune system, metabolism, mood, and more

• The surprising connection between sleep and gut health

In this episode, I sat down with Louisa, a mother of two and a teacher who has undergone an INSANE health transformation. From struggling with gut health issues, psoriasis and low energy to losing over 10 kilograms, regaining her energy and clearing her skin, Louisa has totally transformed her confidence and wellbeing in every single way, whilst enjoying every meal and finding it super easy!

Louisa shares how the 3-Week Body Reset and Health with Bec Tribe have completely changed her life.

Together, we explore:

• How gut health is crucial to improve if you want to see every area of health improve

• The realisation of how years of antibiotics affected her gut and health

• The importance of self care and carving out the time for you if you’re serious about improving your health and life

• How she plans her weeks to stay on track

• How small, consistent changes can ripple into all areas of your life

And more!

This episode is packed with inspiration, actionable advice and practical tips for anyone looking to take the first step toward feeling like the best version of themselves in every way.

To take the healthy steps required for change, we need motivation.

And without the feel-good chemicals in our bodies, it makes it damn hard. I truly believe that happiness is central to growth and change in all areas, including finding and maintaining your balanced weight.

I mean... if we don't feel good, we don't want to feel our bodies well, we don't have the motivation to exercise and we don't have the grit to take those steps that we SO WANT TO TAKE.

Feeling sad, unmotivated and low unfortunatly can keep you stuck in your comfortable ways, and whilst it's SO normal and we all have our bad days, there are certainly ways they we can try to boost our bodies serotinin (feel good chemicals) to help us have more of the better ones.

So, this episode is for you if you're looking to boost your happiness in order to make these healthy changes easier.

If you're struggling at the moment, please know that you're not alone. I really hope this podcast helps you!

I also recap on my walk with some members from the Health with Bec Tribe and the power that came from it!
