Taking care of your health whilst running a business with Fran Dargaville

Straight Up Small Business

Over my last three years in business I’ve really let my health fall to the wayside and I’m sure many of you might be in the same boat.

That’s why on the podcast today I interview Fran Dargaville, who is a functional nutritionist with a Masters degree in Human Nutrition. Fran’s zone of genius is gut health and I was super keen to learn and refresh my knowledge on this topic.

In this episode we run through the symptoms that might indicate your gut is out of balance, the main factors that impact gut health and why entrepreneurs are often the worst offenders when it comes to health.

Digestive symptoms, fatigue, brain fog, difficulty sleeping, hormonal imbalances, and autoimmune conditions are all messages from our body that something is out of balance.

Fran gives helpful, prescriptive steps we can take to help get our gut health back on track. We cover the importance of sleep and her tips around how to get your body clock back on track. She also covers the importance of protein, dietary changes and supplement recommendations, her recommendations around alternative milks and how much coffee is too much.

Fran also gives some helpful insight on how she works with clients and the kind of tests she runs for valuable insights into what is going on in our bodies.

Fran emphasises that having a good time, and living our lives is important - it’s all about doing the best you can, as much as you can. She also takes us through how she runs her business to have the lifestyle she wants and the boundaries she keeps in order to achieve long-term sustainability.

This episode is like a bite sized gut health boot camp. Get your notebook and pen out to capture all of her wisdom.
