The JOY of Food, Hormones & Falling Back in Love With Your Plate with Kimberly Parsons

This week I'm joined by the wonderful Kimberly Parsons, naturopath, author of The Yoga Kitchen cookbooks (has been one of my favourites for over a decade!), and founder of Naturalli, the app helping women eat in sync with their hormones. If you've ever felt afraid of food, confused by conflicting advice, or just exhausted by trying to figure out what your body actually needs, this episode is for you.
Kimberly and I talk about her journey from a childhood spent in her nonna's Italian kitchen garden in Melbourne, to an accidental career as a private chef in the Alps, to building a business dedicated to helping women understand the deep, beautiful link between food, joy, and hormonal health.
In this episode
- Kimberly's story: growing up surrounded by food in an Italian household, and the winding path from naturopathy to private cheffing to hormone health
- Why food has always been Kimberly's "home for joy" — and how it can be yours too
- What "whole food" really means, and why we've overcomplicated something so simple
- A crash course in naturopathy — treating the whole body as an interconnected system, not a set of separate symptoms
- Why so many women fear food, and how to rebuild a relationship with eating that feels like pleasure instead of punishment
- Raising kids who aren't picky eaters — Kimberly's approach to feeding her own family whole, unprocessed food
- The hormone hierarchy: how insulin and cortisol quietly run the show for estrogen and progesterone
- Why your first and second cycle halves need completely different plates (and what to eat when)
- How to eat with your hormones in mind even if you're not currently cycling — using the moon as your guide
- Brain fog, big decisions, and why perimenopause hits women at the exact moment life demands the most from them
- Inside the Naturally app — how it takes the guesswork out of eating for your hormones, day by day
- Why women are so wildly different from men, biologically — and why that's something to celebrate, not fight against
Kimberly's mission, in her own words: every woman should be able to advocate for herself and make empowered, informed decisions about her hormones but she can't do that without the education most of us were never given.
