NC 6: Evolution of Purpose - Nathan Maingard
Monday Jan 22, 2024
Monday Jan 22, 2024
"Purpose is not about what you are doing, it's about who you are." Nathan Maingard.
Nathan Maingard -Transformational Guide, Empowering Wordsmith, & Podcast Host
We Are Already Free - is the insight and affirmation that Nathan lives his life from. I first heard about Nathan, not through his amazing music career, but his wise long form poem "We are already free", that went viral through the chaos of 2021. A poem that was inspired to speak wisdom through the clouds of insanity, fear and division. Historically, artist have been the ones to shine light on absurdity, beauty, humanity, politics, and possibilities via their mediums of music and art. But there was an eerie quiet that beckoned for the space to be embraced and expressed into. That poem for me spoke a harmonic resonance into the chaos and opened up almost a question and even a dare "You know you are already free".
What a cracking chat with Nathan as we took a meander through his life. From his childhood of barefoot and free, to the world demanding he fit in and bowing his knee to this. But then his courage to surrender and leap into the unknown. We have a beautiful discussion around shame, "the big leap", sabotage patterns, letting go of identities, surrendering to the wisdom of the innate, his passion for holding space and its expression in his coaching space. Nathan is an incredible Sol and such a gift to share space with him in this podcast.

The intent for these recordings is to be unhomogenised and unpasteurised conversations that aligns with real life. The falling over words, the poise and challenge in moments to understand how to verbalise what’s wanting to come forward, is part of the realness of nutrient dense conversations. So, with that, I have to say I'm embracing and enjoying watching my own clunkiness as I explore my expression through this space. I hope you too hold space for yourself, friends, family, strangers yet to know and myself as we navigate enriched conversations on this journey.

NC 5: The Alternate Way To Health - Dr Sarah Farrant
Monday Jan 15, 2024
Monday Jan 15, 2024
“We’ll teach them the illusion until they are ready for the truth.” Buddha
“Health is not about how you feel, it’s about how you function”. Dr Sarah Farrant.
There are pivotal moments in life where you can recall an experience or insight that creates a significant shift and even profound expansion in who you are. This can be through a simple moment of presence, a sentence in a book or a conversation with an incredible Sol. For me, this conversation with Dr Sarah Farrant has been that and more. From the simple insight in the way I greet what I had termed “sickness”, but through the wisdom of Sarah, I now meet as a “health expression”.(Simple words that carry such potency and nutrient density that will invite you to step deeper into the Innate intelligence within.) To the incredible invitation of what is possible in all facets of life. I’ve re-listened to this conversation with Sarah countless times, as what she shares is simply revolutionary in its content and insight.
In this nutrient dense discussion, we delve into:
Journey in following the innate prompts to embrace an even more expansive life.
Uprooting to study Chiropractic in the USA.
Exploration of what health is with a redefining of the health categorisations of Allopathic, Alternative and the inclusion of the Alternate as a new expansion to health.
Importance of language in unpacking insights.
Adjustment vs Treatment
Demonstration of the innate wisdom of a health expression

For a lot of us, we are realising and releasing the illusion of who we are and embracing the less travelled road in our return to wholeness. At times the return to our authenticity seems to be impossible and beyond the veil of what we can see. Then, in moments of divine clarity, there are gifts that demonstrate what is potentially able to be embraced. For me Sarah is that gift. An incredible Sol that has worked intimately from the innate space, authentically expressing a life of beauty and patterning possibilities, inviting you to live an inspired life.

NC 4: The Inner Gardener - Melissa Wright
Monday Jan 08, 2024
Monday Jan 08, 2024
“But I’m nobody” was the first response I had from Melissa after I reached out to record a Nutritious Conversation with her. For me, the thought of sitting down for a chat with this incredible Sol was not about what commercial or ordained offering she had, but the absolute joy I felt at the thought of delving into a wonderful chin wag with her. Melissa is as authentic as they come. She is courageous, humble, expansive, heart lead, humorous and just an awesome Sol to be in the company of. I’ve had the honour of being on the sidelines for part of her journey and have seen the incredible vulnerability and sovereign nature she operates her inner garden from. I so loved our chat and the permission she gave herself to be all in life, oozes through this discussion. You’re in for a treat and give yourself permission to be all in with your life.

NC 3: Vitality and the Fast Track 2 Health - Karen Creighton
Monday Jan 01, 2024
Monday Jan 01, 2024
Natural Health Practitioner and Medical Intuitive – Karen Creighton.
“I need chicken” was what Karen said to her husband when her “holistic” health focus didn’t align with her innate wisdom and physiological needs. Over twenty years of training, conditioning, practicing and teaching sat behind this challenging decision to move away from her plant based choices.
For a lot of us, when our beliefs and conditionings form our identity and our whole life is built around this, it becomes very challenging to question and step into the unknown. Change most times only occurs when maintaining the status quo is more painful than the perceived pain of letting go of these embodied patterns. Karen is a gorgeous example of embracing curiosity, challenging beliefs and passionately sharing the fruits of her courage with the world around her. It was such an honour to connect in with Karen and share a beautiful nutritious conversation.
Topics discussed include Karen’s health practitioner journey in London, move to and setting up Vital Health business in NZ, embracing of always being willing to learn, detox, weight loss, chronic fatigue, menopause, quantum realm just to name a few. She is an incredible Sol who has such wisdom to share. I’d encourage anyone wanting to claim their health power back to connect in with Karen.
Further contact with Karen can be made through her website:https://www.vitalityhealth.co.nz/

NC 2: ”Do you want to be brave with me?” - Chad Dobson
Monday Dec 25, 2023
Monday Dec 25, 2023
“Do you want to be brave with me?” – These were the words Chad had flow into his heart and mind, when his incredible wife Erin, followed her innate direction, calling on her to have another child after the passing of their young son Noah. She didn’t utter those words but the energy and deep connection they had resonated into what Chad experienced as an invitation for him to step courageously forward into life. This conversation is a beautiful insight into the incredible Sol that Chad is and the wisdoms he has embodied to bring an inspiring presence in this world. Humility and love incarnate is what comes to mind when I think about Chad and the realness at which he interprets and indulges in life is pure and soulful.
We delve into many areas including: relationships, communications, meditations, offence/defence living, as well as touching on his creation of the group “Help Me stand” a support space in Newcastle for bereaved Dads.
Absolutely loved this chat and I’m sure you will be incredible impacted by this nutrient rich conversation.
Big Luv.
Duncan

NC 1: Revealing the Wise Woman - Lynley Erin Rice
Monday Dec 18, 2023
Monday Dec 18, 2023
I couldn’t be happier than to have the honour of launching Nutritious Conversations with such an incredible woman and dear friend Lynley Erin Rice. Lynley’s courage to step into the incredible woman that she is, through many of her life’s experiences, has and is creating such a ripple effect on the world she touches. Having been a drummer in a rock band that fronted for Iron Maiden, after winning Battle of the Bands, to the experience of her first child’s birth, and the intervention, trauma and post-natal depression that she experienced. Then her calling back of her innate wisdom through courage, connection and self-love to heal and birth her second child at home. through to delving into the Maid, Mother, Maga and Crone aspects of womanhood and exploring the transition from Mother to Maga as well as the health expression of Peri-Menopause. It’s a gorgeous conversation that vamps up to some beautiful pearls of wisdom being dropped.

Podcast Intent:For me, the intent for these recordings is to be an unhomogenised and unpasteurised conversation that intimately aligns with real life. The falling over words, the poise and challenge in moments to understand how to verbalise what’s wanting to come forward, I see, is part of the realness of nutrient dense conversations. So, with that, I have to say I’m embracing and enjoying watching my own clunkiness as I explore my expression through this space. I hope you too hold space for yourself, friends, family, strangers yet to know and myself as we navigate enriched conversations on this journey.
