In this episode of What’s My Body Telling Me?, Dr. Anthea Todd takes you on a deep dive into one of the most common (but least understood) symptoms: bloating.

If you’ve ever felt six months pregnant after a meal, struggled with “IBS,” or been told your gut symptoms are normal — this conversation will shift everything.

Dr. Anthea breaks down bloating through three key lenses:
Medical – When to seek urgent help and what red flags to never ignore
Functional – Why bloating often stems from nutrient depletion, stress, or digestive slowdown
Energetic – How emotional repression and boundary issues can show up in the gut

You’ll also learn:

• What happens when digestion becomes a “broken conveyor belt”
  
  
• Why stress literally shuts down stomach acid (and leads to protein fermentation)
  
  
• How to use the “Four Fundamentals” (nervous system, metabolism, nutrients, blood sugar) to restore gut health
  
  
• When gluten might not be the issue — and what to check instead
  
  
• What to test (and what not to waste money on)

This is your body’s way of saying “I need support.” Not panic. Not protocols. Just a return to listening, nourishment, and trust.

Amna is a psychotherapist and mum who spent years exhausted, bloated, losing hair, and barely making it through the day—only to be told she was “fine” because her bloodwork fell within range.

She was offered pills, weight-loss drugs, and even referrals to psychotherapists (yes, while being one herself)… but no one would really listen.

Until she stopped outsourcing her health and started listening to her body.

🎙 In this episode, we talk about:
✔ What happens when symptoms are dismissed because labs are “normal”
✔ The hidden costs of gaslighting and weight stigma in medicine
✔ Why Amna refused to be labelled and chose empowerment over diagnosis
✔ Her integrative path through naturopathy, gut healing, and movement
✔ A powerful reframe around investing in your own health

This one is a must-listen if you’ve ever been told “you’re fine” when you’re not. 🎧 Listen now.

Ever feel stuck—like you're looping through the same thoughts, the same patterns, and no matter what you do, you just can't break free? You’re not alone. In this episode of What’s My Body Telling Me?, Dr Anthea Todd sits down with clinical psychologist and author Dr Emily Musgrove, known for her work on The Imperfects podcast and her new book Unstuck.

Together, Dr Anthea and Dr Emily unpack what it really means to feel immobilised—by stress, burnout, anxiety, and even physical symptoms—and why the key to moving forward might be found in your body, not your mind. In a powerful moment, Emily even helps Anthea work through one of her own recurring thought patterns live, making this conversation as personal as it is practical.

From the invisible grip of identity-driven stories like “I’m not enough,” to the healing potential of embodiment, this episode offers a compassionate and actionable path forward. You’ll also learn how to raise emotionally attuned children, embrace small movements as change catalysts, and rewrite your internal narrative through values-driven action.

Whether you're a high achiever, people pleaser, or just feeling stuck in your own life, this episode is a powerful invitation to reconnect with your body—and finally move.
