We didn't finish on the gig.

But we can tap back into that.

But yeah, thank you so much for sharing so generously on the last podcast.

And I remembered when we finished, I just knew I wanted you to come straight back on because there were so many things that we didn't end up speaking about that I'm very excited to dive in today.

And now as well, you're sitting here pregnant with your first son, which is so beautiful and so exciting.

And what a lucky little boy, honestly.

So I definitely want to speak a lot around fertility, conception.

But I also, just to set the intention here, I really want to go beyond Ayurveda with you because I just feel like you're such a wealth of knowledge and embodiment.

And I think it's also really fun when we go beyond the modality you practice because you're more than Ayurveda.

So what's been something that you've been super grateful that you have built strength or intuitive connection within your body now that you're moving into pregnancy?

I feel like everything gets highlighted or amplified when you go through a big either life transition or your body moves through a big transition.

So what's something that you look back and you're like, I'm so glad I've implemented that in my life?

Liberating.

That energy and like that learning through that is the most important.

I actually have a few friends that maybe they were dealing with, yeah, some disordered eating before pregnancy or had like dairy intolerances or gluten intolerances or yeah, a lot of like...

complicated relationships with their body and through pregnancy and through having a baby that was all released that's obviously not everyone's story but I've just found that I that was very exciting to me yeah but yeah like being like I don't care about gluten anymore I don't need to worry about that anymore I don't think about my body in that way and just anything that means that you can become more free or more liberated how amazing yeah

Yeah.

Chaska, this, look, it wasn't because I got pregnant.

It was just because I went from like very disordered eating.

And I remember when my clothes started not fitting.
