Catie Gett is a naturopath, author and founder of The Staple Store who has made a radical change to her mission. One day, a delivery drive of orders when the courier didn’t come, made her reckon with her younger self who wanted to have a big impact and change the world: This wasn’t changing the world, it was catering to a small group of people who could afford “the best”. In this conversation, Catie and I both share, what it’s meant to have to significantly pair back in our own lives for different reasons, and the gift that has come from finding ways to optimise creatively to do health in the most affordable, simple way possible. You’ll learn: The No.1 Skill that means you can eat nourishing foods, even living below the poverty line. The way Catie has transitioned to writing a cook book that includes white flour and sugar, when her ‘5 years ago self’ would have condemned those ingredients. The unexpected magic in remembering how simple food and life can be and how accessible the most important health-promoters are to everyone.The importance of voting with your dollar and buying the best quality produce and ingredients if you can - but the equal importance of relaxing into whatever the ‘best you can’ looks like, too. This show is for anyone who’s ever felt pressured to live beyond their means to “do things right” or who feels that they’re failing if they’re not doing ‘all the things’. Pull up a pair of head phones and a healing walk in nature and let’s actually change the world, in the different ways each of us can.
