Welcome!

Thank you so much for agreeing to be a guest on Nourish, Heal & Rise. I'm genuinely looking forward to our conversation.

I know your time is valuable, and I truly appreciate you saying yes.

This page has everything you need to help you feel prepared, relaxed and confident before we record. Please take a few minutes to read through it before our conversation.

If you have any questions at all before we meet, simply reply to any of my emails and I'll be happy to help.

Our Mission

Nourish, Heal & Rise was created to help women better understand their health through evidence-based, practical conversations.

Every week we explore topics that matter to women navigating midlife and beyond - from inflammation, hormones and metabolism through to movement, mental health, nutrition, sleep, pain, longevity and living well.

My hope is that every listener finishes an episode feeling more informed, more empowered and with practical strategies they can start using immediately.

By joining me on the podcast, you're helping women realise they're not alone - and that there are answers, solutions and reasons for hope.

Thank you for being part of that mission.

Meet Your Host

 Hi, I'm Dr Andrea Robertson.

I'm an Osteopath, Naturopath and Nutritionist with a passion for helping women understand the underlying drivers of their symptoms, not simply manage them.

After my own experiences with burnout, chronic inflammation and navigating the complexities of women's health, I became committed to helping women move beyond quick fixes and discover what truly creates lasting health.

Through my clinic, online programs, speaking, education and now this podcast, my goal is always the same:

To simplify the science and help women feel confident in understanding their own bodies.

What to Expect

Our conversation will be relaxed, natural and conversational.

This isn't about perfect answers or rehearsed responses.

Think of it as two people sitting down for an interesting conversation that just happens to be filmed and recorded.

Before we begin recording we'll spend a few minutes making sure your microphone, camera and internet connection are all working well.

If you lose your train of thought, want to start an answer again or need a moment to think, that's absolutely fine.

Podcast editing is wonderful!

We'll simply pause, take a breath and continue.

There is absolutely no expectation that you'll get everything perfect the first time.

Before We Meet

We'll be recording using Descript Rooms.

Please use the recording link included in your booking confirmation email.

No software download is required.

For the smoothest experience, I recommend:

• Joining from a computer (Descript does not work on a phone or tablet).
• Using Google Chrome.
• Joining approximately five minutes before our scheduled start time.
• Wearing headphones or earbuds if possible.
• Setting up with natural light in front of you, or a ring light etc. 

What we will chat about

I do have a rough guide of what we will cover during the conversation, and if there is anything you would prefer NOT to share, just let me know. We can always edit parts out later as well if need be. 

1. Mostly I would like to start by asking you to tell me about you. ie: Tell us a little about you – ie first name, work, age etc.
2. Then I may ask why did you decide to join my program?
3. I would then love to share my clinical reasoning regarding your case. So, my thought processes, the treatment plan we provided, any supplements we suggested etc. 
4. Then I'd like to chat about how you are feeling now, compared to when you started the program. ie, the outcomes you got from doing the program. 
5. I may also also - Did you have any reservations, hesitations or fears about joining my program?
6. And - What was your favourite thing about doing this program?
7. And - What would you say to anyone who wants to do this program.

During the Recording

Please don't worry if:

• You lose your train of thought.

• You need to restart an answer.

• Your dog barks.

• Your phone rings.

• You cough or sneeze.

• You need a sip of water.

We'll simply pause and continue.

Almost everything can be edited afterwards.

After We Record

Once we've finished recording, my team and I will edit the episode and prepare it for release.

When your episode is scheduled you'll receive:

• Your release date

• Direct listening links

• Promotional graphics

• Social media assets

There is absolutely no obligation to share your episode.

However, if you do, it helps us reach more women who may benefit from the conversation.

Thank you

Thank you again for joining me on Nourish, Heal & Rise.

Our conversation may just be that thing that helps another wonderful women change her health and life for the better. 

I can't wait for our conversation.

See you soon,

Andrea x
