35. RECLAIMING HEALTH IN MODERN DAY MOTHERHOOD WITH KATIE GALVIN

Generational conditioning is impacting our physical health as mothers, this episode sheds light on the importance of supporting our feminine physiology to reclaim health in the chaos of modern day motherhood.

I'm joined by Katie Galvin who is a functional diagnostic nutritional practitioner. Katie walks us through reclaiming vibrant health in motherhood through an ancestral and holistic lens of functional nutrition and nervous system regulation.

We discuss how generational conditioning and conventional medicine is failing moms and some controversies around antidepressants, including why postpartum anxiety and depression need to be viewed as a symptom not simply a mental health diagnosis.

As two former overachievers and recovering people pleasers, Katie and I discuss our shared experience of how good girl conditioning has impacted our physical health and why we've placed nervous system health as top of mind.

Katie gives us tangible tips to start reclaiming our health yesterday including simple nutrient dense foods to swap out some modern day trends.

Katie is on a mission to challenge the normalization of symptoms and raise the bar for optimal health for mothers.

Taking care of ourselves as moms is not only essential for our own well-being but for the future generation we are raising. 

Meet Katie:

Katie Galvin is a former speech therapist turned postpartum doula and functional diagnostic nutritional practitioner. She specializes in postpartum health, but loves all things women’s health and hormones! She’s a wife, and homeschooling momma of two. Katie was diagnosed with postpartum anxiety and depression after having her daughter in 2016. After struggling with severe physical symptoms and mental health, she struggled to find answers and was able old that medication and therapy was her only option. Medications did not help her symptoms, and she felt that conventional medicine had completely failed her as a mom. She dove head first into the holistic health space and learned how to heal her body with functional nutrition and lifestyle strategies. Katie went on to become a certified functional practitioner and now helps other moms identify their root causes so they can self-heal and experience vibrant health in motherhood.

About the Podcast

REWILD + FREE
Stirring good kinda trouble. This is a podcast where conscious entrepreneurship and personal exploration meets decolonization, nervous system healing, and cyclical living
What happens when you stop trying to fit neatly into this world?
When you unbecome everything you were told to be?
When you breathe nuance into a world obsessed with the binary?
When you stop chasing linear success and remember the power of the cyclical, the seasonal—the way we were always meant to be?

This is REWILD + FREE.

Not a blueprint. But an invitation.

To unmask. To unravel. To break free—not just from survival, but from the deep conditioning that keeps us disconnected. From each other. From our bodies. From the earth.

In all facets of life—motherhood, womanhood, conscious business, spirituality.

These are the conversations social media can’t hold space for. The ones that don’t fit into bite-sized posts or neat little soundbites. The messy, layered, deeply human ones. A mix of raw personal musings and soul-stirring interviews with those willing to go beyond the surface.

I’m Nicole Pasveer—mother, truth-seeker, activator. Someone who spent years untangling herself from stories that were never hers to hold. I’ve done the people-pleasing, the perfectionism, the fitting into boxes too small for me. I know what it feels like to wake up and realize—this isn’t who I am.

So here we are.

Stirring good kinda trouble.

Having the conversations that matter—healing, liberation, decolonization, reimagining how we live, work, and lead. Not with easy answers, but with big, bold, sometimes impossible-to-answer questions.

Where nuance, reclamation, and reimagination collide

Let’s rewild and remember. Together.
