Sophie Collins

This episode is so full of practical tips to up-level your wellbeing, I am so excited to share it with you!In this episode I get to sit down with Sophie Collins, a dear friend, wife, mother to two beautiful young boys and Co-Founder of One Wednesday. Sophie is so committed to her health & wellbeing and it's contagious! She is obsessed with feeling her best, and has cultivated such beautiful ritual around this in her life. Wee talk about morning routine, meditation, movement, go-to supplements and easy diagnostic tests you can run to get your body functioning optimally.Sophie and I share a belief that loving our bodies and nourishing doesn't have to involve HUGE shifts to our daily lives - true wellbeing and optimal health can be, and I would argue the most impactful ones are, the small and steady "bite sized" changes and commitments to bettering your health and therefore your life.Find Sophie on Instagram and her brand One WednesdayHere's what Sophie's morning routine currently looks like:Wake at 5:302 Seed probiotic capsules (best on an empty stomach) Discount Code Sophie15MeditationMovementCollagen CoffeeListen to a PodcastHang with babiesSupplements we Love:Seed (see above for discount code)Vitamin C & DBiotinDesigns for Health HSN CompleteBend Beauty Renew + Protect FERRAPRO IronMovement we Love:Melissa Wood HealthHouse of a la LigneAuthors we Love:Michelle KambolisSara BlondinIf you enjoyed this episode please share it with someone you love, rate, or leave a review!

In the upcoming period, every second Friday, Perdu will be broadcasting  excerpts of around fifteen minutes, taken from our archives of our most  thought-provoking, lingering evening programs. In this edition, you’ll  be hearing a reading by Sophie Collins from the first evening in the series Belonging in the Mess, which took place on the 18th of May 2018 and was titled A world we lose by waking up in sanity. The evening approached the topic of mental health from an open perspective, looking  at the way that patterns of affects that are usually labelled as  abnormal can provide us with fruitful perspectives on the world that  they emerged from. On this evening, Sophie Collins spoke about the affect of shame and its interwovenness with topics like self-help,  trauma and self-expression. A trigger warning for this episode: Sophie Collins discusses sexual assault.
