In this Work It Like a Mum episode, we chat with Wilma MacDonald, a nutrition therapist who shares her expertise and tips on 'how to manage stress through diet and lifestyle'. Wilma, who transitioned from a career in banking to nutrition after experiencing the toll stress had on her own health, now supports women—especially mothers and those in corporate roles—to regain their energy, manage stress, and reconnect with their well-being.

What we discuss in this episode:

  • The importance of stress in our lives and when it becomes harmful
  • How cortisol (the stress hormone) affects our bodies and how we can manage it
  • Why stress is a silent contributor to many physical and mental health problems in mothers
  • The "zebra analogy"—how humans often don't complete the stress cycle and the impact on our health
  • Practical tips for managing stress through diet, exercise, and lifestyle choices
  • How Wilma uses nutrition to help women re-balance their stress levels and reclaim their energy
  • The role of intentional stress management in overall wellness

Key Takeaways:

  • Know your stress response: Recognise when you're in fight or flight mode and take steps to “complete the cycle.”
  • Mind your diet: Nutrient-rich foods can support your body’s natural stress response.
  • Exercise intentionally: Activities like boxing or yoga can help release stored stress and reset your system.
  • Support yourself: Managing stress is a journey—take small steps, find what works for you, and give yourself grace.

Wilma’s personal journey is a powerful reminder that taking care of our mental and physical health doesn’t have to be overwhelming—it’s about balance, awareness, and the right support.
