Join Julie Riga as she sits down with Katie Hardie, founder of My Peak and a board certified holistic nutritionist and functional diagnostic nutrition practitioner, to explore how personalized health strategy, real data, and body awareness can transform not just athletic performance, but your entire approach to leadership, energy, and purpose driven success.
In This Episode:
✨ Why health is the true prerequisite for every form of performance, physical, corporate, or mental
✨ How energy management on a micro and macro level determines whether you thrive or burn out
✨ The power of awareness in catching the subtle signals your body is already giving you
✨ Why functional lab testing replaces guesswork with real, individualized knowledge
✨ How personalization, not generic advice, is the true key to lasting transformation
Key Takeaways:
📌 Peak performance is not just physical, it applies to your career, your relationships, and your mindset
📌 Blood sugar spikes and crashes create unstable energy that quietly drains performance over time
📌 Chronic, unmanaged stress eventually shows up as gut issues, poor sleep, and irritability
📌 Heart rate variability tracking gives high achievers real data on recovery and resilience
📌 Gut health is directly tied to mood, motivation, and focus through the vagus nerve connection
📌 A plan that works for one person can fail completely for another, because every body has different needs
📌 Common is not the same as normal, and settling for common symptoms keeps people from real health
