Georgie Spurling: In the face of adversity, just dance.

Hello and welcome to STATE OF MIND. I’m Grace Kingswell, I’m a Nutritional Therapist and Lifestyle Medicine Advocate and this is my series all about health, mental wellbeing, state of mind, the environment, creating sustainable practices and finding true connection with yourself, those around you and with nature.⁣

⁣
Today I’m talking to Georgie Spurling and we’re going deep into dealing with grief, loss, break ups, fitness and lifestyle.⁣

Georgie's journey to health began way back when she had a heart condition as a youngster and was told she’ never really be able to exercise. She completely disregarded her doctors and trained to be a PT and went hard for a few years dancing, exercising and going to multiple HIIT workouts.⁣
⁣
⁣
Unsurprisingly she struck burnout and chronic fatigue and, having been bedridden for 3 months, she began slowly to rebuild her strength but it a completely different way to how she’d gone about things before.⁣

More recently, Georgie has had a pretty tough time of it and life has definitely dealt her a rough hand. We talk about how she’s coped with the grief of losing one of her best fiends in a terrible accident, and suffering a breakup all in the space of a week.⁣

⁣
She’s a total inspiration and I hope you get a lot from this episode.⁣
