Reflections on a New Year, New Lessons & Fresh Beginnings
by Kay Kaur
Welcome 2025! As I return to clinic this week and step into 2025, I wanted to take a moment to share some personal reflections, lessons, and exciting updates with you. This past year has been a whirlwind—professionally, I’ve had an incredibly rewarding year running a busy clinic and supporting so many of you on your health journeys. But personally, it’s also been another year of significant growth and recalibration for me. Whilst I love to continue to evolve and learn – employing actionable changes were super rewarding for me!
When Life Reminds You to Slow Down.
Early last year, I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis, another autoimmune condition. Despite my knowledge as a nutritionist and health coach, this was a humbling reminder that life happens—and it doesn’t discriminate irrespective of your role.
Following lockdown – I had spent years pouring my energy into my work and family, thinking I had everything balanced because I was in remission with my lupus and felt great making progress in my goals. But the reality was, I wasn’t truly listening to my body. I was over-committing, running on autopilot, and neglecting some of the core principles I help my clients prioritise every day:
Functional Testing: Why It Matters.
One of the biggest lessons (and appreciations) from my diagnosis was the importance of functional testing. Despite having “normal” TSH levels on standard blood tests, I was experiencing full-blown symptoms that couldn’t be ignored for months prior to investing in testing. Symptoms included:
Why the New Year Feels Different.
This year, I’m entering January with optimism, not in the form of resolutions, but with lessons learned. I’ve embraced the idea of slowing down, creating space for rest, and giving myself permission to say “no” to things that don’t serve my well-being.
I encourage you to join me in taking a gentler, more compassionate approach to your goals. Instead of rigid plans, focus on nourishing yourself with wholesome food, cultivating supportive relationships, and moving through life at a sustainable pace.

Why I always advocate whole foods over starvation diets.
Did you know that eating a variety of whole foods can directly reduce inflammation and improve gut health? Research shows that polyphenols in plant foods, such as berries and spices, support the gut microbiome, which plays a vital role in regulating the immune system and reducing inflammation. (Study: Frontiers in Nutrition, 2023)
So, as we toast to 2025, remember that true health isn’t about quick fixes. It’s about consistently nourishing your body, mind, and soul with the care and attention you deserve.
Thank you for allowing me to be part of your health journey this past year. I’m excited about the opportunities and possibilities that lie ahead and look forward to supporting you in reaching your health goals this year.
With love, light, gratitude, and optimism,
