E.176 Poo, Constipation and Bloating with We Are Regular

This week, I’m joined in my kitchen by the brilliant duo Holly Brooke and Joely Walker, the powerhouse founders behind We Are Regular — the gut health supplement brand that’s changing the way we talk about going to the loo.In this refreshingly honest conversation, we dive deep (pun intended) into all things digestion, bloating, and bowel movements. Together, we share our very real personal journeys with constipation, the silent struggle so many of us face but rarely talk about — and explore why women are disproportionately affected by gut issues compared to men.Holly and Joely share how their experiences led to the creation of We Are Regular, and how they’re breaking the stigma around poo talk by bringing humour, honesty, and science into the conversation. We also discuss the serious side of gut health — from the rising rates of bowel cancer in women to the importance of knowing your body and advocating for better awareness and prevention.If you’ve ever suffered in silence with bloating, IBS, or constipation — or just want to feel more comfortable talking about your gut health — this episode is for you. Expect laughs, lightbulb moments, and maybe even a little loo talk you didn’t know you needed.Topics we discuss:Why poo’ing is so important for overall healthConstipation — the worst thing on the planet (and our personal journeys with it)How alcohol affects your bowel movementsWhy women get more constipated than menWhy going on holiday often leads to constipationThoughts on laxatives and why natural options are betterWhat’s inside We Are Regular and how it worksOther ways to stay regular and support gut health naturallyLaunching We Are Regular and getting comfortable talking about poo in publicFunny poo stories and moments that keep it realSponsors:CALO - We are sponsored by CALO a food delivery service which provides nutritionist-approved, chef-made meals, delivered fresh, daily.
