The Balancer

In this episode of Stockyard Sessions, Emily Mosely sits down with Laura Kiel, a holistic nutritionist, Pilates instructor, speaker and educator based in Central West New South Wales. Through her business, Balance Inside and Out, Laura works with clients on sustainable, lifelong habits rather than quick fixes, and speaks regularly on the connection between human health, the food we eat, the land it's grown on, and the animals at the centre of our farming systems. The conversation covers Laura's path from a childhood on the land near Manildra to studying nutrition in Canberra, the moment that first connected animal health, land health and human health for her, and why she believes progress matters more than perfection when it comes to food and wellbeing. Laura also shares her thoughts on the gut-brain axis, how she helps farmers navigate the pressures of a busy period on-farm such as harvest, and the one piece of advice she leaves every listener with.
