Craig joined my Let’s Talk Thyroid earlier this year and has been such a positive and inspiring member of the group, sharing his experiences as he has made significant changes to his thyroid-friendly lifestyle! Craig lives in South Wales with his partner Craig, close to his son Josh and loves spending time with them and his friends doing all the ‘normal’ things (cooking, eating out, hanging out with friends). He is a self-proclaimed eternal student which has helped him enormously on his quest for knowledge in his thyroid journey so far!

I hope Craig’s story deeply encourages you. 

Some of the topics covered in this conversation include:

• Symptoms Craig started noticing (or noticed in retrospect)
• Diagnosis
• The importance of being ‘fascinated’ with your health
• Craig’s food journey – elimination, intolerance testing and making changes
• The importance of support systems
• Changes to work/life balance
• Using the weekends to prepare for the week ahead
• Finding acceptance and forgiveness
• Craig’s wisdom for other thyroid patients
• Craig’s questions for me:
  • Have you done a show on essential oils? (Yes #21 and #82)
  • What is the something you wish you didn’t do?
  • Will you be bringing out an audiobook version of your book?
