What happens when ancient wisdom meets modern health coaching? In this episode of Health Coach Radio, Erin Power sits down with Nidhi Pandya, a NAMA-certified advanced Ayurvedic practitioner, best-selling author of Your Body Already Knows, women's health coach, and speaker.

If you've ever thought Ayurveda was too "woo" or unscientific, this conversation may just shift your perspective. Erin and Nidhi dive into what Ayurveda really means—the science of life—and how its principles can deepen our understanding of nutrition, digestion, and how food actually behaves in the body.

Whether you're a coach steeped in macros and calories or simply curious about integrating timeless wisdom with evidence-based practice, this episode will expand the way you think about health and nutrition.
