BONUS: Should we pay attention to calories?

In this bonus episode, I’m talking all about calories and if we should pay any attention to calories at all.

We see calories noted on everything so should we just ignore it completely and think calories are complete BS or are they actually something we want to pay attention to?

Should we track them and create a calorie deficit to reduce body fat? Are we eating too many calories?

Ep 305: Ultimate guide to weight loss

In this episode, I’m giving you the ultimate guide to weight loss and breaking down the 5 key areas you need to focus on to make fat loss inevitable.

With so much conflicting information out there, I’ve created this episode to bring together all my thoughts and strategies in one place. Whether you're just starting your journey or have tried everything, this guide will help you gain clarity on what shifting your body composition truly requires—and how to make that decision with confidence.

Change always involves effort, and when it comes to weight loss, mindset is just as important as external habit changes for most people. The path to weight loss depends on your personal history, what you’ve tried before, and how much weight you’d like to release.

Whether your goal is to lose 10 pounds or 10 stone, the approach will vary, but these core components are essential no matter what.

This episode is your ULTIMATE holistic guide to weight loss—one that considers both body and mind!

Ep 303: Summer glow basics & reminders! (How to become your radiant energised self this summer)

How do you become your most radiant energised self this summer? Where do you get that summer glow from? And I can tell you it's not from a five-day juice cleanse. 

In this podcast episode, I'm going to share with you some of the summer glow basics.

This time of year can feel really hectic. Summer is often filled with a lot of busyness like weddings and holidays. It can also be really busy for some people as well, especially if you are a parent and are navigating school holidays and time off and work. All this busyness often means that it’s also a time when people are most likely to crash diet, do a juice cleanse or suddenly start going to the gym every day of the week to shape up for their bikini.

There is often an attitude of ‘sack it, what's the point? I'm just going to eat ice cream. I'll start again in September or I'll start again when the kids go back or I can't look after my health right now’

If that's going on in the back of your brain, I just want to call a bit of BS to that because this isn't about being on or off something. You don't need to do a juice cleanse in order to go into a bikini. If you need a new size bikini just buy one or just don't wear a bikini. Do whatever you want. It’s your body.

Remember that confidence is a practice. Confidence doesn't come from body size. Confidence comes from beliefs. It comes from something that we internally practice. It doesn't come from the label on your jeans or the label on your bikini. It comes from within you.

So, there can be a lot going on in the summer and so in this episode, I want cut through the crap and share with you some of the things to focus on, some of the things that I will be focusing on and give you a couple of essential reminders.

Ep 302: The most important thing you need to do to sort out hormones, belly and mood

In this episode, I am going to be giving you a really big dose of clarity, a gentle kick up the butt now that we are halfway through the year.

I love reflecting on the six months that have gone past and the six months ahead, so I want to encourage you to take some time to think about what you want for the next six months as we dive into this episode.

So, what is the most important thing that you need to know and do in order to sort out your hormones, to create a happier and flatter belly, to improve your mood, to have more glowing radiant skin, to have more energy and to become that really well healthy radiant kick ass woman that feels like your life and your body and your health is a springboard for the rest of your life that you're not limited by?

Your body and health propel you towards the life you want to live. Whatever it is that you want to do, your body is the platform and springboard for all of those things.

Whether that's your career, parenting, in social justice, house renovations, traveling the world, retraining, starting a new career; all these things require you to be well. 

We are in the age of information, so you can Google a symptom, how to get rid of it, how to deal with it, why you have it, what supplements might help, etc and you can get tons of information. 

But we are not lacking in information, we actually have an abundance to the point of often where that feels overwhelming. What you need is clarity and structure in order to see massive progress and make massive results.

Ep 301: Demystifying probiotics, prebiotics & what you need for a healthy gut

In this episode, we're diving into gut health and looking kind of at a couple of basics - Probiotics, prebiotics, postbiotics and synbiotics which is something that you might have seen on the internet.

I want to demystify this for you so that you know what that is, if it can help, and what is actually going to help your gut health because gut health is a foundation of hormonal health and healthy periods and healthy menopause and fertility.

Gut health is the foundation of mental health, of sleep, of glowing skin, it plays a role in body composition, energy production, your immune system and autoimmune conditions.

Ep 299: The beliefs that are holding you back

In this episode, we are looking at beliefs because as a Nutritionist and Coach, I've worked with loads of people over the years and I spend the majority of my time with clients looking at what actions they can take, what tweaks can we make, what habits can we shift, what foods can we add in, etc. - We create a personalised plan of action.

But taking the right kind of healing, wonderful actions that you need in order to be your most radiant, confident, energized, infused, calm, peaceful, happy self actually requires certain beliefs in order to take that action. This is a thing that people often miss.

They blame themselves because they just can't stop eating the sugar and bread or they can't seem to meditate and they just blame the fact that they're not taking the “right” actions. 

Sometimes you're not taking the right actions because you don't know what they are (and if that's the case you need to book your Well Woman Audit).

Or sometimes you know what the right action is but you are still not able to do it which is where it goes deeper and we need to review your beliefs.

Ep 298: Which imbalance do you have? The top 5 root causes I see with clients

Let's talk about what could be going on in your body. I'm a big fan of understanding your root cause. That's why I do what I do as a Holistic Nutritionist and Coach.

The reason that I talk about figuring out your root cause and asking why is because I know in my own health journey (and in the countless women that I've helped) one of the biggest obstacles is for you making progress and being that well, radiant, energised version, woman of yourself is often that you don't actually understand what's going on and when you don't understand what's going on, you don't feel empowered.

You feel stuck and hopeless and think there is no point in doing anything. Not having clarity will keep you stuck. It will also keep you feeling demotivated and uninspired.

In this episode, we're going to be looking at what imbalances you have and the top five root causes I see with clients is because I want you to start thinking about what is at the root of your symptoms whether that’s low energy, anxiety, awful periods, sluggishness, skin issues, irregularities in your period, an autoimmune condition. What could be the root causes?

When you start to understand the root causes, you gain clarity. When you gain clarity, you gain motivation and feel inspired, and you feel really hopeful.

These are the feelings that help you create change and take consistent action.

Ep 297: The secret to stopping ‘bad’ eating habits once and for all

What are the secrets to stopping bad eating habits once and for all? That's what we're looking at in this episode.

I don't want you to have this ‘food drama’ going on where it's good food, bad food, on a wagon, off a wagon, where you are spiraling into a pit and you're feeling really guilty about what you eat. This kind of food obsession/focus is very draining. 

If you often think things like ‘I've been so good all week and I just ruined it by eating this’ or ‘why can't I stop eating sugar or bread’ this episode is for you.

I want you to enjoy your food, I want you to find pleasure in food, maybe even comfort in food. I personally do find comfort in food sometimes and that's okay! 

I don't want your relationship with food to drain your energy. Your relationship with food can have joy and creativity if you want it to, but it also needs to be kind of neutral. - The food that you eat doesn't mean anything about who you are or have any say in your worth or your value as a person but so often that's what we tie this to. 

“I've eaten bad food therefore I'm a bad person” - This kind of thinking needs to stop otherwise you're really going to struggle to make progress.

In this episode, I'm going to be sharing four secrets to stopping these bad eating habits or to stop spiraling into that ‘on and off / good and bad’ trajectory that so many of us are on.
