The Female Performance Project Chloe Salter

I had a catch up with the lovely Wioletta, otherwise known as Coach Vee, who is an online coach who supports women in reaching their goals without restrictive diets and living a balanced lifestyle. Wioletta studied in psychodietetics and so is a great person to chat to on understanding the psychology behind our nutrition.



Wioletta and I discuss most importantly the problems of getting so hung up on the scale, and we have a good and honest chat about our own experiences with struggles as athletes and coaches, including losing menstrual cycles, disordered eating patterns and how we have made changes.



This is a great and honest coach to coach episode, and hopefully our chat will be useful for you!

In this episode, I spoke to Registered Nutritionist and CrossFit coach Nelly Koenig, who helps girls to eat more food to fuel their training and work on their relationship with food.



In a very open and honest episode, Nelly talks about how her experience with disordered eating habits and trying to chase a certain amount of leanness while also trying to perform in her sport made her lose the love for it. She talks about how she overcame these habits and has worked hard on her own relationship with food to enjoy her training again!



This is a hugely relatable episode and if you're struggling with any issues related to the above, I highly recommend that you take a listen!



You can find Nelly on her instagram @nellnutrition and her website here.

Today I am solo-casting and I am here to chat with you about how I lost my menstrual cycle for over 4 years and how I managed to get it back!



I will discuss the reasons I believe I lost my cycle, the mindset behind these, how it impacted my life and the action points which I took to bring it back.



Hopefully some of the action points discussed in here may help you if you are feeling alone in this, or are struggling to know where to start in the quest to understand how to start getting your cycle back.



Feel free to message me on our instagram @femaleperformanceproject if you have any questions!

Karima Adi (@caffeinated_curves) is here today to share her story, of how being diagnosed with a brain tumour at the age of 30 reshaped her narrative and forced her to think about her life, her body, and her self talk differently.



In this episode we talk about how to forge a strong mind, how to reshape our existence by changing the stories we tell ourselves about how we live our lives, and how this carries over to the relationship with our bodies and our health goals.



Is your mindset holding you back? This episode will help you to take some small actionable steps to make some changes!

I chat to Tom McClure, a sports nutritionist and endurance athlete who has taken on so many incredible feats such as running 13 marathons in 13 days!



We talk about how getting out of your comfort zone can help you achieve some amazing things, how important a strong mindset is for life as well as training, and how to make sure you're eating enough for your long endurance efforts!

Another episode you don't want to miss where I spoke to Irene Clark, a sports educator working with Athletics Ireland who is an expert in all things peri and post menopause. Check her out here @menopause_coach_irene and menopausecoach.ie



We had a great chat about the pressure to 'do it all', how we can be more at risk of over training, whether we should train fasted, how we should prioritise our recovery, HRT, and whether we can be stronger, fitter and faster post menopause than when we're in our 20's and 30's!
