    237 Rest IS NOT a reward - the “I’ll relax when…” lie and how to stop making rest conditional

    Do you ever catch yourself thinking, “I can relax later” - when work calms down, when the kids are older, when you’ve lost the weight, later when you’ve finally earned it? This episode is a loving call-out of that little lie (because yes, I tell myself it too). I’m unpacking why we keep living in that “waiting room” where ease and balance feel so close… but never quite arrive. And the truth is: if your peace is conditional on you achieving something first, you’ll spend your life chasing a finish line that keeps moving. I break down what’s really underneath the “I’ll relax when…” pattern and share simple, practical ways to start bridging the gap now. Because letting go doesn’t mean losing progress and rest is NOT a reward. Key takeaways Why “I’ll relax later” is more to do with safety than lack of time.Why if ease is conditional on weight loss / success / productivity, it stays out of reach.Why letting go doesn’t derail progress but usually speeds up the results you actually want.

    236 If “trying harder” built discipline and consistency you’d be there by now (instead - steal the secrets of my most successful clients)

    If you’ve ever looked at another woman’s progress and thought - “she’s just got more motivation than me”, then consider this episode your (gentle) wake up call. Because my most successful client aren’t asking how can I be more motivated, or relying on willpower or just trying harder than you. Instead, they’ve dumped control and perfectionism and let themselves do something too many of us resist: getting honest, getting curious and staying in the work even when it feels uncertain. In this episode, I’m breaking down the core traits I see in my most successful clients - the ones who create real change and feel amazing in their own skin. We talk about letting go of the “try harder” trap, and about how to build an inner world that continues to support you, even when motivation goes missing. These are the success habits that really work.

    235 When MORE self care strategies doesn’t equal better (the real reason you’re overthinking self care)

    You’re already trying to make self care a priority - the magnesium, the meditation, the phone-free wind down. And yet your brain still feels like an overthinking engine. So maybe you start looking for more self care strategies, a better morning routine, or telling yourself consistency will finally solve the problem. But in this episode I’m getting super clear on why the self care you’re already doing isn’t giving you the calm you’re craving - and won’t do until you make what you’re already doing work better. Yep - we’re flipping the script and looking at what’s really happening beneath the overthinking, the perfectionist tendencies and why even the best self care habits in the world won’t work at their best until you tackle that. I’ll show you how to shift from self care as control, to self care as connection - the kind that finally calms the noise and helps you feel safer in your own body again. So if you’ve ever wondered why bubble baths and meditation aren’t doing the trick…this one’s for you. We’ll cover: Why you don’t need MORE self care, you need to understand why what you’re already doing isn’t landing.Why self care which chases control is going to backfire.The underlying beliefs which block the benefits of any ritual JOIN ME INSIDE DONE WITH DIETS HERE NEXT STEPS: Share this episode with a friendFollow me on instagram

    234 Self Sabotage 101: When you know exactly what to do…but still don’t do it

    You already know exactly what you “should” be doing. You’ve read the books, listened to the podcasts, written the plans, and promised yourself this time will be different… and yet you still find yourself struggling with making habits stick, falling into all-or-nothing patterns, and wondering why procrastination and emotional eating keep creeping in. The worst thing? It feels like if it’s not a knowledge problem, it must be a YOU problem. But in this episode, I’m breaking down why that simply isn’t true, and what’s really going on beneath the “failed” behaviour change. We’ll dig into why the “bad habits” you’re desperate to get rid of are often just your system trying to keep you regulated. And how shame and self-blame shut down the curiosity you need for real habit change. If you’re tired of thinking, “I know what to do, why am I not doing it?”, this conversation will help you build self awareness, shift your mindset, and finally start changing the behaviours that are holding you back—so your new habits can actually stick. Key takeaways: Why striving for more motivation isn’t helping you right now.How procrastination, emotional eating, and skipping workouts often function as coping mechanisms, not character flaws.The role of dopamine in keeping you stuck in familiar habit loops.How to use curiosity (not control) to understand what your habits are really doing for you.A simple way to create space between trigger and response so you can choose new, more supportive behaviours.

    233 The diet CAN work but you need to do this first (how to regulate your nervous system for weight loss)

    I work with lots of women who want to lose weight - even though I talk about diet culture and the damage I believe it’s done to our relationship with food and our bodies. And my job is not to talk you out of that goal - but to help you create the right conditions to pursue it without burning out, resorting to emotional eating and ending up at square one yet again. In this episode, I’m sharing how to regulate your nervous system for weight loss - and why this (and not the meal plan you choose) will be the biggest predictor of whether your weight loss efforts will actually pay off…and be sustainable. We dive into what really happens when you’re already overwhelmed and then stack a restrictive plan on top of that, how stress affects weight loss, and how to optimise your nervous system to escape the binge restrict cycle. Key takeaways: Why your struggle with weight loss is not about willpower, but nervous system dysregulation.How low-grade stress keeps you stuck in the binge restrict, on–off diet cycle.The difference between your lower “survival” brain and your higher “reasoning” brain when it comes to food choices.How to identify the areas of your life that keep you chronically activated and drain your capacity for change.How to widen your window of tolerance to make sustainable weight loss truly possible.

    230 A new way to step into 2026: Choosing your North Star

    We’ve spent the last few weeks looking back at your year, celebrating what worked, learning from what didn’t, and creating space so your nervous system can actually support you as you step into something new. Now, in this final episode of 2025, it’s time to shift into possibility. Today we’re talking about why "new year, new you" culture completely misses the point - and why trying to fix yourself, overhaul your life, or force rigid resolutions is the exact thing that keeps derailing your progress. Instead, I’m showing you how to enter 2026 with a fresh approach rooted in self-trust, alignment, and the feeling you want to build your year around. This is about choosing a North Star for how you want to feel next year, and letting that guide your decisions, your rhythms, your routines, and your goals. It’s the simplest shift with the biggest impact. In this episode we explore: The unconscious “you’re not enough” messaging behind New Year cultureHow to create goals without pressure, perfectionism, or fix-it energyThe power of choosing a feeling as the foundation of your yearWhat alignment really looks like in daily lifeHow to build a year that reflects who you want to be, not who you think you should be Follow me on instagram or explore more on the website.
