    Episode 180: Still Thinking Like a Dieter? | What Creates Lasting Healthy Eating?

    Many women stop dieting long before they stop thinking like a dieter. The food rules may be gone, but the thoughts often remain: "I've been good today." "I'll start again tomorrow." "I shouldn't have eaten that." In this episode of the Eating for You Podcast, I explore why letting go of restrictions can feel uncomfortable and why lasting healthy eating isn't about finding better food rules—it's about learning to understand yourself. Instead of replacing one eating plan with another, you'll discover why reflection, curiosity and mindful eating create confidence that lasts far beyond any diet. In this episode you'll learn: Why giving up food rules can feel unsettling How decades of dieting continue to influence your thinking The difference between restriction and reflection Why confidence grows from understanding yourself—not controlling yourself How mindful eating becomes "the gift that keeps on giving" If you've ever wondered: "If I stop dieting, how will I know what to eat?" this episode is for you.

    Episode 179: How Nasreen Stopped Starting Over With Food

    Many women know what healthy eating looks like. The struggle isn't nutrition knowledge. It's getting stuck in the cycle of "I'll start tomorrow." This week I'm joined by my client, Nasreen, who shares her honest journey from years of gaining and losing the same 10 kilograms, emotional eating, and feeling trapped by all-or-nothing thinking, to developing a calmer, more confident relationship with food. Rather than following another restrictive eating plan, Nasreen discovered how mindful eating, understanding her personal drivers for eating, and making small personalised changes transformed not only her eating habits but also her sleep, digestion, energy and confidence. In this conversation we discuss: • Why restriction made her eat more, not less • The hidden cost of "I'll start tomorrow" thinking • How understanding your personal drivers for eating changes everything • Why healthy eating is about more than knowing nutrition • The surprising changes in her relationship with chocolate • How improving self-care reduced emotional eating • The health improvements she experienced, including better sleep, digestion and fewer hot flushes • Why mindful eating continues to evolve long after the program finishes If you've ever wondered why you know what to eat but still struggle to do it, this episode will remind you that you're not lacking willpower—you may simply need a different approach.

    Episode 178: How to Change Your Eating Habits: Pause Before You Eat

    Changing your eating habits often sounds simple. Eat less chocolate.Stop snacking.Be more disciplined. But what if the real reason your eating habits haven't changed has nothing to do with knowing what to eat? In this episode of the Eating for You Podcast, I explore one of the biggest mistakes women make when trying to eat healthier—they focus on changing the food before understanding why they're eating. You'll discover why becoming curious about your eating habits is often more powerful than adding another rule, and why two women with the same eating habit may need completely different solutions. I also share a simple practice that my clients love! In this episode you'll learn: • Why healthy eating isn't just about food choices • How automatic eating habits develop • Why asking "Why am I eating right now?" can uncover important patterns • Common reasons women eat when they're not physically hungry • Why awareness is only the first step—and why changing habits often requires personalised support If you've ever wondered why you keep returning to the same eating habits despite knowing what you "should" be doing, this episode will help you look beyond food and begin understanding what's really driving your eating.

    Episode 177: Why You Keep Starting and Stopping Healthy Eating

    This week we're exploring one of the biggest reasons healthy eating feels so difficult—not because you don't know what to eat, but because of the way you're thinking about change. Have you ever told yourself: • I'll start on Monday. • I've already blown it. • I may as well eat whatever I want today and begin again tomorrow. You're not alone. For many women, all-or-nothing thinking creates a cycle of starting, stopping and constantly trying to "get back on track." In this episode I explain why healthy eating isn't about being perfect. It's about staying connected to yourself—even after the piece of cake, the busy week or the missed walk. You'll discover: • what all-or-nothing thinking really looks like • why "I'll start tomorrow" often keeps you stuck • how dieting creates "last chance eating" • why one choice never ruins your day • how mindful eating helps you build lasting habits without another diet. If you're tired of starting over, this episode offers a gentler, more sustainable way forward.

    Episode 176: Is your digestion trying to tell you something?

    What is your digestion trying to tell you? When we think about digestion, we often think about bloating, reflux or stomach discomfort. But what if digestion was about much more than your gut? In this episode, Chinese Medicine practitioner Tania Grasseschi and I explore how digestion influences our energy, emotions, eating habits and ability to nourish ourselves. You'll learn why stress and rushing through meals can affect digestion, how meal timing and mindful eating support overall health, and why Chinese Medicine views digestion as the foundation for both physical and emotional wellbeing. Together, Tania and I discuss: • Why digestion is about much more than breaking down food • How stress and multitasking affect healthy digestion • Why regular meals and mindful eating matter • The role of meal timing and your body's natural rhythms • Foods and cooking methods that support digestion • Why nourishment extends beyond food to include rest, relationships, creativity and the five senses • Practical ways women can care for themselves while continuing to care for others This conversation is especially relevant for women over 40 looking for a sustainable approach to healthy eating that works with their body—not against it.

    Episode 175: How Much Protein Do I Need?

    Protein is everywhere right now. We're being encouraged to prioritise protein at every meal, choose high-protein snacks and aim for daily targets that can sometimes require protein powders, bars and supplements to achieve. But how much protein do you actually need? In this episode I explore why protein is important for health and maintaining muscle as we age—but also why health, strength and healthy ageing are about much more than one nutrient. You'll discover: What influences your individual protein needsWhy more protein isn't always betterWhat else your body needs to maintain and build muscleThe questions to ask before chasing a protein targetWhether prioritising protein could be pushing other nourishing foods off your plateWhy protein may be becoming the latest food ruleWhat to consider before relying on protein powders, bars and supplementsWhy personalised nutrition advice considers your health, activity, goals and whole eating pattern Protein is important. But health is bigger than protein, and nourishment is bigger than nutrients. Tune in and consider: what are you hoping more protein will help you achieve?
