    Ep. 26 Doing HARD things!

    This week I’m talking about why real progress comes from doing the hard things, especially when you don’t feel like it. Fat loss and muscle building are meant to feel uncomfortable at times. Easy choices now often lead to staying stuck later. You can’t be frustrated by results if you’re avoiding the work. Reframing “I have to” into “I get to” changes everything. Wee Pro Tip 💡When you don’t feel like doing the thing: don’t debate it, don’t delay it, set a 10-minute timer and start anyway.Momentum comes from action, not motivation.

    Ep. 25 Are you training hard enough to get results?

    In this episode, I’m breaking down what “training hard enough” actually means if you want to build muscle, get stronger, and see real change. Quick takeaways: “Toned” = building muscle + losing body fat (dieting alone won’t do it). Muscle growth needs: good form + enough load + training close to failure + recovery. Use reps in reserve: beginners can leave 3–4 reps, experienced lifters aim for 1–2 reps most sets. Stop hopping programs — you need weeks of consistency to actually progress. Final wee pro tip:Pick ONE lift this week and track it properly — same exercise, same tempo, and try for one more rep or a tiny weight jump. Thanks so much for tuning into today’s episode!

    Ep 24. Is it your perception that's the problem?

    In this episode, I talk about how your perception can completely change your experience and your results. I share how starting my photoshoot prep made me reflect on mindset, and why two people can follow the same plan but have totally different outcomes. It’s not willpower or discipline, it’s the story you’re telling yourself. We cover how language, past experiences, and limiting beliefs shape how food, training, and change feel, plus how to shift your perception without falling into toxic positivity. Bottom line:Change the story, change the experience — and the results will follow. Thanks so much for tuning into today’s episode!
