  1. When trying harder is the problem

    When trying harder is the problem

    What if the thing holding you back… is how hard you're trying? In this episode, we're unpacking two things almost no one talks about on a weight loss journey: obsession with the end result, and the burnout that quietly follows. We get into what it actually looks like to fixate on one body part, one number, one dress size — and how that tunnel vision pulls you into self-sabotage before you even realise it's happening. Courtney shares how she spent years only looking at her stomach in the mirror, completely blind to the progress everywhere else. If you've been there, you'll feel this one. We also break down: 👉 Why the "finish line" mentality is one of the most damaging traps in weight loss 👉 How shifting to small, process-driven wins is what actually creates lasting change 👉 What burnout really looks like — and why most people don't recognise it until they've gone radio silent on their goals 👉 A practical toolkit for preventing and recovering from burnout: non-negotiables, sleep, stress reprogramming, and human connection This one is equal parts honest and actionable. Because prevention is always easier than the cure. And you deserve the best of yourself — not just the leftovers.

  2. Stop Winging It (Why you're not getting results in the gym)

    Stop Winging It (Why you're not getting results in the gym)

    Here's the truth most people won't tell you… Walking into the gym without a plan isn't "flexibility." It's the reason you're not seeing results. In this episode, we're talking about why so many people spend months (sometimes years) training hard and getting nowhere. Courtney shares how she used to avoid the weights area entirely — not because she was lazy, but because she didn't know what the hell she was doing. She stuck to the treadmill, got zero results, and eventually gave up... until a simple, structured plan changed everything. We break down: 👉 Why "winging it" is keeping you stuck — and what to do instead 👉 The "more is better" trap — and why overtraining is far more dangerous than under-training 👉 How to find YOUR training sweet spot (because it looks different for everyone) 👉 Why fitness influencers showing five-day training splits are doing you zero favours 👉 The role of data collection — because if you haven't tracked it, you don't actually know what's working 👉 How your gym performance is your body's most honest feedback If you've been showing up but not seeing progress — or you're standing frozen on the gym floor wondering where to start — this one's for you. Start smart. Not big. How we can help you - • Calories Not Included – 87 fast, flexible and family-friendly recipes for people who are sick of weighing their lettuce.

  3. The 6 forms of guilt keeping you stuck

    The 6 forms of guilt keeping you stuck

    You know what we see when we look at someone who's overweight and struggling? We don't see someone who's selfish. We see someone who hasn't been selfish enough. In this episode, we're breaking down the 6 forms of guilt that quietly run the show behind your food choices, your training, your social life… and even your wins. Most people don't realise guilt is driving the bus — they just feel stuck, frustrated, and caught in the same loops. This episode changes that. We're covering everything from the people-pleaser trap (where everyone else's needs come before yours) to the one nobody expects — feeling guilty about actually succeeding. If you've ever skipped the gym to help someone else, written off a whole week because of one bad meal, or downplayed your own progress so you don't make someone uncomfortable… this one's for you. What you'll learn: - Why the most selfless people often struggle the most with their health — and what to do about it - The perfectionism trap that turns one small slip into a full-blown spiral - How to walk into social events with a plan instead of walking out with regret - Why emotional eating isn't a character flaw (and what it actually is) - The "all or nothing" guilt cycle that's keeping you stuck — and how to break it - The surprising form of guilt that makes people sabotage their own success How we can help you - • Calories Not Included – 87 fast, flexible and family-friendly recipes for people who are sick of weighing their lettuce.

    10 ways to stay consistent (even when you don't feel like it)

    You know what kills more results than a bad plan? Starting and stopping. Over and over again. If you've ever gone hard for a few weeks, lost steam, fallen off, and then waited until Monday (or next month, or January) to start again… this episode is going to hit different. Because we're not just talking about why consistency matters — we're breaking down exactly how to build it into your life so it actually sticks. This is one of those episodes where we lay out 10 practical strategies you can use straight away — whether your goal is fat loss, fitness, or just getting out of the on-again-off-again cycle for good. No fluff. No motivation speeches. Just real structure you can follow even on your worst days. In this episode, you'll learn: Why your "why" matters more than your workout plan — and how to find one that actually holds up when things get hard How to set goals that keep you focused instead of overwhelmed (and why vague goals set you up to quit) The habit shifts that separate people who get results from people who keep restarting Why "winging it" is one of the biggest consistency killers — and what to do instead How preparation removes the decisions that trip you up during the week Why tracking what you do (even loosely) keeps you honest and on track How the right support network changes everything — and why asking for help isn't a weakness The mindset shift that stops one bad day from becoming a bad month How to use your mistakes as data instead of letting them send you into a spiral Why showing up imperfectly and repeatedly will always beat short bursts of perfection How we can help you - • Calories Not Included – 87 fast, flexible and family-friendly recipes for people who are sick of weighing their lettuce.
