    189 - Your Unhealthy Idea of What "Healthy" Is

    If you think you’re "good" from Monday to Friday but a "maniac" on Saturday and Sunday, you don't have a weekend problem. You have a weekday problem. In this episode, I’m challenging your entire definition of what it means to be healthy. Most people believe that being "healthy" means removing every food they actually enjoy and replacing it with rules and restrictions. But if your diet requires you to "white-knuckle" it through the week, you aren't being healthy—you’re just setting the timer on a bomb that’s going to go off every Friday night. In this episode, I cover: Why your current idea of "healthy" is actually the most unhealthy thing about you.The "24-Hour Yo-Yo Dieter"—how you might be dieting and rebelling in the same day.The absurdity of restriction: Why we don't have "fruit binges" but we can't stop eating chocolate.Why your weekdays are actively setting up your weekends for failure.The "Graham Burden" effect: Picking potatoes out of soup while hiding at the vending machine.How to integrate your "weekend self" into your "weekday life" to finally find peace.Why restriction is the root of your behaviour, not the solution to it. If you’re tired of the constant tug-of-war between the "Monday-Friday Drill Sergeant" and the "Weekend Rebel," this episode is for you. If you find it helpful, please take a moment to rate the show, it helps me reach more people who are trapped in this exhausting cycle.

    188 - 5 Things I Didn’t Do to Lose Weight and Keep it Off for 10 Years

    I turned 40 in July 2025 and it’s only just hit me that exactly 10 years ago, I had the conversation with myself that changed everything. I decided I was done with the dieting cycle. I was done with the "white-knuckling" and the constant weight bouncing up and down. In this episode, I’m looking back at the five things I didn’t do to lose weight and—more importantly—stay at that weight for an entire decade. If you feel like you’ve dieted your way to a higher weight than when you first started, this is the reality check you need. In this episode, I cover: The "10-year epiphany" and why I started coaching my 40-year-old self when I was 30.Why following thousands of people on social media is making you more confused, not more successful.The problem with "integrity" in the health podcast space (and why I’m calling out the snake oil sellers).Why cutting your favourite foods out of your diet is the fastest way to make them "kick the door down" later.The shift from chasing a number on the scale to chasing a future for your family.The hard truth: You have likely dieted your way to the weight you are at today.Redefining success: Why losing weight for a month is actually a waste of time if you can't keep it off.It’s time to stop looking for the "thing" that makes the weight come down and start understanding why it’s there in the first place.

    187 - The Emotional Baggage of Food

    I’ve been working with a client recently who has made phenomenal progress, but she’s still terrified of certain "treat foods." It’s a common fear—we think if we let the chocolate or the crisps back into the house, we’ll immediately lose control and undo all our hard work. In this episode, I’m talking about why your favorite foods often carry more emotional baggage than a bad breakup. We dive into why the problem was never the food itself, but the "jobs" you’ve been giving it to do. In this episode, I cover: Why looking healthy doesn't always mean someone is achieving it in a healthy way.The "Domino's Trauma" and how specific takeaways can become self-sabotage anchors.Why "blanket bans" on food are a short-term fix that keep you feeling like a helpless child.The strategy for reintroducing trigger foods when you are in a positive, balanced place.Building a "new bank of evidence" that you can actually control yourself around chocolate.How we give food too many jobs to do—from carrying our emotions to rewarding us for surviving the day.The truth about why you overeat chocolate (hint: it's not the sugar).If you’re tired of feeling like you can't trust yourself in your own kitchen, this episode is for you. If you find it helpful, please take a second to rate the show on Spotify or Apple Podcasts—it helps me reach more people who are stuck in this never ending cycle.

    186 - Old Habits Don't Creep Back In, You Go Back To Them

    I’ve been looking at the final check-ins for the 8-Week Rewire recently and a specific fear kept coming up: "I'm worried old habits will creep back in." It got me thinking about the language we use to shield ourselves from responsibility. We talk about weight "creeping on" or habits "creeping in" as if they are things that happen to us rather than choices we make. In this episode, I’m diving into why you’re actually a victim of your own "diet holidays" and how to stop being a passenger in your own life. In this episode, I cover: Why we use specific language to protect ourselves from the impact of our choices.The "Diet Travel Agent" trap and why every diet holiday eventually has to end.The difference between yoyo dieting and just having your weight go up and down.How to stop "bottling up" your habits and start actually deconstructing them.Why your screen time, your steps, and your weight are just casualties of your underlying coping mechanisms.The uncomfortable work of identifying trauma and emotional eating triggers.How to stand your ground and finally ask "why am I doing this?"If you found this helpful, please take a second to rate the show on Spotify or Apple Podcasts.

    183 - The GLP-1 Trap: Why Medication is Only Delaying the Work

    If you’re taking weight loss medication or thinking about it, you need to hear this.  There is a "GLP-1 Trap" that nobody is talking about, and it has nothing to do with the needle and everything to do with your mindset. Today, I’m breaking down why these "miracle drugs" are actually just delaying the inevitable work you have to do on your relationship with food. I’m sharing the story of a client who transitioned from medication to The Munro Method and why "burning the furniture" to keep your body running is a disaster waiting to happen.

Don't waste the opportunity. If you found this helpful, please rate and review the show!

    182 - Reclaiming Your Me Time: Why Your Relaxation is Draining You

    If you finally sit down at 9:00 PM and your first instinct is to grab your phone and a bag of crisps, we need to talk. You think you’re having "me time," but you’re actually just draining the last of your energy. Today, I’m diving into a core lesson from my brand new 8-week program: how to redefine your me time so it actually fills you back up instead of leaving you feeling hollow. We’re moving past the "just stop snacking" advice and looking at why you cannot change the way you act until you change the way you think. Topics Covered: The 8-Week Rewire: A behind-the-scenes look at the new program and why I’m building it with a beta group.Low-Value Me Time: Why doom-scrolling and mindless eating are actually acts of self-sabotage.The "Hollow" Test: How to tell if your evening habits are replenishing you or draining you.Think First, Act Second: Why you can’t force a change in your behaviour without changing your mindset.Redefining Self-Care: Why a locked bathroom door or a walk without a phone is worth more than a 3-hour Netflix binge.The Power of Accomplishment: How high-value me time creates a "high" that lasts for days.Take some time this weekend to redefine what me time means to you. If it doesn't leave you feeling better than when you started, it’s not me time—it’s just a distraction. Enjoy the episode!
