  • 115. “it’s fine when the food is out of sight and not it the house” is exactly why you don’t look like you workout
    Jul 1 2025

    You try to keep junk food out of the house…

    But the second you finally let yourself have one spoon of peanut butter - or a handful of fries - you spiral. You keep going.

    And you promise yourself:

    “I’ll just be better tomorrow.”

    Sound familiar?

    In this episode, I’m sharing how my client Sally went from constantly losing control around peanut butter to feeling strong, in control, and actually seeing results that last.

    Not because she restricted harder.

    But because we changed why she was spiraling in the first place.

  • 112. The Real Reason ‘One Bite’ Always Turns Into a Blowout
    Jun 10 2025

    Picture this:

    You come home tired.

    You’ve been “good” all day—no snacks, stuck to your calories, skipped the chocolate.

    Then one piece turns into three…

    Three turns into eight…

    And by morning, you’re planning to skip breakfast and cut carbs “to make up for it.”

    If you can relate to any of this, and you’ve ever said:

    “I’ve already ruined it… might as well keep going,”

    this episode is for you.

  • 111. Why your Diet / Calorie Deficit is NOT WORKING. (P3)
    May 20 2025

    📍New to this series? Catch up first:

    → [Part 1]

    → [Part 2]

    If you’ve ever thought…

    • “I’ve ruined everything, I’ll start again Monday.”

    • “I just need more willpower to get back on track…”

    …you are not lazy. You’re likely stuck in an all-or-nothing mindset—and that’s exactly what we’re unpacking in this episode.

    In Part 3 of this series, I break down the real reason your diet keeps derailing—even when you’re trying your hardest to be consistent. And no, it’s not because you “lack discipline.” It’s because the black-and-white way you’re thinking about food and progress is quietly sabotaging you.

    🎧 In this episode, we dive deep on:

    ✔ Why the all-or-nothing mindset leads to self-sabotage

    ✔ How perfectionism keeps eroding your self-trust

    ✔ Why missing one workout or eating off-plan spirals you

    Whether you’re trying to lose fat, build muscle, or simply feel in control around food again, this episode will help you stop the start-over cycle—and start making consistent progress that actually lasts.

  • 110. Why your Diet / Calorie Deficit is NOT WORKING. (P2)
    May 13 2025

    When my client finally became aware of what I share in this episode…

    She dropped 5kg in just six weeks.

    And this can totally be your reality too.

    If you’ve been telling yourself you just need more willpower, more discipline, or to “just be better” to reach your goal weight / physique—think again.

    In Part 2 of this 3-part series, I unpack one of the biggest (but most overlooked) reasons women can’t stick to their calorie deficit.

    🛑 Spoiler: It’s not because you’re lazy or lack discipline.

    ➡️ It might be because you’re emotionally eating WITHOUT EVEN REALISING IT.

    📍Haven’t listened to Part 1 yet?

    Start here first → [Link to Part 1]

    In this episode, you’ll learn how to:

    • Spot the subtle emotional eating patterns you're doing that you probably aren't aware of

    • Understand how food can become a go-to comfort

    • How to interrupt and overcome these patterns—even if your nutrition looks “perfect” on paper

    • Build the awareness that creates real, sustainable fat loss results
