In this deeply inspiring episode, I chat with Sharon, a 53-year-old mum who has achieved an incredible 20kg weight loss transformation with the 3 Week Body Reset and Health with Bec Tribe and completely overhauled her life – all while moving house and navigating grief.

After reaching her heaviest weight and struggling with menopause-related weight gain, bloating, and fatigue, Sharon hit a turning point when she saw photos of herself at her niece’s wedding. She tried other diets to help her, but nothing worked… until she discovered me!

She’s now maintained her 20kg loss for 7 months, has a new-found sense of energy and confidence, and is never looking back! It’s become her new lifestyle.

Sharon opens up about:

✅Why keto and intermittent fasting failed her – and how this approach was different

✅Losing 5kg in just 3 weeks (with no exercise!) and the mindset shifts that made it possible

✅How she reached her pre-kids weight for her wedding at 65kg – the lightest she’d been since before having her two boys nearly 20 years ago!

✅The simple mindset hack she used to stop negative thoughts instantly

✅Why taking the focus off the scales was key to long-term, sustainable results

✅The importance of putting yourself first as a mum – and how it benefits your kids too

✅Staying on track during grief after the sudden loss of her boys’ father

✅How she turned cooking from a chore into her “zen time” and a source of joy

✅Why excuses hold women back – and how to break free from them

This episode is full of practical and actionable mindset shifts, and beautiful inspiration for any woman who feels like midlife weight loss is impossible. Sharon’s story proves that with the right approach, mindset, and support, it’s absolutely possible to make a change and transform your health and thrive, no matter what life throws at you!

One of the most common questions I get is: “Is it okay to drink coffee first thing in the morning on an empty stomach?”

You’ll learn:

• What cortisol actually does in your body (and why it’s not the villain it’s made out to be)

• How your natural cortisol cycle works and what can throw it off

• Whether coffee really spikes your cortisol levels in the morning

• The signs and symptoms to look out for to know if your cortisol is out of whack

• The tests that I recommend to get your cortisol tested

• Simple coffee timing tweaks and other lifestyle tweaks to naturally balance your cortisol

In this episode, I'm joined by Michele, a 52-year-old teacher and grandmother from Melbourne, who has achieved an incredible 16 kg weight loss transformation with the 3 Week Body Reset and Health with Bec Tribe!

Michele's story is particularly powerful for women navigating health challenges like insulin resistance and joint pain and stubborn weight. After entering early menopause at just 35 following a hysterectomy, Michele struggled with weight gain and health issues for 17 years. At her heaviest weight, she was on medication for insulin resistance and unable to walk for more than 15 minutes, she felt like she'd given up hope, until she discovered my program and everything changed.

Her timeline is remarkable: Michele lost over 5 kg in her first 3 weeks on the 3 Week Body Reset, then 8 kg within the first 2 months. She reached her goal of losing 16 kg by month 5, and has successfully maintained that loss for 8 months.

Michele opens up about:

• Her surprise early menopause and her 8-month fight for answers

• Gaining 10 kg in a year without changing her diet or exercise

• Losing 5 kg, getting instant energy and confidence boosts on the 3 Week Body Reset

• How eliminating sugar and gluten helped her lose weight and reduce inflammation

• Coming off insulin resistance meds

• Her dramatic reduction in arthritis pain – she now walks 30–40 mins pain-free

• Her two game-changing habits to staying on track: motivational phone reminders and pantry prep

• How she’s able to still eat cake and drink wine - and still lost 16 kgs (and continues to keep the weight off!) 

• How she’s finally putting herself first, and inspiring words to help you do the same

Michele's journey proves that even after 17 years of menopause struggles and hormonal shifts it's absolutely possible to transform your health and feel amazing, even in your 50s. Her story is living proof that when you address the root causes like inflammation from sugar and gluten, the results can be life-changing.

This episode is packed with practical strategies and incredible inspiration for any woman who thinks lasting change isn't possible at their age or stage of life!

In this honest, raw and open episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on what’s been going on behind the scenes – and why I booked a last-minute trip to Bali just 24 hours before flying out 😅

After experiencing some unusual (but common) early signs of nervous system burnout symptoms,, I opened up about what that really felt like, and the steps I took to turn it around.

I also dive into something I get asked all the time: "How do you stay on track with food and fitness while you’re away?"

This episode is packed with real talk on burnout, food freedom, gut health, and mindset – and how I’ve learned to travel and still feel my best without swinging into extremes.

• A kitchen reno update and why it’s been on hold for weeks
• Why I booked a last-minute trip to Bali – and the nervous system warning signs that made me hit pause in some areas and triple my self care there
• The mental health symptoms I experienced
• What burnout can really look like beneath the surface, especially for high-functioning women
• My learnings from taking a social media detox & setting new boundaries whilst away
• The clever food hacks and mindset shifts I use to enjoy food while travelling without overdoing it
• How I stay consistent with exercise while away (including my exact Bali movement routine)
• The powerful link between stress, gut issues, and your nervous system (and what helped me feel better)

In todays episode, I had the incredible honour to have Simon Hill back on the podcast and honestly, this chat was exactly what we all needed to hear.

Simon breaks down the science better than anyone I know to debunk myths and bring you informed, easy to digest information to cut through alll of the confusion out there!

If you've been wondering if butter and coconut oil are heart-healthy or harmful, this episode is for you as  Simon and I delve into the latest research on fats, cholesterol and the truths behind popular diet trends.

I get asked about this daily!

We chat all about:

• The real science behind what cholesterol actually does in your body
• Why getting an ApoB test is SO much better than your standard cholesterol test
• The genetic lottery - why some people can eat eggs daily and be totally fine whilst others can't
• How different saturated fats affect your body differently (butter vs yoghurt vs coconut oil)
• Why fibre is cholesterol's best friend
• How to make tweaks to a lower carb lifestyle if you're worried about cholesterol - without dramatic overhauls
• Why you absolutely don't need to cut butter or coconut oil out completely
• The truth behind 'refueling with carbs' after a workout

The biggest takeaway? Know YOUR body, and remember that small tweaks often work better than dramatic changes!

About Simon Hill:

Simon Hill, a physiotherapist and nutrition scientist, is dedicated to making health and nutrition information easier to understand. His early career focused on the physiology and anatomy behind athletic performance, but his father’s heart attack inspired him to explore how nutrition can prevent disease and optimise health.

Simon hosts The Proof podcast, where he interviews experts to translate research into practical advice, and he authored the bestselling book The Proof is in the Plants, advocating for a plant-rich diet grounded in science.

While we often hear about meditation or exercise to reduce stress, I'm going outside the box here with something that's helped me dramatically - setting clever boundaries. ​​By balancing my cortisol levels (stress hormone) in the ways I chat about in this episode, I’ve noticed improved sleep, greater energy, and I've even noticed huge changes in my physique.​​ ​ I’ll share how tuning into my own needs and setting strict boundaries have been key. From establishing tech-free times and social media detoxes to being selective with the people I surround myself, I’ve noticed a profound impact on my stress management and overall wellbeing. ​ Join me as I reveal how small boundary-setting practices can lead to healthier cortisol levels and ultimately, a far healthier you. Whether it’s scheduling downtime or learning to say no, these tips can help you reclaim some of your peace in your busy life too!
