You know you have body autonomy

You’ve heard it time and time again, you have autonomy over what you decide to do with your body

It’s your choice

And yet it doesn’t actually feel like a choice

Not pursuing weight loss feels uncomfortable, distressing, scary, maybe even unfathomable to you

And pursuing it feels urgent, pressured and like your mood, your eating and how you feel about yourself relies on that number trending down (or at least not going up)

And on top of that, it feels like you’re relying on willpower that could topple at any moment, your eating habits can swing excessively and there’s a noise that never quite switches off in your brain around food

What if this wasn’t about your discipline but the fact your choices aren’t actually coming from autonomy (even if you think they are)? 👀

We’re getting into:

• Why “my body, my choice” isn’t the full picture
• The subtle signs your choices or weight loss goals aren’t as autonomous as they feel
• The hidden pressure shaping your goals (and your yo-yo with food)
• Why you feel stuck between food freedom and body change
• And what actually changes when you do have real autonomy

So get listening

And if you’re ready to get food out of your brainspace, stop feeling like you’re one moment away from bingeing or falling off track and finally make sustainable changes to your eating and your health that feel calm, trusting and come from YOU (not your next diet or accountability challenge)

1:1 coaching is where we build the autonomy in your relationship with food, yourself and your body to do exactly that - you can apply here

P.S. Here’s the anonymous question box I promised for the podcast about GLP-1s/weight loss drugs

Ever feel like one body comment, scale fluctuation, or “bad body image day” can spiral into days of overthinking, food chaos, or wanting to fix yourself?

You might assume the goal is to stop being triggered altogether…

But in this episode, I’m sharing why that’s actually an unhelpful aim and the powerful shift I taught a client this week that completely changed how she approached those moments…

If you feel like your mood, eating, confidence or plans can still get hijacked when your body image is activated, this conversation will give you a different way to look at what’s really happening

And how to actually make sustainable changes to how you think, feel and behave around food and your body 

And if you’re ready to stop spiralling around food and your body and build a more peaceful, resilient and sustainable relationship with food and your body, you can apply to work with me 1:1 here

Feel like food is on your mind ALL the damn time?

Wonder why your brain is just so noisy around food?

Want to actually get to the bottom of it so you can turn the noise down and free up mental headspace FOR GOOD?

Then this episode is for you! I'm giving you all the signs that will tell you whether your food noise is coming from restriction (or sneaky restriction) and why these subtle behaviours are keeping your brain thinking about food more often than you'd like

Get listening now and don't forget to follow the podcast so you don't miss an episode!

And if you're ready to end the food noise, all or nothing patterns with food and start building a relationship with food and your body that feels calm, trusting and sustainable for the rest of your life, 1:1 coaching is where we make that happen - apply here

My guess is telling yourself “nobody cares what I look like” or “stop caring what everyone else thinks” hasn’t actually helped calm your thoughts and feelings about your body has it? 

You still change outfits six times, check the mirror obsessively, stress over the scale or avoid plans because of how your body looks

In this episode, I break down why that common advice keeps failing you and what you can do instead to stop letting other people’s opinions, comparison or triggering situations control how you feel about your body and the actions you take

If you’re ready to start feeling calmer in your body and more in control your choices, this episode is for you

This week, I’m breaking down WHY that Mike Tyson Super Bowl commercial seriously missed the mark and no, I'm not "reading too much into it"

We dig into why the delivery of this ad did more long term health harm than good, why body size does not equal health and why simplistic “eat real food” messaging misses the complexity of health and sustainable behaviour change.

Along the way, I challenge diet culture myths and explore the hidden influences shaping how we think about food, bodies and health whilst providing YOU with a starting point for supporting your own health long term outside of reductive and shame-based advice

Let's get into it shall we?!

Don't forget if you want to chat (for free) about what sustainable and stress free health would look like for you and the steps YOU personally need to take to support that, DM me "audit" on Instagram and I'll send you my booking calendar for a free health audit call so you can clear up the confusion and have clarity NOW

And if you're ready to be free from food noise, yo-yo patterns with food and dieting and find your sustainable happy middle ground with food, your body and your health, here's the link to apply for 1:1 coaching

Do you feel like certain foods make you “lose control”?

Like once chocolate, cake or carbs are around, it’s only a matter of time?

Do you eat “good” all week, save treats for the weekend, avoid buying foods you don’t trust yourself around, then end up overeating anyway and blaming yourself?

If yes, I’m going to tell you WHY this is

Because overeating is not a food problem or a willpower problem

(And thinking this is actually causing MORE overeating - I’ll tell you why that is too)

In this episode, we go beyond the food to unpack what’s actually driving overeating cycles and why trying to “control” food is often the very thing keeping you feeling like a sugar addict 

If you’re ready to stop fighting food, stop blaming yourself and understand what’s really going on beneath your eating patterns, press play!!

And if you’re ready for my tailored support in overcoming overeating cycles, healing your relationship with food and finding your sustainable, peaceful and healthful middle ground with food and your body for life, your application for 1:1 coaching is here

If you are sat here wondering WHY your binges, overeating or all or nothing patterns around food just keep coming back no matter what you try, this episode is for YOU

I'm talking about one of the biggest factors underpinning them so you can understand more about what's really going on and the steps you can start taking now to feel calmer, more in control and less all or nothing around food

(And this goes BEYOND generic "just eat intuitively" or "include your trigger foods" type of advice that leave you wondering how the heck you're supposed to do that when you've not been able to have Reese's in the house without inhaling the lot in one since FOREVER)

And if you're ready for my support in ending the all or nothing cycles with food and your weight, and finding lasting peace around food and sustainable health for LIFE, below is the link to apply for 1:1 coaching where we transform your relationship with food, yourself and your body for good

If you’ve ever found yourself thinking

“Why do I keep doing this when I KNOW it doesn’t help me?”

…this episode is for you. In fact, you can stop reading and just hit play, but I’ll expand anyway

You can probably list out ALL the reasons you want to stop overeating or emotionally eating: the bloating, the physical discomfort, the guilt spiral, the feeling that food has way too much power over you. You’re tired of the “why did I do that again?” or “I’ll be better tomorrow” conversations in your head

AND YET

It keeps happening

Late nights in the kitchen raiding the cupboards even when you’re not hungry

Mindless snacking after dinner

Eating past fullness even when you genuinely wanted to stop

And that’s because there’s a side of emotional eating that almost no one talks about and missing it is one of the biggest reasons people stay stuck in cycles of overeating, guilt and self-blame 

In this conversation, we explore:

• why focusing only on the downsides of emotional eating often backfires
• the question that actually changed everything in my own relationship with food and got me binge-free
• and the overlooked piece that turns emotional eating from something you fight… into something you can finally loosen your grip on

This isn’t about new food rules, restriction or taking comfort and pleasure from food away
And it’s not about shaming or “fixing” yourself either

But if you’ve been stuck in this pattern for years and nothing you’ve tried has truly worked…hit play now

And if you are ready for deeper support in transforming the way you think, feel and behave around food so you can find that happy middle with food you deep down trust yourself to sustain for LIFE without ANY more diet hopping, my support is waiting for you in 1:1 coaching

Hand up if you relate…

One minute you’re trying to stay “on track,” the next you’ve blown it and feel like you’re back at square one, on repeat and you keep blaming yourself (or your willpower)

Or maybe you’ve had moments where you know food doesn’t really help you feel less stressed the moment all hell has broken loose at home but you still fall head first into the kids penguin bars to cope

Whether you’re going round in circles feeling chaotic with food and you don’t know why or HAVE built the awareness of your triggers and what to change, but nothing seems to stick, I’m about to tell you exactly what’s missing 

And I’m unpacking why insight alone (aka knowing what to do) isn’t enough to change your patterns for the long term in a way that leaves you never doubting yourself or considering another diet plan again

I’ll share why your brain and body keep reaching for the familiar, why willpower won’t save you despite what the PT from down the road told you and the missing piece that actually lets you respond differently… without shame, guilt or spiraling back into the cycle

If you’ve ever felt frustrated, exhausted, or just plain stuck in your relationship with food, your body, or yourself, this episode is for you so plug on in now…

And if you’re ready to wave goodbye to the yo-yo cycle with food for good and finally start responding to food, your body, and your emotions in a way that actually lasts without all the criticism, restriction or obsessive thoughts, 1:1 coaching is where I bring the perfect blend of insight and integration, helping you understand why your patterns and behaviours happen AND build the real-life skills to shift them for good

I'm ready for this support

Why does eating feel SO much harder than it “should”?

Why do hunger cues feel unreliable, why do emotions or food feel overwhelming or why do I always seem to swing back and forth between control and chaos?

We’re answering that in today’s episode

As well as giving you reason number 5648 why it’s not your willpower that’s the problem when it comes to how you behave with food

We explore the often-overlooked connection between neurodivergence (especially ADHD and autism) and your relationship with food

We talk about why eating is one of the most neurologically demanding things you do every day, how sensory processing, executive function, dopamine, control and masking shape your eating patterns and why diet culture and wellness advice so often fail neurodivergent brains

This episode is for you if you’ve ever been told you’re lazy, fussy, undisciplined, emotional or ‘lacking in self control’ and you’ve quietly wondered if there’s something deeper going on (spoiler alert…there always is)

But this is a piece you might not have considered…

If you’re enjoying Break the Rules, please share the podcast link with a friend who wants to leave the diet culture and self blame BS behind and rebuild trust and lasting freedom with food and their body

And if you’re ready for support in untangling and transforming your relationship with food, yourself and your body, 1:1 coaching is where we get underneath your body’s story and shift that at the root so you can leave behind the on/off cycles, self criticism and constant feeling that food and your body are a project that will never be done
