Carbon Coaching: Confidence Beyond The Mirror episodes

  • #353 How Bad Does It Have To Get?
    How much longer are you willing to tolerate a life that feels “not quite right”?

    In this episode, I open up about my journey through addiction and the moment I realised I had to rebuild everything. We explore fear, comfort, toxic environments, and why real growth often requires walking away from what feels safe.

  • #352 Fat Women Must Stop Focusing On Losing Weight
    If you’re overweight and starting your fitness journey, obsessing over the scale might be the very thing holding you back.

    In this episode, we break down why body weight fluctuates daily, why scale changes don’t equal fat gain, and how focusing on gym consistency and strength creates better long-term body composition results. Fat loss is the goal but the scale is the worst starting point.

  • #351 Women Should Fast Because OF Their Hormones. I Think NOT!
    After overhearing a coach promote fasting as a miracle method and claiming women “should” fast because of their cycle..well.. this episode breaks down the reality.

     We unpack why fasting isn’t magic, how it actually works (calorie deficit), why skipping breakfast can backfire for career-driven women, and why fuelling your day properly leads to better performance, fewer cravings, and more sustainable fat loss.

  • #350 How To Manage Food On Holiday & Lose Fat
    Eating out and going on holiday doesn’t have to mean piling on weight or losing control. In this episode, we break down practical, realistic strategies to stay on track without obsessively tracking. From understanding calorie differences on menus, choosing protein anchors, drinks vs dessert decisions, hydration tricks, movement buffers, and the mindset shift needed to stay consistent without restriction.

  • #349 How To Eat For Fat Loss Without Starving Yourself
    In your 30s, fat loss can’t come at the cost of your energy, performance, and sanity. In this episode, we break down exactly how to set your calories using MyFitnessPal, find maintenance, create a sensible 20% deficit, and prioritise high-protein “real food” meals so you can lose fat without starving yourself.

    We also explain why many women may need to eat more than they think to improve consistency, cravings, training performance, and long term results.

  • #347 Get OFF Your Phone In Your Workout
    You finally carve out an hour to train then spend half of it on your phone. FML
     In this episode, I talk about seeing someone take a long video call mid-workout and why constantly checking emails, messages, and work drama in the gym destroys both training quality and mental clarity.

  • #346 Injured? Me too. Listen to this!
    Guess who injured themselves again....Yup.

    A small tweak can change an entire week of training but how you respond to it matters more than the injury itself.

    In this episode, I talk about tweaking my calf mid run, the lesson most people learn the hard way in their 30s, and why pushing through pain only delays progress. A reminder that long-term success comes from adapting, communicating, and learning to win the war not push through every single battle.

  • #345 What Should you REALLY Start With?
    When women decide to finally prioritise themselves, the biggest question is often where to start??
     The gym, nutrition, or mindset.

    n this episode, we explore why trying to do everything at once leads to overwhelm, why mindset isn’t something you start with, and why building physical strength is often the most powerful first step toward lasting confidence and change.
