Crave episodes

  • Something I do when life gets hard

    During this episode I talk about something I learned when I was in labour with my second baby - the way physical pain taught me how to deal with emotional pain and discomfort. I believe that in the moments when we feel adrift, lost, or disturbed by the events of our lives, we're being called home to ourselves / our hearts / our true nature. Without this pain we wouldn't know our true capacity.


    The pain we feel in life (loss of a loved one, a difficult relationship, an unhappy child etc)often has us looking outside of ourselves for refuge from the deep darkness or the overwhelming emotion, I've often found myself looking for a book, a podcast, a teacher or a friend (and all of these things have been helpful and important). When I look outside, I'm seeking reassurance, comfort, a pathway towards not feeling how I feel.


    But my belief is that the pain is here to expand us, to deepen our capacity for for even greater experiences, it's here to open up our lives in new ways - that at first might feel scary or even unwanted. Typically as humans we want things to stay as they are, even if they're not that great.


    In this episode I share a little of my own experience in the hopes that it helps others.

    I think perhaps there are many ways people find their way home; cold water, breathwork, solitude, heart connection, animals, long walks, writing, reading poetry, painting.....

    The point is not to distract from the pain, but to stop running from it and allow space for it to be felt.


    CRAVE my online programme designed for women who want to change the way they think, feel and act around food is open for enrolments. Starting April 24th 2023.

  • Interview with James Carson Self Care Expert

    I know self care can be such an easy thing to write off, when we look at our busy lives it can easily fall to the bottom of the list, I have certainly been guilty of the the old "I'll get started tomorrow" or "I don't have time".  The thing is journaling, sitting in silence or taking a dance break can feel like such a waste of time when we're under pressure or feeling like there are so many other things we need to attend to in our lives (I've put self care at the bottom of the list many times in my life) ......but really is there anything more important than taking care of ourselves?  Really consider that.  What else IS more important than taking CARE of ourselves?  I know what my life looks like and feels like  when I take care of myself - and its exponentially better.  I also know that when I'm not taking care of myself everything else in my life (relationships, work, energy levels, working out....) feels so much harder!  James is such a guiding light in the world of self care, really providing a strong and beautiful perspective and example of what can be created just by a few simple tools.  James shares his 5 to thrive in this interview - the things he prioritises doing every day as part of his own self care routine, and talks us through his journey of creating this practice of caring for himself that has opened up his life in ways that seem so big.....from such simple and seemingly small practices.

    I LOVED doing this interview.  I came away really inspired and kicked into action, I've dramatically upped my own self care, and created my own routines since this interview that I'm finding deeply supportive of my own life......I can't wait to hear what you take from this and what you decided to make a priority in your life.

  • Interview with Confidence Coach Xena Jones
    **Please Note - salty language is used right off the bat in this episode - so you may want to consider headphones if you have your kids around ** When I ask my clients “how will you feel when you lose the weight?” so often the response is along the lines of “I’ll feel so much more confident”. And in my experience - while it’s a lovely feeling to slip on a pair of jeans and have them feel comfortable, being a size or a weight is not what actually gives us confidence…..There are PLENTY of women in the world who are smaller in size and weight, who don’t feel confident. So I thought I’d talk with the confidence coach Xena Jones, about how to create confidence no matter what. I learned a lot in this conversation about how to be confident even when I’m feeling out of my depth or comfort zone, and how to call on and build on the confidence I do have….I hope you get heaps out of this!

  • How I changed things

    Welcome to Crave 2023! The podcast about Craving, and creating what we crave…..

    Craving chocolate isn’t about chocolate. It’s about craving experience, expansion and lives that hummm. Crave is not just a podcast for women who want to change the way they think feel and act around food….it’s becoming so much more!

    Today I’m sharing a little of my own experience in what helped me create lasting change in my cravings…. Kindness.

    My head used to be a dark scary place to be while I lay in bed at night regretting my decisions, feeling overfull, and uncomfortable physically and emotionally….

    And getting out of my head and into my heart was the first small step I took that lead me out of the destructive patterns I was stuck in.

    Let me know how you go with this.

  • What if you didn't have to control yourself?

    So often women try to lose weight by controlling themselves.  We say "I'm just going say no to chocolate"  or "I'm only eating paleo"  etc.

    Now I'm not saying there's anything wrong with cutting out chocolate or eating a paleo diet.  BUT when we use control as a way to get ourselves to do ANYTHING it typically backfires..... is this your experience?   When we try to control ourselves there's typically an inner rebel that screams "Hell no", or "F-THAT"!  Think about a time in the past when you've tried to control yourself - has it worked?  So if control doesn't work.......what's the answer?
    Listen in for todays thoughts on control and trust

    “If you try to lose weight by shaming, depriving and fearing yourself, you will end up shamed, deprived, and afraid. Kindness comes first. Always.”  - Geneen Roth

  • 2 things you can do to avoid weight gain this Christmas season

    Ladies!  Are you feeling the pressure of Christmas?

    I said to my husband last night "it feels like we're haemorrhaging  money at the moment!"  
    Do you meet up with your friends and talk about; "how hectic and crazy is it at the moment?!"
    Is your calendar bulging with so many events, traditions, kids request and family meals that your head is spinning?

    Do you find yourself mindlessly eating?
    Do you find yourself eating when you feel stressed?
    Do you find yourself saying "who cares" and eating whatever?
    Do you find yourself staying up late to fit it all in and eating food you wouldn't otherwise be eating?

    In here I talk about the 2 things you can do today, to help shift all this.

  • Minisode: How do I stop my kid from believing a fundamental lie?

    Last week we discussed fundamental lies.

    The way things happen or don't happen for us early on in life, and then our brains tell a story about that event....In last weeks episode I used the example of a kid who's the only one in his class not invited to a birthday party, and what the kid might make that mean; "I'm not good enough / why don't they like me / what's wrong with me /  there's something wrong with me" etc.  Of course none of these ideas are true, these kinds of thoughts are what I call fundamental lies.
    I was asked by someone in the audience at Alices Wolf Pack event, something like; "How do we stop our kids from falling into the trap of believing a fundamental lie?"  I answer her question in this podcast.

  • #25 Wolf Pack
    My apologies the sound quality on this episode isn’t great! A new mic is in the post - but I’ve kept the episode up as I still believe it’s valuable. So you couldn't make it the other night?
    Don't live in Tauranga?
    Don't live in NZ?
    I've got you covered......
    a little while ago I was asked to speak at an event to raise funds for lung cancer research, and my friend Alice, who has lung cancer and a wolf pack. (see the link - if you'd like to donate).
    I was asked to give a 20 minute talk, you can clearly see this is 40 minute podcast! I went a little over time in this podcast, and its absolutely not word for word what I shared in my keynote.
    So what is this talk about?
    It's about the cause of weight.  It's about what weight might be pointing to.  It's about understanding how food really doesn't cause weight.  It's about how to lose weight without dieting.  It's about how to make changes. It's about energy.  It's about the accumulation of mass on our bodies (or the accumulation of anything that feels uncomfortable). It’s about remembering; you were always the wolf.
    Theres a lot here.
    If you're inspired to take action after listening to this - tag me in your soical media, email me and let me know what you're doing, DM or PM me and share your insights.....I love hearing from you.
