You’ve been asking… and I’m finally spilling the tea! In this episode, I’m breaking down exactly what I’m doing to get lean, toned, and strong AF for summer — in just six weeks.

Yep, even as a personal trainer, I’ve hired a coach (shoutout to Maz 💪) and it’s been a game-changer. Why? Because even coaches need accountability. Knowing what to do isn’t the same as doing it — and trust me, paying for a plan and having someone check in on you really does light a fire under your bum 🔥

Inside this ep, I’m sharing:

• Why I hired a coach (even though I am one)

• What my custom plan looks like

• My real reasons for doing this

• How this journey feels completely different to last time I got shredded

• Week 1 reflections, including all the sneaky habits I didn’t realise I had

• The truth about hunger, discipline, and why "poor me" doesn’t cut it anymore

• How I'm navigating this plan while still enjoying social events, drinks, and life

If you’ve ever felt like you’re going through the motions with your workouts, eating well but not seeing results, or wondering if it’s “bad” to want to feel confident in a bikini — this episode is for you.

Tired of hearing the same advice about cutting carbs or counting calories? Same.
In this episode, we go beyond the basics and dive into the mindset, communication, and practical daily habits that actually help you stay consistent with your goals.

We’re talking:

✅ How to stop feeling like you’re depriving yourself
✅ The power of telling friends + family what you’re doing
✅ Simple hacks like pre-logging meals and bulk cooking
✅ Why tracking your food (even loosely) changes the game

This isn’t about being perfect. It’s about being prepared.
Listen now and start building a routine that actually feels good to stick to.

**Laura**

What foods help reduce period cramps and pain?

**Shin**

1. What’s the best alcohol or juice choice for social events?

2. How does weight change during our cycle?

**Sam**

How can I get better at tracking food when I cook everything from scratch?

**Anna**

**Helen**

**Christine**

**Annabel**

**Nicola**

I’m going on holiday Saturday — any tips to stop things going totally downhill?

In this episode, we are getting real about weight gain — including the 5lbs Chelsea’s recently put on and what it actually means. Spoiler: it’s not cortisol, moon cycles, or magical incline settings. It’s life. It’s normal. It’s human.

We’re unpacking the mindset traps around fat loss, why overcomplicating everything with bio-hacks and fear-based content is keeping women stuck, and what really moves the needle when it comes to results.

This episode is for anyone who’s ever felt like they’ve failed because the scale went up — you haven’t. You’re just in a different season.
