  • 33. Behaviour Shift: The Secret to Lasting Weight Loss

    One of the most crucial aspects of achieving lasting health and fitness is changing your behaviour.

    Most people find it is the same thing that trips them up repeatedly: could be overeating (evenings/weekends), skipping the gym, making unhealthy choices. Most people give up or try another diet without focussing on the real issue that's its their behaviour that's stopping them progressing.

    Making changes and making new healthy habits isn't easy & most people need support. This episode covers the key issues I see and talks about my new 6wk Group Offering "Start With Purpose" which is designed to help you work on being more active, lose/maintain weight and do the reps on the habits and lifestyle changes you need to lead an active life at a healthy weight.

  • 32. "Flexible" workouts as a tool to beat perimenopause symptoms
    I think almost every woman knows how hormonal
    changes can have an  impact our mood, energy, sleep patterns, and can also mean we have more aches and pains to contend with. As we get older the fluctuations during perimenopause can make maintaining a consistent exercise routine seem daunting. But the good news is that no matter how counter-intuitive it may seem exercise can help your symptoms and having an exercise plan that is flexible is key to being consistent as it means you can flex around those difficult days and still turn up for yourself to get the feel-good benefits that can be so helpful at this time. Listen to find out how I flex my own and my clients workouts around symtoms.

  • 31. Ever lost weight & put it straight back on again? Learn the secrets of maintaining weight loss

    Maintaining weight loss is hard. Most people view a diet as a way to lose weight, but think about it...losing weight isnt the ultimate goal - what most people really want is to lose the weight and keep it off for good. So lets be honest, that needs a long-term commitment to changing your lifestyle, not just a short-term diet. With my clients I focus way less on the scales and instead focus on feeling better, forming new healthy routines, and making these habits your new norm. Because its a simple fact that if you finish your diet and revert to old habits, you’ll end up right back where you started.

    listen to find out the key things to focus on.

    Are you the kind of person who misses a workout or two and then gives up entirely?

If that sounds like you, you're not alone. This perfectionist mindset is often what holds us back from reaching our weight loss goals.

    If this sounds like you listen for practical advice to apply in real scenarios to help you change your approach
