Today I had a surprising realisation over breakfast. It turns out, I still love overnight oats. I first discovered them during my Slimming World days. So why am I still eating them now, years after letting go of food rules and diet plans? Because I actually enjoy them, and I think that’s worth talking about a little bit.

This episode explores how we can reclaim foods from our dieting past, how some meals still serve us, and how others (like pasta salad!) might be worth revisiting in a whole new way. If you've ever questioned why you eat what you eat, or avoided something that reminds you of old diet habits, this one’s for you.

What You’ll Hear:

• Why it’s okay to enjoy a food you discovered while dieting
• How to tell if a food is serving you now, or just sticking around from habit
• Foods we avoid because they trigger diet culture memories
• Reclaiming and reinventing old meals on your own terms
• How to tune into satisfaction instead of rules

Let’s Chat!
Do you still eat foods from your dieting days? Or have you avoided something you might actually love? I’d love to hear your story. Send me a message, or tag me on socials!

The clothes you wear impact your confidence, self-expression, and even your success - fact! I wanted to get into this subject with someone who knows this subject inside out, so in this episode, I’m joined by Samantha Harman, The Style Editor to explore the powerful connection between style, body image, and self-worth. 

We talk about how the fashion industry reinforces unrealistic beauty standards, the struggles of plus-size shopping, and why so many women feel disconnected from their wardrobes.

Samantha shares how clothing can actually be a tool for empowerment rather than frustration, and why breaking free from rigid style rules can help you show up with confidence in every part of your life. 

If you’re anything like me you’ll understand the feeling of standing in front of your wardrobe, feeling lost, wondering why clothes shopping feels so difficult. If you have, this conversation is for you.

We’re talking about:

✔️ Why style is about more than just clothes - it’s about confidence and energy
✔️ How your star signs should determine what you wear and how you show up
 ✔️ How the fashion industry fails women, especially plus-size shoppers
 ✔️ Why traditional styling advice can be limiting rather than empowering
 ✔️ The role of body image in our clothing choices and how to shift our mindset
 ✔️ Practical steps to rebuild a wardrobe that truly serves you

Have you ever heard the phrase “He’s punching above his weight” and stopped to think about what it really means? It’s often said as a joke, but underneath it lies a deeper issue—the idea that a woman’s worth is defined by how she looks, while a man’s worth is measured by his success, humour, or status.

In this episode, we dive into the impact of the male gaze and the unrealistic pressures placed on women to be seen as ‘attractive enough.’ We explore how these outdated ideas shape relationships, self-worth, and body image—and, most importantly, how we can start to break free from them.

I'm talking about:
✅ Why the phrase “He’s punching” is more damaging than it seems
✅ How media, dating culture, and social norms reinforce the male gaze
✅ The emotional impact of feeling like you have to ‘maintain’ your attractiveness
✅ How to reclaim your body and self-worth from external validation
✅ Ways to challenge and shut down these outdated ideas when you hear them

Also, there's an update on my coaching prices. I've DROPPED them! Take a look at the "work with me" link below.

Have you ever wondered why it’s so hard to let go of old habits, even when you know they aren’t really helping you? You might recognise that dieting makes you miserable, but you keep going back. Or maybe you’re fully aware that constantly body-checking in the mirror isn’t doing you any favours, yet you just can’t seem to stop.

You’re not the only one - I was there with you at one point. I knew that the dieting, the binge eating, and the criticism in the mirror was not good for me, but I did it over and over again. 

We don’t hold onto behaviours for no reason though. There’s always something deeper at play. Quite often those old habits around food and body image are actually trying to protect us - even if they’re also keeping us stuck, and even if it doesn’t feel like it.

So in this episode of The Intuitive Eating & Body Positivity Podcast I’m looking at 3 of the biggest reasons why it’s so hard to stop dieting, what keeps you holding on to old behaviours, and asking you how do they really serve you?

Also, I’ll tell you how I’m quite amazed at the new drink I discovered this week - it blew my mind when I found it 🤯

Have you ever caught yourself explaining your diet to someone? 

Diet culture has convinced us that we need to justify what we eat and why we eat it, and some of those justifications are downright ridiculous! 

In this episode, I’m going to give you 20 of my favourite diet excuses, explaining why they’re a little bit crazy, laughing at the nonsense, and uncovering the real reasons why we feel the need to explain our food choices.

If you’ve ever said things like “It’s not a diet, it’s a lifestyle!” or “I have to track everything or I’ll lose control,” then this episode is for you! 

Let’s challenge these beliefs, find some food freedom, and ditch the justifications.

Over the years, we’ve seen celebrities and influencers championing body positivity, rejecting diet culture and embracing self-acceptance. Many of us found comfort in their messages, feeling seen and supported in our own body positivity journeys.. 

But lately, there’s been a clear change. Some of the same people who built their platforms on rejecting weight loss culture have now started losing weight. 

Completely co-incidentally (yeh right….) the rise of GLP-1 injections such as Ozempic seems to have escalated this, and now their once-empowering messages have been replaced with posts about body “transformation” and the supposed benefits of shedding weight.

So, if you’ve felt let down by this, you’re not alone. Let’s talk about why this happens, why it hurts so much, and why your frustration is completely valid.

Inspired by a new book I’m reading - Love Yourself Like Your Life Depends On It by Kamal Ravikant - I’ve been thinking about how we can help our relationship with food and our bodies from a more holistic perspective. 

Inspired by the book "Love Yourself Like Your Life Depends On It" by Kamal Ravikant, I’m asking you to ask yourself one question - "Would I do this if I truly loved myself?" 

In this episode of the Intuitive Eating & Body Positivity Podcast, I’m talking about how asking yourself that one question can reshape your relationship with food, your body, and your overall well-being. 

In any given moment this question can guide our choices around food, clothing, self-care, and personal development, helping us break free from the constraints of diet culture and weight stigma. 

Join me as we uncover how embracing self-love can lead to a more fulfilling and positive life.

This week, I'm talking about making space for the new you. It’s all about creating an environment that uplifts and supports the person you’re becoming, not the one diet culture tried to shape you into.

From your kitchen cupboards to your wardrobe (and even your mindset), little changes can make a big difference. In this episode I want to help you explore your surroundings and how to make them reflect your new, unapologetic self - without overwhelm or a massive budget.

Here’s what I’m chatting to you about this week:

✨ Clearing out the kitchen clutter and swapping diet-focused tools for things that bring you joy—yes, I’m looking at those scabby old containers!

 👗 Saying goodbye to clothes that don’t fit or spark joy, and making your wardrobe a space you love opening every day.

 🍽 Creating an eating space that makes meals feel enjoyable, whether it’s swapping out chipped plates or upgrading to cutlery you actually like.

 💡 Sprucing up your home with lighting, organisation, or little touches that make your spaces feel brighter and more “you.”

 🧠 Making emotional space by clearing out negative thoughts and building in small, positive routines like gratitude or joy jars.

This episode is packed with practical tips to help you create a home (and a headspace) that’s as fabulous as the new you. Are you ready? Hit play >>

Some people love the chat with the consultant in front of everyone at the diet club, and some hate it. What camp are you in? Either way, there was always the same question..... "how much are you going to lose this week?". Now first off, I have no idea. But still I, like everyone else there, picked a number..... "I'll lose 2lbs this week".

What is with that number? Why did I pick it? Why did half the diet club pick it? This week I'm pondering over that and trying to work out why the 2lbs loss was such a popular target. 

Spoiler alert! I'm also going to be telling you why it's a bit ridiculous!

Let's chat about the struggles with achieving that 2lbs loss, why it feels different depending on the week you have just had, how our bodies behave naturally, and how setting that 2lbs target for the week can encourage more restriction and more guilt.
