Lean for Life episodes

  • Want to Give Up?
    It's common for many of us to quit too soon because we've failed to meet our expectations often within an unrealistic timeframe, or because we see failure as final rather than feedback. Join us in this episode as we discuss how staying the course to our goal rather than quitting is actually the journey to ultimate success. We also provide three specific and practical strategies you can apply today to ensure that you stay on track to achieving your most desired goals!

  • Ditch the Scales
    There are many reasons why the scales are a terrible tool for weight loss and can actually lead you to give up and turn away from your goals! In this episode Miranda and Kirsten discuss why a focus on the numbers may actually misrepresent the very real but maybe invisible progress you are making. Join us as we explore the elements you want to focus on and measure, all that is within your power to influence and change!

  • Too Busy?
    With busy and demanding days and responsibilities it can be super easy to get caught up in a cycle of excusing ourselves from looking after ourselves, eating well and making the time to exercise. Our work, partners, children, friends and family members can demand more and more from us, to the point that we feel like little energy and time is left over for our health. It doesn't have to be this way. We can actually gain more time and more energy by working smarter and not harder when it comes to our health and fitness by applying the principles and strategies that Kirsten and Miranda explore in this episode.

  • Avoiding Pain
    The human brain and body are both highly motivated to avoid pain. Or default is to avoid, deny, numb the pain, and this is so often why we eat emotionally and stay stuck in the habits and the body that we'd like to change.
    Join us in this episode as we explore the common ways that we respond to pain and how it is keeping us stuck where we are. They also provide key strategies to help us use pain to our advantage so that it gets us to the place of a deep desire and motivation for change.

  • Your Body Image
    They say 'comparison is the thief of joy' and this is especially true for women when it comes to our bodies. Blissfully unaware of our body as babies and toddlers we go from unawareness to shame as we absorb expectations from those around us, and ideals presented to us via the media.
    Miranda and Kirsten share their stories of their journey from feeling shame, unattractive, invisible and disappointment, to creating a healthier relationship with their body through optimising their own genetic potential, and the ongoing journey of becoming their best version of themselves.

  • How to Exercise to Change Your Body Shape
    Exercise, what will give me the best results? How much, how often and how long should I train for? What's your history around exercise, the story you've created. Why do you it, or not? What if you don't like exercise? Miranda and Kirsten share the highs and lows of their 'exercise' stories and give their thoughts on what they've discovered works for them and has been getting their clients tremendous results.

  • Breaking Habits
    We are all creatures of habit. Up to 90% of our behaviours are said to be habitual and automatic. The way we eat, the way we exercise, the way we feel about our bodies, think about them and look are mostly a result of our daily habits. If we want to change any pattern, result, behaviour, emotion or thought in our lives then it's crucial that we understand our habits and how they can be changed. In this episode we look at the way we form habits and strategies to help you know how to break old ones and create new ones that will lead you right to your goal!

  • Putting Yourself Last?
    Women seem to have an innate ability to nurture. We feed, nourish, protect, support, encourage, develop, promote, educate, build up and bring up others. We love and care for our partner, family, friends, co-workers, students, clients and customers, but so often neglect to give ourselves the nurturing that we need.
    In this episode, we explore how this pattern often leads to the current health, weight and eating problems that we are going through. We discuss why we can become stuck in this issue of putting ourselves last and never having enough time, energy or other resources to spend on caring for and developing ourselves. We provide the practical strategies that will help you care for yourself, go after your goals and continue to nurture others at the same time. "Rest and self-care are so important. When you take time to replenish your spirit, it allows you to serve others from the overflow. You cannot serve from an empty vessel." Eleanor Brownn

  • When Will I Lose Weight!?
    We can become disillusioned, frustrated, disheartened, hopeless and defeated when we believe we are doing all that we can towards our health and fitness goals, but we don't seem to be changing. You are eating healthily, training regularly and it just doesn't seem to make a difference and so you start to think 'Why bother?', 'What's the point', and feel like giving up. In this episode, we discuss the key solutions to dealing with a plateau or delayed results, including adjusting our expectations and beliefs, plus the key actions we can take that can make all the difference.
