In this week’s episode, we’re joined by Chris Barnett, Registered Associate Nutritionist and personal trainer, to explore why knowing what to eat isn't always enough to create lasting change.
While most people understand the basics of healthy eating, putting that knowledge into practice is often where the real challenge lies. Chris shares his insights into the behavioural, psychological and lifestyle factors that can make healthy eating difficult, even when we know exactly what we should be doing.
Throughout the episode, we discuss the barriers that get in the way of consistency, including busy schedules, habits, emotions and the all-or-nothing mindset that can derail progress. Chris explains why sustainable change is built on realistic, manageable habits rather than restrictive diets or relying solely on willpower. We also explore practical strategies to help bridge the gap between knowledge and action, making healthy choices easier to maintain in everyday life.
Whether you've ever found yourself thinking, "I know what I should be eating, but I just can't seem to stick to it," this conversation will help you understand why that happens and provide practical, evidence-based tips to help you build habits that last.
