Reshape Reboot

It's episode106.  

This week I am starting to explore how we relate to food and drink and as you the listener the question - what is your relationship with food like? Over coming weeks I intend to explore this in more depth as it is such an important factor in building sustainable approaches to health and weight management.

I am also joined by Tim Lewis, founder of Stoneham Press and someone who has the spirit of the restless midlifer. Tim shares his own story that led him to his current focus and how life events have shaped his journey. I love to share the stories of people like Tim because for many of us it's a reminder that there is more to life and there is a big world out there.

Stoneham Press is a publishing, social media and training company set up by Tim Lewis at the age of 41 to publish his fiction books in 2014. He successfully published Timeshock: I want my life back, Timeshock 2: the Fourth Reich and Timeshock 3 : The Future Ark in his time travel series in 2014 under his full name Timothy Michael Lewis. Between 2015 and 2017 Tim published three books in his fantasy Magpies and Magic series, but Tim became progressively more interested in learning how to market his books and online business in general. His last book in 2018 was Social Media Networking where he interviewed 20 people on how they had used social media to get ahead in their lives.

Since then Stoneham Press has been more concentrated on social media training, self-publishing and documenting Tim's travels in the US. Tim was the host of the Begin Self-Publishing Podcast between 2016-2019 and run the #indieAuthorChat Twitter chat for the Alliance of Independent Authors between 2019-2022.

Tim is the co-host of the Oh No! Not Another Live Show!, a general interest interview show and runs the Book Chat Live show on Amazon Live and YouTube.

He is also the creator of the Tim Lewis TCF YouTube channel where Tim talks about his efforts to visit every state in the US (currently at 40 states) and general travel advice from a serial US traveller.

Recently Tim has launched Stoneham Press training where you will find several courses on various skills Tim has learned are useful for online business, especially with regard to video editing and live show production.

It's episode105.  

This week I build upon my thoughts last week on finding the right balance between diet and exercise and focus in on diet and how the overarching framing of 'restriction' is problematic for many of us.

In this episode I outline an alternative approach and give my thinking on this which is a work in progress and very much shaped by my own experiences and those of my clients.

If you are finding yourself with 'diet burnout' then this episode is intended to help you start your journey back from burnout to getting back on top of your health and in charge of your weight management. I mention a video from my FAQ page 'the four levers of weight management'

let me know your thoughts.

It's episode104.  

This week I explore some of the foundational questions that I seek to answer when working with clients and indeed in my own efforts at improving my health and losing weight.

I define some key terms - 'movement,' 'activity,' 'exercise,' and 'diet.' I then explore the factors that we need to consider when thinking about where to focus our health efforts. Do I focus on the 'diet' aspect or 'exercise?'

The short answer is, 'it depends,' however, I dig into that and give some guiding thoughts on where to direct our efforts. I also explore the potential benefits that can arise when we differentiate between 'activity' and 'exercise.'

This episode is intended to provide a foundation for next week's episode in which I dig into the 'diet' side of the mix. So watch out for next week's episode too. Get subscribed to ensure you receive every episode.

It's episode103.  

This week I share some insights into overcoming our tendency to label ourselves (not to mention others) and how this can mean we don't address the real underlying reasons why we often struggle to achieve our health and weight loss goals. Do you call yourself, 'lazy', 'greedy' 'useless'? Then this is for you.

I am also delighted to be joined by Kat Paylor-Bent, an Adaptive Fasion Designer, Wheelchair user and advocate for inclusivity. We explore Kat's life changing injury 16 years ago, and how she and her family have worked hard to adapt and build a life around this and other challenges. inspirational, insightful and well worth a listen!

Kat Paylor-Bent is a wheelchair using Fashion and Inclusion expert. 

She acquired my injury 16 years ago, and she is in the unenviable position of being on both sides of the disability fence, but this hasn't stopped her. Instead, she has used her passion for life to highlight the need for more equality and inclusion within the fashion industry. 

Clothing is a universal right for every human, yet those in the disabled community encounter barriers every day of their life to functional, comfortable and above all fashionable clothing. Seated Sewing was founded to provide bespoke outfits for the disabled community. 

Kat also co-founded Seated Perspectives with Isaac Harvey, which provides access videos that help to showcase good accessibility of venues. All too often venues, be that business or leisure facilities have got exceptional access and facilities but they don’t shout about it. So the videos we create help to showcase facilities and advertise it to the wider disabled community.

Kat wants to use her platform to change that narrative and make the world more equitable and inclusive.

In today's episode I share some thoughts on the power of our default habits and how they are what we always return to when the pressure of life is on. I explain why this is the case and offer a way to break from the default by confronting what is really the issue when it comes to making changes.

This week I share some thoughts on overcoming people pleasing and am joined by Owen Ryan, aka OMJ Ryan published author and crime fiction writer.

He shares some great insights into what shaped his journey and some takeaways for anyone seeking to follow their own dream. Owen has published 11 books in the 'Silent...' range of crime/ serial killer books featuring the lead character - DCI Jane Phillips. Loved talking to Owen about his journey and i'm a little jealous of his writing prowess and success too!

Owen spent the first twenty years of his career working in the radio and entertainment industry across the UK and Australia, collaborating with household names, celebrities and music icons and accumulating a host of international writing and radio awards, before taking the leap into full time writing in 2018.

Since then, he’s published 11 titles including an Amazon UK best-seller and sold close to quarter of a million copies of his Detective Jane Phillips series. 

Born and bred in Yorkshire, he’s lived and worked in a variety of cities across the UK including Leeds, Manchester, Sheffield and Glasgow, as well as Sydney and Melbourne in Australia, before settling in the north east of England with his wife Kim and young son Vaughan.
