Moving to a new country can be an exciting adventure - and it can also mean big changes to the routines that support our fitness and health.

In this episode of the Move More Podcast, I talk about how relocation can affect our movement habits, fitness routines and nutrition - something I’ve seen first-hand over the past 8 years working with English clients living in France.

A move abroad presents both opportunities and challenges. It can interrupt the routines and support systems that once kept us active - and it can also create a rare moment to reset habits and build a new lifestyle that fits this chapter of life.

In this episode, I explore both sides of that experience and share practical ideas for maintaining or rebuilding momentum when life changes.

I talk about:

• The unexpected opportunities relocation can create for new habits
• How moving country can disrupt movement and health routines
• How environment, culture, and social circles influence our activity levels
• The challenges of language barriers, infrastructure, and starting again
• Simple ways to maintain and regain momentum, during and after a big move  

If you’ve moved to another country, are planning a relocation, or are just curious about the opportunities and challenges, this episode is for you.  

Nutrition can feel confusing - full of rules, complicated, and pressure to do things perfectly. In this episode of the Move More Podcast, I share a behind-the-scenes look at a simple nutrition framework I use with my coaching clients: Plants + Protein (P+P).

This is a flexible, sustainable way of building meals that support strength, energy, and everyday wellbeing - without overcomplicating food.

In this episode, I explain the core idea behind the P+P approach and answer questions from clients who are currently working through my nutrition programme.

I talk about:

• How nutrition fits into my coaching  

• How focusing on plants and protein helps create balanced, satisfying meals

• Why no foods need to be removed - and how this is an additive, not restrictive, approach

• Simple ways to apply P+P to meals you already eat

If you want an approach to eating that supports your training, fits your life, and reduces decision fatigue around food, this episode will give you an insight into my approach from 1:1 coaching.

When it comes to healthy bodies and minds, walking is one of the best actions that we can take. It can do so much good for our physical and mental health - both in the moment that we’re doing it, and long-term. 

In this episode I cover:

• Why walking is such an important movement for health and longevity
• How around 8k steps/day offers huge benefits for heart health, mood, energy, bone density, metabolic health and more
• How walking helps you feel good now and supports your future self
• Simple ways to design your environment and daily routine to walk more even with a busy life, without relying on motivation or huge time commitments.

This episode can help you understand why all of us can benefit from walking, and help you build this into your day in a way that’s realistic and sustainable.

Cold weather can make movement feel harder - darker mornings, shorter days, and the pull of staying cosy indoors. But winter doesn’t have to mean losing your rhythm. 

In this episode, I share practical tips to help you keep moving outdoors in ways that feel good, even when the temperature drops.

I talk about

• How to prepare before you head out: Mindset shifts, layering, planning, warm-ups
• What to focus on during your movement: Comfort, enjoyment, noticing your surroundings
• How to build motivation after you’re done: Celebrating wins, acknowledging how movement makes you feel, setting yourself up for tomorrow).

Whether you love winter or you’re someone who finds this time of year challenging, this episode will give you simple ways to stay consistent, enjoy the outdoors, and feel better in your body and mind through the colder months.

In this episode, I explore bodyweight training. There are so many reasons to love bodyweight training and incorporate it - it’s effective, for all levels, and low friction. 

I share what bodyweight training is, how it fits into a training programme and why I love it.

I talk about common myths, the health and strength benefits, and why bodyweight training is such a powerful option if you want to move consistently - even when life gets busy, you’re travelling, or you don’t have access to a gym.

I also explain how bodyweight training can build skill , the importance of skills-based training, and how it can form a strong foundation for adding weights later.

If you want a way to train that’s flexible, gets you stronger and moving better, and is interesting for body and mind, this episode will help you understand how to use bodyweight training.

Understanding why movement really matters to you can make it easier to find movement you love and stick with it.  

In this episode, I talk about exploring why you move: what’s your personal reason for moving that goes beyond short-term plans or motivation? This episode is for anyone who already moves, or wants to move more, or feels stuck in the stop-start cycle. It’s especially helpful if you feel stuck, overwhelmed by options, or tired of starting and stopping.

I talk about how it helps to identify why you move, and share practical tips for connecting movement with what really matters to you and your life.

For many of us Christmas brings lots of changes — more socialising, later nights, fuller calendars, different food, and more time indoors. 

In this episode, I explore how holding onto a few supportive habits can help you feel good right through to the end of the year. I cover sleep, movement, time outdoors, nutrition, alcohol, and the mindset that ties it all together.

This isn’t about restriction, missing out, pushing harder, or doing things perfectly. It’s about choosing what helps you feel your best in a way that fits your priorities and preferences, however that looks for you.

It’s about enjoying the moments that matter, holding the habits that help, and moving into January feeling good, and aren’t ‘starting again’. If you want a Christmas that feels good now and sets you up for the year ahead, this episode is for you.
