    Setting and achieving goals can be a great way to challenge ourselves and celebrate the strength and power we often didn’t know was inside us. Mastering a new skill or participating in an event can be exciting, empowering and 100% joyful. But, for some - that feeling of success and accomplishment might be a brand new emotion. If you’ve always believed that your body was weak, incapable or wrong - then it’s only natural that you’d want to hold on to and recreate those positive emot...

  • Replay - EP 47 - Strong and Fit at Any Size - Natalie's Story
    There’s no escaping the messaging in the fitness industry that thinner is better. When all we hear is “burn this, sculpt that, tone this, lose that”, it’s implied that the way to achieve any fitness goal is through weight loss. Whether we want to get stronger, improve our flexibility, have more endurance, decrease joint pain…. The prescribed solution is usually “lose weight”. And conversely, if we gain weight we assume it means we will struggle with all of these things. In t...

  • EP 80 - You Gotta Do the Work to Get Results - Jennifer's Story
    On today’s episode, we are joined by Jennifer, a participant in the Right Body for Me coaching program. Like many women, Jennifer spent her life cycling from one diet to another, never finishing or finding “success” with any of them. But, she continued to believe that losing weight was the answer to all her struggles and always hoped that the next one would “work” and she’d feel better. Eventually she realized that dieting wasn’t working and she started dabbling in the non-diet approach...

  • EP 79 - Movement for Functionality - Kimberly’s Story
    In this episode, we are joined by Kimberly, a virtual personal training client of mine. Kimberly had been doing great work with another coach around her relationship to food and body image, but was having difficulty engaging in movement without focusing on calorie burning or body shaping.

Molly shares her body image story, illustrating how the quest to feel better in the face of a health challenge by restricting certain foods, resulted in weight loss and unexpected praise. This led Molly down the slippery slope of finding validation in eating clean, being disciplined with food and exercise, and a “role model” for health - and she shares how damaging it was to her relationship with food, exercise, h...

  • EP 76 - Pre and Post Workout Fuel...the Intuitive Way
    If you’ve ever taken part in any fitness challenges, then you’ll no doubt have heard how important it is to fuel your body properly before, during and after workouts to make sure that you get the best possible results. And if you’ve heard that, then you’re also likely very familiar with the precise measuring, weighing, timing and tracking that goes along with it.

  • EP 75 - Fuelling Your Body with Gentle Nutrition
    One of the most common questions I get from clients is “what’s the best way to eat to fuel my body so I can feel and function my best…without dieting”. The average woman tries 60+ diets by the age of 45, each one a little different from the next, and each one claiming that theirs is the “healthiest” or “right” way to eat. So it is no wonder we feel completely confused and overwhelmed about how to feed ourselves. Nutrition and eating DOES seem complicated. The diet and fitness indu...
