So today I was a bit stuck for an idea for the podcast but I decided to hit record and see what happened, and this is the result!

I talk about the importance of structuring your day and how it can really help you achieve your goals. 

How important rest is when you are doing this and not to forget it. 

That we are so busy being go go go that we forget the reflect on how far we have come. It can really change your perspective when you take some time to look back and see how far that you've come.

And a little about how to put systems in place to stop you procrastinating if this something that you struggle with. 

What kinds of systems do you put in place for this? I'd love to know, drop me a comment letting me know what you do!

In todays solo episode I talk all about fatigue.  I briefly talk about mental fatigue and how its normal and not to worry when it happens.

Signs of training fatigue. Why its especailly important that women listen to them as well.

The importance of knowing when it is training fatigue or just not wanting to do it.

The importnace of listening to your body if it is fatigued and side affects that can happen if you do not listen. 

This is something I've done to myself on more than one occasion and it has led to me with injuries which put me out of action for a fair amount of time so I'm sharing this to help you avoid the mistakes that I made. (more than once)

Yoga is often thought of as a class where you do a few stretches, a lil chill at the end and then go home.. or at least that is what I thought about it when I was younger but it is so much more than that!

Today I talk to Yoga teacher and wellness entrepenuer Margerat Young. She is the owner of Wild Soul yoga and wellness.

We talk all about Yoga, her own journey into becoming a teacher and some of the different styles you can do.

She explaines the differnt types of yoga and how yoga is actually a philosophy and the poses are just one element of yoga as a whole.

We talk some of the common misconceptions about yoga and how you do not need to be young and flexible to do it. 

We also talk about how you never stop learning when it comes to yoga, and becoming and instructor was really only the beginning.

This was a really interesting conversation and great for anyone who is interested in learning more about yoga and maybe interested in starting yoga but don't know where to begin.

Do you feel like you're in a never ending cycle of on diet off diet?

Or Do you feel like you are trapped in a state of binge restrict?

Today I talk to intuitive health coach Bex Brame about diet culture and how she works with people to break free of it for good. 

She talks about her own struggles with constant dieting that, until a bike accident several years ago, she didn't realise how much it had taken over her life. On the outside she looked super fit and healthy but on the inside she was constantly stuggling with the fear that if she missed even one day, she would completely ruin all her previous work.

We talk about how  we have been conditioned over the years into thinking we have to look a certain way, and this feeds into the diets we try over and over again, and how we have forgotten how to listen to our own hunger queues and not even trusting them anymore because of it. 

We talk about how this can show up not just with food, and how over exercising can be just as much a sign of disordered habits as constantly dieting, which some people may not realise. 

This was a really interesting converstation, and you may identify some disordered behaviours you may have from this podcast, and if this is something you struggle with, I would highly recommend contacting bex as she not only has the knowledge to help, but is also really passionate about helping women ditch this cycle for good!

Our hormones play a big role in so many parts of how our body functions.

As women, it's very important that we take care of our hormones so we do not end up with imbalances that can cause other knock-on effects in our bodies.

Today I talked to Nikki Harris and the role they can play when it comes to weight loss as women. Nikki is a nutritional therapist who specialises in hormone health.

We talk about how important our hormones are as women, what can affect hormone levels, including cosmetics and household cleaners and things you can do to bring them back into sync.

We speak about the DUTCH test (Dried Urine Test for Complete Hormones) and how necessary testing can be in order to get to the root of a problem

.We also talk about the importance of weight training for women but also not to overtrain them.

As ever when it comes to natural remedies, do make sure you contact a professional before trying them yourself.

They can interfere with other medications or cause other issues in the body if not managed correctly.

Do you do shift work? Has it affected your eating habits over time?

Today I talk to Steve Griffen, about how afer joining the Guards, and working ever changing shifts led to him putting on a massive amount of weight (156kg at his heaviest). After seeing a picture of himself on holiday's, he decided that it was time to make a change and with the help of coach and friend Paul Dermody (who was also on this podcast see #49). He has lost over 50kg.

We talk about how he previously tried all the fad diets, blaming himself when it didn't work, and that how it was the little things that made the biggest difference Not crazy workout plans or crash diets, but planning his food and doing simple things like walking were what made the biggest differences. 

We also talk about how discipline and planning ahead around his shifts is the real key to success when on a weightloss journey, and that you need to find something that works for you and your shifts.

He is also a cancer surviver, he was diagnosed with an aggressive form of testicular cancer when he was 20 and it was likely that if he didn't go to the doctor when he did, he would not have made his 21st birthday and since then has worked on raising awareness about cancer and not ignoring the signs!
