    I'm taking a little break. Just having a few weeks off. While I do that I'm giving you the replays of some of my most popular episodes.

    Whether you've heard them before or not, I encourage you to give these replays a listen and see if you notice anything new. Just a heads up, there may be some outdated details like my previous business name and social media handles, so be sure to check the show notes for accurate information.


    Intuitive eating helps improve your relationship with food, but the desire to lose weight can often remain, so can you use intuitive eating for weight loss? This week I'm talking about whether or not it is possible to be an intuitive eater and lose weight at the same time.

    Let’s have a good natter about the will to lose weight, the correlation between weight and health, mindset, values, goals, and what to do if you’re in that middle ground between wanting to lose weight and wanting to be an intuitive eater.

    Jul 21 2024

    Send me a message - text me!

    I'm taking a little break. Just having a few weeks off. While I do that I'm giving you the replays of some of my most popular episodes.

    Whether you've heard them before or not, I encourage you to give these replays a listen and see if you notice anything new. Just a heads up, there may be some outdated details like my previous business name and social media handles, so be sure to check the show notes for accurate information.

    In this episode, we explore the ways to kickstart your journey away from dieting and into intuitive eating.

    If you have started intuitive eating, this is a good time to bring your focus back. But if you’re new to it, here are a few starting points to get going with it:

    ✨ How can you begin intuitive eating today?

    ✨ Are you aware of the impact of diet culture in your surroundings?

    ✨ Are you in tune with your body's cues for hunger and fullness?

    ✨ What does your mealtime routine look like at home?

    ✨ Do you give yourself intentional, focused time to eat?

    ✨ Are distractions keeping you from listening to your inner intuitive eater?

    ✨Are you mindful of what you're eating, or is it mindless eating?

    ✨Are you introducing foods you truly enjoy into your diet?

    ✨Have you decluttered your social media of negativity?

    Remember, the beauty of intuitive eating lies in its pace. Take your time, embrace these principles gradually, and grow comfortable with each step along the way.

  • 136. {REPLAY} Why it's not your fault that you're a serial dieter
    Jul 15 2024

    Send me a message - text me!

    I'm taking a little break. Just having a few weeks off. While I do that I'm giving you the replays of some of my most popular episodes.

    Whether you've heard them before or not, I encourage you to give these replays a listen and see if you notice anything new. Just a heads up, there may be some outdated details like my previous business name and social media handles, so be sure to check the show notes for accurate information.

    This one is by far the most listened to, so I thought we'd start here!

    It seems when I started this podcast we were just coming out of the dreaded lockdowns, so it was odd listening back to how I was talking about taking a trip into town and finally getting a long overdue bra fitting.

    But the main topic of the episode is the reasons why it's not your fault if you find yourself constantly yo-yo dieting. I discuss the impact of diet culture and beauty standards on our subconscious and how it affects our self-image. I also share some eye-opening observations from a week-long experiment I conducted to track the prevalence of diet and beauty-related content in our daily lives.

    I also touch on the first principle of intuitive eating, which is rejecting the diet mentality. It's a challenging process, especially when we're constantly bombarded with messages that reinforce unrealistic beauty standards.

    Plus I share a positive encounter where individuals engaged in an actual sensible conversation about weight loss and overall health!

    Whether you're new to intuitive eating or not, this is a great one to listen to and get some awareness of the influences around you on your eating habits and body confidence.

    Jun 17 2024

    Send me a message - text me!

    Today, for a bit of fun, I’m bringing you my 10 commandments of dieting. Let’s break some rules of dieting. From ‘thou shalt worship the scale’ to ‘Thou shalt find salvation in achieving the 'ideal' weight’, and all the commandments in between.

    I'm talking about carbs and calories, trends and exercise, social media and food validation, body acceptance and comparison. So much to talk about, so many rules to break!

    I also couldn’t let this episode pass by without a mention of Bridgerton. No spoilers though I promise. And we have a new family member. The Tales From The Cat Diaries may be coming back!

  • 132. I wish I could still wear that
    Jun 2 2024

    Send me a message - text me!

    I looked at some photos recently and caught myself saying "I wish I could still wear that,", but do I really??

    I’m taking a somewhat nostalgic journey through the fashion trends of yesteryears. From shell suits and banana clips to heather shimmer lipstick and mini skirts, I’m reminiscing about my past fashion choices and reflecting on what still appeals to me today (hint, not very much of it!!).

    This is why I’m talking about the evolution of her personal style and the importance of wearing clothes that make you feel confident and comfortable, no matter your age or current trends. It’s all about personal preference in fashion and finding your own style, making shopping enjoyable, and dressing for yourself rather than for others' opinions.

    Get ready for a delightful mix of fashion nostalgia, and practical advice!

  • 131. Journaling for intuitive eating and body confidence
    May 19 2024

    Send me a message - text me!

    In this week’s episode I’m going to guide you through the incredible benefits of journaling as a tool for supporting your body positivity and intuitive eating journey.
    Journaling has helped me confront and change negative beliefs about my body and self-worth so I wanted to share some tips with you too.

    I’m talking about,

    ✏️How writing helps process thoughts more efficiently.
    ✏️What to use to be able to journal.
    ✏️Ideas for what you can journal on.
    ✏️When to journal.
    ✏️How journaling helps you to question and change external beliefs.
    ✏️How to keep your writing private.
    ✏️How it can become a habit that provides comfort and relief.
    ✏️How journaling can be imperfect and messy.
    ✏️How it’s ok to be negative in your journaling.

    I encourage everyone to give journaling a try and would love to hear about both your new and seasoned journaling experiences.

    Before I get into that though, I’ve got loads to waffle on about. Podcast acoustics, the northern lights, the shockingly high prices in Iceland (the shop, not the country!), and the incredible documentary from Aubrey Gordon, "Your Fat Friend".

    Also, a highlight of today’s show for me is getting to read out a heart-warming piece of fan mail that truly touched me, praising the authenticity and realness of this podcast. Your support means everything, so thank you Jo.
