  • Changing Default Habits That Undermine Our Weight-Loss Efforts

    Changing Default Habits That Undermine Our Weight-Loss Efforts
    Jul 18 2024

    It's episode134.

    This week I explore how to change our default habits. The habits that tend to consistently undermine our health and weight-loss efforts are often pretty well rooted and can be tough to change. Consequently we can resort to avoidance as a strategy to give ourselves the illusion of action whilst not actually making any significant or sustained change. I share two kinds of classic avoidance that we need to guard against and share an approach to tackling the changing of our default habits, rituals and routines.

  • Tackling Imposter Syndrome - Emma Johnson

    Tackling Imposter Syndrome - Emma Johnson
    Jul 11 2024

    It's episode133.

    This week I am joined by Emma Johnson, an expert in tacking imposter syndrome. Typically we may think of imposter syndrome as affecting career aspirations and so on, but I see it playing out in so many instances when it comes to aspiring to and working towards losing weight. Recognising the various ways in which imposter syndrome can show up is really useful in order to tackle it effectively. It need not undermine or derail your health and weight-loss efforts.

    Emma is a passionate trainer, coach and facilitator specialising in Leadership, Management and soft skills development. She has set up and run Learning and development functions and throughout her career she has been recognised for ensuring development activities are designed to meet real business challenges, while contributing to business success. In recognition of her achievements, she was awarded the IPA CPD Gold for 8 years running, as well as holding IPA CPD Platinum for 4 consecutive years.

    Emma has seen firsthand in her 20 years of training and coaching delivery how Imposter Syndrome impacts almost everyone, at every level in the workplace. Emma works with people at every stage of their career to help them better understand how to muzzle the inner critic and achieve their potential at work.

    You can do this - getting back on track
    Jun 27 2024

    It's episode132.

    This week I want to not only offer encouragement to keep going, but some practical ways to reframe failure and get back on track. We can often feel so defeated that we find it really hard to move on from a setback or falling off our plans. That's human. But how do we pick ourselves back up. I share two ways to deal with failure and three ways to get back on track.
