In this episode, Kirsten Chick, nutritional therapist, educator, and author, joins Cherry Wills to explore how mindful eating, sensory awareness, and metabolic balance can transform your relationship with food. Kirsten explains how slowing down and paying attention to taste, texture, and sensation may help calm the nervous system, switch digestion back on, and support more stable hunger and fullness cues. She also clarifies the difference between intuitive eating and mindful eating, highlighting that genuine intuition only emerges when the body is balanced, blood sugar is stable, and stress is regulated.

This episode covers emotional eating, cravings, and the science behind the cephalic phase of digestion — offering practical tools you can use immediately. Whether you’re a client learning how to reconnect with your body, a practitioner supporting others, or someone wanting a more peaceful relationship with food, this conversation provides grounded insights you can integrate into everyday life.

In this episode, Bryce Davies shares how personalised nutrition helped him break years of weight-loss frustration and finally feel light, energised, and confident again.

At the beginning of the year, Bryce was 92.5 kg and struggling to keep the weight off. He wanted to feel stronger on the hills, improve his running, and age with more ease but nothing seemed to stick.

With the support of his Metabolic Balance practitioner, Katie King, Bryce followed a personalised plan based on his blood work and the changes began quickly.

His cravings settled, he started feeling clearer and more steady throughout the day, and the weight finally stayed off. He reached 80 kg for the first time in years and maintained it.

Bryce’s story is a reminder that sustainable change doesn’t come from restriction it comes from structure, support, and real food that works with your metabolism.
