Rise Above Resistance

Welcome to The Low Carb Keto Health Podcast. Today, Nicole Moore (Accredited Practising Dietitian) and Jody Bund (Professional Health Coach) dive into the complex but empowering process of behaviour change — how we move from thinking “I should” to actually living differently.

We start by mapping the well-researched six stages of change (pre-contemplation, contemplation, preparation, action, maintenance and relapse/termination) and invite you to reflect: where are you in this cycle?

From there, we explore how self-compassion is not a luxury but a vital element of sustainable change. When you release self-judgment and replace it with kindness, you reduce resistance and allow progress — one small step at a time. This isn’t about perfection; it’s about persistence and rewriting your health story one positive choice at a time.

Finally, we talk about goal-setting — but not the “big-bang” goals. Instead, we guide you to set stage-appropriate goals that align with where you are right now. Whether you’re prepping your pantry, booking your first gym session, or just planning a walk, that small step is your launchpad. This episode is crafted especially for women who are ready to rise above resistance, find their tribe, build momentum and make a lasting lifestyle change, the natural next chapter in their story.
