  • How Cristina lost 10kgs in 12 weeks while working 2 jobs and with 3 kids
    Jul 13 2025

    In this episode, I sit down with my incredible client Cristina, who lost 10kgs in just 12 weeks – all while working two jobs, navigating menopause, and being a mum to three kids.

    If you’ve ever felt like your schedule is too full or your circumstances too complicated to prioritise your health, Cristina’s story will blow your mind. She’s living proof that with the right structure, support, and mindset shifts, you can achieve amazing results without giving up your life.

    Cristina came to me at a point where she felt completely stuck – juggling a demanding schedule, going through menopause, and feeling like she had no control over her eating habits or body anymore. Fast forward 12 weeks, and not only did she lose 10kgs (despite an injury that limited her exercise), but she also completely changed her relationship with food and rediscovered her confidence.

    We Chat About:
    • How Cristina managed her weight loss while working full-time as a financial controller AND teaching group fitness classes
    • Why structured support was a game-changer for her success
    • The simple nutrition changes that made the biggest difference (hint: fewer coffees, more real meals!)
    • How she created a sustainable routine around food prep and eating – even with a packed schedule
    • What she’s doing now, 6 weeks after finishing the program, and how her new habits are still sticking!

    Cristina is an inspiring example of how you can feel in control of your health, no matter what’s on your plate – literally and figuratively. I know her story will empower you to take that first step, too.

  • Why "healthy eating" isn't going to solve your overeating problem
    Jul 6 2025

    Today’s episode is a heart-to-heart I know so many of you need to hear. You’re eating clean, meal prepping like a boss, and doing all the right things… yet you're still finding yourself standing in front of the fridge at 9PM eating way past fullness.

    Sound familiar?

    Well, I’m here to tell you that the problem isn’t your food choices. It’s not your willpower. And it’s definitely not that you need another “better” meal plan.

    In this episode, I’m sharing the truth about why simply focusing on healthy eating won’t fix your overeating habits… and why it might even be making things worse.

    Here’s what you’ll learn:

    • The two main reasons most women gain weight (hint: it’s not because you’re “bad” at dieting)
    • Why bingeing on “healthy” foods is still bingeing—and how emotional triggers play a role
    • How eating past fullness, guilt, and all-or-nothing thinking keep you stuck in the diet cycle
    • The real solution to stop overeating without restriction, tracking, or obsession

    You’ll also hear personal stories from my own journey (hello, granola bar binges I didn’t even like 😅), and practical steps to help you shift from diet mindset to food freedom.

    If you’ve ever felt like you “should” be able to stick to healthy eating but keep sabotaging yourself, this one’s for you.

These tips are designed specifically for high-achieving women who are juggling a million things but still want to feel confident, energized, and happy in their skin, without calorie counting, food tracking, or exhausting gym routines.

  • Eat more, lose weight: 5 science-backed habits that actually work
    Jun 15 2025

    What if I told you that the key to finally losing weight (and keeping it off) might not be eating less... but eating more?

    I know, I know… it sounds completely backwards, especially when we’ve been conditioned to believe that weight loss means restriction, smaller portions, skipping meals, and cutting out the foods we love. But I’m here to flip the script and show you a much more sustainable, evidence-based way.

    In this episode, I’m sharing 5 powerful, science-backed habits that will actually help you eat more and lose weight, without calorie counting, restricting carbs, or spending hours at the gym. These are the exact habits I teach inside my program and the same ones I used to maintain my 11kg weight loss effortlessly for years.

    Here’s what you’ll learn:

    ✨ Why eating less might be the actual reason you're not losing weight

    ✨ How outdated diet advice is keeping you stuck and frustrated

    ✨ 5 realistic habits you can start implementing right now to boost fat loss

    ✨ Why protein (especially at breakfast!) is a game-changer

    ✨ The one shift that helped me (and my clients) go from yo-yo dieting to feeling free and in control around food

    I also open up about my personal story… how I started dieting at 13, what a nutritionist once told me to do (spoiler: it made things worse), and how I finally broke free from diet culture by focusing on nourishing, not depriving, my body.

    If you’ve ever felt like your body is “broken,” or you’re doing everything “right” and still not seeing results… this episode is for you.

    Let’s break free from food rules and start doing what actually works for real women with real lives.

    Grab your coffee and notebook… we’re diving in!

    This episode is close to my heart because I know firsthand how hard it can be to lose weight when your life is go-go-go. Between demanding jobs, meetings, kids, businesses, and the general chaos of life, it’s easy to feel like sustainable weight loss is just out of reach. But here’s the thing – it’s not.

    In today’s episode, I’m sharing the exact approach I use with my clients inside my programs to help time-poor women finally lose weight without tracking, restricting, or spending hours in the kitchen or gym.

    Here’s what I walk you through in this episode:

    + Why the “eat less, move more” advice doesn’t work when your schedule is already packed

    + How most traditional weight loss plans are designed for women without your responsibilities (and what to do instead)

    + The 3 practical, life-changing strategies I teach inside my Accelerator Program that allow you to lose weight without losing your mind

    + The #1 mistake I see women making when they’re “too busy to eat”... and why it’s sabotaging your progress

    + A better, flexible way to eat that actually fits your lifestyle and fuels your body (without hangry 3pm crashes!)

    If you’ve ever felt like you're doing “all the right things” but nothing is working, this episode is a must-listen. You are not broken – you’ve just been following broken advice.

    This episode is also the perfect intro to what I teach inside my 3-week Accelerator Program. And just a reminder – the doors are closing this Friday. This isn’t a false urgency – I’m closing them to fully support the women who join. If you’re curious, don’t wait.

    You deserve to feel good in your body now, not “when life calms down.” And I’m here to help you do that in a way that works with your busy life – not against it. 💪

    🎧 Tune in, take notes, and let’s ditch the all-or-nothing mindset for good.

  • Is your evening glass of wine holding back your weight loss?
    May 25 2025

    Today’s episode is one that so many of you will relate to – especially if your evening routine includes a glass (or two) of wine to unwind after a long, chaotic day.

    Let me ask you this... do your nights often end with a glass of wine, some mindless snacking, and a plan to “be better” tomorrow? If so, you’re not alone – I used to live in that exact cycle too.

    But here’s the truth: the wine isn’t the problem.

    In this episode, I’m unpacking what’s really behind your evening habits and how the choices you make earlier in the day are what truly determine your night-time cravings and self-control. This episode is going to help you break the cycle of restriction → willpower → guilt → repeat.

    You’ll learn:

    ✨ Why your evening cravings (and wine habits) are just a symptom of unmet needs earlier in the day

    ✨ The real reason why more willpower won’t fix your nighttime eating habits

    ✨ How nourishment, not restriction, is the key to consistency and weight loss

    ✨ The exact structure and eating routine I recommend to clients that stops over-drinking and overeating in its tracks

    ✨ How to treat your health with the same level of importance as your business, work, or family

    We’re flipping the script from “I just need more control” to “I just need more support.” If your days are go-go-go and you find yourself collapsing into the evening feeling depleted and out of control, this episode is for you.

    Let’s shift from surviving to thriving – without cutting out wine, and without the all-or-nothing mindset.

    🎧 Tune in now and start creating an evening you’re actually proud of.
