Dahlia is joined by Angela Foster, Nutritionist, Health and Performance Coach to discuss stress, mindset and how to make a choice about where in life we want to have a 'high performance' output.

Angela shares her journey and how her own health challenges led her from Lawyer to working in the wellness industry, understanding her body and making a considered choice about how to live her life, where to focus her efforts and what it means to be a high performer.

Dahlia and Angela discuss the fact that women lead in many areas of their lives (at work/at home) but are they leading their own life and staying true their values or are they allowing themselves to be 'led' by the environment or situation they find themselves in?

Angela shares tips on managing stress and improving mindset and also reflects on the link between clothes and high performance in her own work.

1.Mirror Tip: Practice a Neutral Focus

Next time you look in the mirror, resist the urge to zoom in on what you don’t like. Instead, pick one neutral thing to focus on — maybe the colour of your eyes, the curve of your shoulders, or the way light catches your hair.

Spend 30 seconds simply noticing it without judgment. The goal isn’t to love everything you see, but to break the habit of criticism and start seeing yourself with calm eyes rather than critical ones.

2. Notice the Language You Use About Yourself

Pay attention to the words and tone you use when you talk to or about yourself today.

When you catch a harsh or critical thought - ‘I look awful’, ‘I hate my legs…, pause and ask, ‘Would I speak to a friend like that’?

Then try to reframe it into something kinder and more realistic, such as:

‘My legs help me move through the day’.

‘My body is doing its best to support me’.

‘I don’t have to love everything I see to treat myself with respect’.

You’re not aiming for instant body love, just gentler, fairer language. Over time, that small shift can change how you feel in your own skin.

3. Daily Kindness Question

Each morning, ask yourself: ‘What’s one small act of care I can give my body today?’

It could be something simple like taking five deep breaths, choosing a nourishing meal, stepping outside for fresh air, or going to bed 20 minutes earlier.

Write your answer somewhere you’ll see it (your phone, planner, or mirror) and commit to doing it beforethe day ends.

These small, consistent acts of kindness are what rebuild trust with your body over time.
