Thin + beautiful? We need to change the story…
What I know now is that overeating is merely a symptom of something much, much deeper.
I missed the point with my own struggles, as I kept trying to restrict myself, following diet after diet. Every new failed attempt shocked me – another dent in my self-esteem.
I’d been focusing on the symptom of my overeating, rather than the cause.
It’s no coincidence that each time in my life I have struggled with my identity and self-worth, that’s also when I’ve struggled most with over-eating and putting on weight.
Maybe you’re the same? If so, then keep reading – because in this blog you’ll get 5 simple strategies to start improving your self-worth right now.

A new social experiment. Sober AND more fun?!
Anyone who knows me knows I like a drink. I may have moved on from the dancing on the table & shot drinking days – but it’s always been part of my identity.
I always thought it made me more interesting & gave me Dutch courage. A few too many usually ended in much hilarity, making me reluctant to look too far into this particular habit.
The hard truth about Nutrition Coaching
95% of diets don’t work for long-term weight loss. It’s a shocking statistic (and one I quote often). But here’s the thing. Sometimes, my programs don’t work either. There. I said it!
Are you suffering from Weekend-itis?
Don’t worry – I have a cure for you. It’s the weekend. Woo hoo! Let’s eat, drink and be merry to reward our virtuous behaviour all week. Picture the scene. You’ve been eating well all week, sticking to ‘the plan’. But the clock hits 5pm on Thursday or Friday night and suddenly it all goes out the window.
How to curb your pre-menstrual cravings!
Picture the scene. You’ve taken some giant leaps towards living a healthier lifestyle. You’re feeling in control around food and have managed to fit in some pretty impressive sessions at the gym. It feels good, right?! You’ve finally cracked it! But suddenly, you feel different. The sugary, fatty or salty snacks are calling you from the kitchen and you’re not sure what happened. Until your period arrives. And it all gets much clearer.
Do YOU glorify weight loss?
Have you been working hard on being healthy – but despite all the positive changes, the number on your scales hasn’t moved much?
Honestly – you’re not alone! It’s way more common than you might think.
I see SO many women who’ve made significant healthy changes, with huge benefits
for themselves and those around them. But because the scales aren’t moving enough, they’re ready to throw it all in.
Are you addicted to diets?
When I first decided to stop dieting, I was terrified.
Diets had been a trusted friend since my early teens. Each new diet came with an elaborate promise that often came true. I’d lose some weight, get high on the compliments & feel like a whole new person. This was it!
Big Fat Lies Women Tell Themselves…
“I’m lazy and lack willpower.”
‘I’m disgusting and can’t stop eating junk.’
‘I’m not an exerciser. I just don’t like it and would rather watch TV.’
‘I’ve no self-control and just can’t stick to anything.’
‘I’m fat and will never look good in a bikini.’
Most of us are complete bitches to ourselves. It seems we just can’t help ourselves.
The Keto Diet. Yes or No?
So is Keto the new magic diet you’ve been searching for your whole life?
I do want to help you to get some clarity here, because I’ve had SO many people ask me about the Keto diet lately. One client said that all her friends who’ve lost weight recently have told her it’s from Keto.
Why my sister calling me selfish was a HUGE compliment!
This isn’t a blog about how mean my sister is. She’s the best. And she came to surprise me in Dubai for my 40th birthday last week.
But it IS a blog about how society likes to cast women into a ‘caring’ role. So often, we’re made to feel guilty when we do something that doesn’t directly benefit our kids & others around us. And it needs to stop.
Why turning 40 was NOTHING like I expected!
40 is supposed to be middle-aged. Right? Time to slow things down and trade the dancing shoes for some comfy flats and a forgiving baggy top.
