57. Building Repeatable Habits with Jon

I loved recording this episode with Jon. Knowing the journey he has come on from work and stress ruling his daily and weekly actions - Thursday night whisky, takeaways and skipped gym sessions. To hitting some of his lifetime PBs and losing 15kg in his 40s. Health and fitness are now a big part of his life, but in a way that he can keep repeatable, enjoyable and not his whole life. Jon really keeps it real and honest in this episode and I'm so grateful for his time to chat and share. Give it a listen!

56. From a daily snack to full circle nutrition

Just a short one from me today. We often try to over complicate our nutrition. Instead of looking at the lowest hanging fruit, the easiest place to start, and the smallest shift we can make. It doesn't need to be about huge changes that become unsustainable. But the path of least resistance. Recently my focus has been on mid day energy and nourishing snacks, which has led me down a rabbit hole I never expected. Want to talk about how you can make small shifts?

55. Quoc's Journey from superficial goals that didn't stick, to real health

This episode was awesome to record with my client, Quoc. From a life that centred around work, pushing hard to climb the ladder - between long hours, work socials, regular drinking and smoking as a way to escape stress. To now. Balancing work with spending time with friends at CrossFit and learning what healthy actually means to him. His transformation with making habits really 'sticky' as they say in tech, so that it has just become part of his autopilot mode. It truly was a pleasure to hear about his journey from starting fitness, giving up smoking and finding movement that means something to him.

54. Side stepping from socials

Today Amy talks about some of the shifts she is making to feel more aligned - instead of forcing certain kinds of work, she is leaning into rest and fun activities. Especially through this stormy season in Central Portugal and through transition in life. The last few weeks have been a reminder to listen to the seasons, as our needs often reflect the weather and changes. Our need to rest up and rid baggage in winter, so we have energy to flourish and grow in summer.

53. New Year, New Me Can Get in the BIN

Amy talks about why January may not be the time to jump both feet into a new goal, resolution or transformation. In reality, our bodies are craving and structure, not big changes or restriction - think about it, we're in the middle of winter. Instead using this month to establish routine, compassion and a realistic baseline can set you up for great change from February onward. If you're an active woman and you're struggling with seeing change even though you're doing all the right things. Join our workshop on Sunday 18 January at 6pm. Amy will share more of her journey with never feeling enough and changing that to setting boundaries, doing the inner work and making decisions that align with her goals. Plus the steps that you can take to do the same!
