The Real Weight Loss Coach

Do you feel stuck in a rut? Sometimes (or all the time) we go round and round on the same problem, circumstance or chocolate addiction wondering why we never change, despite knowing what is good for us. The good news is that rut is changeable, the rut is real but it’s changeable and it’s due to a natural biological mechanism called neuroplasticity which is your ability to rewire your own brain, fr...

If you’re having hairy challenges right now, this episode is for you.  On...

Sadly our world is designed for failure but we rarely recognize that fact as our reality. Sugar is everywhere, soda is everywhere, screens and social media are everywhere and it’s hard to go 5 seconds without having some level of anxiety about all of that! Which is why we need to change the environment of our lives to one that is designed for success. I call this creating conditions for success an...

Do you fall off the healthy eating bandwagon after you start a new diet? It’s super common because all of these rules and restrictions really aren’t that fun and make us feel limited when being healthy should feel anything but limiting and restrictive - who wants to be healthy if that’s what you get. Of course having boundaries with food and your environment is necessary so that you do choose the...

Ever wondered why your sex life is non-existent? Or is it so much of an effort to “get in the mood” that it’s just not worth it? The sad reality for men, is that testosterone is at epidemic lows and that results in sad, depressed, overweight and unwell men.

If I told you that your sugar addiction or your diagnosis was connected to the dirt under your feet, what would you say? I’m guessing many would say that’s a little far fetched. The reality is that every piece of food that you put in your body comes from the soil at some point and the health and nutrition within the soil directly affects the quality of the food. It also is the birthplace of many i...

Is it normal for you to experience stomach issues or cravings AFTER eating? There are a number of reasons for that and one of them is not about your trauma, or your emotional attachment to food. Believe it or not your dieting and medical history can cause a situation in your gut that messes up your microbiome, lowers your stomach acid and leads to pooping out all of the delicious nutrition that yo...

Did you know that fat loss is NOT all about food? Well, there ya go. It is not. I’ve spoken to so many people that were gaslit by their doctors or dieticians because they must have been secretly eating chocolate or pigging out without admitting it. There are in fact a log of reasons why you might be gaining weight or at least not losing weight. On this episode I talk through 10 possible reasons as...

Do you ever feel like food just sits in the pit of your stomach? Sometimes it can feel like a particular diet or food is just not right for our body and so we avoid it despite its wholesome nutrition. What many years of dieting, plant based approaches and simply a diet that lacks the right nutrition can lead to is your gut not being right, stomach acid iddies, microbiome issues and inevitably pain...

Ever struggled to give up a particular food or food group? Surprisingly, it’s often deeper than “I just really like it”. Often foods that invoke a pleasure response come with other emotions and over time this results in an emotional dependency on food that becomes part of our identity and the way we function every day. The untethering process can be tricky but is absolutely possible and the first...

How scary that we’re in a place where 1 in every 2 people will get cancer?! It’s scary stuff give the fact cancer has been touted as the ultimate pinnacle of human suffering, which creates a global mindset towards the disease of utter surrender to how awful it is. But there is a lot that can done alongside conventional therapy and in today’s episode we get stuck into using Algae as a chelator and...

Do you call yourself an ‘All in or All’ out person? If you said yes then I want to ask - do you want the good news or the bad news first? The thing is if being all in worked then we wouldn’t need to be here, right? And so we have to think differently about the way we commit to things which is what this episode is all about. Restructuring the way we think about commitment so that we don’t continue...

What constitutes a superfood exactly? It’s hard to figure out since it feels like everything that has ever come out of the grown has had its day in the marketing limelight of superfood stardom. However, Algae, is one food that I legitimately believe deserves this label and this podcast will introduce you to the best Pr campaign for a whole real food that you’ve ever heard. There is so much good to...

Do you wish that life was different? Or even just your own body? Aside from the few people that have genuinely had bad luck (and it really is only just a few) the rest of us are writing our own stories. The sad truth is that if we're NOT writing our own stories, we become part of the carnage of someone else’s and that means that we don’t take ownership or direction of our life. Without a life...

Does your memory not quite work as well as it used to? Are your kids not doing that well at school? It’s probably no surprise that social media, phone addicted world is causing physical destruction to our brains. That destruction for many ends up in what is often an unnecessary and under researched diagnosis of ADHD or anxiety and the long-term outcome for the direction that that persons life will...

Do you want to be happy? It seems like we’ve been told since we were little kids and yet we no longer really need to pursue it. Things that give us pleasure and joy are absolutely everywhere. In our pockets, in our fridge, in the 24 hour service station down the road. There is so much happiness that it’s causing the opposite problem. So we have to take life by the horns and do it unconventionally...

What was your health goal this year? Did you write it down? Are you getting closer? The annoying thing about goals is most of them end up in the graveyard of hopes and dreams that were never fully embodied and that’s because we are sold a myth about goal setting from a very young age. Time to rewrite that story so you live the life you really want rather than the life you surrender into thinking i...

Do you wish that healthcare was done differently? If you said yes, HOPE has arrived. As our cancer and metabolic disease numbers continue to go up every year it has become clear to many that the modern healthcare system is broken because whilst it makes billions in profit, no one really gets better. In fact studies show with the top cancer drugs it extends life by an average of 2.4 months. Bring i...

Can you believe some people are able to regulate their sugar cravings? Obviously these people are spawns of the devil or something wild because how in the world?! For the rest of us mere mortals we have to take a different approach to getting control of our food choices and navigating our emotional eating.
