Crave

Creating a life you crave is easier said than done sometimes, there can be many obstacles to painting your dream; your courage (or lack of) to take action, the ability to be consistant, letting go of the status quo, stepping into an expanded version of yourself. . . and many more!! But this is the ONE thing that stops so many of us - myself included. Does it stop you? Check yourself to see if you...

Crave is a live, online group coaching programme for women who want to lose weight for life. we start 19th February 2024 - there are limited spaces available.

Hey! I used to think a "word of the year" was BS, like just another thing to write in my diary and it would often fall flat - I can't even remember past words....And then last year I had a break-through with word of the year and I'm all in! In this episode I share how I choose a word of the year, and a few other ways you could play with. I also share how I started to use my word...

What is your deepest fear? I'll tell you about mine on the podcast. Life goes so fast, and our fears control us sooooo deeply without us even noticing. There are so many things we don't do - because our brain spots potential danger, potential discomfort, potential upset - and says NO. I'll do that on Monday, after Christmas, in the New Year, when I'm ready, once I've ...... You...

This is an episode where you get a little glimpse into how my mind sometimes works....As a Master Certified Equus Coach and Facilitator, (the only one in NZ) I sometimes take clients out into the paddock or round-pen with horses! (NO riding involved) and from there we learn together about what the client is facing, how they're currently responding and navigating their situation, and the opport...

How well do you perfom under pressure? Do you use food as a way to shut down? Do you plan for pressure? Do you see the pressure on your weight loss map? What if you could see where the pressure was going to come on, and instead of shutting down (eating) use those pressure moments to change, not only your weight, but your capacity to deal with pressure! Guys Christmas is COMING and with it all the...

Do you review? My coach was asking me this the other day in relation to my business. And then my friend asked me the same thing! I thought I was great at reviewing but then when we got into the nitty gritty of it, and he talked me through his review and reflection process - I realised mine was rather flimsy. I write a journal, I keep notes, I ask myself questions and answer them in my journal - I...

"My family's coming for the holidays and I haven't lost the weight! I feel so irritated with myself. I know they won't say anything but they'll be judging me - I know what they'll be thinking" Does this sound familiar? If they holidays are coming and you want to feel really good about yourself, regardless of your weight you'll want to start here. This isn't an...

This is a bit of a tricky podcast. I'm talking about a client who has a "weight problem", who suddenly realises she could easily solve that "problem" for herself, that maintaining a weight problem has been a way of hiding from what might happen if she lost weight..... It's an interesting podcast as we look at what other "problems" might your weight loss be hel...

Have a big, busy day - and use food to slow yourself down? Heres how to do something different - so you stop using food ie: overeating! Join Crave 1:1 Coaching ⁠Email Kate⁠ : Hello@kateapanui.com

During this episode I talk about something I learned when I was in labour with my second baby - the way physical pain taught me how to deal with emotional pain and discomfort. I believe that in the moments when we feel adrift, lost, or disturbed by the events of our lives, we're being called home to ourselves / our hearts / our true nature. Without this pain we wouldn't know our true capac...

I know self care can be such an easy thing to write off, when we look at our busy lives it can easily fall to the bottom of the list, I have certainly been guilty of the the old "I'll get started tomorrow" or "I don't have time".  The thing is journaling, sitting in silence or taking a dance break can feel like such a waste of time when we're under pressure or feeling like there are so many o...

Do you want to feel good enough? Do you want to value yourself more? Do you want to love yourself or even like yourself more? Heres what one of the things I do, and my perspective on self love.... 3 breaths and a slide - by Sonia Choquette https://soniachoquette.net/ Kate Apanui www.kateapanui.com Facebook https://www.facebook.com/kate.apanui Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/groups/80526020...

**Please Note - salty language is used right off the bat in this episode - so you may want to consider headphones if you have your kids around ** When I ask my clients “how will you feel when you lose the weight?” so often the response is along the lines of “I’ll feel so much more confident”. And in my experience - while it’s a lovely feeling to slip on a pair of jeans and have them feel comfortab...

Welcome to Crave 2023! The podcast about Craving, and creating what we crave….. Craving chocolate isn’t about chocolate. It’s about craving experience, expansion and lives that hummm. Crave is not just a podcast for women who want to change the way they think feel and act around food….it’s becoming so much more! Today I’m sharing a little of my own experience in what helped me create lasting chang...

So often women try to lose weight by controlling themselves.  We say "I'm just going say no to chocolate"  or "I'm only eating paleo"  etc. Now I'm not saying there's anything wrong with cutting out chocolate or eating a paleo diet.  BUT when we use control as a way to get ourselves to do ANYTHING it typically backfires..... is this your experience?   When we try to c...

Ladies!  Are you feeling the pressure of Christmas? I said to my husband last night "it feels like we're haemorrhaging  money at the moment!"   Do you meet up with your friends and talk about; "how hectic and crazy is it at the moment?!" Is your calendar bulging with so many events, traditions, kids request and family meals that your head is spinning? Do you find yourself mindlessly...

Last week we discussed fundamental lies. The way things happen or don't happen for us early on in life, and then our brains tell a story about that event....In last weeks episode I used the example of a kid who's the only one in his class not invited to a birthday party, and what the kid might make that mean; "I'm not good enough / why don't they like me / what's wrong with me /  there's some...

My apologies the sound quality on this episode isn’t great! A new mic is in the post - but I’ve kept the episode up as I still believe it’s valuable. So you couldn't make it the other night? Don't live in Tauranga? Don't live in NZ? I've got you covered...... a little while ago I was asked to speak at an event to raise funds for lung cancer research, and my friend Alice, who has lung cancer and a...

Pain is something we're hardwired to avoid. We're not taught how to deal with it at school - Yes there's a lot of talk about resilience, and now great it is to fail, and "I just have succeeded YET."  But quite honestly my perspective is, that a lot of the adults teaching this, believe it, and know its true, but equally have difficulty experiencing this in their own lives, accepting and dealing wit...

As women, we "know" we're affected by our hormones, and depending on the time of the month we experience things differently. But even if we're tracking things with a cycle app - we can still miss the obvious - KNOWING we can be affected isn't the same as watching ourselves go through it and resting into the rhythm of our bodies wisdom and changes. This is why I reccomend women use a paper tracker...

Grab a new idea, some inspiration in the next 10 minutes. These are fun, short, sharp episodes that will give you some food for thought - yes pun intended. So if you're wondering about your eating habits - take a look at who you're hanging out with. What are they people in your life like?  How do they view food?  Is food a way you connect? Do you all have an unspoken agreement you can ea...
