Not Broken: The Fat Loss and Energy Reset

This one is tough love. If you're here to grow, it's for you. Most women come to me certain their diabetes is the thing holding them back. Their energy, their weight, their control. And almost every time, the real thing holding them back isn't the Type 1. It's the mindset around it. In this episode I talk about the part nobody wants to hear: ownership. Accountability. The quiet

Every coach gives women the same advice for fat loss: eat less, stay in a deficit. For a woman with Type 1, that advice works against you. In this episode I break down why. When you cut calories, your sugar drops, you correct the low with fast sugar, and those calories come right back. So to hold the deficit you end up cutting the only things left — your protein and your fats — the exact things yo...

In this episode I break down why the timing of your carbs matters more than you think - and how a few small changes to when you eat can steady your blood sugar and help the fat actually move. I cover the simple rule of small portions through the day, why you want most of your carbs around movement, and why eating them too late at night works against you. If you've been cutting carbs and gettin...

It took me 20 years to figure out how to eat with Type 1. Cereal for breakfast as a kid sent my blood sugar through the roof. Lunch from my mum — fat and carbs, barely any protein — knocked me out every afternoon. I thought falling asleep after lunch was just normal. Then for years I went the other way — eating too little, in the name of "clean" and "healthy" — and wrecked my s...

Michaela came to me at 30 with a very specific problem: she couldn't function after 5pm. Come home, lie on the sofa, scroll, fall asleep before she meant to, wake up annoyed. She wasn't lazy. She had a brand-new high-pressure job, PCOS, hypothyroidism, and insulin resistance - three separate reasons her body was holding onto weight and draining her energy. In this episode I walk through ex...

Most fat-loss advice for women with Type 1 Diabetes is built around one idea: Eat less. Cut carbs. Cut calories. Cut meals. Skip breakfast. For a T1 body, that approach actively makes you worse. Lower input raises cortisol, raises insulin resistance, raises your insulin demand, and the system you're trying to fix gets more broken every time you eat less. In this episode I walk through the 5 le...

Amalina came to me at 172 kilos with Type 2 diabetes, sciatica, sleep that started at 4am, a body that couldn't make 5,000 steps without ankle pain, and a hospital dietitian's depressing meal list she'd already thrown out. Six months later, she now sleeps by 11pm for the first time in her adult life. She walks faster than her colleagues. She takes the stairs because she wants to. Her blood sugar d...

I was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes at 13. That's 19 years of living inside a body that doesn't forgive shortcuts, doesn't forget stress, and doesn't care what your calendar looks like. In this episode I'm giving you the 10 lessons that mattered most — not just for diabetics, but for anyone who's tired of doing everything right and still feeling worse every year. We cover...

At 13 I was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes. And for years after that - without fully realising it - I used it as a reason to underperform. Less energy. Less ambition. Less belief that I could build something real. I cover: - Why having a harder situation is valid - and also not an excuse - The subtle difference between acknowledging your constraints and hiding behind them - What my T1D management...

We cover: - Cortisol Dominance - why more effort makes it worse - Blood Sugar Dysregulation - why your body can't access fat as fuel - Meta...

During stressful days, food often becomes reactive and hurts progress. Having only coffee and a snack for lunch is the best way to crave at night or the following days. That's why I break down the best nutrition structure for stressful workdays if your goal is better energy, focus, and easier fat loss. We cover: breakfast / lunch / dinner / snacks / cafés / meetings / events

“I eat healthy… so why is my belly still getting bigger?” First, small nutritional imbalances - slightly too many carbs and fats, slightly too little protein - add up over a decade. Second, modern life creates a constant stress load that raises cortisol and gradually slows metabolism. If you feel like you're doing everything right but your body isn’t responding anymore, this episode will help...

Most women don’t struggle with fat loss because they’re lazy. They struggle because their workout schedule is built on stress instead of structure. In this episode, I break down: How chronic high training volume raises cortisol long term The truth about “bulky” vs. “toned” Why muscle is essential for fat loss The ideal weekly structure for busy, high-performing women How to increase metabolic rate...

The busiest women often do everything “right.” They eat clean-ish, train & push through. And yet... belly fat won’t move. In this episode, I explain why. It’s usually not laziness. It’s not genetics. It’s stress load.

HIIT (high intensity interval training) is the most misunderstood concept in the fitness industry. In this episode, I break down why long cardio often backfires for fat loss, especially for busy, high-performing women, and why more effort doesn’t automatically mean better results.
